#  Uploading fonts

As well as access to our extensive built-in font system, DPG allows you to upload your own custom fonts to use on your websites.

> ⚠️ **Warning:** Make sure that any fonts you upload are legally eligible for web embedding and that you're complying with all applicable licenses.

### Preparing fonts for upload

To use a custom font you'll need to supply it in **all** of the following file types:

* .eot
* .ttf
* .woff
* .woff2

You can also include an **optional** .svg file. The .svg is no longer required by most modern operating systems, but can help some older machines render your font correctly, so include it if possible. 

You may need to convert your font to the required file types. There are a number of online services to do that, such as [Font Squirrel](https://www.fontsquirrel.com/tools/webfont-generator) and [Everything Fonts](https://everythingfonts.com/). 

### Uploading fonts to DPG
