Font - using Fonts, typing texts?

Hello, and welcome to the forum and like your name, as the curiosity is one of the maiin source of creativity and innovations

Regrettably the answer is no, there is no way to to use fonts and write texts, because for this to happen FF needs to be able to use vectors

This feature has been already been asked since many years ago already in 2006!!! 12 years ago, but until now there is no news that it will happen any time soon, and seeing that there is the new FF 8 now it will not happen neither before end of next year

Although you still can use letters inside FF in two different ways

1 - As you have told well, you can import the letters in image format either with or without transparent background.

2 - Use custom created letters made inside FF with FF components.

Typography Modules - Requested already in 2006

I made also the request again in 2012 as shown here

Would it be possible to have a TEXT import into FF as a component?

In FF 3.0 I could already use some text inside FF as shown here
