Is there a quicker way to try the fonts on Newspaper?

Hi! I know that’s an odd question but its too hard and time consuming to try the fonts.

Go to theme panel > theme fonts > select the font name from the list > save settings > go to your website > refresh > see if it looks good.

This process is realy too long. Is there any way to fasten this process, like seeing the font preview instantly? Or is there any place where we can do it quicker? Or see some featured fonts to use in Newspaper?

There are some great tools online to preview fonts, easily enough:

Google has an entire site where you can preview fonts, and font combinations very easily.

Same with “web safe” groups, aka “font stacks.”

SEE:
https://fonts.google.com/

and
https://www.cssfontstack.com/

Thanks for the answer. Even tough the sites you shared are useful, my wish was to see a preview of my website with that fonts quickly. Those sites doesn’t solve that problem but, still useful websites. Thank you for sharing!

I usually go and work through the previews (I do it on my iPad, actually), and kind of pick some font combos I like; then I got try those in the theme to see how they look “everywhere….” quick way to at least determine which ones *not* to preview 🙂

I’ve moved to only using the web safe font stack, as all modern browsers have builtin fonts so that you don’t have to load any fonts at all from site or CDN, and look good everywhere, and no load time at all.
