Using Assets in Templates

Images

// Reference by filename
#image("assets/logo.png", width: 50%)

// With explicit path
#image("assets/reports/banner.jpg", height: 3cm)

Fonts

Upload .ttf, .otf, or .ttc files to the assets folder. They are automatically detected and available in Typst:

#set text(font: "My Custom Font")

Folder Organization
