Google fonts?

I added some Google fonts via the "Google Fonts Statement" in a Pangolin theme and they work fine except when I use the theme to create a Wordpress template. When I use the WP template the text using the Google font doesn't show up.

Do I need to do something extra in Wordpress to make this work?

Re: Google fonts?

The text should show up regardless. If the Google font wasn't being applied then the default font would be used.
Is the text showing up in the page's source code?

Re: Google fonts?

I'm actually looking at a theme preview and I can't find any of the Top Pallet text in the source, which is where I'm trying to use the font.

Re: Google fonts?

It turns out it doesn't matter what font I use, the title doesn't show up in the Top Pallet using the Wordpress theme generated with Pangolin.

Re: Google fonts?

Charlie, have you got a link, or are you working locally? I'd like to have a look at what's going on, if it's someplace I can visit.

Re: Google fonts?

I can set something up when I get a chance. So far I've only looked at it it the WP theme live preview so I haven't got anything that can be linked to directly.

Re: Google fonts?

I decided to go with a graphic logo and I assume I just missed something when I was playing around with fonts before. Sorry about my confusion.
