Browse by Fonts
Simplified font cards on the browse page when the grid view option is selected.
Let’s take a look at the features of the Browse section in greater detail:
Search results and settings toolbar
This view displays a list of font families from the Monotype Fonts library, arranged in rows with enhanced functionality. Each row includes the following features:
An icon indicating whether that font family is part of the standard Monotype Fonts inventory or comes from a library of third-party fonts uploaded by your Company Admin.
A pangram written in one of the styles in that font family, which you can edit by clicking inside the text input bar at the top of the families view
By default, the list of families is sorted by relevance, but you can also sort it by popularity, recency, and alphabetically in ascending or descending order.
Once you hover over the font card, you will be able to see the following action items:
Favorite: Select the heart icon to mark it as favorite
Add to: Add the selected font style to a font list, web project, or digital ad
Similar: Search for fonts that are similar to the one currently in focus
Pairs: Combines two or more fonts to create a harmonious and well-balanced design
View family: When you click on the view family icon, you will be redirected to its family details page, where you can test drive that font family, see all the styles and weights it contains, and review the character set it supports
Sync to Monotype App: Sync the selected font family via the Monotype App (clicking on the drop-down arrow icon also brings up the “Download & sync options" dialog)
Furthermore, clicking on a font family row launches quick view, presenting the list of styles available under the family, accompanied by the same set of actions as explained above.
Note: Images will be disabled while you type in the type tester. A tooltip will appear stating, Images have been turned off while you're testing the fonts.
