Syncing desktop fonts to your machines

What is SkyFonts?
Developed by Monotype, SkyFonts is a patent-pending technology that allows you to temporarily install desktop fonts and sync them on up to five of your workstations. A first-of-its-kind type solution, SkyFonts is integrated into leading type providers such as Fonts.com and Google Fonts. Paired with these services, SkyFonts provides effortless access to thousands of quality typefaces to browse, try, and install right at your fingertips.

Running as a lightweight utility in the background of your Mac or PC, when a font is installed through SkyFonts it becomes available to all of your applications just like a typical desktop font. When the time period is up, SkyFonts removes the font from your system. No hassle of installing or managing multiple font files — we automatically take care of it for you in the background, letting you focus on your designs instead of worrying about font management.

Don't wait, start enjoying the power and ease of use that SkyFonts provides!

  • Why did you change the rental model?
    With this change we'll now be able to extend the benefits of SkyFonts to additional platforms, as well as take advantage of the robust font discovery capabilities that our partner sites feature. You'll be able to find type, get type, and use type with as little hassle as possible.
