Custom Handwriting Font in Preview Mode

Custom Handwriting Font - read below how I did it


So I went on Calligraphr.com, created a custom font that’s just like my handwriting (for free!!). This will generates a .tff file. Then I installed it as a system font (really easy on Windows, just right click the .tff file and click “install”). Mine was called “Myfont1”.
With that I made a simple css snippet:

div.markdown-preview-view {
    font-family: Myfont1;
    font-size: 2em;
}

Basically it tells obsidian to use the system font “Myfont1” for the preview-view and make it’s size 2em.
And that’s it… it’s ready to use!!

That’s really neat! If my handwriting wasn’t so hard for even me to read, I’d probably convert my vault to this.
