Adding new font

10 years ago · Last reply by Magus 10 years ago

Hi, I would like to try some fonts which are not in the font bundle theme provides. What is the process? I would like to affect Body font and Heading Font. I have font called Frenchpress as OpenType file (filename Frenchpress_freefont.otf).
I suppose I have to upload it somewhere via ftp and then drop some code in the custom CSS field?

Thanks!

    Hi Wlacho

    You are correct, but only having the single file type means that the font will not work on all browsers. To include it in the site please create a sub directory called fonts in your wp-content/themes directory and upload your font file there.

    Then navigate to Appearance->Custom CSS and add the following

    @font-face {
        font-family: FrenchPress;
        src: url("/wp-content/themes/fonts/Frenchpress_freefont.otf") format("opentype");
        font-weight: normal;
        font-style: normal;
    }
    body, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6 {
        font-family: FrenchPress;
    }

    Let us know how you get on

    Magus
