To upload a .otf font to Shopify, follow these steps:

  1. First, log in to your Shopify account.
  2. In the Shopify dashboard, go to "Online Store" and then click on "Themes".
  3. In the Themes section, click on "Actions" and select "Edit code".
  4. In the left-hand sidebar, navigate to the "Assets" folder.
  5. Click on "Add a new asset" and choose the .otf font file from your computer to upload it to the Assets folder.
  6. Once the font file is uploaded, you will see it listed in the Assets folder.
  7. Now, you need to add the font to your theme's stylesheet. In the left-hand sidebar, click on "assets" and then select the file where you want to add the font (usually theme.scss.liquid or theme.css.liquid).
  8. In the file editor, use the @font-face rule to define the font and specify its source and format. Here is an example of how the code might look:


@font-face { font-family: 'CustomFont'; src: url('{{'customfont.otf' | asset_url}}') format('opentype'); }

  1. Save the changes to the stylesheet file.
  2. Finally, apply the font to your Shopify website by adding the font-family property to the appropriate elements in your theme's stylesheet. For example:


body { font-family: 'CustomFont', sans-serif; }

  1. Save your changes and check your website to see if the font has been successfully uploaded and applied. If not, double-check the file path and font-family name in the stylesheet.


That's it! You have successfully uploaded a .otf font to Shopify and applied it to your website.
