About the Pretty You font
Pretty You is a dingbat typeface made by FPTFY. It is a modern take on the dingbat style, with 36 unique symbols you can place in a design. The set includes shapes such as hearts, flowers, stars, arrows, ribbons and banners.
Dingbat fonts use symbols or icons instead of letters and numbers. Designers use them for borders, frames, dividers, logos and patterns. Well-known examples include Wingdings, Zapf Dingbats and Webdings.
To place a symbol, you type a key that is linked to it. The keys usually do not match the letters you see on the keyboard, so open a character map first and find the shape you want.
Dingbats also work well next to a text font. Pick a plain sans serif for the words and use the symbols for the small decorative touches. This keeps the design easy to read while the shapes add interest.

How to use the Pretty You font
Pretty You works best as decoration. Keep the symbols small enough to read as accents, and let the words carry the message. These are a few ways to put it to use:
- Invitations, cards, labels and tags for weddings, birthdays and anniversaries. Use the symbols along the edges or in the corners.
- Logos, icons and badges for a brand, shop or website. A single symbol can stand in for a word.
- Patterns and backgrounds for a phone, computer or social media page. Repeat one symbol for a simple texture.
- Playful text. Swap one letter in a short word for a symbol, such as a heart in place of the O in a love note.
- Experiments with size and color. Mix symbols at different sizes to build your own shapes or frames.
On Windows, download the font file, right-click it and choose Install. Restart your design app if the font does not appear in the list.
On a Mac, double-click the font file and select Install Font in Font Book. Then open a program that lists your installed fonts and check the symbol view.
In Canva, check the font menu first. If the font is missing and your plan allows uploads, upload the file. If not, build the symbols in a desktop program, export a PNG and place that image in your design.
