Elevate Your Design with Our New Variable Fonts Plugin on Canva
We’re thrilled to announce the launch of VFonts by Typogram, a new variable fonts plugin designed to revolutionize text-based design in Canva. If you’ve ever felt limited by traditional font options, this is the tool you’ve been waiting for! With VFonts, you can unlock the power of variable fonts—a cutting-edge typography technology—directly within Canva, giving you unparalleled creative control over your designs.
What Is VFonts?
VFonts by Typogram brings the versatility of variable fonts to Canva. Unlike standard fonts, which lock you into fixed styles like “regular” or “bold,” variable fonts allow you to manipulate their properties, like weight, width, and other specific stylistic properties, like rotations, 3D transformations, that come natively with the font file. Before VFonts, variable fonts were not directly accessible inside Canva. Users had limited options and feature sets for creating typography.
Now using our intuitive sliders, you can control aspects like weight, width, and even stylistic transformations, unlocking infinite creative possibilities from inside Canva!
What Can You Do with VFonts?
Here’s how VFonts can elevate your designs:
1. Customize Font Thickness and Width
Forget the days of being stuck with predefined weights like “light,” “regular,” or “bold.” With VFonts, you can incrementally adjust the thickness and width of your design using intuitive sliders, finding that perfect balance for your design.
2. Transform Fonts with Style Axes
Some variable fonts come with extra design magic—style axes that let you do things like rotate characters, adjust slants, or tweak other unique properties. Now you can make every headline, tagline, or social media post truly stand out using dazzling typography!
3. Access Exclusive Premium Fonts
In addition to open-sourced fonts, We’ve partnered with our top-tier font foundry partner, The Type Founders, to bring you custom premium fonts you won’t find anywhere else. These exclusive designs will set your projects apart with professional-grade typography.
4. Design and Fine-tune Typographic Layout
Typography isn’t just about choosing the right font—it’s about crafting a composition that’s visually balanced and easy to read. With VFonts, you can go beyond basic text placement by adjusting line height, text justification, and font color directly within Canva. Experiment with colors to create striking contrasts or harmonious palettes that enhance your overall design. Fine-tune line spacing to ensure each line flows seamlessly into the next, whether you’re working on headlines, subtext, or intricate typographic posters. These tools let you build layouts that are not only aesthetically stunning but also functional and professional, elevating every project to the next level.
