Fonts (Premium)
Dashboard → Profile → Colors & fonts → Fonts. Two levels:
- Page font: the face for the whole card
- Fonts and sizes for each part: a font and a size for each part of the card on its own: Display name, Handle, Joined date, Location, Languages, Bio and Music player. The words on your links have theirs under Links → Look. Sizes run from 70% to 150% in steps of 5, the bio's from 50%, and the bio can take a size of its own on phones
A part left alone follows the page font, so setting one face at the top and changing only the display name is the quickest way to a page that looks designed. The bio is the exception: it has a font of its own, the system default until you pick one.
The enter screen has a font of its own, Font, under Profile → Effects → Enter screen, beside its colors.
Your own fonts (Premium)
Upload up to five fonts under Your fonts, at the foot of the same Fonts card: TTF, OTF, WOFF or WOFF2, up to 2MB each. Each one joins every font menu under "Your fonts", so it can be your page font, the font of one element, the enter screen's font or a single link's.
Deleting one takes it out of every setting that used it. A part of the card or a link goes back to your page font; your page font, bio font and enter screen font go back to System default.
What is available
Fifty fonts plus the default, grouped by shape in the picker and each previewed in itself. A sample:
- System Default: your visitor's own platform font. Loads nothing
- Outfit: the font this site uses
- Poppins, Parkinsans, Satoshi: clean sans-serifs
- Technor, Array, Panchang: display faces with character
- Silkscreen: pixel type
- Fira Code, JetBrains Mono: monospace
- And the rest of the fifty: handwritten, bold display, serif and more, in the picker's groups
What a font costs
Your page downloads only the fonts it actually uses, not all fifty. Most are served by us, and several cost nothing extra because the page already has them. Four of them (Satoshi, Array, Panchang and Technor) come from Fontshare, because their license does not let us host the files.
Choosing
- A display face for your name and something plain for your bio. Both loud is neither
- Silkscreen and the monospaces are narrow in their appeal and precise in what they say. Pick them on purpose
- Check your name at its real size, not in the picker
- Every extra face is another file to load. Two faces on a page is plenty
