Forum:Fonts

Okay, so, if I wanted to make a font usable on my wiki that wasn't one of the default fonts provided by Wikia, would there by a way to do that?
 * You would need Wikia to host that font file for you, something they will not do.--
 * Actually, you can use Google Web Fonts and change the font with CSS. With Google Web Fonts, select the font you want, add it to your collection, then under the use tab, select @import for step 3. Put the code into your wiki's Wikia.css and/or Monobook.css page and you can use the font-family CSS property to change the font of things on the wiki.

The particular font I want to use wouldn't be on that site, though that site will come in handy in the future. Thanks you guys. If you want to specify its italic variant, copy the second block again and replace font-weight with font-style: italic. Cheers! 09:47, January 15, 2012 (UTC)
 * The problem with trying to change the font on your wiki is that fonts are processed on each individual computer. Every viewer of your wiki needs to have that font installed on their computer in order for them to see the font. If they don't, the font they see is the closest they have on their computer.--
 * According to the w3cschools description of, this method does not require that. 16:19, January 15, 2012 (UTC)
 * I'll give it a try and tell you guys how it works out.
 * Would I need to replace the urls with a custom url?
