+The default font is EB Garamond. 
+There are two primary methods for changing the font used. 
+First you can use fonts provided through  various [LaTeX font packages](https://tug.org/FontCatalogue/about.html) using the `fontfamily:` yaml key.

+
+```yaml
+fontfamily: electrum
+fontfamilyoptions: lf
+```
+The second option is to point the `mainfont:` yaml key to a locally installed font.
+
+```yaml
+mainfont: Ubuntu
+```
+
+Note that `fontfamily:` will override `mainfont:` so specify just one.
