Step 4: Install the Font
Now that the font files have been transferred to your iPad, you can install them into Procreate. Open up the app and go to the Fonts section (Settings > Fonts). Press the ‘+’ button and choose the “Copy to Procreate” option. This will install the font files into the app.
Step 5: Use the Font
Once the fonts have been installed, you can start to use them in your artwork. Go to the Text tool and choose the font from the dropdown list. You can now type and style your text with the fonts you just downloaded.
