Seeing companies design their own custom typefaces that work alongside the brand&#8217;s aesthetics, we took the opportunity to provide our users with as many possibilities as we can when it comes to fonts.<\/i><\/p>\n<p>Now, we\u2019re happy to break the good news: from now on, every font installed on your computer is going to be available and ready for use inside the UXPin desktop app. <\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ve kicked this off because we know that unlimited possibilities when it comes to fonts is absolutely key to designers&#8217; workflow. We want to ensure that your creativity will not be limited and that you can consistently use your company\u2019s assigned fonts.<\/p>\n<h2>How it works<\/h2>\n<p>Apart from online libraries Google Fonts, Adobe Fonts (formerly Typekit), and uploading your own custom fonts to UXPin, we give you <b>access to all fonts which are already in your system<\/b>. In other words: <\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>No more limitations related to font uploads and integrations with online libraries. Our desktop app will now&nbsp;list all the fonts in your system and make them available inside the UXPin editor.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<li>You can use fonts that have pretty strict limitations, such as Apple&#8217;s San Francisco which (currently) comes only in the iOS version and not the web version.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Pro-tips to remember<\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;1. If you want to share a preview of your prototype with someone, make sure they have the font you used inside the editor on their computer. To do that, you can:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Send the file to the recipient of the preview link and make sure they install it.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Thanks to that, the design is going to render correctly and they will see things as you\u2019ve designed them. In case the recipient doesn&#8217;t have it installed, we will replace the font with Arial and inform them about it.<\/p>\n<p>2. Also, you must use the UXPin desktop app to avoid browser limitations &#8211; browsers don&#8217;t have access to the list of font files installed on your computer.<\/p>\n<section class=\"uxpin-trial-widget\"><h2>Join the world's best designers who&nbsp;use UXPin.<\/h2><span class=\"white-info\">Sign up for a free trial.<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.uxpin.com\/sign-up\" class=\"btn btn-flat sign-up-btn white\">Try it for free!<\/a><\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The role of typography in design is enormous &#8211; that goes without saying.
