Then, click on the location on your canvas where you want to place the text. An "Edit Text" window will appear on the screen. Input your text in this window and press "Done" or "OK".

Uploading fonts to your system
To add comic book fonts to Medibang Paint, you must first upload the fonts to your system. Here is a step-by-step guide on how to do this:
Firstly, download the font file you wish to use. This can be in the form of a .ttf file, for example. Once you have downloaded your chosen font, you need to install it on your computer. This process will differ depending on your operating system. For Windows, you can right-click on the font file and select 'Install'. For Mac, you can double-click on the font file and then click 'Install Font' in the font preview window.
After installing the font, it should automatically appear in Medibang Paint's font selection menu. To access this, open Medibang Paint and select the "Text Tool" from the toolbar. Click anywhere on your canvas to open the "Edit Text" window. If the 'Use Cloud Font Render' box is checked, you will have access to the Cloud fonts as well as the fonts installed on your computer.
If your uploaded font does not appear in the font selection menu, try checking your font settings and ensuring that the 'Use Cloud Font Render' box is unchecked. This will display only the fonts installed on your computer.
By following these steps, you should be able to upload and use comic book fonts in your Medibang Paint projects.
