What Font Library Does Figma Use?

Last updated on September 28, 2022 @ 7:52 pm

Figma is a vector graphics editor and design tool, which is primarily used by web designers and front-end developers. It has a web-based interface and can be used on any platform that supports a web browser, including Windows, macOS, and Linux.

Figma uses the same vector format as Adobe Illustrator and Sketch, which means your designs can be easily transferred between the three tools. Figma also has its own font library, which contains over 2,000 fonts that you can use for free in your designs.

The Figma font library is constantly expanding, and new fonts are added regularly. You can use any of the fonts in the library in your designs, and they will automatically be updated if they are changed or updated in the future. This means that you don’t have to worry about losing your work if a font is no longer available, or if it changes in a future update.

PRO TIP: Figma uses the Google Fonts library by default. This means that any text you add to your Figma file will use a font from the Google Fonts library unless you specify a different font.

While the Google Fonts library contains a large number of fonts, it is not an exhaustive list of all available fonts. If you need to use a font that is not in the Google Fonts library, you will need to upload the font file to your Figma file.

To use a font from the Figma library, simply select it from the list of available fonts in the text editor. You can also use the search bar to find specific fonts by name. Once you’ve found the perfect font for your design, simply click on the “Use” button to add it to your project.

Conclusion:

The Figma font library contains over 2,000 fonts that you can use for free in your designs. The library is constantly expanding, and new fonts are added regularly.
