Hi mankaran,

In `style.css` of your theme there are multiple instance of: font-family: helveticaneue; As Helvetica Neue is not a standard web-safe font and since it's nomenclature can vary from system to system you may want to use something more like: font-family: "Helvetica Neue", "HelveticaNeue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; When using a non web-safe fonts it is always good to provide suitable alternatives if the font is not available.

Another alternative is to use a webfont (@font-face) to serve up the font.

Hope that helps!

What do you mean by not working? Specifying a font with CSS should work the same way, for example: body {

   font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;

}

Your site says, "Error establishing a database connection" right now so I can't see what is happening.

Thanks, Michael
