Share your font library with others

You can share a RightFont library with your team by saving it in a shared folder managed by a cloud storage service such as Dropbox, Google Drive, or Box.

Everyone with access to the shared folder can view, install, and use the fonts in the shared library, making it easy to collaborate and maintain consistent font usage across your team.

Create a Shared Font Library

  1. Open RightFont on your Mac.
  2. Click the + button in the sidebar and choose New Library.
  1. In the library creation dialog, click Where and select a shared folder from your cloud storage service.
  1. Save the library to the shared folder.

RightFont will automatically sync the library through your cloud storage service, so changes are shared with all collaborators.

Tip: If you have not set up a cloud storage service yet, install and configure a client such as Dropbox, Google Drive, or Box before creating the shared library.

Keep Libraries in Sync

After the shared library is created, RightFont automatically syncs changes for all collaborators, including:

  • Adding or removing fonts
  • Creating, renaming, or deleting font lists
  • Updating library organization

This ensures everyone always has access to the latest version of the shared font library in real time.

Share an existing font library

You can share an existing RightFont library by moving it to a shared folder managed by a cloud storage service such as Dropbox, Google Drive, or Box.

  1. In the sidebar, right-click the font library you want to share.
  2. Choose Move Library from the context menu.
  1. Select a shared folder accessible to your collaborators, then confirm the move.

Open a shared font library

To open a font library shared by others in RightFont:

  1. In the macOS menu bar, choose File > Open Library.
  2. Select the shared font library file from your shared folder or cloud storage location.
  3. Click Add Library.

The shared library will be added to the RightFont sidebar, allowing you to browse and use the shared fonts.

Notes for Box Users

For Box users, there are certain limitations when it comes to saving Font Libraries directly into a Box folder. However, you can use the following workaround to overcome this limitation:

  1. Create an empty Font Library within RightFont.
  2. Open the Box.com website in your browser.
  3. Drag the Font Library file from RightFont to the Box.com website to initiate the upload process.
  4. Once the upload is complete, you will notice that the Font Library file appears within your Box folder.

Tip: This workaround is necessary for the initial upload of the Font Library to Box. However, for your teammates or collaborators, they can directly use the Font Library without following this process. Once you have shared the Box folder containing the Font Library with your teammates, they can easily import the Font Library by double-clicking on it.
