You can, but its kind of sketchy. You have to go to the roblox files on your computer and swap out one of the text files with your own. Then give it the same name as was there previously. Then you can go to studio and choose the font that you replaced.

The problem with that is, other people can’t see it. Only you until ROBLOX updates their files again.

Yes, That’s the drawback. I should have mentioned that.

You actually can!
Make a spritesheet of all the letters/numbers of the desired font, and then for each character you use an ImageLabel. ImageLabel.Image should be the asset id of the spritesheet, then I think you set ImageRectSize to the size of the spritesheet image (in pixels) on the spritesheet, and ImageRectOffset would be the position on the spritesheet of a character.
Example of a spritesheet (numbers only though):
1600x187 (ImageRectSize = Vector2.new(1600,187)
So, for example, number 1’s ImageRectOffset would be Vector2.new(-1540, 0), number 2 is Vector2.new(-1365, 0), number 3 is Vector2.new(-1140, 0) etc
You can set up a ModuleScript for each font and it’s character’s positions (ImageRectOffset):
And then write a script that would assign all of the characters accordingly for you.
It’s definitely much MUCH more harder than just typing in text into a TextLabel and changing the Font property, but it’s a way, and if you really need to use a custom font then this is how.
EDIT: added images, more info and fixed all mistakes, this is precisely how you do it.

Since people are still reading this sometimes, here’s a better way to do it.
Get this module!
It also includes a tool to convert .ttf/.otf fonts into roblox ModuleScripts, which you can then easily import into your game.

This would be cool, but no, there is no way to import fonts into studio. It would be cool if there was a plugin for 2D text fonts, but I’m not sure thats possible.

Sorry for the bump but if there is a custom font plugin that I created that might be helpful for anyone who finds this topic. It uses a sprite sheet method of inserting fonts. It is definitely not as good as a method as ADUPS module/API, but it’s all integrated within Roblox which is a “bit” quicker 
Documentation:
Just wanted to let anyone know if they come across this post

I know they solved the issue, but if you still don’t know how to make a “custom font” you can go to the following link to get the model that I have made

Alright, so this has been announced in RDC 2021.
Their concept about this is to have a font marketplace.
So, it’s pretty much custom fonts.
Since it was announced in 2021, it may have a chance of arriving this year!

Let’s goooo! That’s gonna come in handy for a lot of my projects, glad to see that smaller things that could make life a lot easier for us devs are being looked into aswell!
the way i get custom font is just finding it online and copy and pasting it into text label
it is the easiest way as of now
example i found these online

Usually, when I want a custom font, I just open an editing program and create a small png with the text I want. its fairly simple and easy to insert into your game. However, I don’t really think its the best option out there. For example, once you save the PNG and exit out of the editing program, there’s no way to edit it if you make a mistake.
However, it is, in my opinion, the simplest option. Well, I guess short of just using the built in fonts Roblox gives you.
I’m going to bump this post because we really need this. Studio’s font limitations make it much more difficult to add variation and spice up your text.

Can really agree for this, you can like get a custom timer font and smash it into your game.

Thanks! (ineed30characterssopleasedontmindthis!!!)
I found a way that doesn’t replace any font or expires. And works really good follow this: ROBLOX Custom Fonts Tutorial - YouTube
If you mean to add them on textLabels and stuff, I’m not sure about this but here we go.
There is a folder containing all of the studio files, you can go there and add font families, after that, you can use then in studio, 1 problem, I’m not sure if others can see it too.
- This is local only, it doesnt replicate to other users.
- Roblox has expanded their fonts library and now offers around one hundred different fonts.
