Frequently Asked Questions

What makes a good font pairing?

Good pairings create contrast while maintaining harmony. Common approaches: serif + sans-serif, geometric + humanist, or different weights of the same superfamily. The key is visual contrast with complementary proportions.

Are these Google Fonts free to use?

Yes. All fonts shown are from Google Fonts, which are open-source and free for personal and commercial use. No licensing fees or attribution required.

How do I use the fonts on my website?

Copy the provided @import or <link> tag into your HTML head, then use the font-family CSS property. The tool generates ready-to-use CSS code for both heading and body fonts.

Should I use a serif heading with a sans-serif body?

It is a reliable default that works for most sites. The serif heading adds character and the sans-serif body stays clean and readable at small sizes. Aim for two fonts with similar x-heights so the pairing feels cohesive rather than mismatched.

How many fonts should I use on one site?

Two is the sweet spot, one for headings and one for body text. You can also use a single family with different weights to create hierarchy without a second typeface. More than two fonts usually makes a layout feel busy and inconsistent.
