What Is Google Fonts Preview?

The Google Fonts Preview tool lets you explore and preview popular Google Fonts with full typography controls. Google Fonts provides hundreds of free, open-source fonts optimized for the web. This tool features 30 of the most popular selections, searchable by name. For each font, you can preview with custom sample text and adjust font size, weight (100-900), letter spacing, and line height. A multi-weight preview shows the font at different weights side by side, helping you evaluate its range of styles. The generated CSS includes the Google Fonts @import URL and the font-family declaration with size, weight, spacing, and line height properties.

Technical Guide

Google Fonts serves font files through a CDN with automatic format selection (woff2 for modern browsers). The @import method adds fonts via CSS: @import url('https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=Inter:wght@400;600;700&display=swap'); The family parameter specifies the font and weights. The display=swap parameter uses font-display: swap for immediate text visibility with a fallback font while the web font loads. Multiple fonts are separated by &family= parameters. For performance, request only the weights you need. Variable fonts (available for many Google Fonts) provide all weights in a single file using wght@100..900 syntax. Font subsetting can further reduce file size by loading only needed character ranges: &text=Hello or subset=latin parameters. Use the font-family property with fallback fonts: font-family: 'Inter', system-ui, sans-serif.

Tips & Best Practices

  • 1
    Request only the font weights you actually use for better performance
  • 2
    Use font-display: swap to prevent invisible text during loading
  • 3
    Test fonts with your actual content, not just Lorem Ipsum
  • 4
    Consider variable fonts for maximum weight flexibility in a single file
