Fresh & Clean custom fonts not working

Hi, I changed to Fresh & Clean, which I love by the way, and upgraded to the Customer Design. I installed a Font Typekit, one for all heading and one for all other text. After installing the custom fonts and saving the Typekit ID, the font for all other text seems to be working, but the font I chose for the headings is not showing on my blog. The headings are all showing in a different font than the one I set in my Typekit. I hope this makes sense….

Any ideas what I need to do to get the Heading font to show on my blog too?

The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

What is the name of the font you wanted to show up for the post/page titles (I assume that is what you are wanting)?

Hi thesacredpath, yes exactly that is what I meant ;-)

Vera Sans by Bitstream for all headings (Blog title, Post title, Sidebar and Comments headings).

Droid Sans by Google Android for all body copy – this font seems to show.

Add this to your custom CSS, or if you already have these in there, do the font declarations like I have them. I’ve left the two separate in case you wanted to adjust the sizes (the 1.188em values).
```
.entry-title {
font: 1.188em vera-sans-1,vera-sans-2,arial,san-serif !important;
}

.widget-title {
font: 1.188em vera-sans-1,vera-sans-2,arial,san-serif !important;
}
```

Thank you soooo much thesacredpath! I have added that to my CSS and the font is now showing as it should :-)

You’re a star!

You are welcome. It is a little difficult with typekit fonts to figure out exactly how they name them in CSS. What I gave seemed to work, but the problem was I was not familiar with the look of that font.

I wouldn’t have know where to start naming the typekit fonts in CSS, so you did a million times better than I ever could have done :-)

Thank you again. The blog looks so much better now, well at least I think so ;-)
