The Fonts dialog is used for selecting fonts for the Text tool. It also allows you to refresh the list of available fonts, if you add new ones to your system while GIMP is running.

The Fonts dialog is a dockable dialog; see the section on Dialogs and Docking for help on manipulating it. It can be activated in several ways:

  • From the Toolbox menu: File->Dialogs->Fonts.

  • From the image menu bar: Dialogs->Fonts.

  • From the Tool Options for the Text tool. If you click on the “Font” button, a Font-selector pops up. In the lower right corner is a button that, if pressed, brings up the “Fonts” dialog.

  • From the Tab menu in any dockable dialog: Add Tab->Fonts.
