Looks like you can buy the font here for $40

then upload it to your site, add the font declaration in your style.css.
Thank you for the message. I did buy it about a year ago but what route would I take to upload it to the site? I’ve tried just using CSS without it being uploaded and it doesn’t quite appear right.
Many thanks again for the quick response.
It doesn’t really matter where the font file is, only the URL has to be correct, adding this line to the top of style.css, something like:
@font-face {
font-family: 'TitlingGothicFBMediumComp';
src:url('fonts/TitlingGothicFBMediumComp.eot');
}
in this example, a folder called font is created in your current theme’s folder.
Did you license the font for desktop or webfont use? It does not appear that the particular font you want to use is available to be licensed as a webfont. If that is the case, uploading it to use on your site would probably be viewed as unlicensed distribution & only way to use it legally would be to create a graphic of your text & upload the graphic.
If your design could use a similar font such as Vernon Adam’s Oswald instead, it is available to use for free from google fonts and would be a more practical alternative. Woothemes support will be able to tell you how to use it on canvas, which I believe supports google fonts as standard.
I discovered that I purchased the desktop version. To get it for a website it runs around $1,000 a year. I considered doing the upload option but I don’t want to get sued for copyright issues. Many thanks for everyone’s help.
