Summary: This guide explains that Sites integrates exclusively with Google Fonts, allowing you to select from a vast library of high-quality, free fonts to customize your website's typography by searching for and applying them within the Sites Design settings.
Before You Begin
- You cannot upload custom font files directly to Sites.
- Access to Sites > Design > Fonts requires appropriate permissions.
- It is recommended to explore the Google Fonts website beforehand to choose your desired font.
Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Navigate to Google Fonts in a separate browser window or tab. [Explore the available library to find a font you like.]
2. Click on Sites from your main navigation menu.
3. Select Design, and then Fonts from the left menu.
4. Enter the name of the font you found on Google Fonts into the Font Options 1 or Font Options 2 dropdown menus.
5. Select the desired Font.
6. Click Save Settings (or similar) to apply the new font to your site's typography.
Troubleshooting & FAQs
- Can I upload my own custom font file? No, currently Sites integrates only with Google Fonts, and there is no option to upload custom font files directly.
- I searched for a font, but it isn't listed in the Sites dropdown: Double-check the spelling of the font and ensure it is a font from the Google Fonts library, as fonts from other sources (e.g., Adobe, Dafont) will not appear.
