### Frequently Asked Questions

- Where can I learn more about typography?

  Typography On The Web has a wonderful collection of web typography information! Typographica and Alphabettes are also A+ further reading.

- What are Variable Fonts?

  Introduced by John Hudson at ATypI 2016, and coined by Nick Sherman in an A List Apart Article, variable fonts are fonts that can hold a number of weights, widths, and other styles in a single font file and adapt to their context.

- How do I use my custom fonts?

  Typeshift app references local fonts on your device. After installing them, enter your font’s name (the fonts name as it shows up on Illustrator, Photoshop or Sketch) where it says ‘local font references’. If the font exists, Typeshift will confirm it and apply that font to the selected text element.

  We totally recommend you use something like Fontstand to try fonts or talk to the foundary / type designer themselves and see if you can get a trial license!

- Can you add this feature?

  We love working with people to make things better – fill out our survey or reach us on Twitter.

- Something is broken! When’s it going to be fixed?

  Currently, Typeshift has a very small team (hi). Let us know and we’ll do our very best to get back to you quickly.

- What’s your favorite food?
  In my humble opinion, nothing beats a homemade turkey dinner.
