Leslie,

Yes and no. It's possible to use the theme to change the font for recognized block types, such as an example block or a code block. (See https://github.com/asciidoctor/asciidoctor-pdf/blob/master/docs/theming-guide.adoc). It's not currently possible to change the font for a specific instance of a block. That would be similar to https://github.com/asciidoctor/asciidoctor-pdf/issues/483. We're not that far away from being able to do that now, though some architecture is needed to sort out exactly how it will be done.

Best,

-Dan

Hello, I'm happy with the default PDF theme however I'd like to be able to use an additional font beside the default one, the Charis SIL font, so I can represent the pronunciation of certain words using the International Phonetic Alphabet.

Is it possible to denote specific areas in a documentation, something like this:

[Pronunciation]
----
Some text here
----

Which uses the custom font? Then the rest of the document to be in the default font.

Thank you,
Leslie
