Localize Google fonts

Hi,

Please refer to our brief documentation on adding local fonts.
https://docs.generatepress.com/article/adding-local-fonts/

Let us know if you need further clarification.

Happy new year! :)

Thanks Elvin. I think this is something different - i.e. not adding a font but localizing a font. This thread seemed to get close to what I need but looked super complex: https://generatepress.com/forums/topic/host-google-fonts-locally/

Many thanks,

Did you mean adding a font from google that isn't currently added on the customizer?

If that's the case, try this:
https://docs.generatepress.com/article/customizing-the-google-font-list/

It's the same link Leo provided on the thread.

The last PHP snippet on the documentation allows you to "localize" a font to the customizer.

Here's how to add PHP - https://docs.generatepress.com/article/adding-php/

Note: If its not from Google and is from something else, you'll have to create your own @font-face import on CSS and add it in on the customizer this way.

add_filter( 'generate_typography_default_fonts','tu_add_system_fonts' );
function tu_add_system_fonts( $fonts ) {
$fonts[] = 'Font Family name here';
return $fonts;
}

Where $fonts[] value is the font-family property value of the @font-face you've imported.

Thanks Elvin,

I don't think this is quite it but I don't know enough to be sure! Let me close this thread and come back when I've figured out exactly what our advisor wants us to do.

Many thanks,
Joy

No problem.

You can keep this open if you want so you can comeback to this incase you need further clarification/s. :)
