title: No Page Custom Font

> Prevent page-only custom fonts.
## Why This Error Occurred
- The custom font you're adding was added to a page - this only adds the font to the specific page and not the entire application.
- The custom font you're adding was added to a separate component within `pages/_document.js` - this disables automatic font optimization.
## Possible Ways to Fix It
Create the file `./pages/_document.js` and add the font to a custom Document:
```jsx filename="pages/_document.js"
import Document, { Html, Head, Main, NextScript } from 'next/document'
class MyDocument extends Document {
render() {
return (
)
}
}
export default MyDocument
```
Or as a function component:
```jsx filename="pages/_document.js"
import { Html, Head, Main, NextScript } from 'next/document'
export default function Document() {
return (
)
}
```
### When Not To Use It
If you have a reason to only load a font for a particular page or don't care about font optimization, then you can disable this rule.
