Step 4: Once you’re done selecting the Google font category and sorting elements, you will see all the resulting fonts at the bottom of the popup window. Now, you can click on any of the Google fonts from the list and the font on the opened web page will be replaced with the selected font instantly.

Step 5: In the same manner, you can choose different Google fonts for different websites. If you want to get back the original font of any website, then you can simply browse any of the pages of the website and then click on the extension icon. After that, you will see a “Reset Page” button at the top of the popup window. Clicking this button will reset the original font of the website instantly.
