Select → Same → Font
This feature has been implemented in Adobe Illustrator 2022, so the plugin doesn’t offer it there, but you can still use it with older versions of Illustrator.
This long–requested feature of Adobe Illustrator is now covered by Ai Toolbox.
Simply select text object and click Select menu in Illustrator. Then click Same submenu there and you will see some extra options added at the bottom:
There are three options you can use:
- Font Family — select all text elements having the same font family;
- Font Family and Size — select all text elements with the same font family and font size;
- Font Family, Size and Everything — same as above plus some character styles and paragraph formatting options should also match.
This tool lets you easily selecting multiple text objects sharing the same font.
Best Of All
Best of all, this is a free feature of Ai Toolbox and it doesn’t require you to have a license. Select as much as you want for free :)
