 # Adding a new font to the Genome Browser display
 
 The fonts offered in the hgTracks "configure" page Font menu are defined in a
 table in the source code: the `freeTypeFonts[]` array in
 `src/hg/hgTracks/config.c`
 ([view on GitHub](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ucscGenomeBrowser/kent/refs/heads/master/src/hg/hgTracks/config.c)).
 Adding a font is therefore a source code change, and you will need to rebuild the
 CGIs afterward (see the [Building the kent source tree](#building-the-kent-source-tree)
-section below). There are two steps.
+section below).

+Once you have a font file in hand, adding it takes just two steps:
 
 1.  Put the font file where the rendering engine can find it. At run time the
     file is looked up under the directory given by the `freeTypeDir` setting in
     hg.conf, which defaults to `../htdocs/urw-fonts`. That path is relative to the
     CGI working directory, so it resolves to the shared `htdocs/urw-fonts`
     directory even when you run from a per-user sandbox; you do not need a copy
     under your own htdocs. Both Type1 (`.pfb`) and TrueType (`.ttf`) font files
     are supported.
 
 2.  Add a row to the `freeTypeFonts[]` table in `src/hg/hgTracks/config.c`,
     giving the name to display and the font file name, for example:
 
         {"Lexend",      "Lexend-Regular.ttf"},
         {"Lexend-Bold", "Lexend-Bold.ttf"},
