❓ Frequently Asked Questions

How do I use these fonts on my website?

Copy the CSS code from the output panel and paste it into your stylesheet. For Google Fonts, the tool automatically includes the required <link> tags – but when you copy the CSS, you'll need to add those links to your HTML's <head>. We include commented instructions in the download.

Why don't I see the Google Font immediately?

The tool loads Google Fonts dynamically. If you don't see the change, try refreshing the font selection. All popular Google Fonts are supported.

What's a good rule for pairing fonts?

Aim for contrast – pair a serif with a sans‑serif, or a bold display font with a neutral body font. Avoid two highly decorative fonts together.

Can I add my own fonts?

This tool includes a curated list of web‑safe and Google Fonts. For custom fonts, you would need to host them and update the CSS manually.
