Every iPad comes with a great range of fonts, but sometimes the style you want just isn’t there. That’s where AnyFont ($2.99) comes in. It enables you to add new fonts to your iPad, and those fonts are then available to any app that uses the system’s library of typefaces: Pages, Keynote, drawing apps and others.

You can add fonts to AnyFont in two ways: first by installing font files you’ve already downloaded, like fonts you have bought from a font library website; or by unlocking the bundled fonts that come with the AnyFont app. If you’re installing font files, the app supports TrueType,

OpenTypeFo­nt and TrueType Collection formats. If you’re unlocking, you’ll need to pay a modest in–app purchase to access the 1,000+ fonts inside the app.

As you will see in this tutorial, installing fonts in iOS can be a bit of a pain due to iOS’s security

– but it’s not difficult, it’s safe, and AnyFont does its best to make the process as simple as possible. CARRIE MARSHALL
