To change the font in a WordPress text block, you can either use the built-in typography settings in the block editor or apply custom CSS. If the theme supports it, you can directly select a new font and adjust size settings under the “Typography” section in the block toolbar. For themes without these options, you can add custom CSS in the “Additional CSS” section of the theme customizer or use a plugin that provides more font customization features. <\/div>\n<\/div>\n
