Agreed, it's so frustrating there's still no option like this. At least allow us to use the fonts that are installed on our phones. It would take them so little effort to fix this. Disappointed they're not doing anything about it.

Still waiting for this feature in July 2022, I think Samsung is in a big deep sleep. You know this is the reason most people prefers Apple's Ipad, whatever they demand, either the app developers implement their demands or tens of apps popout in App store for that single demand. And here with as much expensive tablet as ipad, a single demand of font style in Samsung notes can't be fulfilled. neither there is any other notes app (other than grand old "onenote" and not trustworthy chinese "touchnotes") where we can change font of our own desire. Just look at Good Notes that is perfect in every possible way, by implementing font style Samsung Notes would be very close to it and in future it can even surpass Goodnotes. Apple just takes care of these minute demand of users and that is why they are successful. We buy tablet for productivity, for note taking if this single purpose can't be achieved what is the use of such expensive tablet.

And Samsung if you are working on this, please do it properly not like "Noteshelf" they just gave 3-4 fonts, we want a library of 100+ font and font import functionality. And if you are unable to fonts just give option to use use my installed fonts we will buy fonts ourself.

And for the folks that came here to find alternatives for this problem as we do for many things on Samsung Tab due to Samsung's neglence.

1. Go to playstore, download any Font Keyboard (there are many) and install them and change default keyboard from Samsung  Keyboard  to that Font Keyboard (You know Samsung this is going to hurt you). They have 100 of fonts to choose from, although they don't works with physical keyboard. This is best of now you can do. 

2. Change the whole system font. (Samsung, can you even imagine the pain of switching whole system fonts)

3. For those who want fonts only for stylish heading, download ibis paint, type text using text tool and select "save this layer as png" from menu in layers pane. Then in Samsung Notes import this image and crop as per your size.

Hope it wakes Samsung and help fellow Samsung Users.

Thank you so much! Honestly I totally agree and pretty upset myself. I cant believe after so long they haven't changed so we have to put all the extra work when we spend so much to be able to take notes efficiently yet we cant.

Two days until 2023 and nothing!

Bought a tablet literally just because I wanted to try digital planning and taking notes for uni there, and I fell in love with every tool of the Samsung Notes, but just the fact that I can’t choose the font and I’m only left with an Arial or something made me download another app which I don’t love as much, but fonts are more important to me.

At first I thought I was doing something wrong and searched for tutorials, but noup; so I’m very disappointed because I think it’s the most basic thing ever, can’t even believe it doesn’t have it.

And we don’t even have a good app for this kinda thing in the play store, like Good Notes. Had to pay for Penly and it’s good, but it’s not enough. Hope they can fix this, but I won’t hold my breath if they’ve been asking for years and still nothing… Thinking about selling my tablet and buying an iPad, which I hate because the tablet is so cute.
