Installing OmaFont

The install steps and the latest release are on GitHub. It installs like any other package, and no fonts are touched.

0:30

The window

The sidebar, the family list, the view in the middle, the Info pane and the status bar.

0:37

Finding a font

Narrow the list by where fonts come from, what they look like, the script they set, or a few letters of a name.

0:32

Looking at type

A specimen of one family, every family as a grid or a list, or every character a font has.

0:27

Comparing families

Up to six families stacked, the same words in each, to choose between them.

0:32

The Info pane

What the font's own files say: who made it, its version, its licence, the languages it covers and every style.

0:33

Installing fonts

Drop a font, a folder or a downloaded archive on the window, check it, and install it. No password needed.

0:33

Deactivating fonts

Hide a font from every app without deleting it, system fonts included, and bring it back whenever you like.

0:30

Tags, stars and notes

Mark families with your own words, star the ones you reach for, and keep a note of why you have them.

0:51

Collections

Group families by hand for a project, or with rules that keep the group up to date for you.

0:25

Duplicates and tidying up

Find the same font installed twice, OTF and TTF copies side by side, and files that fail their checks, and settle each one.

0:30

Validate, export and remove

Check a family's files, copy them out, print a specimen, or remove a family you no longer need.

0:19

Your terminal font

Pick a monospace family and make it the font of every terminal, the way Omarchy expects.

0:34

The command line

The same engine with no window: list, inspect, install, validate, deactivate and export from a terminal or a script.

Keyboard shortcuts

Everything OmaFont does from the keyboard, and where to find the list.
