Procreate (version 4.3+) supports text layers and allows you to import additional fonts to use with your artwork. The text tool is everything Procreate users have been waiting for. Instead of going to different applications or exporting the file and editing later on, Procreate now features text-editing abilities right in the application.

• Tap the wrench icon in the top left

• Select Add > Add Text

Georg's COMIC FONTS: 11 Handwritten Lettering Font Bundle

My custom made font bundle contains 11 unique handwritten comic and lettering fonts I created for my personal and professional work as a comic artist and illustrator. The fonts are inspired by the hand lettering style of Bill Watterson, Charles M. Schulz, and my favorite Franco-Belgian comic artists.

Import through Procreate’s interface, AirDrop, the Files App, drag-and-drop, and bulk import your favorite fonts.

Procreate can import TTC, TTF, and OTF files.

💡TIP: If your font downloads as a .zip file, you will need to unzip it to import it into Procreate. Check out iZipApp Free for handling .zip files on your iPad.
