Managing Font Categories

Pagesmith contains a database of the most common fonts on the Mac, including the fonts installed with major software suites. When Pagesmith starts, it looks up the fonts on your system and categorizes them based on the information in its database.

You can modify the database using the Font Categories tab in Preferences. You can enable or disable a category; add and delete categories; add and remove font families from categories; and revert to the original database.

Pagesmith works with Apple font collections. Font collections are managed using Apple’s Font Book utility.

The Font Categories tab shows a list of all the font categories, a list of font families in the currently selected category, and a list of all font families on your Mac.
