Discord fonts give your messages individual character – methods that go beyond standard options.
Customizing Discord fonts: basic methods for beginners
Discord fonts can be changed with simple tricks, even if the platform only allows limited formatting. Use these approaches to creatively design texts without installing external tools.
- Unicode generators for stylish lettering: Platforms like LingoJam or Fontsz generate text in exotic fonts (e.g. , ) using Unicode characters. Type your text, copy the result and paste it directly into Discord. Make sure that special characters are displayed correctly on all devices – some symbols are filtered.
- Customize font size and weight: Go to Appearance ☻ Text & Images in the Discord settings to increase or decrease the font size using the slider. You can also change the text weight (normal, medium, bold) here – ideal for highlighting headings.
- Use character formatting: Combine bold (*Text*), italic (_Text_) or strikethrough (~Text~) with special characters for decorative effects. Experiment with spaces or line breaks to visually structure texts.
Customize Discord fonts: advanced tools for pros
For more extensive customizations, use advanced solutions that change fonts system-wide or enable special styles.
- BetterDiscord for system-wide fonts: Install the BetterDiscord tool to integrate your own font files (e.g. from Google Fonts) into Discord. Download the font you want, install it on your PC and select it in the BetterDiscord settings. Please note: This tool is not officially supported by Discord.
- CSS code for precise customizations: Advanced users can change fonts using custom CSS code. In the Custom CSS tab, add code like font-family:’your font’; Use Google Fonts by adding the import link – for example, @import url(‘https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=Roboto&display=swap’);.
- Font styling bots: Bots like FontBot or Discord Styler allow you to automatically format fonts in specific channels. Set up the bot, define commands like !font Comic Sans, and customize styles in real time.
