Fonts Package

Post by QwareeqMathematics »

Hi Guys ;

How Could I add a lot of other fonts that \LaTeX use ? For example, New York Times Title font , Hand Writing font , ......etc.

Thx

Recommended reading 2024:

LaTeXguide.org • LaTeX-Cookbook.net • TikZ.org

NEW: TikZ book now 40% off at Amazon.com for a short time.

And: Currently, Packt sells ebooks for $4.99 each if you buy 5 of their over 1000 ebooks. If you choose only a single one, $9.99. How about combining 3 LaTeX books with Python, gnuplot, mathplotlib, Matlab, ChatGPT or other AI books? Epub and PDF. Bundle (3 books, add more for higher discount): https://packt.link/MDH5p

I found this website that gives several packages for the different fonts. But , the problem when I use any package , it converts all document to that font.

How could I use these fonts for such one line only in some pages or for some paragraphs ??

You might want to read this webpage on font selection in LaTeX:

You might also want to consider using XeLaTeX with the fontspec package, which should allow you to use almost any arbitrary font installed on your system:
http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/ ... /fontspec/

I know you didn't ask my opinion, but personally, I think it's bad typography to use multiple fonts in the same document, unless they're members of the same family and there is a special reason for the switch.
