Sharing Fonts with Other Users

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

FontAgent allows you to share and sync your fonts with other users who belong to your FontAgent Sync Edition workgroup.

Making Fonts Available to Others in FontAgent Sync

To share 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 to the cloud where other users in your Sync group can view and download the fonts.

Using Fonts Shared by Others in FontAgent Sync

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

  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 shared fonts just like any other font in your local FontAgent catalog
        

Observe Software and Licensing Requirements
Please respect and conform to license requirements for your various fonts. To remain in compliance with the terms of your licenses, please make sure you have licensed enough seats for the fonts you share with others.

Unsharing Fonts in FontAgent Sync

To unshare fonts you have previously shared with other users in your workgroup, follow these steps:

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

     ... 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 the group. To once again make unshared fonts available to your workgroup, right-click the fonts and select Share from the pop-up menu.
