# Google Fonts for Confluence — Which Custom Typography App Fits Your Team? April 18, 2026 · 5 min read [NGPilot](https://ngpilot.com) Every Confluence page looks the same — same font, same size, same limited formatting. When you want a landing page that stands out, a team announcement that gets read, or documentation that looks professional, Confluence's built-in typography holds you back. Several apps on the Atlassian Marketplace try to solve this. We built **Google Fonts for Confluence** to give teams access to the full Google Fonts library (1,942+ families) with a live preview editor. In this post we compare it against every alternative so you can choose the right one. ## The Problem with Confluence's Default Typography[​](#the-problem-with-confluences-default-typography "Direct link to The Problem with Confluence's Default Typography") Confluence gives you one font family, a handful of sizes, and basic bold/italic. That's it. If you want to: * Create a space homepage that looks professional * Make team announcements that actually get noticed * Use your brand font in documentation * Display text at large sizes for presentations ...you're out of luck with the default editor. That's where font apps come in. ## What's Available on the Marketplace[​](#whats-available-on-the-marketplace "Direct link to What's Available on the Marketplace") There are 5 font apps for Confluence. Here's the current landscape: | App | Vendor | Installs | Rating | Last Updated | Pricing | | ------------------------------- | ------------------------- | -------- | ----------------- | ------------ | --------------------- | | Fonts for Confluence | Skanda Atlassian Apps | 222 | 1.5/5 (4 reviews) | Apr 2025 | Free | | Webfonts for Confluence | TNG Technology Consulting | 200 | 4.0/5 (1 review) | Feb 2026 | From $10/yr (DC only) | | **Google Fonts for Confluence** | **NGPILOT** | **15** | — | **Apr 2025** | **Free to 10 users** | | Custom Fonts for Confluence | Canary Apps | 6 | No reviews | Jul 2024 | From $50/yr | | Custom Fonts Pro for Confluence | Aptify Tech | 2 | No reviews | Jan 2026 | Free to 10 users | *Data from Atlassian Marketplace, April 2026.* **Fonts for Confluence** (Skanda) leads in installs at 222, but users report serious issues — the 1.5-star rating reflects broken access controls and usability problems. It's also free, which explains the install count despite poor reviews. **Webfonts for Confluence** (TNG) is the oldest competitor with 10,000+ historical downloads, but it's **Data Center only** — no Cloud version available. If you're on Confluence Cloud, this isn't an option. ## Feature Comparison[​](#feature-comparison "Direct link to Feature Comparison") | Feature | Google Fonts (NGPILOT) | Fonts for Confluence (Skanda) | Custom Fonts Pro (Aptify) | Custom Fonts (Canary) | Webfonts (TNG) | | ----------------------- | ------------------------------- | ----------------------------- | ------------------------- | --------------------- | -------------- | | **Hosting** | Cloud | Cloud | Cloud | Cloud | DC only | | **Font library** | 1,942+ Google Fonts | Google Fonts | 800+ Google Fonts | Custom | Custom URLs | | **Font search** | Fuzzy search | No | No | No | No | | **Font variants** | Regular/Italic/Bold/Bold Italic | Weight & size | Yes | Yes | Yes | | **Color picker** | Quick swatches + RGB editor | Basic | Yes | Yes | Yes | | **Text alignment** | Left/Center/Right | No | Yes | Yes | Yes | | **Text size** | Any px value (no limit) | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes | | **Live preview** | Yes | No | No | No | No | | **Dark mode support** | Auto | No | No | No | No | | **Visual effects** | No | No | Shadows, gradients | No | Text shadow | | **Actively maintained** | Yes (2026) | Limited (2025) | Yes (2026) | No (2024) | Yes (2026) | ### Where Google Fonts for Confluence Stands Out[​](#where-google-fonts-for-confluence-stands-out "Direct link to Where Google Fonts for Confluence Stands Out") **Largest font library** — 1,942+ Google Font families, more than any competitor. Every font in the Google Fonts catalog is available. **Fuzzy search** — Type part of a font name and find it instantly. No scrolling through a dropdown of 1,942 options. **Live preview with RGB color editor** — See your text styled in real-time with the selected font, size, and color. The color picker includes quick-select swatches and direct RGB editing for precise brand color matching. **Auto dark mode** — Styled text automatically adapts to Confluence's dark/light theme. Your text looks great in both modes without any extra work. **Free for small teams** — Full features available free for up to 10 users. ### Where We Could Improve[​](#where-we-could-improve "Direct link to Where We Could Improve") * **No visual effects** — Custom Fonts Pro offers shadows and gradients. We focus on clean typography rather than effects, but this is something we may add based on user feedback. * **Smaller install base** — At 15 active installs, we're the newest entrant. We're building trust through regular updates and responsive support. * **No Data Center version** — We're Cloud-only for now. If you're on Confluence Data Center, Webfonts by TNG is your best option. ## Honest Comparison: NGPILOT vs Skanda (Market Leader)[​](#honest-comparison-ngpilot-vs-skanda-market-leader "Direct link to Honest Comparison: NGPILOT vs Skanda (Market Leader)") Since Skanda's **Fonts for Confluence** has the most installs, here's a direct comparison: | | Google Fonts (NGPILOT) | Fonts for Confluence (Skanda) | | ------------------- | --------------------------- | ---------------------------------- | | **Fonts available** | 1,942+ | Google Fonts (count unknown) | | **User rating** | No reviews yet | 1.5/5 — users report broken access | | **Color picker** | Quick swatches + RGB editor | Basic | | **Font search** | Fuzzy search | No | | **Live preview** | Yes | No | | **Dark mode** | Auto-adapts | No | | **Pricing** | Free to 10 users | Free | | **Last updated** | 2025 | 2025 | | **Support** | Partner Supported | Community | The main tradeoff: Skanda is completely free with no user limits, but the poor reviews suggest reliability issues.
