Hello Peter,
to add new fonts, just go in to the template settings (or in any module where the text panel is present), click on "Other fonts".
You can choose from those proposed by Incomedia or upload others from the "Web Font" panel.
I'm attaching screeshots to you.
Hope to been helpful.
Hello.Yes it is possible.

Thanks for the reply!
BUT I noticed that when I was to show my page for a client, the font I was using was not installed on his computer and another font was selected - how can I embed a font that will also appear on other's computers even if they do nothas the font installed?

Peter, once you have added a google font and used it then the font will be retrieved directly from fonts.google and effectively embedded in your site, but this does require internet access.
Were you displaying a local copy on a PC or had you uploaded the site (perhaps to a dummy directory) and displaying it from the web (this SHOULD always work).
Peter,
It will be there, did you refresh the browser so it can update changes?
Press ctrl-F5 or F5 in your browser, this updates latest changes. This is somethiing the browser does and x5 takes care of data on internet, but after that the browser needs a refresh. If the data from the previous visit is too old the browser refreshes automaticly, but if it is fresh it uses the older data to gain speed.
try it, hope this helps.
