Can I upload a custom font to big cartel

I have a certain font which I use on my business cards and for the sake of consistency I would like to use them on my site. I am not finding a way to upload the font and cannot find it in the customization menus. Help would be greatly appreciated!

Yes you can upload a custom font using the @fontface feature in CSS, but you'll need to have access to a server to store and upload it from. I used the Luna theme and this worked like a charm:

Insert this code into your CSS file and replace the URL with the proper location of your font:

@font-face {
    font-family: CustomFontName;
    src: url(http://yourserver.com/fonts/customfontname.ttf); 
}

I chose to put mine in the 'Elements/Shared' section of my theme, a little ways down from the beginning of your CSS file.

Then change this section of your CSS:

/* Body Font */
body,
.product_header h3,
.product_header h5,
#product_inventory li h5,
#cart_items li .item_option,
#cart_summary li h3,
#social_links li h4,
.standalone .canvas p
{ font-family: {{ theme.body_font | font_family }}; }


/* Header Font */
h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6,
.button,
#error li,
#site_footer ul,
#site_footer #search input,
#main_nav li,
#cart_items li dt,
#cart_items li dd,
#cart_options #cart_discount p,
#cart_summary li span,
.standalone .canvas h1, input,
#cart_items li .quantity_input input
{ font-family: {{ theme.header_font | font_family }}; }

To this:

/* Body Font */
body,
.product_header h3,
.product_header h5,
#product_inventory li h5,
#cart_items li .item_option,
#cart_summary li h3,
#social_links li h4,
.standalone .canvas p
{ font-family: CustomFontName; }


/* Header Font */
h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6,
.button,
#error li,
#site_footer ul,
#site_footer #search input,
#main_nav li,
#cart_items li dt,
#cart_items li dd,
#cart_options #cart_discount p,
#cart_summary li span,
.standalone .canvas h1, input,
#cart_items li .quantity_input input
{ font-family:CustomFontName; }

And you should be all set, the font will be changed throughout your theme. This has only been tested on the Luna theme, but I imagine this should work universally across all of the themes.

To make this work cross browser you need to access your .htaccess file on the server where the font is hosted and add the following line:

Header set Access-Control-Allow-Origin "*"
