Knowing how to add fonts in Photoshop is vital for many designers. Photoshop remains the industry standard software for raster graphics editing, and most designers will probably either want to use the program or be expected to use it as part of their work. Adobe's software comes with a wide range of fonts included, but there will surely be a point when you'll need to install fonts to Photoshop, whether they're brand fonts provided by a client, fonts you or a colleague has created or typefaces you've downloaded.

Fortunately, it's very easy to install fonts in Photoshop, and it only takes a matter of minutes. Once you know how it's done, you can download all kinds of fonts online, including the best free fonts, brush fonts and typewriter fonts, and add them to your collection (for inspiration, see our Creative Bloq Typography Week coverage).
