Background

The process of retrieving fonts and accessing licensing details forms a critical part of the overall user experience. As such, focusing on improving this particular aspect was a high-priority item on our redesign agenda. We had a keen understanding of the need to make this process as seamless as possible to maintain and enhance user satisfaction levels.

Approach

After the Product Manager outlined the problem and briefed the project, I iterated a number of solutions and landed on an expandable table to solve the problem. This table uses the concept of progressive disclosure to prevent users from feeling overwhelmed by the information. We created it using the comprehensive design system specifically created for the redesign. This component is designed to contain a wealth of details and provide links to other relevant user account pages.

Impact

The end result of our redesign was a sleek, efficient interface that greatly enhanced the font downloading process. The updated design introduced a more organized labeling system, simpler linking, and a clearer "My Fonts" download and "My Orders" page. With careful attention to detail, we developed a system that not only made navigation easier but also streamlined the font file download process.

This solution not only enables individual weight download but also provides detailed and easily accessible information about the various license types. Furthermore, this design was seamlessly integrated into the "My Orders" section to ensure a cohesive user experience.
