Awesome seat management

The number of currently active and maximum available Awesome seats will be displayed in your profile menu (top left corner of the window). If the maximum of available seats is exceeded, the oldest logged in station will be logged out automatically to make room for the new login.

If you own a font foundry you can also join for free and make your fonts visible to thousands of FontBase users worldwide! Just send us an email.

The page has a new layout and displaying a lot of glyphs works much faster now. We added grouping by Unicode blocks with the ability to expand/collapse each block. For Awesome users, we've added a search field to search glyphs by Unicode names. The total number of font glyphs is now also displayed at the top.

Updated Waterfall page

Text blocks for preview now use more consistent size scale and the font size in pixels is displayed on the right side of each block. Variable fonts controls are now located at the top of the page to get more horizontal preview space.
