Adding Custom Fonts
Custom fonts are those that aren't built-in to your system. They can include fonts you purchase or specially branded fonts your company uses. If you don't see the font you want to use in Builder by default, but you have the font files, you can upload them to Builder for use in your projects.
This document shows you how to do the following:
👉Tip: Any fonts already installed in your Shopify theme or site's CSS automatically work with Builder and Builder Theme Studio–you do not need to add them separately.
Uploading your font
Navigate to the Account Settings section of your account.
Select the pencil icon next to Custom fonts.
Click on the placeholder Custom font 1 to expand its settings.
Click Upload and select your font.
Notice that to delete a font, you click Delete in this same dialogue. You can always come back here to manage your fonts later.
Click the Save button.
