Sharing Fonts with Other Users

Contents

    FontAgent® Sync lets you share and sync your fonts with other users in your workgroup.

    This page applies to FontAgent Sync Edition and not to the Standard (standalone) or Connected (server-connected) Editions of FontAgent.

    Making Fonts Available to Others

    To sync fonts with other users in your workgroup, follow these steps:

    1. Select the font or set you wish to share.
    2. Open the Share menu and click the Share Font or Share Set command.

    … or just right-click the font or set and choose Share.

    FontAgent then uploads the selected fonts and associated tags to the cloud where other users in your FontAgent Sync group can view and download the fonts.

    When other users in your FontAgent Sync workgroup share fonts, FontAgent uploads them to the cloud. To access those fonts, follow these setps:

    1. Select the Share > Sync with Server menu command.
    2. Click the Shared set in the Sets Sidebar.
    3. FontAgent displays the shared fonts in its Main Window.
    4. Select, view and activate those fonts just like any other font in your local FontAgent catalog.

    Please respect the license requirements of your various fonts. To remain in compliance with your license terms, please be sure you have licensed enough seats for the fonts you share with others.

    Unsharing Fonts on FontAgent Sync

    … or just right-click the font or set and choose Unshare.

    When you unshare fonts in your FontAgent Sync workgroup, the fonts become unavailable to everyone in your Sync workgroup. To once again make unshared fonts available to your workgroup, right-click the fonts and select Share from the pop-up menu.
