Change whole font to arial in overleaf

fontfamilyoverleaf

I want to know which command i have to use to set the whole document font from times to arial in overleaf? i have seen some threads suggesting to use helvet which is close to arial.

It would be a huge help if you could suggest me the code for arial font and where to put it.

Regards,
SZ

If you are working in overleaf, then use XeLaTeX or LuaLaTeX compiler and add these commands in preamble after \documentclass{}:

\usepackage{fontspec}
\setmainfont{Arial}

Custom font in Overleaf with pdfLaTeX compiler

Note also that calibri isn't licenced for use off windows (unless you have bought it) you can use the chrome OS font clone carlito which uses the same font metrics as calibri and has already been set up for use with pdflatex with the carlito package.
