Custom fonts are the fonts that you have on your computer. I want to have custom fonts on Scratch 2.0 because Scratch 1.4 had the ability to do them.

Cool idea! I requested this to be moved to suggestions because it seemed a better fit there.

We used to have that in 1.4 - but it did cause a lot of problems. Projects that looked great on one computer would look not-so-great on another computer that didn't have the same set of fonts. Trying to capture the entire font definition in the project would take care of that issue but make the projects much larger. So we decided to go with a few standard fonts - but you can still bring in costume text by either importing the letters as images or vector objects. More work for you - but it guarantees that it will work on all computers.

This is my forum signature! On a forum post, it is okay for Scratchers to advertise in their forum signature. The signature is the stuff that shows up below the horizontal line on the post. It will show up on every post I make.

perhaps if just a couple more fonts were added to the editor, that would make my day. it's getting quite boring to use the same five fonts (actually I only use like 3 of them). a fixed-width font like courier new would is really high in my list of wants as well as setting the font of the contents in list watchers (though that's a different topic)
As a long time Scratcher, I have found new meaning to the name “Scratch”: for me, it means to “scratch that itch”, to come back again and again to realize new ideas in this toy language, even when I'm capable of creating my projects in real programming languages years later. It's a friend that helped me to pursue programming and get me to enjoy its fruit. I'm certain many others who have walked this path as well have grown fond of its importance in their life.

Maybe just have fonts added instead
Did anyone tell you I was a Time Lord? You should know. I live in Fourtrees, with my good friends Germany, England, America, and my fellow pokemon Skitty and Delcatty. We go to Hogwarts and battle Titans.

Helvetica, Gloria and Donegal
Everyone's favorite.
And there's actually… 6?
The other three are Mystery, Marker and Scratch.
I'd like more fonts but I saw Paddle's argument. If we're going to add three more fonts they better not be comic sans.

But yeah, the current 6 fonts are getting boring. My favourite is Donegal.

I like Comic Sans. What is all the hate about? 
I support Comic Sans being added.

Check out my games, if you want to. I make sure to share a cool variety, but even though I haven't shared much, I try to make each one count, but they can only count to 7 so far.

Yo, I'm Noelle!
I'm a 19 year old trans girl (she/her) who doesn't use Scratch much anymore.
Still pop in from time to time though, so don't be scared to say hi!

Comic sans lived in a day where people wanted a handwriting font, but back then technologies didn't allow for that in good quality.
So comic sans was created.
