Changing fonts

[nickmccurdy]

Lanyon uses web fonts from Google Fonts. Both PT Sans (the default font for Lanyon) and Open Sans are on Google Fonts, so you can still use Google fonts, though we will have to switch what fonts are loaded and update our CSS.

This line of HTML includes the CSS file for the PT Sans web font so that we can use it in our CSS. If you pick Open Sans on Google Fonts, they will give you a line of HTML (under "3. Add this code to your website:") that you can replace that line with to load Open Sans instead of PT Sans and PT Serif. Now, we will have to modify this in our CSS to tell the browser what text we want displayed in Open Sans. The font-family property in CSS is used to set fonts (and fallback fonts) for different elements on the page. Now we edit lanyon.css to replace all lines with font-family to use the CSS code that Google Fonts gave us under "4. Integrate the fonts into your CSS:".

That works. Thank for clarifying!
