VariFont earns its place in the aescripts library as a native option for working with Variable Fonts in After Effects and Premiere Pro.
VariFont is a native plugin from Braindot Design that adds support for Variable Fonts inside Adobe After Effects. It also works in Premiere Pro, extending the same Variable Fonts handling to Adobe's editing application.
Compatibility reaches from After Effects CC 2019 up to After Effects 2025, and from Premiere Pro CC 2019 through 2024. The plugin is compatible with Apple Silicon/M1 machines, supports multi-frame rendering, and uses the current After Effects plugin interface. Earlier updates reorganised the UI and addressed glyph jittering during animations on some fonts.
VariFont holds rank 94 in the aescripts library. The current release is version 2.3.0, updated in December 2024, which brought the plugin onto the latest licensing framework. It is listed here as free; check the developer's page for current licensing details.
VariFont is best for after Effects and Premiere Pro users who need Variable Fonts support across recent versions of both applications.
VariFont is completely free to download and use.
VariFont lists compatibility with After Effects 2025, and its support extends back through 2024, 2023, 2022, 2021, 2020 and CC 2019. On the Premiere Pro side it covers 2024 down to CC 2019. The plugin is also compatible with Apple Silicon/M1 machines and supports multi-frame rendering, so it fits into current After Effects setups. For the most up-to-date compatibility information, check the developer's page.
VariFont added Apple Silicon/M1 compatibility in its 2.0 release, alongside support for the new After Effects plugin interface and multi-frame rendering. That same update reorganised the UI and fixed glyph jittering during animations on some fonts. An earlier update notarised the plugin for macOS Catalina and above. If you are running a recent Mac, VariFont is built to work with these systems. For current details, see the developer's page.
VariFont supports Premiere Pro 2024, 2023, 2022, 2021, 2020 and CC 2019, bringing its Variable Fonts handling into Adobe's editing application as well as After Effects. Support for Premiere Pro was added in an early 1.1 release, and a later update fixed a compatibility issue with Premiere Pro 2023. For the full and current list of supported versions, check the developer's page.
VariFont is listed as free here in the catalog. Its most recent release, version 2.3.0 from December 2024, updated the plugin to the latest licensing framework. Earlier versions also handled registration behaviour, including clearing the render cache automatically after successful registration to remove the watermark. Because licensing terms can change over time, check the developer's page for the current details before you rely on VariFont in a project.
