To get fonts from a WebFonts kit into Webflow, you need to follow these steps:

  1. Obtain the WebFonts kit: Choose a WebFonts provider, such as Google Fonts, Adobe Fonts, or Typekit, and select the fonts you want to use. Create a WebFonts kit (also known as a font kit or a font package) by configuring the desired font styles, weights, and subsets.

  2. Download the WebFonts kit: After configuring your fonts, you will be provided with a link to download the WebFonts kit. Download the kit and save it to your computer.

  3. Upload the WebFonts kit to Webflow: Login to your Webflow account and open the project where you want to use the custom fonts. Go to the "Fonts" tab in the project settings.

  4. Add custom fonts: In the "Add custom fonts" section, click on the "Upload Fonts" button. Select the WebFonts kit file that you downloaded in the previous step and upload it to your Webflow project.

  5. Assign the fonts to elements: Once the fonts are uploaded, you can assign them to specific elements on your website. In the "Fonts" tab, scroll down to the "Assign fonts" section.

  6. Select font families: Click on the "+" button to add a new font family. Give it a name and select the fonts you want to use from the uploaded WebFonts kit. You can choose different weights and styles as per your preference.

  7. Apply fonts to elements: In the Webflow Designer, select the element (text block, heading, etc.) you want to apply the custom font to. In the right-hand sidebar, under the "Typography" section, click on the font dropdown menu and select the custom font family you created. It will then be applied to the selected element.

  8. Publish your website: After you have assigned the custom fonts to the desired elements, remember to publish your website for the changes to take effect and be visible on the live site.

By following the above steps, you can easily get fonts from a WebFonts kit into Webflow and use them to enhance the typography of your website.
