OpenSCAD Fonts
Fonts that are available for use within the CadHub OpenSCAD IDE listed at the bottom of this page.
#
Using fontsThe way to use the fonts with text()
is to ether use
font="<fontName>"
or
font="<fontName>:style=<styleName>"
An example of both would be:
sampleText="the quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog";text(sampleText, font = "DejaVu Sans", size=6);translate([0,-10,0]) text(sampleText, font = "DejaVu Sans:style=bold", size=6);
#
Use with the customizerIf you would like to offer font selection to users with the customizer, the best way is to add a curated list using a select.
For example:
// font selectionfont = "DejaVu Serif"; // ["DejaVu Serif", "URW Gothic L", "URW Bookman"]
