    Font management - Mac vs. Windows

    I think this is not the right forum to ask this question but if by device you mean which platform, then definitely macOS is better than Windows. Glyphs, FontLab and RoboFont are the most popular pieces of type-design software nowadays.

    Font management - Mac vs. Windows

    The native macOS app Font Book does a reasonable job of font management, if you do not have extremely serious font management issues. It allows you to create as many font libraries as you wish that you can activate/deactivate to avoid font conflicts. To create a Library you do not need to...
