Easy Google Fonts
Google has a huge collection of fonts and Easy Google Fonts allows you to use them with any theme. You don’t have to code anything to use the fonts. The plugin integrates with your customizer so you can see a real-time preview of each option. You’ll be able to change the color of each header to set them apart. Find a font family you like and play around with different versions of it.

If the above plugin isn’t for you, try WP Google Fonts. Choose from hundreds of fonts with this free plugin. With this plugin, you have the option to add your own custom CSS too. You can assign a different font to each element on your website. You’ll able to completely customize every word you write if you want.
It’s a great way to spice up your site without having to have a lot of experience developing or knowledge of code.

Unlike the above options, with Use Any Font you can use any font that is in the correct format. Literally, any font you find on the web, you can grab it and add it to your site.
The plugin integrates with the editor so you can highlight any section you want and change the font right there. You don’t have to choose a master one for your theme but can pick as you write.
