About

FontBooth

Read full description

FontBooth is designed to provide fonts that have a high glyph coverage of CJK Unicode blocks, enabling you to continue working on documents on the go. FontBooth is not looking for eye-catching fonts, but rather focuses mainly on Hei, Yuan, Song, Ming, and Kai glyph CJK fonts. Although all fonts are available for personal or commercial use, there may be specific limitations for each font. If you intend to use them for other than document viewing or editing, please carefully examine the licenses. ### About custom fonts - Custom fonts can only be used by apps with custom font privileges. - Custom fonts are not accessible through the keyboard extension, even though the hosting application has been granted the font privilege.
