I would never have guessed this setting existed – especially since other software uses fonts just fine without it. Maybe I’m dull, but a pic like this one above with the big red arrow would have been worth 1,000 words. I suspect that this same thing will work for other font manager software.
Yes, it is that easy - the trick is knowing that such a thing exists and where it is located. Here’s the simple solution: Look in the Inkscape Preferences menu under Text and in the “Font directories” section, add in the path of the directory that holds your FontBase fonts. Free is a compelling price.īut I need my fonts to work, or it isn’t worth anything! With the newly released Inkscape 1.0, I felt it was time to try out Inkscape again - I’ve always liked how it was trying to provide all the functionality of CorelDraw (without the huge price tag). Switching to a font manager solved that and allowed me to access my fonts as needed in software like Affinity Designer, but I couldn’t get them to work in Inkscape. I use way too many fonts to just “install them all into Windows” without having problems.
I finally solved how to get FontBase fonts to work with Inkscape - and potentially fonts that are managed with a different font manager.
