How to rip font or extract font from any website
Rip font from any website! I got super-crazy after seeing a font on TheGuardian.com and started researching about that font. I tried writing ‘TheGuardian Font‘, ‘TheGuardian Font Family‘ on Google, but found nothing. ๐ So, what’s the solution? I needed it urgent for a project and finally striked with an idea of keeping an eye on the Inspect Element feature of Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome.

Any Solution to Rip Font?

Its not me saying, but I got to know a trick soon after looking. And again, not in a written form, I’m going to show it in a totally visual form. That will be the best key for your understanding. So, adding a video… This article is surely smaller this time but the video is bigger, longer and adorable! ๐
Some things to consider
Honestly, these are the things to make my article longer ๐
- You aren’t going to use any kind of Software, Extractor or a Script until and unless you have a browser.
- The video is demonstrated using Mozilla Firefox, so I expect you to use that for downloading the font.
- This is/was never a lengthy process. A good news: You need hardly 30 seconds to get that font!
- Watch the whole video to know about the Copyright issues and some tips you can stay away from mishap.
So, I added at least a 60-80 words in the read.
