The larger the organization, the more difficult the task – deploying a font to tens of employees is much easier than to thousands of employees. Font distribution is a task that requires a huge amount of time, resources and workflow planning, particularly from IT teams. For bespoke fonts to be used, they must be installed on the device of every employee in an organization. Once a company has bought or designed its selected font, the next challenge is ensuring the font is used. That’s especially true if they are not using typical system fonts or have a customized font list.įont management Difficulties of managing and distributing fonts

The potentially bad news is that an organization can run into brand recognition issues if employees are not using (or are unable to use) the right font. The good news is that graphic designers, marketing teams, and content creators typically have a wide selection of installed fonts within the font library on their Macs, PCs, word processing software, and graphic design software (i.e., Adobe Photoshop, InDesign, Illustrator, QuarkXPress, etc.). This offers both benefits and difficulties: organizations now need to consider how their font moves in space, and how this is represented digitally.įont management Who uses font management software & why is it important?
