Features

Shared Text Styles currently let’s you import and export text styles through a .json file. More features coming soon!

Export text styles

To create a consistent typographic style throughout your project, it’s a good idea to create an overview of the Text Styles you’re going to use in your project.

When you defined your Text Styles, simply go to your Plugins → Shared Text Styles → Export Text Styles…, to export your Text Styles to a .json file. You can also use the keyboard shortcut cmd + alt + e.

Import text styles

When you’ve exported your Text Styles, you can import them into any Sketch document, so the typography is consistent.

Go to your Plugins → Shared Text Styles → Import Text Styles…, to import the Text Styles. You can also use the keyboard shortcut cmd + alt + n.

Re-Import text styles

Typography is never done and changes quite a lot. Shared Text Styles let’s you re-import Text Styles that overwrite their initial states, so you can keep on iterating.

Go to your Plugins → Shared Text Styles → Import Text Styles…, to re-import the Text Styles. You can also use the keyboard shortcut cmd + alt + n.

Installing
