Typeface is a new kind of font manager for Mac. It helps you pick the perfect font by focusing on quick and accurate font previews. Silky smooth browsing & detailed comparisons make Typeface an indispensible tool when you’re designing
sexy typography for a new logo, website or app.
By the way: did I mention it is only 10 bucks on the App Store? That’s right: a font manager does not need to be expensive to be awesome :)

Obviously — what else should it feature? Browse swiftly through installed fonts or load custom directories, with live customization of preview text and size.
Streamlined font selection
The Quick Collection enables a handy workflow for picking the perfect font:
- Browse through your catalog and drag candidate fonts you like into the Quick Collection
- Review & refine the selection by eliminating fonts
- Only the best font survives
Detailed characters
View all the Unicode characters that are supported in a font. You can even compare them with the characters of another font to see the small — and big — differences.
Typography by night
Yes, there is nothing wrong with having a Frutiger afterimage burned on your retinas all week, but sometimes you just want to enjoy your collection without ruining your eyes.
Designed for designers
Do the current font managers for OSX make you sad? Do you hate complicated and clunky software that does a million things, but not one thing good? So do I: picking fonts should be fun :)
