Hey there,

I read through the forum, but all solutions did not work for me.

I simply want to use another google-font in my main menu, additionally to the "Heading Font" in the theme options.
So 2 different google-fonts. One set in heading fonts (Antic), one set for my main menu (Amatic SC).

So I installed both in the register-admin-options.php, set up "Antic" in my theme option and added following in my quick CSS:
```
@import url(http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Amatic+SC);

.main_menu ul {
font-family: font-family: 'Amatic SC' !important;
}
```
But the menu font is not changing at all. Am I missing something?
The website is http://www.backtothegrindstone.de

Thank you for your help and kind Regards,
Phil

Little update, I put in
```
@import url(http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Amatic+SC);

.main_menu ul {
font-family: 'Amatic SC' !important;
}
```
But that did not work too. :(
By the way, any other standard font like "verdana" or "arial" works, but none of the google fonts.

Okay I fixed it by putting the line
```
@import url(http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Amatic+SC);
```
into the style.css file. Although it is not recommended to edit this file, nothing else worked.
It seemed the @import function was not overwritten or accepted by the custom.css nor the quick css.

Withdrawal - safari screws it up, did only work for firefox.
Now I am back to zero...

I use this plugin for google web fonts:
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-google-fonts/

You can add custom css within the plugin to identify the element you want to change
