Using Non-System Fonts in your Websites

Using Google Fonts hosting service

With Google fonts and other font hosting services, you can take advantage of their font options which are already hosted online whether you work with DW for your site development or not.

Simply by linking to their fonts online, you can transform the appearance of your type without having to download files, convert files or upload files to your server, or add any complicated content to your stylesheets.

Using Adobe Edge Fonts

Adobe Edge Fonts are integrated into your DW workflow. You can access a large selection of licensed fonts directly through the CSS Designer

Reasons why you should care:

• Type is one of the Elements of Design and should be considered as part of the mood and aesthetic presentation of your content.
• Type design is a critical part of information architecture and visual hierarchy.
• Type is the most common way we communicate on the Web and therefore its thoughtful presentation will contribute to success of the website.
