Fonts

[Laura]

I think it would awesome if we could upload our own fonts, is there a way to make this possible?

Hi Laura, Currently there isn’t a direct way but you can achieve this using the “Pro Editor” tool. Go to the Advanced Tab and choose Pro Editor, then select “Pixlr Editor”. This will open up Pixlr’s Photoshop-like editor where you can add fonts from your own computer. When you save, you will be back in Ribbet where you can continue editing.

Update: You can now use fonts from your computer. Simply click “Load My Fonts” at the bottom of the Ribbet font list to use any font installed on your computer.

Thanks for adding this new feature. But I am having problems with the font size. The fonts that I added from the sites that you gave me do not get as big as the fonts from your online software. Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance

Hi John, This is a limitation of the current version of Flash that is integrated in Google Chrome. There are 2 solutions (until this is fixed in an automatic Chrome update):

1. Try another browser when you need to use large font-sizes (Firefox, Safari, Internet Explorer etc) and if you still have a problem try updating flash.
2. Or, you can alternatively disable Chrome’s internal Flash player so that it uses the system Flash player.

If you still have a problem please let us know.

Thank you, I disabled Chromes internal flash player by following the very easy instructions that you had given to me and it works brilliantly. Thanks so much again.

Job well done in the pond. KEEP IT UP!! 🙂
