App compatibility overview

Check this before install so you can choose a project path with confidence.

What to check after install

Word / PowerPoint

Works well for body text and invites

Restart the app after install, then check the family name in text menus.

Google Docs

Not a reliable target for local custom fonts

Google Docs mainly uses its own font menu. For local custom font work, use a desktop app or export finished artwork from a compatible design tool.

Figma

Works with local font helper setup

Enable local font sync in Figma desktop and confirm helper is running.

Adobe apps

Usually works once app cache refreshes

If missing, reinstall the font, remove old versions with the same family name, and restart the application once.

Canva

Depends on paid brand plan

Brand Kit supports uploaded custom fonts for compatible plans.

Quick compatibility decision

  • Export and install once on your main working OS.
  • Restart one target app before checking the font list.
  • Test with a short word in a fresh document, not an older project file.
  • If one app shows it and one does not, use the app-specific troubleshooting page.

Best first test

Install one export, open a fresh document in a desktop app that supports local fonts, type a short mixed-case line, and confirm spacing before using the font in a real project.
