another font ipb4 [lettertype]

Is it possible to add another font ipb4

[Ralf Herrmann]

Can you please elaborate on what you want to do?

That was something I wanted to ask too. How do we add non-standart fonts to our pages ? 

[Marius]

@font-face { 
     font-family:myFamily; 
     src:url('your_source_here/fontName.ttf'), 
         url('your_source_here/fontName.eot'); 
}

You can put the font on your server, and then use it in the CSS like this.

 

[Ralf Herrmann]

Fonts are part of the theme styling. We currently don’t provide a font interface or a connection to a font service like Google Fonts. So your options are:

1.) Font Stack:
If you want to suggest other system fonts on the visitor’s devices, change the font stack in your custom.css

body {
    font-family: Calibri, "Helvetica Neue",Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif
}

(in this case I added Calibri to the default stack.)

 

2.) Web fonts:

You can add fonts for which you have the appropriate license and embed them into your site.  Upload the files to your server and use the font-face declaration in your custom.css to make the font available on your site. In addition, assign the fonts to your whole site or specific areas (e.g. headline) as described under 1.)

@font-face {
    font-family: 'graublau_sansbook';
    src: url('/webfonts/graublausans-book-webfont.eot');
    src: url('/webfonts/graublausans-book-webfont.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'),
         url('/webfonts/graublausans-book-webfont.woff') format('woff'),
         url('/webfonts/graublausans-book-webfont.ttf') format('truetype');
    font-weight: normal;
    font-style: normal;

}

 

3.) Web font service:

You can add external web font services such as Google Fonts or Typekit. Follow the instructions provided by these services. Usually you would have to add a call to the service in the header of you global template.

Thanks @Ralf Herrmann . You are in this business, can  you advice a web site for "free" fonts so that I can test the instructions given ?

Most of the fonts on Font Squirrel are "100% free for commercial use". I get mine from there.

I would like to use option 2 - Web fonts ONLY for the logo text - can you tell me what to add in my custom CSS please?  Attached is a screenshot in case I wasn't clear on my need.  

Thank you
