Whether you want to create different variants of fonts based on your own personal designs or make money by selling unique templates, you can easily turn any of your typefaces into a template:

Create a font template

  • From the Home view, tap & hold on any font

  • Tap Save as Template

Or:

  • In Fontself, tap the Sharing icon (on the top right) and tap Save as Template

  • Tap any of the following options to save or share the file

Use a font template

  • Just tap on any font template to start a new empty font (the template characters will show up as dimmed glyphs in the background)

Export a template

  • From the Home view, tap any template you created

  • Tap Export to save your template file

Import a template

  • Launch the Files app

  • Locate your font template—it's a file with the extension .fstemplate

  • Select the archive and tap Share

  • Pick the Fontself app icon

Et voilà: the template font will be imported as a new copy to avoid overwriting any previous version.

Delete a template

If you delete a template, don't worry: each font using it on the background is keeping a copy in its archive data, to avoid bad surprises.
