# How to use custom fonts in the Maestra Editor

By default, the Maestra Editor uses web-safe fonts — universally supported across browsers, devices, and email clients.

If your email design uses custom or branded fonts, you can upload them in the Maestra Editor.

<Warning>
  **Note:** Custom fonts are not supported by all email clients.
</Warning>

# **Supported formats**

The Maestra Editor supports the following font formats:

* **.woff**
* **.woff2**

If your file is in another format (such as .ttf or .otf), convert it using an online tool such as **CloudConvert**.

# **How to upload a custom font**

1. Open the Maestra Editor.

2. Select any text block.

In the font dropdown list, click **Add custom**.

3. In the upload window, specify:

* a **unique** font name
* the font file in .woff or .woff2 format
* font weight
* font style

4. Click the **Add** button.

After uploading, the custom font appears in the **font list** and is available for all blocks in the Maestra Editor.

# **Font weights and styles**

For each uploaded font file, you can assign one weight:

* Regular
* Bold

and one style:

* Normal
* Italic

## **Non‑standard font weights**

If your font uses other weights or styles (such as Light, Medium, Semibold, etc.), each weight must be uploaded as a **separate font file** with a unique name.

**How to upload a font with a non‑standard weight:**

1. Name the font using the format **\[Font Name] + \[Weight]** (for example, *Ubuntu Light*).
2. Upload the font file.
3. Set:

* **Weight** – Regular
* **Style** – Normal

This ensures the font displays with the correct visual weight when selected in the Maestra Editor without additional settings.

# **Custom Font Support Across Email Clients**

<Warning>
  Not all email clients support custom fonts — when they don't, your email should fall back to a web-safe font instead.
</Warning>

**Supported email clients:**

* Apple Mail (iOS, macOS)
* Outlook for macOS
* Thunderbird
* Android Mail (excluding Gmail)

Most other email clients **do not support** custom fonts, including:

* **Gmail** (except Roboto / Google Sans)
* **Outlook.com** / **Outlook for Windows**
* **Yahoo! Mail**

## **Fallback fonts**

To ensure your email displays correctly in email clients that don’t support custom fonts, specify a **fallback font** that closely matches your custom font.

**How fallback fonts work:**

* In supported email clients, the custom font is used.
* In other clients, the fallback font is used.
* Layout and readability are preserved.

<Tip>
  **Recommendations:**

  * Always specify a fallback font.
  * Test a **preview email** in popular email clients before sending your campaign.
