Can I replace a font with my preferred one in Webflow without having to manually change each piece of text individually?

TL;DR
  • Update the Body (All Pages) tag to change the default font across the site.
  • Modify global typography classes to apply font changes to all elements using those styles.
  • Reset inline font overrides on elements that don’t update automatically.
  • If using a custom font, upload it via Project Settings > Fonts and apply it accordingly.

Yes, you can replace a font across your entire Webflow project without manually updating each text element. Here’s how to do it efficiently:

1. Change the Font at the Global Level

  • Go to the Style Guide (or create one if you haven't).
  • Select the Body (All Pages) tag, which controls the default typography for the entire site.
  • Update the Font Family to your preferred typeface.
  • If specific text elements have custom font overrides, they may not update automatically.

2. Use Webflow’s Typography Classes

  • If you've applied a global class (e.g., "Heading Style" or "Body Text") to text elements, updating the font in that class will update all instances at once.
  • Go to any text element using that class, update the font, and Webflow will apply it across the project.

3. Remove Inline Font Overrides

  • If some text elements don’t change, they might have inline styles or unique font selections applied.
  • Select those elements and reset the font style in the Typography section of the Style panel.

4. Update Custom Fonts if Necessary

  • If switching to a custom font, upload it via Project Settings > Fonts and then apply it using the above methods.

Summary

You can replace a font globally by updating the Body (All Pages) tag, applying the new font through global typography classes, and removing inline font overrides. This ensures consistency without manual updates.
