[[Wikipedia:Font family (HTML)|Font families]] should not be explicitly defined in an article, with the exception of PUA characters (next section), because this interferes with the UniWiki's flexibility, and it is impossible to foresee what fonts will be installed on a user's computer.

Articles used to explicitly define font families for special characters, because older browsers could not automatically select an appropriate font. This is no longer dealt with by using explicit font definitions in the articles. Certain definitions can be invoked by using special templates {{crossref|(see [[Help:Special characters]], {{tl|Unicode}}, and {{tl|IPA}})}}.
