Using fonts
One of the most dramatic ways to change your site's appearance is to change the
fonts used in your artistic text, frame text, or table text. Applying different fonts
to a character or entire paragraph can communicate very different messages to
your intended readership.
Font assignment is very simple in WebPlus, and can be done from the Fonts
tab, Text context toolbar, or in the Character dialog (via right-click, or from
the Text menu).
The Fonts tab is switched off by default, but can be viewed by clicking
Show Fonts Tab (Studio toolbar). The Fonts tab is located on the left of your
workspace.
Websafe fonts are a specially selected and configurable subset of fonts which
offer the best font matches between your site (during design) and your web
visitors' computers (during browsing).
Generally speaking, it is advisable to keep to the standard list of Websafe fonts
shown in the Fonts tab unless you can be sure of font usage amongst your target
audience.
To assign a font:
• Select some text, then click on the font name in the Fonts tab to assign
the font to the text.
