I finish the post by showing you how to add a Google font to your web page in DoTenX.

Go the the Page Settings > Head Code:

Copy the link of the font that Google font gives you and paste it in Head Code section and click Save.

Now you can simply type in the name of the new font (Inter in our example) and Add it. From now on, you can use this font everywhere in your page.
