I have found a font that I like and I want to use it in XeLaTeX but I have no idea what to do. I have downloaded the specific font and installed it although I don't know if I should have done that. Generally what should I do in in order to use a new font? Do I have to install it? Then what do I have to write in the preamble? Thank you!
You need to use the fontspec
-package:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{fontspec}
\setmainfont{<your font name>}
\begin{document}
This text should be set in your new wonder-font
\end{document}
You need the font installed on your system, so no harm done there.
