Google Font does not appear in the Puldown of Helix Ultimate

Asked by Patrick Ladner 2 years ago Last activity 2 years ago

Hi

I would like to define the Google font 'Reddit Sans' in Helix Ultimate for the H1-H6. But the font does not appear in the list of Google fonts.

Do you have a solution for this?

PS:
I was able to install it in SPPB 5 without any problems.

Many thanks for your help

Hi Patrick.

Indeed that font is not on the list yet.
In that case you have to add it manually in a few basic steps:

  1. Go to: https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Reddit+Sans?query=Reddit+Sans
  2. Click "Get Font" button (blue)
  3. Click "Get Embed Code" button
  4. In Helix Template Options > Custom Code (tab):
  • In area "Before < / head>" paste code from Google Font section "Embed code in the <head> of your html"
  • In area "Custom CSS" paste
body, p, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, li, a, span 
{  font-family: "Reddit Sans", sans-serif;
  font-optical-sizing: auto;
 font-weight: <weight>;
  font-style: normal;
}

strong, b  {font-family: "Reddit Sans", sans-serif;  font-weight: 700;}

If you want to use on whole site use above CSS, or select one HTML tag only.

  1. Save Helix settings.
  2. Remember to disable Typography tabs (!) in Template Options.
