However, if you ever try to collect Adobe Fonts font files when using Illustrator and InDesign’s ‘Package’ feature, you’ll notice that you can’t. And it all has to do with whether your layout includes typefaces that are from the Adobe Fonts service that’s part of you Creative Cloud subscription.Īdobe Fonts allows you access to thousands of fonts from dozens of independent typefoundries, and they can be conveniently activated when needed. The first part is fairly easy to answer, although you may not necessarily like the answer itself. Which font managers will help me handle a large library of typefaces?.How can I guarantee that all the fonts used in an InDesign layout are collected when using the ‘File > Package’ command?.Let’s break your question into two parts:
#Delete fonts fontbase manual
Since it's new on the block, I would be concerned about its lack of long-term experience in the field.Īs far as a manual approach, many of the font managers have a utility to detect fonts in a particular document, then create a Set you can load/unload as desired, and Export as a ZIP/whatever. FontBase came up, but I haven't tried it, mostly because I read it was having issues with M1 Monterey (but then, they all were in some way). That being said, it has pretty much non-existent technical support, and updates for new versions of apps come very slowly, and without any notice, but they do show up eventually.īecause of that, only recently have I been looking at new alternatives. then FontExplorer, which is what I am still using and have good luck with over the years. I personally have used several Font Managers over the years, and most come with auto-activation plug-ins for the major apps. Cloud fonts cannot be packaged no matter what (and is unnecessary anyway)
Packaging the fonts is an InDesign function, and it will only package fonts that are legally able to be.
