Ablity to add fonts

Now this is just an idea and future wish but it would be nice to be able to add a font say if you purchase one or have ones other than Google Fonts. This way a person can get a little more fancy with the header or even if they want the other areas. Just an idea I have been playing with over the last few months just to set my page apart from others. Again this is just an idea and or wish. Even better would be to have the font show up in the list if you upload it correctly within the template.

cheers.

Hi Greg,
I did think about this in the past, however it is not so straight-forward.
One problem is that people often dont realize the template can be switched by the visitor to a different design and language. This can then cause serious problems in the template, especially the fonts.
I always choose carefully those fonts, which not only scale well in all languages, but also display correctly. If I look at Google Fonts, over half of the fonts would not show Czech correctly because they only have the English letters of the alphabet. And it is usually the more fancy and exotic fonts which have this problem - and the same problem would be for German, Greek, French etc.
