This feature is available for Enterprise and White Label plans only
Consistent typography is one of the simplest ways to make your event feel polished and on-brand. With Accelevents' global font setting, you can apply a single typeface across all of your attendee-facing touchpoints—your event pages, emails, pdf attachments, and (soon) the attendee app—so everything looks cohesive without having to adjust each element individually.
You can either choose from the built-in font options or upload your own custom font to match your organization's brand guidelines. This article walks you through both approaches, explains where the font will and won't appear, and covers a few exceptions to keep in mind.
Apply a Global Font
Access your Enterprise or White Label Dashboard
Go to Settings > Branding
Select an available font from the dropdown
Click Save
Upload and Apply Your Own Font
Access your Enterprise or White Label Dashboard
Go to Settings > Branding
Click Manage under Custom Fonts
Click + Add Custom Font
Upload your font files (.woff2, .woff, .ttf, .otf (max. 10 MB per file, up to 10 files). You will need to upload 6 files for different font weights (Regular, Italic, Medium, Medium Italic, Semi Bold, Bold)
Assign the font file to the correct font weight. If you didn't upload 6 files, you'll need to choose the system's default font for the others. You can click Upload Files at the bottom to add more. Click Save when you're done.
Choose your custom font from the dropdown
Click Save
Where the font will and won't appear
Standard Web Pages
The font will apply to all the text on your web pages (e.g. standard landing page, virtual event hub, and confirmation pages)
There are some exceptions - it will not apply for text that that are added through the content editor such as the description in the about page and the disclaimer message, as the content editor has its own font and text settings.
Invoice and Ticket
Your global font will also apply to the downloaded invoice and ticket pdf if the font select is Global Font.
Advanced Pages
For advanced pages, your global font will apply if the font selected is Global Font.
Confirmation and Reminder Emails
Your global font will also apply to the confirmation emails and reminder emails if you're using the advanced template and the font select is Global Font. It will not apply for engage emails.
Why doesn't my global font appear in emails?
This is expected and not an error. Unlike your event pages, emails display using the recipient's email client (Gmail, Outlook, Apple Mail, etc.), and many of these don't support custom fonts—so they substitute one of their own defaults instead. This is a limitation of email clients, not Accelevents. For the most consistent results across inboxes, choose a widely supported "web-safe" font such as Arial, Georgia, Verdana, or Times New Roman as your global font.
Attendee App
Your Global Font will also apply in the attendee app soon, stay tuned for updates!
The admin console will still have the system's default font, the global font will only apply to attendee-facing pages.
