    Open a page in DW and select some text on the page. In your Property Inspector window, click the drop down menu of the Font. You will see an option at the bottom of the list called "Edit Font List". You should be able to add your font in there and it will then show up in DW.

    Not sure though if Agency FB is a web friendly font. You may want to check that out before deciding to add it to your site.

    Awesome information Vito! I've been using DW for nearly 3 years and I hadn't a clue; cool info - kudos.

    BTW Drew - what fonts are you adding?

    Bear in mind that if no-one has that font it will display the default font. That's why there's only a few fonts to choose from. have a look at this page for more info on installed fonts:

    http://www.webspaceworks.com/resources/fonts-web-typography/48/

    ps you should also list "fallback" fonts incase some one doesn't have your first one installed. Then the next one in the list will be displayed:

    font-family: "Trebuchet MS", Tahoma, Verdana, Arial;
