We recommend using either:

We show how to change the Font Family used by each element in our Joomla! CMS Guide.
Google Fonts
WYNCHCO Templates enable the use of self-hosted Google font families, removing the need for browsers to make remote calls to the Google server every time a website page loads.
The resulting faster page load times help improve search engine marketing performance and user experience.
Risk of non-compliance with GDPR regulations is also reduced.
Font Awesome Icons
In addition, the default Joomla! CMS facilitates the use of the FontAwesome font family.
You can use Font Awesome Icons to signpost website elements including the Home Page menu link, external links, PDF links, and so on.
Accessibility
Text

Change default value to 'WCAG metric' when you want to test for no loss of content or functionality.
Change default value of:
- Letter Spacing,
- Word Spacing,
- Paragraph Spacing, and
- Heading 2, 3 and 4 Spacing.
