@@austinkluth6806 You might want to take a look at Cassiy Johnson's channel. She has a step-by-step tutorial for creating a Printify Account, Etsy store, and linking them together.

[@LabLover677]

Please note that when you download a font make sure you read the license info. There will be a text document within the font download. Some will say commercial use, but with limitations. I only use ones that say freeware or public domain. I use fontspace.

Hi @lorrihalliday1499.. did you ever get an answer and or found an answer to your question

[@dominiquecoppens8609]

hi Lori, In Windows pc's I think the issue is with Figma not letting the formatting being imported in the Copy paste process..i am not a PC guru so .. what it does seem to do is that if you added the font you like from google fonts and downloaded and installed them .. the newly acquired fonts should be available in the Figma font library.. they did for me..

this process is SO MUCH faster than my current photoshop only process. I think I been going at it from "art and design only" and neglected the "speed and process" aspect. I'll use photshop to mix in sick images, and use Figma to help process and mix the images with the fonts to create awesome design combos. Thanks bro you got a sub and like from me +
