Say I want use the font Comic Sans on my wiki. How would I do that?
Topic on Project:Support desk
Same as any website, set font-family, most likely on the MediaWiki:Common.css
page.
You need to specify your font with the font-family CSS property (see example see SO question), either on specific parts of text with things like <span style="font-family:'Comic Sans';"></span> or applying it in general like body { font-family:'Comic Sans'; }
in one of the stylesheets
Thanks. Would I just upload the font file like any other file if it's a font I've made?
If you want to use it as part of a skin, meaning as default style for something, then it would be best to put it somewhere inside the folder of that skin, meaning inside the skins/<mySkin> folder.
You should use the @font-face structure in your CSS to refer to that font, as explained in @font-face MDN
