Project Fonts Preferences

Define a set of fonts to be used with the Type tool for your project.

There are two main benefits to using project-based fonts:

Find them easily in the Project tab of the Select Font widget.
Replace a font and have the change applied to all instances of the Type tool that were using this font.

Note: Rendered Type Timeline FXs are unrendered when a project font is changed.

Tip: The font defined in the first row is loaded by default in a new Type Node and Timeline FX.
