Introduction

Font is a set of characters (such as, letters, numbers, symbols) defined by the features such as size, weight, style, and spacing, that share a specific style, size or consistent design. Fonts are a fundamental component of content development in Communication Cloud Service. They define how characters of the content are displayed in communication output.

Communication Cloud Service lets you import font files, and associate them with specific style configurations to manage communication across various output formats such as, PDF, CSV, and HTML.

The default font in Communication Cloud Service is applied when no specific style (font family, weight and style) is applied to the Document, Content and Layout configurations. If you choose to configure styles and apply them to the Document, Content and Layout configurations, then those styles takes the precedence and overrides the default font settings.

It is recommended to configure at least four default fonts (Regular, Bold, Italic, Bold-italic) for generating the communication output. This ensures that all texts are styled and displayed properly.

The recommended naming convention of the default fonts is as follows:

• Default Regular
• Default Bold
• Default Italic
• Default Bold Italic

Configuration Movement

Configuring Font follows the configuration movement process; that is, if you are importing a font in one environment (Non-Production), you can move the configuration to different environments (Pre-Production and Production).
