• Hi Alex!

    What is the animated typeface that appears in your promo that says "hello world". It's mostly yellow, white and black. I looked at all the animograhy ones, and couldn't find it. Is it from somewhere else?


    Thanks!

    Hi Ariel,
    This is Nexa Bold, which is a part of Big Pack of Elements:
    Great, thanks for that! So from what I read on videohive, it sounds like the big pack comes with its own lite version of font manager. If I purchase the big pack, will it bring a jsx that I can use to install that alphabet to the separate full size font manager purchase? Do you sell that jsx separately?
    Big Pack doesn't have a JSX version of Nexa Bold, but I guess we will release it in the coming future. Maybe even next week.

    Wow, that would be great! Thanks for the quick reply!
  • Working with the trial a couple of days now and I only have one question left. Is there a way to backup a created animated typeface? If so, how do you restore? Basically, I've made a couple of them, for example, the "fire" one in your tutorial but I can't figure out if I can back it up or not. Thanks again! AR

    You can save them as a regular AEP files.
  • Hi,

    My colleague and I both need this script. We're both working from home during the pandemic. Do we need to buy 1 licence each? Or does the floating licence cover our usage. We're not connected on a main local server but connected with the company DropBox.
    Thanks

  • Sorry to be asking this, but some of the fonts I have from Animography won't change colors using the controllers when I've installed them with Font Manager, eg. Moblio Regular. Others are fine. Purging the cache doesn't help. I suspect there is an easy fix that I'm overlooking. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks --Paul

    Hi Paul,

    Please, make sure that you are using the latest version of Mobilo. Also, try using JSX version of this animated typeface.
  • I have installed a trial version of font manager and have bought an Laser type jsx typeface. They are both installed in the scriptsUI panels. In after effects I have the script alert "Unable to find Typeface Folder for Laser Type." I've read that I need to install the jsx Typeface into the font manager library, but I dont seem to have one and there is no turtorial to show how to create one?

    Hi Rosanna, 
    Make sure that you have downloaded the latest 2.0 version of Font Manager.
    There, go to "Settings" tab and click "Install animated typeface", and choose the archive with Laser typeface.
    Then it should be available under the "Type" tab.

    Hi Eddie,
    You can do that right now. Just create a template and then replace the content of each of the compositions.
  • I've loaded a font and it appears in the list, but anytime I try to create some text, I just get question marks "????". I double checked that all the characters copied over, so I don't know what could be wrong.

    You are running the JSX typeface in a trial mode.
    Only "ABC" are available in the triabe mode.
    You need to activate the typeface.

    Hey Paul, I was just having that same issue with Moblio, and it seems the issue comes with pre-comping. So, you'll have to avoid placing the layers in any comps after creating.
  • Hi I have issues when I want to install animated typefaces from the Font Manager panel in AE. I choose my font (ZIP file) then I have an error message : "Could not find typeface in ZIP files..."

    Could you help me ?

    Thanks

    Hi Pierre 

    It seems like you are trying to install the TTF or OTF font instead of the animated typeface.

    Please, make sure that you are trying to install the animated typeface. You can also try to extract the files from the archive and instead of selecting the archive select the folder or main JSX file.

  • Could you please show us how to achieve step by step tutorials instead of fast pace final result by you? User should be known algoritham of how it works rather than you leave on us we already know what is in your brain.

    Hi,
    You can check the avialable tutorials here:
    Or you can sign-up for a course on how to create animated typefaces from our friends at Animography:
  • In the current edition of Font Manager there doesn't appear to be a controller to stagger the animation of the letters. Do we have to retime the timing of each letter on by hand now?
    Thanks,

    You can control it with this option:
    Select your controller, type the amount of frames you want to offset and then click on the icon.

  • Hi

    Hope you are well. I'm having some issues with Font Manager. Specifically AE keeps crashing every time I try to render. I am using AE 22.0 on Mac (2019 2.4 GHz 8-Core Intel Core i9).
    I have tried rendering direct from AE and also Media Encoder. Media Encoder presents an error message straight away. AE just freezes, it sometimes will render up to 80/90% but then freezes. 
    I am trying to export an alpha.
    I've tried clearing my Cache.
    Hope you can help.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    German font set is included in Font Manager. If you will need any additional glyph, you can easily add it during the creation of the animated typeface.

    For now, only manually or using the script.

    Hi Midori, looks like you are trying to type the text using the glyphs that are not available under the current typeface. If you are using the animated typefaces from Animography you can check which glyphs are available on the product's page.
  • Hello Alex! I'm considering buying Font Manager but I'm not sure it fills my current need.  I'm creating a prerendered frame by frame animated typeface [not shapes or masks]. Is it possible to convert them somehow and be compatible with font manager? I've searched online but i couldn't find anything related. Previously i've made them compatible with https://aescripts.com/characteristic/ but for some reason it's no longer available. By the way, i have to mention that i'm an author selling fonts from time to time.

    Thanks in advance.

    I have a non-official tutorial for that but I'd rather wouldn't post it publicly because it's a raw unedited video.

    Hi, if you mean to export the typeface as JSXBIN, you will need to use a compCode script:
    The instruction on how to convert the typeface to JSXBIN comes with comCode.
