Notion is an incredibly versatile productivity tool that empowers users to organize their thoughts, tasks, and projects with ease. While the default font may suit some users, others may prefer a more personalized touch to their Notion experience. This blog post will provide a comprehensive guide on how to change the font in Notion, allowing you to tailor the platform to your unique preferences.
Understanding Notion’s Default Font
By default, Notion uses the “Inter” font family, a modern and legible typeface designed for both digital and print applications. It is a sans-serif font, meaning it lacks the small decorative strokes (serifs) at the ends of its letterforms. Inter offers a clean and minimalist aesthetic, making it suitable for a wide range of use cases.
