Use your installed font in Cricut Design Space

Using your font in Cricut Design Space is simple.

After you installed your font make sure to completely close Cricut Design Space and start it again. If you don’t do this it might be that the new font doesn’t load properly.

First, Click the “Add Text” button to start adding your text.

Write your text, make sure the text is selected and click on the “Font” dropdown.

By default, “All Fonts” is selected. On the task bar select “System Fonts”. It will load your installed fonts on your computer which might take a couple of seconds.

Now you can select the font you want to use, in this we’ve chosen Lovely Buttering Sans.

Now the text will be displayed in your chosen font!

It’s simple as that! Now you can just use it like any other font and change settings such as size and letter spacing.
