How do I change the basic font into 'Corbel'?

Question

I just started using LaTeX, so I have no clue. I have been reading stuff such as \usepackage, as well as things as font families. If anyone could explain me, I'd be very grateful.

Welcome to TeX.sx! Your question sounds as this could perhaps be useful for you: What is the best book to start learning LaTeX? for English and LaTeX Introductions in languages other than English. Regarding your question you should know, that for TrueType and OpenType fonts you need fontspec and Lua(La)TeX or Xe(La)TeX - or ConTeXt, what is another TeX dialect. — Speravir, Dec 16 '12 at 00:56

Use lualatex or xelatex to access TrueType or OpenType fonts through the fontspec package.

\documentclass[11pt]{article}
\usepackage{fontspec}
\setmainfont{Corbel}
\usepackage{lipsum}% just for some dummy text
\begin{document}
\lipsum[1]
\end{document}

In my eyes your example with spaces inside of the definitions was misleading for a newbie, so I made an edit. – Speravir Dec 16 '12 at 01:00

@Jonas: you are welcome, but the best practice when a question is answered is for the person who asked the question (in this case, you) to mark the answer as accepted. This not only provides a form of thanks, it also marks the question as effectively resolved. – GTK Dec 16 '12 at 10:19
