Hey lovely Shopify-Community,

Do you know a way to manually change a font of a specific block on the website? (without changing the 2 standard fonts - As standard fonts I have set “Old Standard TT” + “Montserrat Semi Bold”)

Maybe with the CSS option?

At this specific example I would like to change the

→ Product title into: Montserrat “semi bold”

→ And the text below into: Arrapey “regular” (like at the old theme → picture is attached)

Here the ideal outcome:
