Preview Typefaces/Fonts?

Ask the community

Is there a way to preview what different typefaces/fonts will look like before applying them? Some software (i.e. google docs) represents the name of each typeface in the picker window so you know what you’re getting before you select it. It doesn’t seem like Figma does this by default, but maybe there’s a plugin or something that will help?

Highly recommend using the above plug-in! It gives the previews just as you’d like. Its annoying that previews aren’t already a feature of picking a font, but this helps bridge the gap…

This plugin is now broken (and seems to have been for months), any known alternatives?
