Multiple (Too Many) Font Choices for Containers

Hello there! I'm back with another question.

When I go to update my page
https://505colors.com/colors/black/

The container has a drop down list of about 24 Google fonts I can choose from. I'm not sure why there are so many, I'd love to get rid of them, but I can live with it. The problem is that the fonts I defined in the site typography section aren't among those fonts.

I feel like I should know the answer to this but I just can't figure it out!

Thanks for your help.

Hi Monica,

Those two typography systems are from different sources.

Font manager is from GeneratePress whereas the typography settings of a GB Headline Block is from GenerateBlocks.

In general the Font and Typography Manager is used to target texts more globally in a sense. GenerateBlocks headline Block is more specific to a block. By default, a Headline Block only inherits the font, so, if you set a font in the typography manager for the body, the font of a block should inherit that.

If you wish to use a specific font for GenerateBlocks, you’ll need to enter the font name manually.
