No. You can find more details on the following page:

I don't think that is possible

Can you have different fonts for headings and body text?

As Mike and Harshit have mentioned, it is possible to add custom fonts to Appian.

You'd do this via the admin console.

The admin console will ask you for URLs to provide to the fonts, from where you have a couple of options.

Option 1 - Host within Appian

For this option, you'd download the font from the site you're sourcing it from (such as fonts.google.com), then upload the font file as an Appian document and point to that. This is possible, but may be trickier than option 3.

Option 2 - Host it yourself, elsewhere

As option 1, but you'd instead host the font on a file repository of your choice, and point Appian towards that on the admin console.

Option 3 - Use a pre-existing online link

This option changes per site, and for something like fonts.google.com, it'll change when they do a UX update. At the current time of writing, you'd:

Select the weights you need (corresponding to what Appian asks for) on the Specimen tab
Click the shopping bag icon
Copy the link to the generated style spreadsheet
Follow the link, and within it will be the source URLs you need to paste into Appian

Also, the amount of information they give, for how to actually accomplish this configuration, is frustratingly low.

They talk about providing URLs to the font "files" iirc, but provide essentially no guidance as to where one would actually go about finding valid URLs for such use. I infer they might intend for us to find the font files and put them somewhere on our company webservers (as if we have any control over that in any case). But none of this is spelled out or even hinted at in the documentation.

You can apply custom fonts in Appian under admin console but it will be applied to all the sites in the environment.

Hi,
I think there is no such kind of option available in Appian.
