# Working with newsletter fonts

In the campaign editor, you can change the default font or add a custom font to your newsletter design. This allows you to use your brand's fonts in email messaging .

## Set a default font

Not all of the available fonts may be supported by all email clients. To ensure that your design works even if a custom font you have selected is not supported, you can set a default font.

To set a default font:

1. In the left pane of the editor, click the **Settings** tab.
2. Under **General settings**, scroll down and click the **Text** drop-down menu.
3. Edit the settings of the default font for your text. You can set the following:
    - **Default Font Color** - select the font color.
    - **Default Font Size** - enter a number (or click ![updownarrow.png](https://doc.sitecore.com/api/markdown-image/send/en/users/sitecore-send/images/updownarrow.png)) to edit the text's font size.
    - **Default Line Height** - enter a number from 1 (single line) to 2 (double line) to adjust the spacing between text lines.
    - **Default Font Family** - select a font type.
    - **Background color** - select the text's background color.
    - **Border Width** - enter a number (or click ![updownarrow.png](https://doc.sitecore.com/api/markdown-image/send/en/users/sitecore-send/images/updownarrow.png)) to edit the text border's width.
    - **Border Color** - select the color of the text's border.
    - **Border Radius** - enter a number (or click ![updownarrow.png](https://doc.sitecore.com/api/markdown-image/send/en/users/sitecore-send/images/updownarrow.png)) to edit the text border's radius from 0 (rectangle) to 2000 (circle).
    - **Padding** - click ![Padding.png](https://doc.sitecore.com/api/markdown-image/send/en/users/sitecore-send/images/Padding.png) to display the padding options and enter a padding from 0 to 2000.

## Add a custom font

In the campaign editor, you can add a custom font to your newsletter design.

To add a custom font:

1. In the left pane of the editor, click the **Settings** tab and expand **Google fonts**.
2. Expand the font you want to add it as a design option, select your preferred style, and click **Add**.
3. If you now click a text item, the text editor options are displayed in the right pane. On the **Style** tab, click the fonts drop-down menu, and you can select the font you just added from the **Fonts** drop-down menu.
