/*
  Adobe Fonts setup for IvyPresto Text Regular
  ---------------------------------------------
  The masthead keeps the original stacked uppercase format:

      THE
      HARDER
      PATH

  To activate IvyPresto Text Regular from Adobe Fonts:
  1) In Adobe Fonts, create a Web Project containing IvyPresto Text Regular.
  2) Copy the CSS embed link from Adobe, e.g.
     <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://use.typekit.net/xxxxxxx.css">
  3) Paste that link into index.html where marked: ADOBE FONTS EMBED FOR IVYPRESTO TEXT REGULAR.
  4) Confirm the Adobe CSS family name. This file assumes the family name is "ivypresto-text".
     If Adobe shows a different CSS family name, replace "ivypresto-text" in --wordmark below.

  Do not upload Adobe Fonts font files to this package. Adobe Fonts webfont licensing uses
  Adobe's embed code/CDN, not self-hosted font files.
