Maybe I’m dull, or maybe you found this post because you have the same problem and that pic above will be your AHA!Īlso note in the image above: I keep my fonts in a OneDrive folder.

I have no idea how long the solution has been this simple, but I know I’ve been looking for it for years.

I would never have guessed this setting existed – especially since other software uses fonts just fine without it. Maybe I’m dull, but a pic like this one above with the big red arrow would have been worth 1,000 words. I suspect that this same thing will work for other font manager software. Yes, it is that easy - the trick is knowing that such a thing exists and where it is located. Here’s the simple solution: Look in the Inkscape Preferences menu under Text and in the “Font directories” section, add in the path of the directory that holds your FontBase fonts. Free is a compelling price.īut I need my fonts to work, or it isn’t worth anything! With the newly released Inkscape 1.0, I felt it was time to try out Inkscape again - I’ve always liked how it was trying to provide all the functionality of CorelDraw (without the huge price tag). Switching to a font manager solved that and allowed me to access my fonts as needed in software like Affinity Designer, but I couldn’t get them to work in Inkscape. I use way too many fonts to just “install them all into Windows” without having problems.

:( No joy.I finally solved how to get FontBase fonts to work with Inkscape - and potentially fonts that are managed with a different font manager. I've almost always put the taskbar to the left, vertically on my screen. I'm afraid getting to the Windows icon is problematic for me. I needed to do that for a different reason: I had a bum font, and Xara kept crashing when my cursor came close to the font name on the drop-down list: go figure. The easiest/quickest way to get to the desktop in windows 10, is to right click the windows icon at the lower left, and choose desktop from the bottom of the list.Excellent advice on the disabling the Font cache. Apparently you will have to disable it with every major windows update. To speed Nexusfont up substantially, you have to disable the Windows Font Cache Service.

In Windows 10 something happened to the font caching in the Anniversary update. So Nexus font is for combing through my NON-INSTALLED font collection. My installed fonts are easily managed within Xara, as typically all I need to know is what a desired font looks like.

I typically only use a Font Manager to find a particular font so that I can install it. Most font managers I've used in the past do not work in tandem with an application. FontBase uninstalled.Įxcept for being able to duck out of Xara and install fonts, OoG, NexusFont doesn't interact with Xara at all. Not sure what FontBase's features are anymore, but the deal-breaker was that it appears full-screen at my pathetic 1280 × 1024 screen resolution. OOg, what I like most about it, is once you're loaded (or the program is loaded), you have a number of options right where one might expect them: install/uninstall, properties/charmap when you right-click over a font sample, color font size, preview sentence easy to get to. Almond! That is an exaggerated number, I hope! If this is any gauge, 45 typefaces took about 18 seconds to load, about 3 per second, which must be painfully slow for all your 11,000 fonts, Mr.

I've got it to launch and load 45 typefaces right now that I'm evaluating by comparison for a gig.

I don't have that problem, though, because by default, I don't ask for Installed fonts to be displayed. Don't like it at all - Not can't use it, it's quite useable, just don't like it.True: NexusFont takes longer than one would wish for installed fonts to be enumerated. I've tried FONTBASE twice now, and uninstalled it twice. The ONLY downside is having to wait while it loads 11,000 fonts.
