Hey,
I managed to change the font on a child version of the theme. Caution: I'm very new with Hugo so it's probably not the best way, but it works :) In this example, our new font-family is Fengardoneue.
/static/fonts/
node_modules/@hyas/doks/assets/scss/common/_variables.scss
to assets/scss/common/_variables.scss
assets/scss/common/_variables.scss
to assets/scss/common/_variablesCustom.scss
node_modules/@hyas/doks/assets/scss/app.scss
to assets/scss/app.scss
assets/scss/app.scss
, replace @import "common/variables";
by @import "common/variablesCustom";
custom.scss
in assets/scss/common/
/* fengardoneue - latin */
@font-face {
font-family: "Fengardoneue";
font-style: normal;
font-weight: 400;
font-display: swap;
src:
local("Fengardoneue"),
url("fonts/Fengardoneue/fengardoneue_regular.woff2") format("woff2"),
url("fonts/Fengardoneue/fengardoneue_regular.woff") format("woff"); /* Chrome 6+, Firefox 3.6+, IE 9+, Safari 5.1+ */
}
/ fengardoneue black - latin / @font-face { font-family: "Fengardoneue"; font-style: normal; font-weight: 800; font-display: swap; src: local("Fengardoneue_black"), url("fonts/Fengardoneue/fengardoneue_black.woff2") format("woff2"), url("fonts/Fengardoneue/fengardoneue_black.woff") format("woff"); / Chrome 6+, Firefox 3.6+, IE 9+, Safari 5.1+ / }
5. Finally, in `assets/scss/common/_variablesCustom.scss` replace `$font-family-sans-serif: "Jost", -apple-system, blinkmacsystemfont, "Segoe UI", roboto, "Helvetica Neue", arial, "Noto Sans", sans-serif, "Apple Color Emoji", "Segoe UI Emoji", "Segoe UI Symbol", "Noto Color Emoji";` by `$font-family-sans-serif: "Fengardoneue", "Jost", -apple-system, blinkmacsystemfont, "Segoe UI", roboto, "Helvetica Neue", arial, "Noto Sans", sans-serif, "Apple Color Emoji", "Segoe UI Emoji", "Segoe UI Symbol", "Noto Color Emoji";` — (I just added it to let Jost as a backup).
Et voilà!
Hope it helps ^^
I have successfully changed the font following @ImaCrea's instructions. Thank you!
But I encountered a problem as leoplct at the beginning. When editing the file _custom.scss
in step 7, I used a tff
font, but it kept using the original one. After I changed the tff
file to woff/woff2
, it worked immediately.
I'm entirely new to web development, so I don't know why. Maybe the problem raised by leoplct is also caused by this because I noticed that the _fonts.scss
file provided also uses tff
fonts.
Any reason for using ttf
?
Although regular OpenType fonts (TTF and OTF files) can be used as web fonts, such usage is not recommended as it usually contravenes license agreements—and the files are significantly larger.
Source: Web font
I recommend converting ttf
to woff2
with a tool like e.g. TTF to WOFF2 Converter
No special reason, just because the font file I got is ttf
, and I have no experience with using fonts.
By the way, I love the design of doks, thanks for your work, and it would be better if there is documentation on how to change the font.
Thanks + noted
