How to install fonts on iPad Air?

I make my Keynote presentations with the font MYRIAD pro, on my new Mac Studio.


The bad news is, my iPad does not have MYRIAD font.


Is there a simple, user friend way to copy and install the font from Studio to iPad?


Thanks.

The iPad User Guide provides information about adding fonts to your iPad. The Guide is a rich source of frequently overlooked information about your iPad and iPadOS. The Guide is available both online using a web browser (such as Safari), or as an Apple Books download:

Here is a direct link to the relevant section of the Guide for adding fonts to your iPad:

Install and manage fonts on iPad - Apple Support


Many fonts are licensed - and as such require payment of a fee. Others are royalty free - and can be downloaded and installed without payment for their use. That said, many font-installer Apps may be a paid-App in their own right.


There are also Apps that include a font-installer - one being Adobe Creative Cloud:

https://apps.apple.com/app/adobe-creative-cloud/id852473028


This App allows you to install and use many Adobe and royalty-free fonts without charge; you simply need to have a free Adobe account - and be signed-in to your account to install fonts. The font-installation may need to be occasionally refreshed, but this is minor inconvenience for the benefit gained.


A popular (low-cost) third-party font installer App, often recommended within the Apple Support Community, is AnyFont:

You should be aware that while installed fonts are usable with many productivity Apps, this feature is by no means universal; Apps themselves must support installed fonts.

Many thanks.


I did that, found the the font that I wanted, Myriad, costs $35 for each subset: regular, semibold, bold.


If you are a Keynote expert, what I seek is a clear, generic font that comes in those 3 sizes. For headline, subtitle and test. Most or all of the other similar fonts, such as Calibri, only come in bold and regular.


All my Keynote presentations are made with Myriad on my iMac, but when I open them in iPad, things go bad because my only choices are fonts with only 2 sizes, regular and bold. Which means lot of tedious work to reconfigure on iPad.
