Oh how lovely to have more options 😍👏 I hope one day you'll have some more fonts for body text - being able to do like a paragraph of "handwritten notes" within Atticus would be so nice. Great update and I love how Atticus is always moving forward 😍👏
There's much more that goes into the programming for body fonts, so I can't make any promises about new fonts there at this time, but you can highlight a paragraph and set it as one of your sub-headings. This way you can adjust that subheading font choice and size in the theme settings and easily create handwritten notes! I hope that helps!
@@AtticusWriter It does help a bit, untill you need to do different fonts for different characters handwriting 😅 While on the subject, any chance you'll be adding a text message feature integration? so one can create text message "bubbles" directly in Atticus? 😊
You can create text messages@@rosanarainhart ! If you look in the toolbar, there's an icon that looks like two chat bubbles. For different characters, you can set up different subheading styles - you have up to 5 fonts you can set.
I'm so glad you like the suprise! Likely you won't be able to use them for body fonts, but we may still have alternative options in the future. There's just too much risk of incompatibility and formatting issues to make that many fonts available for the body.
@@AtticusWriter Oh interesting! I don't really understand the technical reasons though, so I can still hope it will happen one day 😁 Have a happy Easter
We don't currently recommend using emojis or UTF-8 icons, as there's no guarantee how they will appear across different devices and apps. Emojis may not display correctly on platforms like Kindle, Nook, and may not embed into PDF files.
@@AtticusWriter Well, it's not like I haven't tried. But, I find too much conflicting information to derive any meaningful direction. Sometimes I feel like good old Times New Roman is the best answer. Just use TNR and don't even think about it any more. LoL
TNR isn't free for commercial use though...But any of the fonts inside Atticus will work for the Body - you can't go wrong with them!@@NathanGregoryAuthor
AHHHHH YAY!! Random side note, this is completely different from the fonts update, but how do you change your profile picture in the Atticus software? I've tried doing it several times but it hasn't ever kept the picture. Does it need to be a certain size?
I'm so glad you like the font update! The profile might not work perfectly right now, we're working on that. However it doesn't affect anything at all in your exports!
Thanks for the great video. More and more each week I am tempted to purchase this software and I feel I will in a few weeks. So, am I correct in saying that the fonts available will work with Kindles and other ereaders if we choose a particular font other than the usual suspects i.e. Times New Roman, Arial, Calibri etc.?
Just the chapter headings and subheadings. The body font will always be decided by the individual eReader's device preference settings for their reading comfort. I hope that makes sense!
This is a great feature--however when I chose one to add to favorites it didn't load into the dropdown in the formatting theme. I logged out and back in.
To add a sneak peek, you'd just want to click the three dots beside the Add a Chapter button to Import Chapters (assuming you have your chapters saved by themselves in a Word docx). Atticus will ask if you want to import as a new Volume, click NO. Since you won't want it to be numbered consecutively with the rest of your chapters, you can click the three dots beside the title of your sneak peek chapters in the left navigation and uncheck Numbered. I hope that helps!
You should see a similar icon in your browser bar itself that will work, but if you still have trouble, write into our support email and the team will help!
@@AtticusWriter Okay cool. I've been checking out all the cool fonts, but those two just kept twirling and twirling, never loading in the preview. Thanks again for all the neat fonts!
