Monotype
(Nasdaq: TYPE) announced it will take advantage of Apple’s new Custom
Font feature announced at WWDC
2019. Monotype will deliver a collection from its extensive font
library to iPhone and iPad users for use across the system, through an
app created by Monotype and available for download through the App Store
later this year.
Upon downloading the newest version of iOS available later this year,
users ranging from casual font fans to creative professionals, will for
the first time, receive access to the fonts they want across iPhone and
iPad apps, all through the App Store. In addition to new font licenses,
users will be able to sync fonts they have already licensed from
Monotype’s ecommerce channel, to their devices.
“As a leader in font technology, expertise and inventory, we are excited
to be providing fonts to more users through the App Store,” said Steve
Martin, CTO of Monotype. “As more and more creative work migrates to
mobile devices and tablets, we see great benefit to the creative
professional community by making our vast font library accessible to
them across all devices and apps.”
More information will be shared later this year with the availability
of iOS.
