About

Fontbridge

Features
Read full description

Fontbridge is a focused tool for installing, checking, and managing fonts on iOS and iPadOS. You can import TTF, OTF, TTC, or ZIP font files, quickly generate iOS font configuration profiles, and install fonts on your device for use in Pages, Keynote, Numbers, Word, PowerPoint, Excel, and other apps that support installed system fonts. Whether you are writing documents, creating presentations, working with multilingual text, or making sure fonts appear correctly in designs, course materials, contracts, or resumes, Fontbridge helps you clearly see which fonts are available and which ones are missing. Key Features: ・Import TTF, OTF, TTC, or ZIP font files ・Generate and install iOS font configuration profiles ・Manage imported font files ・Check which fonts are used in your documents ・See whether required fonts are available on the current device ・Works on iPhone and iPad ・No account required ・No subscription required Fontbridge does not change the system-wide interface font, and it does not force all apps to use custom fonts. Installed fonts become available in apps that support system-installed fonts or custom font selection. Useful for: ・Using specific fonts in Pages, Keynote, and Numbers ・Editing font-sensitive files in Word, PowerPoint, and Excel ・Checking documents for missing fonts ・Working with Chinese, English, Japanese, Korean, and other multilingual layouts ・Preparing a reliable font environment for writing, studying, office work, and design Fontbridge does one thing: it makes font installation and font checking on iPhone and iPad clearer, easier, and more controllable. Note: Font availability depends on iOS / iPadOS and each app’s own font support. Some apps may need to be restarted before newly installed fonts appear.
