9 thoughts on “How to Install Custom Fonts on Google Slides?”

  1. This article does not solve the question at all. How to install CUSTOM fonts. Not how to use other Google Fonts or third-party modules that allow you to choose between other Google fonts.

    1. Sorry, your query is not resolved, but Google Slides do not have the option to install custom fonts. This is the only option available.

    1. Hey Langston,

      The other way around is to copy and paste the font text from the internet onto your slides and then continue writing with the custom font style.

  2. This article seems to be a little disingenuous at best. The title implies it will tell you how to do something that the article itself concludes cannot be done. It’s leeching/wasting people’s time for clicks.

    1. Hey,

      Sorry, you are disappointed with the post. There is no way you can install custom fonts on Slides, but the article shows few workarounds to use fonts.
