Editors' Review
Many of us don't give much thought to fonts, aside from selecting our favorite from the drop-down menu of whatever we happen to be working on. For other people, however--graphic designers, Web designers, and general font nerds--fonts are serious business. NexusFont is a simple font manager that can help people keep their fonts organized and easy to browse.
- Simple Font Management: With NexusFont, you can load and manage fonts directly for your projects without installing them on your system.
- Efficient Organization: You can group your fonts, add folders to these groups, and organize your fonts into sets. This helps you find the fonts you need quickly.
- View Fonts Easily: Fonts that you load are available in all your programs while NexusFont is open. When you close NexusFont, these fonts are no longer available unless installed.
The tool lets you manage fonts by creating groups and adding folders with fonts to these groups. You can see fonts from selected folders or entire groups, which gives you flexibility in how you use your fonts.
NexusFont offers more than just basic management. It includes features that improve your experience and help you work more efficiently:
- Portable Use: You can use NexusFont on any Windows computer without installing it. This is perfect for people who work on different computers.
- Handle Fonts Easily: Installing and uninstalling fonts is straightforward with NexusFont. You can manage your system’s fonts without slowing it down by installing too many.
- Extra Tools: You can find and delete duplicate fonts, tag fonts for quick searches, and view all characters in a font with the character map feature.
The program's interface is plain and intuitive, with a handful of menus and buttons for easy navigation. The program automatically accesses and displays all fonts that are installed on your computer, and you can easily import new fonts as well. NexusFont is a great way to preview and compare fonts; the heart of the program is a scrollable list of fonts that displays whatever sample text you like. You can view the fonts in different colors, sizes, and styles, as well as turn antialiasing on and off. NexusFont also displays metadata--the font's version, foundry, and so on--and you can add your own tags to the fonts. Groups and sets let you organize fonts in ways that make sense to you, although we admit we were never entirely clear on what the difference was between the two; the program's online Help file doesn't go into much detail about this. Overall, we think that NexusFont is a great way to organize and preview fonts, especially for people who don't want to shell out big bucks for a font manager.
Bottom Line
NexusFont installs politely but leaves a folder behind upon removal. We recommend this program to everyone.
