Richard S. Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 Hi everyone. Slightly off-topic, but does anyone know how to uninstall and install fonts on an iPad? I can’t seem to find any relevant information. Thank you all in advance. Quote High-End Photographic Prints Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, just to clarify; are you referring to within Designer or just on your iPad in general?

Richard S. Posted July 24, 2018 Author Share Posted July 24, 2018 In general really. I know how to add fonts in photo and Designer, but no idea how to uninstall from iOS in general. Quote High-End Photographic Prints Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Dan C Posted July 24, 2018 Staff Share Posted July 24, 2018 No problem! As far as I know there's no native font library that can be accessed on iOS and no ability to natively install fonts. Most websites recommend font installer apps such as iFont or Anyfont but I've not used any of these personally. Once your fonts are installed, you can view and delete them from your iPad through iOS settings, under Settings>General>Profiles. Any installed fonts will show here and can be removed from the system.

Richard S. Posted July 24, 2018 Author Share Posted July 24, 2018 Thanks, however on iOS 11, there is no profile section in Settings > General?? Quote High-End Photographic Prints Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Dan C Posted July 24, 2018 Staff Share Posted July 24, 2018 Apologies, the 'Profiles' option only shows if you have profiles installed! For example the iPad I'm using is enrolled in the iOS 12 beta and therefore I have an iOS Beta Software Profile which I can remove, but without any profile the option is hidden.

I use AnyFont and the ‘Install on iPad’ buttons which are displayed on the individual typeface pages on Font Squirrel. Both seem to work very smoothly.

That’s very interesting, Dan, but it seems an odd thing for Apple to have done! Anyway, if @DesignMeister installs the configuration profile for a font such as this one, he’ll be able to access the feature.

I wasn't aware you could install fonts from a browser... learn something new every day!
