# Upload a custom font

To import a custom font, open an Image Editor template. 

{% stepper %}
{% step %}

### Make sure to have a text object in your template

Click on the 'Text' button in the top left of the Image Editor to add a new text object to your template.

{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Click ‘Import custom font’

Select the text object and navigate to the Design tab in the menu on the right. Click '+Import custom font'.

For consistent results it's best to use font weights that are rounded to a hundred. For example '500' and not '550'. The font weight is read directly from the font file.

Deleting an uploaded font is possible from the same screen where you import fonts into the template. Select a font and click 'Delete'. A confirmation pop-up will appear.

{% hint style="warning" %}
If the selected font is used in a template, you will see the list of templates where the font is used. You can still delete the font, but image generation will fail for templates that reference the deleted font. Deleting a font cannot be undone.
