How to install Typeheist Desktop fonts
Let’s get you up and running with your new fonts, so you can start designing in your favourite desktop apps. Below is a quick guide showing how to add desktop fonts to your Mac or PC computer.
On a Mac:

Download and unzip your font package.

You’ll see an .otf file in the ‘Desktop’ folder.

To install the font, you can either:

Double click the font file. This will open up a preview window where you can select ‘Install Font’.
-
Right click the font file and select ‘Open with > Font Book’. This will open up a preview window where you can select ‘Install Font’.
-
Open Font Book and drag the font file(s) into the Font Book font list (this the the method I use as you can install multiple at once).
-

Now that your font is installed, it will be available in desktop applications that support fonts (e.g. Illustrator, Photoshop, Figma). You may need to restart these programs to enable the fonts to load.
On a PC:
