Typekit Fonts for WordPress

Description

Embed and use Typekit fonts in your WordPress website without having to edit your theme!

Typekit offer a service that allows you to select from a range of hundreds of high quality fonts for your WordPress website. The fonts are applied using the font-face standard, so they are standards compliant, fully licensed and accessible.

To use this plugin you need to sign up with Typekit, install this plugin and then either configure some Typekit selectors or define your own CSS rules. Typekit selectors provide a quick and easy way to get fonts enabled on your site. Using your own CSS rules (as explained in Typekit’s Advanced tips) gives you more control and lets you access additional attributes such as font-weight. This plugin allows you to create your own CSS rules that use Typekit fonts without the need to edit/upload CSS style sheets.

Detailed instructions are available on the plugin’s settings page.

This plugin by default uses Typekit’s CSS embed code. However if you prefer, you can use the asynchronous Javascript embed.

Compatible with WordPress Multisite.

I was working on optimization of a site. Initial js script loading from your plugin was creating render blocking, even though fonts loaded using async technique. Today I saw your update, it looks like initial script is loaded asynchronously now and it is removed from render blocking, checked with google pagespeed insights. Thank you 🙂

Makes using Typekit Fonts a total breeze. I probably won't use Google Fonts much any more as this is so easy. I especially found the CSS box in the settings very helpful so I didn't have to alter my theme or child theme in any way.

I installed the plugin and went and created a free account at TypeKit. I was under the impression that the font would just automatically take over. But the font only works for css that I specify. Still pretty good, easy to use, just wish it would automatically take over.
