How Can I See Fonts in Figma?

Last updated on September 28, 2022 @ 11:51 pm

Designers often need to work with different fonts when creating designs in Figma. While Figma does have a built-in font management system, it can be difficult to see all the available fonts at a glance. Luckily, there are a few ways to view all the fonts in Figma, and even style text using different fonts.

One way to view all the fonts in Figma is to use the Fonts menu. To access the Fonts menu, click the Text tool in the toolbar, then click the Fonts drop-down menu in the top-left corner of the interface.

This will open a list of all the fonts available in Figma. You can also use the search bar to find specific fonts.

Another way to view all the fonts in Figma is to use the Glyphs panel. To access the Glyphs panel, click the Text tool in the toolbar, then click the Glyphs icon in the top-right corner of the interface.

PRO TIP: If you are trying to view fonts in Figma and are having difficulty, be aware that there is currently a known issue with the font preview feature in Figma. The issue may cause some fonts to not appear when previewing them in Figma.

This will open a panel with all the available glyphs for each font. You can also use this panel to style text using different fonts.

To style text using different fonts, first select the text you want to style. Then, in the Fonts drop-down menu or Glyphs panel, click the font you want to use.

The selected text will now be styled with that font. You can also change the font size and other properties by clicking the Text tool in the toolbar and adjusting the settings in the top-right corner of the interface.

Figma is a great design tool that offers a lot of flexibility when it comes to working with different fonts. By using either the Fonts menu or Glyphs panel, you can easily view all the available fonts and even style text using different fonts.
