How to change fonts in Recruit CRM
You can customize fonts in Recruit CRM in two ways:
1. Use the in-app editor
Open the content you want to create or edit in Recruit CRM.
From the formatting toolbar above the text editor, click the Font dropdown.
Select your preferred font from the available options.
Please note: Only WebSafe fonts are available in this dropdown to ensure consistent viewing across all devices, operating systems, and browsers.
2. Use the source code
Open the content you want to create or edit.
Click the Source icon from the formatting toolbar.
Enter or paste your custom HTML source code into the editor and apply your changes.
Please note: While you can use any font in the source code, we recommend sticking to WebSafe fonts (such as Arial, Times New Roman, Verdana) to ensure consistent appearance across different devices, operating systems, and browsers.
What happens when you use non-WebSafe fonts?
How operating systems, devices or browsers affect the font:
When content is delivered/accessed, the operating system, browser, or device checks if the specified font is available. If not, it substitutes it with a similar available font.
Example:
Using non-WebSafe fonts like Calibri, Ink-Free, Roboto, Proxima-Nova, or Ronnia may cause inconsistencies in how your content appears to users depending on their device, operating system, or browser.
To ensure consistent styling and avoid potential visibility issues, we recommend using WebSafe fonts whenever possible.
Troubleshooting
