Connect Fonts

About

Monotype Connect is a platform for managing, licensing, and governing fonts across teams, partners, and production environments. It offers a centralized font library with team access, smart search and tagging, and the ability to import fonts from an existing library. Its license management tools track usage and reporting, and its project risk scanning checks Adobe project files for licensing issues before publishing. Plans include Monotype Connect, Monotype Connect Pro, and Monotype Connect for Agencies, priced per user annually.

The platform integrates with Adobe creative tools such as Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, InCopy, and After Effects, where fonts auto-activate. It also connects with Microsoft Office, Google Docs, Microsoft Azure/Entra ID, and Okta for single sign-on and provisioning, and supports deployment on macOS and Windows. Font sources include the Monotype Library, Adobe Fonts, and Google Fonts, and the platform provides web font implementation with domain configuration and hosting.

According to the website, Monotype Connect is meant to bring clarity, compliance, and speed to typographic operations, replacing fragmented font libraries, spreadsheet-based license tracking, and scattered font purchases. The site states that most teams are up and running within days, with guided setup, migration support, and training included.
