How to import fonts to Notepad++?

Question

I use Notepad++ to write websites and I'm using the "consolas" font, but I would like to use "inconsolata" which is not available in the Style Configurator (version 6.9.2). Is there a way to import a font to Notepad++?

Solution

In Notepad++ you can use all installed fonts. So download the consolas OpenType file, run it and click Install.

From there you should be able to select it in Notepad++

Make sure to check "Enable global font" (also font size, and the various global font styles).

Worth noting that one must check "Enable global font" in order for this to take effect. At least, that was my experience.
