You can push a font to managed iOS devices by defining a configuration and applying it to the relevant labels. The font configuration is sent to devices upon the next sync with Ivanti EPMM.

After the new font arrives, device users will be able to select the font if they wish. You can create additional font configurations to push more fonts to devices. Each configuration includes one font.

**Note**:

- Font configurations are not encrypted.
- Large font files can have unpredictable performance impact on Ivanti EPMM. The performance impact is due to Ivanti EPMM requiring multiple device check-ins to apply the font to all devices. The performance impact depends on the size of the font file and on the number of devices impacted. To avoid performance impact, manage your labels to limit the number of devices impacted by a configuration with a large font file.
