Hi

Custom fonts meaning not google fonts?

You have the font pack created?

Cheers

I would always suggest checking google fonts to see if there is a similar font to the one you want to use

will save some work

Hi John,

I need to get to that doc.

Basically the easiest way to do this is via a custom.css file:

1. Upload your ttf, eof fonts to fonts folder in your template - you will need to create this.
2. Add the following:

@font-face{
    font-family: "Slabo";
    src: url('../fonts/Slabo27px-Regular.ttf'),
    url('../fonts/Slabo27px-Regular.eot'); /* IE */
}

* {
	font-family: Slabo !important;
}

The font family needs to be the same specified in the font family in the font-face rule.

Thanks
