Is it possible to pick from the fonts that are installed on the system? |

Unfortunately not. Because of security and privacy restrictions. As a workaround i was planning to add folder where you can place your fonts and app will scan for them. But that requires digging into backend and i want to avoid it at that stage.
Not sure what you mean. |

That’s unfortunate. Tracking is the spacing between the characters. |
