My question, does the general font family on the body and paragraph(p) tags (Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif) load from Google Fonts or local?
Hi,
Yes, does are the general font family and as you can see in the code file ( https://www.screencast.com/t/dDy0HdCQAb96 ) and in the documentation https://forum.tagdiv.com/font-customization/ there are local load.
Thank you.

Hi,
You can find here all Robot fonts which the theme loads and you can get them with .woff extension.
Thank you for your understanding.
Hi Calin,
By “here” you mean Font Squirrel or did you forget to link something? What I need are the exact fonts (sizes) considering that the theme currently only allows 5 uploaded custom fonts. Thanks
Hi,
Sorry I forget to link: https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Open+Sans%3A300italic%2C400%2C400italic%2C600%2C600italic%2C700%7CRoboto%3A300%2C400%2C400italic%2C500%2C500italic%2C700%2C900&ver=9.0_d82
Thank you for your understanding.
Thanks for your link! To sum this up, the following custom fonts are necessary:
Open Sans italic (300-700)
Open Sans normal = Open Sans Regular (300 -600)
Roboto italic (400-500)
Roboto normal = Roboto Regular (300-900)
Only the 4 fonts (Open Sans italic, Open Sans regular, Roboto italic, Roboto regular) must be uploaded, the different sizes can be selected from the theme panel.
If you use google fonts, you can get them all from google, with all size, but if you don’t you must use custom file like dose with .woff extension

Thank you.
Correct, but using Google Fonts that way is probably not GDPR compliant. That, of course, depends on how the individual EU Member States interpret the GDPR. In Germany, the rules may be a little stricter and there are already some cases at the courts (for linking Google Fonts), but it will certainly still take some time before a judgement in principle will be reached. But therefore I wouldn’t recommend it.
Another advantage could be that fonts on the same server should load faster than linked ones.
I figured out that in order to load all default used fonts locally, the theme would need 6 spots for uploading custom fonts. It provides only 5.
Font type and weight settings are not working for uploaded fonts. E.g. You can’t generate “Roboto Bold” by setting “Roboto Regular” to 700 weight (corresponding to Roboto Bold).
So the needed fonts (used by tagdiv default) are:
Open Sans Italic
Open Sans Regular
Open Sans Bold
Roboto italic
Roboto Regular
Roboto Bold
6 Fonts but the theme provides only 5 spots. Please add another spot with future updates.
Thank you for your understanding.
