Assign keyword tags to fonts and sets to classify them by project, appearance, job numbers, clients… however you want. Create tag-based Smart Sets to preview, compare and activate associated fonts easily. And when you share your fonts with other FontAgent Sync or Server users, you share their tags as well — no extra steps required.

Nested sets are sharable, so when you share a parent set with other FontAgent Sync and Server users, FontAgent shares the set definitions as well as the fonts in the parent and all its child subsets.

Fonts activated in Monotype and Adobe Fonts appear automatically in FontAgent and work just like all your other fonts. A goldmine of online fonts is at your fingertips… and in your workflow.
