Hi Jennine,

Thanks for reaching out.

Have you added the font Baskerville as custom font? I checked Google font and it has Libre Baskerville instead of Baskerville. But regardless, I can’t find any definition of @font-face for Baskerville and I created a sample text with Baskerville font styling and it doesn’t work which only means, that the font files for Baskerville aren’t loading or not declared. Would you mind providing your admin login credentials in the secure note so I could check it?

Please also note that builder elements has its font setting that you have to change as well, or simply let it set to inherit so it would inherit the font declared in Typography. I checked the content of that page and fonts are set to Helvetica instead of inherit, please change them in the builder as well.

Thanks!

Hello,
I tried the inherit but that didn’t work either. Thanks for your help

Hi @Jennine,

The inherit works, the only texts that aren’t set to Lato are the texts on Core Value section. I compared the texts set to inherit and it correctly match my Lato texts.

And the reason Baskerville isn’t working even if you set it to inherit is that it’s a system font. Which will only work on devices that have that font. Mostly works on Mac and not on Windows. For that, I recommend using google fonts, please check this https://theme.co/apex/forum/t/font-manager/101. Then once you created or added your font, you should enable the Font Manager in Theme Options > Typography as well and assign the font to body and head. Again, the builder elements should remain its font to inherit, unless you wish to display different font.

Thanks!
