How to use Cuphead font

On Windows, download the font file, right-click it and choose Install. On a Mac, double-click the file and select Install Font in Font Book. Restart your design app if the font does not appear in its menu.

In Canva, open the font menu and search for the font name. If it is not there and your plan allows uploads, upload the file. If not, type the title in another program, save it as a PNG and place that image in your design. The letter shapes stay the same.

For thumbnails, fan art and quick edits, the generator above is often faster than installing both fonts. For longer text or a poster, install the font and work in your design app. Read each license before you use the font on merch or in paid work.
