Comment on Inkscape 1.3parent

Comments

I use nexusfont to manage my fonts.

Between google fonts and squirrel fonts there are thousands of fonts and styles.

Nexusfont lets me build sub-collections and then i can install only the fonts i want from the dialogue to keep my system from having a bloated fonts folder.

The drawback is having to reload inkscape to see the new fonts. The benefit is that loadtime is much faster when only select fonts from a much larger collection have been installed into the system.

I tried the font browser dialogue in inkscape and it was not on par with what I'm already doing. I also tried FontBase but was just not thrilled with the some features being paywalled behind a FontBase Awesome Subscription model. While nexusfont has less polish, it also has less B.S..
