Coming soon Windows

FontBastion

Preview, install, group and compare fonts; track the licences.

What it is

FontBastion in a paragraph

FontBastion shows every font on the PC and in your font folders with your own sample text, installs and uninstalls without a restart, groups fonts into sets you can activate per project, finds duplicates and near-duplicates, and keeps the licence file next to each family so you know what you may use commercially.

Planned for the first release

  • Preview installed and uninstalled fonts with your own text
  • Install, uninstall and activate sets per project
  • Find duplicate and broken fonts; compare two faces side by side
  • Licence tracking: attach the licence to the family and search by it
  • Details: glyph coverage, languages, variable axes, file health
  • Undo for every install and removal

This page describes what we intend to build. There is nothing to download yet, and we do not take pre-orders. When FontBastion is ready it will be listed as available on the products page. Have a job in mind for it? Tell us through the feedback form.
