Maintaining a Font

Introduction

You can import fonts in Communication Cloud Service. Fonts in Communication Cloud Service can be used either to configure a default font, or to configure a font and apply styles to it. When generating communication outputs, the default font is applied, only if the style (font family, weight and style) is not applied to the Document, Content and Layout configurations. The applied styles take the precedence and override the default font settings.

If the initial Config ID used for importing the Font is closed, and if you want to edit the Font details, see Editing a Configuration after Closing the Config ID.
