Jon Seidel (ID: 000000c1d843708c) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 12/03/2023 Does not work. Installed per instructions; select text ==> no widgets. Use Cmd-K or Cmd-I ==> no change. VERY disappointing.

icon

Andrew Ting (ID: 00000007ef5e173b) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 11/02/2023 It does the job, however for my purposes (LinkedIn) the extension converts the font to serif when applying formatting. I would want it to keep the original font (sans).

Jakub Matoušek (ID: 00000065b21d87b8) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 05/25/2023 Great tool. One star is waiting for more universal font. Is possible to update font with support of Czech symbols like ěščřžýáíéůúď ?
