TypeShelf library with font list, search and Playfair Display specimen
The native Windows workspace. Example fonts shown.

A place for the fonts
you keep coming back to.

Windows fonts are detected automatically. Import a folder for the rest of your collection. See what every typeface looks like before you open your design app.

Collections keep a client project together. Tags make that one font easier to find. Identical files are skipped during import, and your original files stay untouched.

Guide

Your collection, ready
when your design app is.

Create an app rule once. TypeShelf watches the foreground application and temporarily activates the collection you chose.

App presets match executable names. Font menus vary by application version; you may need to reopen the document or app. This is not document-level missing-font detection.

A local library

Your fonts stay on your PC.

TypeShelf keeps its library and metadata locally. It does not upload fonts or collect app analytics. Temporary activation lasts while TypeShelf is open.
