Find and apply fonts

Use the Selection   tool to select the text or its portion to which you want to apply a font. If you're going to select a font for later or only want to explore fonts, skip this step.

Select Window > Type > Character to open the Character panel. Then, select the Set the font family dropdown to open the font browser.

In the Your Fonts tab, explore the local fonts and those added from Adobe Fonts:

• Browse through the Recently used or Your fonts section. If needed, apply filters or quick filters to narrow the list.
• Type the font name in the Set the font family field.

Apply filters to find fonts by specific sources and font properties.

Preview a font to see if it matches your design needs:

• Find the preview of the sample text next to the font name. By default, the sample text is the text you selected on the canvas, and if you didn't select any text, it shows the word Sample. Change the sample text or text size, or turn it off, as needed. 
• Hover over the font name to preview it on the selected text on the canvas.

To apply a font to the selected text on the canvas, select the font. If you select a font without selecting any text on the canvas, Illustrator automatically applies it to the next text object you add.

Select Window > Type > Character to open the Character panel. Then, select the Set the font family dropdown to open the font browser.

Switch to the Discover More tab. Browse through the Explore Styles, Trending fonts, New releases, or the Browse all Adobe Fonts section. If needed, apply filters or quick filters to narrow the list.

To add a font to your account, hover over the font name, select the Add   icon, and wait until it turns into the Remove   icon.
