Good evening,

We have just installed the Real Design template on an extisting joomla 2.5.26..
Unfortunately, the fonts are not even similar to those on the demo site :oops: One of the reason we have chosen this template. :blush:

1: Could you help us how to set those fonts, becasue in the template settings (fonts) the link to google fonts api does not work any more. We would really like to have handwritten module and content titles.
2: It is great that the font size of the text can be enlarged, but we would like to enlarge the size of both menus, because they are very difficult to read for people with glasses or of older ages.
3. The reason mentioned above makes us to change the colour of the text to a more readable one, we would like to make the contrast between background colour and font colour better, (thin , elegant grey text)

Any help would be really appreciated.

Hi

1. I can see "Cookie" font from gogle fonts working fine, so I believe You have found a way to fix that.

2. To enlarge menu font add this to override.css:

Code: Select all
#gkMainMenu > div > ul > li > a {
    font-size: 16px;
}


3. To change the color of text add this to override.css:

Code: Select all
body {
    color: #000000;
}

Hi,

Thanks a lot. We only need to solve the Hungarian accent to work with 'Cookies'.

Hi

I'm afraid Cookie only supports Latin characters. You will need a font with Latin extended. But You may ask google developers if adding fonts is possible and how.

Hi,

Thanks for your reply, I have tried to find Latin extended fonts on googleFonts. On the google site the texts were perfect, so I put the necessary link in the template mannager, but somehow the template or the joomla changes/crashes those special fonts í,ő,ű in h2 and replaces with some other font family. I tried to find a font family that does not differs a lot, so you won't realise immediately, but we will definitely need some handwriting type font, so could you suggest what I should do?
ő in h2 or content header and module header produces the same.

Hi

I cannot see any latin-extended custom font at the moment at Your site, but there is also an option to use squrrell fonts. Here is couple of articles which may help:
