Custom Fonts¶

RenderCV automatically discovers custom fonts placed in a fonts directory next to your YAML input file.

How to Use Custom Fonts¶

Create a fonts directory in the same location as your YAML file:

Your_Name_CV.yaml
fonts/
  CustomFont-Regular.ttf
  CustomFont-Bold.ttf
  AnotherFont.otf

In your YAML file, specify the font family name in the design section:
```
design:
  typography:
    font_family: CustomFont
```

Supported Font Formats¶

.ttf (TrueType Font)
.otf (OpenType Font)

Font Family Names¶

Use the font family name exactly as defined in the font file's metadata. For most fonts, this is the name you see when you install the font on your system.
