If the font is installed on your computer, QGIS should be able to
use it in your symbol.<br>
Under Layer Property's, Style, select Font Marker in Symbol Layer
Type.<br>
An alternative is to download and install Inkscape. It will allow
you to insert the text you are looking for and save it as a SVG
symbol.<br>

<div>Hello,<br>
<br>
</div>
I would like to convert a TTF font to SVG for use in
QGIS but all converters I have tried online fail to
generate a result that is usable in QGIS. I made sure to
set the path to my SVG folder correctly.<br>
<br>
</div>
No preview of the SVG is displayed when in the SVG marker
option, so I am guessing that the converted file is not
correct.<br>
<br>
</div>
Any ideas how to add new SVG? I am trying to get the USGS
geology markers converted from a TTF.<br>
<br>
</div>
Cheers<br>
