FontAdd

The FontAdd command opens your system’s file picker to upload a custom .ttf font, without opening the Font Manager dialog first. It’s the same upload the Font Manager’s Add Font button triggers — FontAdd is just a direct way to reach it from the terminal.

Uploading a font

1. Type FontAdd in the terminal, or click Add Font in the Font Manager dialog footer.
2. Choose a .ttf file in the system picker. Only TrueType fonts are supported — .otf and .woff/.woff2 are not.

The command finishes as soon as the file picker opens — there’s no further prompt, click, or terminal input. The font is registered and appears in the User group as soon as the file is selected.

What happens on upload

• The file name (without the extension) becomes the font’s name. Uploading MyFont.ttf adds a font named MyFont.
• Uploading a file whose name matches an existing custom font replaces it.
• The font is saved permanently in the browser (IndexedDB) and reloads automatically the next time you open KulmanLab CAD — it is not tied to the current drawing.

Keyboard reference

FontAdd has no keyboard interaction of its own — the entire command is the browser’s native file-picker dialog. Cancelling that dialog (or picking no file) leaves the font list unchanged.
