Scenario

You are using Exclaimer, and you wish to apply a custom font to a signature element.

Resolution

NOTE: The steps described here assume that you have already created an email signature. For more information, see how you can create an email signature.

To add custom fonts:

  1. Open the required signature template within the Signature Designer.

  2. Select the element you wish to update.

  3. From the right-hand side Properties pane, expand the Text section. 

  4. Within Font Family, click MANAGE.


    The Custom Font window is displayed.

    NOTE:
    - Exclaimer only supports font files in the .ttf and .otf file formats.
    - The max font file size acceptable is 1MB. For more information, please see Limitations within the signature template.
  5. Click UPLOAD FONT.
    The Open window is displayed.

  6. Browse through your local/network drives to locate and select the required font file. Once selected, the font file is uploaded, and the Custom Fonts window is updated.
    Example:


  7. Click OK to return to the properties window.
    The uploaded custom font will be available for selection in the Font Family drop-down list.
    Example:


    NOTE:  You only need to add a custom font once - having added a font, it is available for use throughout this template to apply to any element, table, cell, group, and canvas.

    Once you select the custom font for the selected element, a confirmation window is displayed asking if you are sure about using a custom font.
    A warning is also displayed that this will render as a bitmap image, and text will not wrap unless a fixed width is applied to the text element.

  8. Click YES to continue.

    In the Preview section, you can see that the selected text is in the chosen custom font.
