Use default fonts

Default fonts can be used in all types of content and are designed to load on most platforms and devices.

- Website Pages: In your HubSpot account, navigate to Marketing > Website > Website Pages.
- Landing Pages: In your HubSpot account, navigate to Marketing > Landing Pages.
- Blog: In your HubSpot account, navigate to Marketing > Website > Blog.
- Knowledge Base: In your HubSpot account, navigate to Service > Knowledge Base.

Use web fonts

Web fonts are available by default in the content editor for pages using starter templates and themes, as well as knowledge base articles and custom modules. If you're a developer, you can also use the font field to add web fonts to themes and custom modules. When used in these ways, web fonts are not loaded from a third-party service, but rather HubSpot will serve them directly on the domain that the page loads on.

Please note: web fonts cannot be selected in the font dropdown menu of the rich text editor.

You can also use third-party services such as Google Fonts by copying the font's import code, pasting it into the page's stylesheet, then applying the font through CSS:

Navigate to fonts.google.com.
In the search bar, enter a font name.
Click the font name to view a list of styles available to import.
Next to each style you want to import, click + Select this style
In the right panel, select @import in the Use on the web section.
Copy the font's code:
- In the Use on the web section, copy the @import code without the <style> tag.
- In the CSS rules to specify families field, copy the code for setting CSS rules.

Once you have the code from Google Fonts, you can add the font to your HubSpot content:

Use custom fonts

As an alternative to using standard web fonts or using a font library like Google Fonts, you can host font files in the files tool, then reference them in your stylesheet.

Please note: custom fonts are only available in accounts with access to the design manager and need to be applied with CSS. Adding a custom font will not add the font to styling dropdown menus in the content editor.

To use a font in content, upload the font's files to the files tool. HubSpot recommends uploading a minimum of the .woff, .ttf, & .eot versions of the font to ensure your font loads on all browsers. You can use the Expert mode on Font Squirrel's converter tool to generate additional file formats.

In your HubSpot account, navigate to Marketing > Files and Templates > Files.
Click Upload files.
On your computer's hard drive, select the font files, then click Open.
Click the name of an uploaded font file.
In the right panel, click Copy URL to copy the URL where the file is hosted. You will need the URL for the font in each file format.

Use a custom font in a stylesheet

Once you've added a custom font to the files tool, you can reference it in a stylesheet. Each font style (italics, bold, etc.) will require a separate @font-face rule. Learn more about working with stylesheets in HubSpot.

In your HubSpot account, navigate to Marketing > Files and Templates > Design Tools.
In the finder, open the stylesheet used for your content.
For each font style:
- At the top of the stylesheet, paste the following code:

@font-face { font-family: 'Your Font Name'; src: url('your_font_file.eot?') format('eot'), url('your_font_file.woff') format('woff'), url('your_font_file.ttf') format('truetype');}

- Replace Your Font Name with the name of the font.
- Replace your_font_file.xxx? with the URL from the files tool. Repeat for each file format.
Create CSS rules with the font-family property to apply the custom font.
In the top right, click Update or Publish to take your changes live.

Use a custom font in a custom coded email template

Custom fonts aren't supported in most popular email clients. To ensure a consistent experience for your readers, using default web fonts in emails is recommended. However, if you’d like to add a custom font to a custom coded email template, you can do so once you’ve added the custom font to the files tool.

In your HubSpot account, navigate to Marketing > Files and Templates > Design Tools.
In the finder, open the custom coded email template.
For each font style:
- In the <head> section of the template, paste this code between the <style>....</style> tags:

@font-face { font-family: 'Your Font Name'; src: url('your_font_file.eot?') format('eot'), url('your_font_file.woff') format('woff'), url('your_font_file.ttf') format('truetype');}

- Replace Your Font Name with the name of the font.
- Replace your_font_file.xxx? with the URL from the files tool. Repeat for each file format.
In the code of the email body, add the custom font in inline styling.
In the top right, click Update or Publish to take your changes live.

Use a custom font in a CTA (legacy)

Once you've added a custom font to the files tool, you can use it in CTAs:

In your HubSpot account, navigate to Marketing > Lead Capture > CTAs.
In the top left, click the dropdown menu and select CTAs (Legacy).
