KiCAD Footprints: Assigning to Symbols and Making Minor Footprint Edits
Here's how to assign PCB footprints to schematic symbols in a KiCAD 5 design, and how to edit existing footprints if minor adjustments are required when an exact footprint isn't already in the library. It's best to create a new custom library for saving new footprints into so the default library is kept in tact, and it's best to make part attribute changes from the schematic side and forward annotate into the PCB layout to keep schematic and PCB in sync.
