Selecting a Font

You can choose from over 1,400 fonts on Pastelink, updated with new choices daily. Choose 'More Options' to refine the selection. Not sure? Go with Poppins, 400, 16px.

Mini Guide to font choices:

Sans Serif: Modern and easy to read, sans serif fonts are a good choice for website text.

Serif: Serif fonts have little lines and curls around each letter and were designed to help make text easier to read.

Display: Display fonts are designed for big, bold and catchy headings, use with caution! Using a higher font weight is best with these.

Handwriting: Handwriting fonts mimic the look of hand written text, but watch out for hard to read fonts! Using a bigger font size is best with these.

Monospace: Used often in earlier computing, monspace fonts have an equal width within and between each letter. Often works well when displaying code.
