Creative Professionals Can Now Upload Font
Inventories within Mosaic, Offering a Single, Centralized Platform
for Font Discovery, Collaboration and Management
Monotype (Nasdaq: TYPE) today announced enhancements to its
Mosaic® platform, transforming how creative professionals for
enterprises and agencies centralize the management of their font
collections. Mosaic, Monotype’s cloud-based font discovery,
collaboration and management solution, now enables users to upload
non-Monotype desktop fonts within the platform, creating a more
flexible and enterprise-ready way to discover, design and deploy
projects across their creative networks.

Teams that upload third-party inventory will experience the
discovery, collaboration and user management benefits of Mosaic
just as they do with Monotype’s own font inventory, without the
need to switch between multiple applications. While many
third-party fonts can be deployed within Mosaic, the ability to use
the functionality is subject to individual third-party license
agreements and any usage restrictions.
“Publicis services a global network of prestigious and diverse
advertising, public relations, media, healthcare and digital
marketing agencies, posing a significant design challenge for
designers to access the assets we need and collaborate across
teams,” said David Plavin, Global Architect, Creative and
Production Systems at Publicis Re:Sources. “Mosaic allows us to
easily search for the right fonts for our projects, and the added
ability to upload our complete library of fonts will improve
collaboration and font management. These capabilities are a great
leap forward, and will provide significant benefits to our
worldwide team of designers.”
Additional enhancements to Mosaic include:
- A desktop app for Windows and Mac
systems that allows designers to install and immediately design
with any font within Mosaic, including third-party fonts, with a
single click of the mouse;
- An improved navigation experience that
simplifies search, collaboration and administrative functions;
- Two new customizable user roles, which
give enterprises greater flexibility in assigning access and
editing capabilities; and
- An in-product Help Center designed to
make it easier to navigate various features within the
product.
“Enterprises and agencies are pushing themselves creatively to
differentiate their brands and stay ahead of the competition, which
means that they are continuously experimenting with new designs to
set themselves apart,” said Brett Zucker, CMO at Monotype. “Pulling
in and deploying fonts from a range of disparate solutions can add
weeks to a project timeline and introduce unnecessary complexity
and risk to the creative process. Mosaic solves for that with a
centralized solution for teams to upload all of their desktop font
inventory, discover and experiment with new fonts, collaborate
effortlessly, and access Monotype’s vast type expertise.”
