For local font files, use the @remotion/fonts package.

Prerequisites

First, install @remotion/fonts:

npx remotion add @remotion/fonts # If project uses npm
bunx remotion add @remotion/fonts # If project uses bun
yarn remotion add @remotion/fonts # If project uses yarn
pnpm exec remotion add @remotion/fonts # If project uses pnpm

Loading a local font

Place your font file in the public/ folder and use loadFont():

import { loadFont } from "@remotion/fonts";
import { staticFile } from "remotion";

await loadFont({
  family: "MyFont",
  url: staticFile("MyFont-Regular.woff2"),
});

export const MyComposition = () => {
  return <div style={{ fontFamily: "MyFont" }}>Hello World</div>;
};

Loading multiple weights

Load each weight separately with the same family name:

import { loadFont } from "@remotion/fonts";
import { staticFile } from "remotion";

await Promise.all([
  loadFont({
    family: "Inter",
    url: staticFile("Inter-Regular.woff2"),
    weight: "400",
  }),
  loadFont({
    family: "Inter",
    url: staticFile("Inter-Bold.woff2"),
    weight: "700",
  }),
]);

Available options

loadFont({
  family: "MyFont", // Required: name to use in CSS
  url: staticFile("font.woff2"), // Required: font file URL
  format: "woff2", // Optional: auto-detected from extension
  weight: "400", // Optional: font weight
  style: "normal", // Optional: normal or italic
  display: "block", // Optional: font-display behavior
});
