Hello,
I installed a new font today (Goldman Sans) and after restarting many of my MS Office programs, the new font shows up. However, for Alteryx (even after restarting my computer) I still cannot find this font as an option. Is there a way I can get this to show up in my list of fonts?
Thanks,
Doug

I was able to get this to work doing these steps:
- Go here to download the fonts (you already did this): https://www.cufonfonts.com/font/goldman-sans
- Unzip the zip file
- Select all the TTF fonts, right click and install
- Go to Designer
- Go to Options > User Settings > Edit User Settings
- Go to 3rd tab "Canvas"
- Go to Font in Annotation Settings
Hope this helps!

Thanks Josh, I was able to make the change in my user settings but still unable to find the font in the "Default Table Settings" in the Table tool. See second screenshot. This is where I would like the fonts so I can apply to my reports.

@djodts have you made sure to close and reopen Alteryx? Can you see those installed fonts in word/other applications?

Yes, I can use in MS Word and MS Excel. I, restarted Alteryx, then my computer and even reinstalled Alteryx. Seems bizarre.

Ok got it figured out. I was originally having the same issue
You need to make sure you install for all users

Is there another way? I don't have privileges on my computer with Alteryx to install for all users, unfortunately.
