Ready to unlock this power? Let’s dive into how you can import and use your favorite fonts in Alight Motion to level up your videos!

• Download the Desired Fonts

Start by selecting a custom font you’d like to use from trusted sources like Google Fonts or DaFont. These fonts are available in the .TTF or .OTF format—perfect for Alight Motion.

• Store the Font in an Accessible Folder

Keep your downloaded font handy by saving it in a folder that’s easy to find. If you use cloud services like Google Drive, make sure the font file is accessible offline.

• Launch Alight Motion

Open the app and choose the project you want to work on—or create a new one if you’re starting fresh.

• Create a Text Layer

Tap the “+” button to add a new layer, then select “Text.” Type in your text and get ready for the magic!

• Select Fonts & Import Custom Font

In the font menu, scroll to the bottom, where you’ll find the option to “Import Fonts.” Tap this, navigate to where your font is stored, and import it into Alight Motion.

• Apply and Customize the Font

Now that your custom font is imported select it for your text layer. You can then adjust the font’s size, color, and other styling options to match your creative vision.

• Save and Export Your Project

Happy with the results? Go ahead and save your project. When you’re ready, export your video in high quality and share your masterpiece with the world.

Alight Motion supports both .TTF (TrueType Font) and .OTF (OpenType Font) formats. Make sure your custom fonts are saved in one of these formats before importing.

Trusted sources like Google Fonts and DaFont offer a wide variety of free fonts that are both safe to use and compatible with Alight Motion.

No, using custom fonts doesn’t affect the performance of Alight Motion. However, make sure you’re not using overly complex fonts that could make your text hard to read, especially in fast-moving video content.

Yes, you can import several fonts at the same time. Once they’re added to your font library, they will be available for all future projects.

If you no longer need a font, you can simply manage your font library within the app and remove unwanted fonts from your list.

• Font File Management

Organize your font files in dedicated folders on your device or cloud storage. Label them clearly so you can easily find and import them when working on various projects in Alight Motion. This will save you time scrolling through your file system.

• Test Fonts Before Importing

Some fonts only render perfectly on some devices or in some projects. Test fonts on a sample project to ensure they display correctly, especially if you are using complex or decorative fonts such as Hindi Fonts.

• Optimize Font Performance

Using high-quality fonts that are well-optimized can prevent potential slowdowns, especially when working with large or intricate text animations. Stick to trusted sources when downloading fonts to avoid performance hiccups.

• Consider Font Size & Resolution

Ensure that the font size you choose scales well with your project’s resolution. Fonts that look sharp in small resolutions may not hold up well in 4K or higher resolutions. Always preview your text in various resolutions to avoid pixelation or blurring.

• Backup Your Fonts

If you frequently switch devices or reinstall apps, keeping a backup of your custom fonts in cloud storage is a must. This way, you won’t need to download and import fonts every time you start a new project on a different device.
