Screen Record by Alyshia J.

When using any digital editing software, something that is required if you will be including any type of text is different types of fonts. Typically, any device you use such as a desktop, mobile device, or iPad like I am using, includes pre-downloaded fonts that are free to use. You are not given many to choose from, so many creators like myself will download additional fonts. I found it to be a much easier process downloading new fonts onto my laptop, but I had to learn how to do it on an iPad as I have an app called Procreate that I do my digital designing on.

To download fonts I use an app called AnyFont which downloads fonts directly from outside sources such as Font Bundles which is shown at the end of the video above. The long list of fonts shown in my video are a mixture of pre-existing fonts as well as ones that I have downloaded for free use. There are fonts available on external websites that you have to pay to use but I don’t have any of those at this time. Some are available for commercial use, whereas others are only available for personal use meaning I could not use them in an item I would be selling and making money from. When you click on each individual font it allows you to download it, shows you a preview of the font, and then theres a section that shows you all of the information about where that font has been sourced. I’m not sure why the download feature still pops up as all of the ones shown have already been downloaded.
