Today I will show you how you can add new fonts to GoodNotes and your iPad in general.
When I use my beloved app GoodNotes, I usually do it with the Apple Pencil. I prefer to write “real text” in Microsoft Word or Google Docs. But it’s nice to know that the function at least exists and that it’s also possible to type your notes instead of writing them by hand.
But what if you want to keep a bit of the handwritten flair? Today I’ll show you how to import any font you like so that it becomes available in GoodNotes. And that’s not all. I’ll provide you with my own handwriting: As a font!
Of course, it differs a little bit, because, in reality, I write every letter a little bit differently. But at least you get the handwritten flair, even if you type your text! So here it comes.
First, download the free iFont app from the AppStore. Alternatively, you can use another font app, but I’ve had good experiences with iFont.
Open the app and click on “Import” in the upper left corner. Now select the font you want from your files. First, you have to save them in .otf or .ttf format. If you are reading this article on your iPad, you can download my font directly and save it in your files. Then just select it.
The new font will appear at iFont on the left, then click “Install”. Confirm possible popups and then go to your iPad settings (iFont has a little guide for this otherwise). There you have to confirm the loaded profile by clicking on “Install” in the upper right corner.
Then go back to iFont, you will see that your font is now installed. Now when you open GoodNotes – or any other writing application – on your iPad, you can select the font like any other.
I hope this little tutorial on how to add new fonts to GoodNotes and your iPad was something that you didn’t know yet. And don’t forget to download my Dailystudy Font for free! And make sure to tag me on Instagram when using it. Would love to share that!
And if you want to learn more about the app GoodNotes you should check out my GoodNotes beginner guide. i wrote a whole ebook on every function regarding this app and I can guarantee you, that you will become a real pro in digital note-taking after you’ve read this book. So check it out!
I was very happy to find this site. I need to to thank you for ones time for this particularly wonderful read!!
I definitely savored every little bit of it and
I have you book-marked to look at new things in your blog.
Thank you
It worked
I’m really enjoying the theme/design of your website. Do you ever run into any
web browser compatibility problems? A small number of my blog visitors have
complained about my blog not working correctly in Explorer but
looks great in Firefox. Do you have any suggestions to
help fix this problem?
Never had serious problems. I work with a responsive WordPress theme. Not sure what you use.
Having read this I believed it was really informative.
I appreciate you spending some time and effort to put this content
together. I once again find myself spending a lot of time both reading and posting comments.
But so what, it was still worth it!
Wow, superb blog layout! How long have you been blogging
for? you make blogging look easy. The overall look of
your website is wonderful, let alone the content!
Hi this is kind of of off topic but I was wondering if blogs
use WYSIWYG editors or if you have to manually code with HTML.
I’m starting a blog soon but have no coding skills so I wanted to get guidance from someone with experience.
Any help would be enormously appreciated!
I use WordPress and a fitting theme for everything, because I can’t code as well 🙂
I used to be suggested this blog by means of my
cousin. I am not sure whether or not this publish is
written through him as no one else recognise such distinctive about my difficulty.
You’re amazing! Thanks!
Thank you! This works well.
