Fonts

Hi Sarah, 

You would need to add it in with css, for example like explained here CSS Google Fonts

or if using the zip file option, you can add the fonts into there and reference them in your css.

Thank you. I'm not doing the zip option, just adding the code straight in. The problem is it's not a google font, is there any other way for a non google font? 

Is there any way to have the block inherit the course's theme font, particularly if that font is a custom upload?

You can call webfonts in CSS without an issue. We use Open Sans and use Verdana for activities:

    body {
      font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;
      font-size: 1.1rem;
      margin: 0;
      padding: 1rem;
      background-color: white;
      color: #333;
    }

I asked Copilot what the best webfont for Open Sans. I think it looks pretty decent:

I made a screen recording showing my recommended method for adding Google fonts to a Code Block-
