Typography

Typography settings in Formsort give you full control over how text appears in your flows—from base font size to specific fonts and styling for individual text elements like headings and body text.

Font selection

You can add and manage fonts in your flow via Theme → Typography → Add font family.... Formsort supports the following font sources:

• Google Fonts (available out of the box)

• Adobe Fonts

• Self-hosted web fonts (e.g., via S3)

Markdown Styling Support

Once a font is added, you can assign it to the typographic elements found in the chart below. You can use Markdown syntax within any text field in your flow. Typography settings allow you to style each tag individually (e.g., **bold**, _italic_, etc.).
