HOW TO INSTALL FONTS TO PROCREATE
How to install fonts using your iPad and Procreate app.
Download the app “iFont” from the app store to your iPad.
Airdrop your .OTF font file (UNZIPPED) to your iPad.
Airdrop will pop up asking you where to open the file. Click “iFont”
If you’ve never installed a font before, it will open up the “Recents” folder where you will see your font. Click on it to download it to your device.
On the left hand side of the screen, you will see your font with the button “INSTALL” next to it. If you’ve never installed a font, click Install, then click “continue” after reading the terms.
Next it will ask for your permission. Click “Allow”. Then click “close" and then “cancel”.
Exit out of iFont, and go to your iPad settings.
In your settings, you should see a red notification. Mine is under “More For Your iPad”. What you are looking for is “Profile Downloaded”.
On Profile Downloaded, click “View Profile”. You will see the font name you are trying to install. Click “install” at the top right. You may have to enter your passcode here.
I get a warning at this step. I go ahead and click “install” twice. Then “done”.
Now open your Procreate app and create a new document. Go to Actions>Add Text.
Type your word(s). Softly tap twice on the word to highlight it, and the font menu will pop up right above it. Scroll to the title of your font, and click on it. If you don’t see the font, you may need to re-start your Procreate app.
You have successfully installed a font to your iPad!
Happy creating!
