Global Typography – Astra Theme

Typography plays the most important role in the UX of a website. Therefore, we’ve focused on giving you a number of typography options that will help you customize your fonts using the Astra theme.

Astra’s global typography module is one of its most powerful features, allowing you to customize the typography of your entire website from a single location. In this article, we’ll look at Astra’s global typography module and how you can use it to improve the typography on your website.

To access the Typography options, Navigate to your WordPress dashboard and click on Appearance > Customize > Global > Typography. You will find the following options inside the Typography module.

Presets:

Presets are the shortcuts that you can use to change the fonts of the body and the headers with just one click. There are 6 presets that you can use to change the font styles of your website. See the image below for more information.

Base Fonts:

Base fonts let you choose the font styling of your website manually. Here you can change the font of the body of your website as well as the headings manually.

Body Font:

Font Family

Astra allows you to use System Fonts, Google Fonts, Typekit Fonts as well as Custom Fonts on your site. Refer a document that will explain how you can select a font with Astra.

You can easily include Custom Fonts with Astra without adding a single line of code.

Heading Font:

You can set common font style and individual font size for all Headings – H1 to H6

Note: If you are using a page builder, you can override the above Typography with the page builder’s Typography settings for specific sections.

Heading Font Capitalization

The Astra theme offers a heading font capitalization option in the Global Typography settings. You can choose between lowercase, uppercase, or title-style capitalization for your headings. This feature allows you to customize the appearance of your headings to align with your website’s design and branding preferences. It enhances the overall typography options and helps create a cohesive visual identity for your site.
