Step 4: Use your font in Cricut Design Space. Go to Cricut Design Space and click the text button on the left. Type some text and then go up top and click the arrow next to font. In the search box type “Welcome.” Click the Welcome font and you’re all done! To download fonts to your Mac computer: Go to Dafont.com and find the font you want. Since Cricut Design Space currently does not space out the letters in fonts properly, you will need to play around with the letter spacing. I have an entire tutorial on how to do that! Check out that video here. Check out the full tutorial on how to download fonts below! I also share my favorite way to keep track of all of my fonts in that video. Fortunately, MacOS (or on iOS, if you need help with that) has greatly improved the way you can quickly download, preview, and enable new fonts for popular Mac design apps. Here’s how to install.

Uploading a new font to Cricut Design Space is easy, but if you miss a few crucial steps at the beginning, you will find yourself beyond frustrated.

Cricut Design Space pulls fonts into its system that are installed on your computer. Before beginning, close Cricut Design Space if you have it open on your computer so that the program can pull your new font when you start it again.
Step 1
Find your font. I always recommend using a site that has commercial use fonts. Even if you only plan to use the font for a personal project, you never know when someone will love your project and ask to buy one! Using a font approved for commercial use makes sure that you are covered. Commercial use fonts do not have to be expensive! I use fonts from Hungry Jpeg or Font Bundles. They are inexpensive and both sites have a free font each week.
Step 2
After locating your font, download it to the computer. No matter where you have purchased or found the font, there should be a download button.
Step 3
After the font has downloaded, locate the file on your computer. When the fonts are downloaded to your computer, it will be in a zip file. This zip file must be extracted in order to use the font.
Step 4
Right click on the zip file. Click Extract.
Step 5
Choose a destination folder for the font. Your computer will automatically suggest a folder. I just use the one it populates.
Step 6
Once the zip file has finished extracting, open up the new font folder. Locate the font icon within the file. Double click to open up the font.
Step 7
Click install. This will install the font onto your computer.

It is fast and easy to download fonts from Dafont to Cricut.
There are many other free font sites you can download from as well, but I prefer Dafont. So I will be speaking and showing pictures from Dafont, but this process applies to them all.

How to Download Fonts from Internet to Cricut
- Once you are on the Dafont site, you will see lots of choices. From here you can start clicking types of fonts and just explore. You will be able to scroll through tons and tons of fonts under each category.
- You can also choose to see how a font will look with a word or phrase you are wanting to use.
To do this, click on any font type in the header pictured above. This just gets us to a new page with a different tool bar. Once you click on that a new tool bar appears. There is a Preview button on the far left hand side. Here is where you will type in your text you are wanting new font for. You will still need to pick the Font Category, but this makes it so much easier to actually see how your text will look with each font.
So lets say I want the words Welcome to Our Home. So I type that in the Preview box and then click Submit. - I think it really helps to see your text in each font. Especially if you are looking for something particular.
So search and play with this feature as much as you want.
There is no limit to how many you can download. - To download a font from Dafont all you need to do is click the Download button on the far right.
Once you do that, it will send you to a page on your computer to save it. Mine already knows where to save fonts, but you may need to create a new folder to save all your fonts.
If you don’t like where this is, just click Desktop and create a new folder there. - After you save it, in the saved file double click the name of the font.
If there are several versions of the font, I try to choose either OpenType or TrueType. The other versions can be a bold version or italic version. You can download them as well. Some versions of the file are information about the font. - When you double click on the name of the font you downloaded, a new box will pop up. Click Install.
- That’s it! Your font is now installed on your computer.
To get Cricut to recognize it you will need to refresh your Cricut App.
Go to Cricut. At the top left hand corner click View, then click Force Reload. This will refresh Cricut and your fonts will be in their program now. - To find your fonts and make sure they downloaded to Cricut, type in some text in your Cricut Design Space canvas and then in the font dropdown type in the name of the font you downloaded. Mine was Goo Easter.
That’s it! You can download as many as you want. I have hundreds of fonts downloaded.
The next question you will probably ask is….How can I organize my fonts?
I have a fix for that too. It’s called a Font Manager. Here is my blog post telling you how to download the font manager and how to use it. You will thank me for this one. Organize Fonts with a Font Manager.
