Important
- Due to limitations of both WordPress TnyMCE editor and Adobe Web Fonts method of loading, you can’t see preview of Adobe Web Fonts inside the Editor. Once the post is saved and displayed in the frontend, Adobe font you used will show as expected.
- Setting font and styles for selector rules might not have effect on the front end display if other CSS styles loaded on the page have rules that have higher priority. If the plugin Important properties don’t help, you need to write better selector rules for plugin to use.
- End result for settings and styles configured by the plugin may be different from preview due to additional influence of the styling of the theme stylesheet, browser or other external factors. Also, not all CSS properties are supported by older browsers.
