"Font Book - Does the Job"
2.5/5
What do you like best about Font Book?

I like that it contains all my fonts in one spot. That makes it easy to see what I have and what types or styles I may be missing. It also has a lot of room for storage so I don't need to worry about going overboard. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Font Book?

There isn't too much that I openly dislike about it. However, I think it could be re-designed to have a more aesthetic appeal. It seems to be very standard and a little boring. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Consumer use"
5/5
What do you like best about Font Book?

Font book is easy to use on my Mac. I really like how easy it is to find information online about how to use font book. These days, it is important to create interesting documents, so having more fonts to use is critical. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Font Book?

I wish Font Book had a GUI that was different from the GUI for the Mac Finder application. Sometimes I get confused about whether I'm working in Finder or Font Book, and I think a lot more people would use Font Book if it had a more modern GUI. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easy way to get to the fonts I need for design"
5/5
What do you like best about Font Book?

I like the way you categorize the fonts and use each of them, it groups the fonts but you can also see the extra extend them for your design needs, this is the only font fold I use. I am satisfied with it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Font Book?

I do not have any complaints about this, because it keeps all my fonts in one location, I think this works well also because I only use apple and it flows well with all of my programs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Easy to view all the Fonts installed on my computer, in one place. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It has some quirks - like different User profiles or something. I'm never sure where to install the font, so I end up installing it in all locations as a fail safe. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"It is easy to use and best experience."
5/5
What do you like best about Font Book?

Installing fonts is very easy and fun experience I feel. I never had any difficulty installing fonts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Font Book?

Initially I didn't know where to find Fonta folder. I never thought it would be under Applications folder. It is a bit of learning curve but once you know then you will not have problem finding it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Necessary To Use Sometimes But Clunky"
3/5
What do you like best about Font Book?

I like the ability to batch turn on and off fonts by grouping them by categories. It makes it easier to have the right fonts accessible for the type of project you're creating. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Font Book?

It's fairly resource-intensive for some reason. Whenever I use Font Book, my computer fans start running and the computer sounds like it's about to take off; also, my other programs slow down. Also, with Adobe CC Fonts, it is making Font Book a little less relevant since most fonts are now activated through Adobe and not stored locally on the computer.

"Font Book for mac is easy to use and user friendly to see all your font faces"
4/5
What do you like best about Font Book?

Font Book is an easy drag and drop application that also allows you to see the font faces in real time. Makes it very easy for you to choose type faces for your design projects Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Font Book?

The organization of all the fonts could be a little better. Right now you need to be able to categorize everything in the side bar but it can get unruly when you have a bunch of different categories Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"So Simple and Awesome...but that Noto Sans Font tho!"
4/5
What do you like best about Font Book?

The simplicity of Font Book is what is most helpful. I can drag and drop the font into Font Book, and it is automatically available for use in the applications on my computer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Font Book?

The only problem with Font Book is that the Noto Sans font has 60 versions (yep, I counted), and there is no ability to remove this font even though I have never uploaded it. One can imagine where this becomes a problem on the drop-down font menu when working in Illustrator or Photoshop. It is very frustrating and time-consuming. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
