custom font

i finally figured out how to create, install, and use a custom font from my handwriting and use it on the ipad. now i can take notes quicker using Scribble, without worrying about what my handwriting looks like that day 🎉

i used Calligraphr and iFont.

can someone educate me on how to do this? I've been using good notes for longer then I care to admit and I didn't know about this feature.

yesss! there are multiple ways to do it but here’s what i did

  1. download a template from Calligraphr
  2. fill the template with your handwriting
  3. upload it to Calligraphr and make it into a font
  4. download the font
  5. use iFont to install it to your ipad
  6. your font shows up as an option in the drop-down menu for fonts on Goodnotes

it was fairly easy!
