Font Choices in UXfolio

One of the best features of UXfolio is the ability to use font pairings for both the individual case studies and the home page. You can choose from a list of complimentary font pairings or generate your own custom set.

First off the preset font pairings. The app offers a number of solid choices, with alternating sans serif and serif options:

Then there’s the custom option (which I chose myself as I wanted to continue the look & feel of my previous portfolio site:

You have quite a few choices you can make & each style section is individually editable. The only issue I found is the inability to upload custom or nonstandard fonts. Though considering ease of use for potential viewers (and recruiters) this is not necessarily a problem, as it forces you to use fonts that anyone with the usual suite of fonts can access your site. Obviously you don’t want viewers being put off by an alert that a font can’t be found or isn’t loading. All in all it’s a solid feature that also meshes well with the available portfolio templates.
