Hosting fonts locally

Hi,

I'm currently using the fonts that Brizy offers, which I believe are Google fonts.

1) Are they hosted locally with the Brizy builder on my web hosts' server or on Google's servers?

2) If they're externally hosted, can I download and upload them using Brizy's font uploader, to make it stop making requests to Google's servers?

Thanks.

  Hi Chinthaka,

  1. By default, the Brizy builder uses Google hosted fonts. 
  2. You can download it from fonts.google.com in TTF format and upload it to your your hosting server.

  Please follow these steps

  • List the fonts you employ on your website.
  • Visit https://fonts.google.com, conduct a font search, and then click the "Download Family" button to download the font family. You will download a ZIP file containing font files in TTF format.
  • Extract the ZIP file to a folder on your computer
  • Upload the font to Brizy. When uploading Roboto, give it the name Roboto Local.
  • Change Global Typographies to use the recently uploaded local fonts.
  • Change the default font (fall back font) from Lato to one of the local fonts you have uploaded.
