How Do I Change the Default Font in Figma?

If you’re a designer, you know that the font you use to display your text is one of the most important factors in designing a successful design. The right font can help to create the perfect look and feel for your project, while the wrong font can make it look unprofessional.

Fortunately, Figma makes it easy to change the default font for any project you’re working on.

Figma offers a wide selection of fonts that are available by default. To change the font for your project, go to File > Preferences > Fonts in the top menu bar. Here you’ll be able to see all of Figma’s default fonts and choose one that suits your preferences.

Once you’ve selected a font from Figma’s selection, click on ‘Apply’ and it will become your new default font for future projects. You can also add custom fonts to your project by clicking on ‘+’ and selecting a font from outside Figma’s library.

You can also customize each individual text element within your design with its own unique font style. To do this, simply select any text element in your file and open up its Text Properties Panel by pressing ‘T’ or clicking on its icon in the right-hand toolbar.

Here you’ll be able to choose from all of Figma’s available fonts as well as any custom fonts that you’ve added to your project. You can also adjust individual settings such as weight (bold/regular), size, letter spacing, and line height.

Conclusion:

Changing the default font for a project in Figma is an easy process that takes just a few clicks of a button. From there, it’s possible to customize each individual text element with its own unique style using Font Properties Panel. With these tools at hand, designers can easily create beautiful designs that stand out from their competitors.
