### How to find Google Font files?

Go to Google or DuckDuckGo and search e.g _"google fonts poppins github"_

### Step by step

1. Get your custom/Google font. The layout is based on 3 font weights. Regular (400), Medium (500 or 600), Bold (700, 800 or 900). \
   **a.** If you are using _italic_ style, then you have to upload italic font variants for all font weights.
2. Sometimes, users don't want to use medium weight. If it is your case, remember to set the **Font weight: Medium** to **400** _<mark style="background-color:yellow;">(Customization -> Google Font -> Font weight: Medium)</mark>_
3. Set the **Font Name** _(Space - Customization - Google Font - **Font Name (Body))**_
4. **Upload the font package** _<mark style="background-color:yellow;">(Space -> Advanced -> Font files)</mark>_
5. [**Add Raw SCSS code ->**](#raw-scss-to-add)
6. **Save changes**

[^1]: <mark style="color:orange;">Change this to your own URL with http:// or https://</mark>
