From your Finder, open Applications » Font Book.app. It will show you a list of all fonts installed on your system:





You can use all of these in Sublime Text (however you may want try only Fixed Width fonts for coding) by adding this in your preferences – just substitute the name of the font:



{
"font_face": "Source Code Pro"
}




Font Variants



(based on a suggested edit by @Merlin)



If you want to choose font variants, this becomes more complicated. An example (Sublime Text 3, macOS).




  • Font name in Font Book: Input Mono Compressed Extra Light Italic

  • Font filename: InputMonoCompressed-ExtraLightItalic.ttf


In your settings, you then have to use:



"font_face": "InputMonoCompressed-ExtraLightItalic",


That is, go with the filename minus extension.



The following works for "Input Mono Compressed Extra Light":



  "font_face": "InputMonoCompressed ExLight",


The following attempts didn't work:



  "font_face": "Input Mono Compressed Extra Light Italic",
"font_face": "InputMonoCompressed ExtraLightItalic",
"font_face": "InputMonoCompressedExtraLightItalic",
"font_face": "InputMonoCompressed ExLightItalic",
// and more permutations
"font_face": "Input Mono Compressed ExLight",


Which is a little maddening considering Input Mono Compressed did work for the non-'Extra Light' version. I never did discover the right permutations and shortening to get the Extra Light Italic to work.

    I experimented with typing exactly as shown in fontbook, with spaces between words removed. This worked for example: ‘InputMonoCondensed ExtraLight’. The spacing or lack of was important, but chars were all from Font Book name.
