# Add a font face

Add a new style such as bold or italic to your custom font family in Theme Builder.

## Before you begin

Role required: ui\_builder\_admin

For information on granular roles, see .

**Note:** Upload a custom font family before adding individual font faces. This ensures each style is correctly grouped under its font family.

## About this task

Font faces are applied individually to components, as needed. Theme Builder does not yet support variable type fonts.

## Procedure

1.  Navigate to **All** > **Now Experience Framework** > **Theme Builder**.

    The Theme Builder landing page appears in the Home page view.

2.  Use the Page drop-down list to select the Editor page view.

    Alternatively, drag your font face file from your computer's file browser and drop the file directly into the modal.

    **Note:** Make sure that the font face meets the following guidelines or the file isn’t saved.
