I have a problem. I try to import and use a font(Rubik from google fonts) but i want it to be imported from folder, not google fonts.
Here is my code
CSS
#font-face {
font-family: "Rubik";
src: url("/Rubik-VariableFont_wght.ttf") format("truetype") tech("variations"),
url("/Rubik-VariableFont_wght.ttf") format("truetype-variations");
font-weight: 300 800;
}
html {
font-size: 62.5%;
box-sizing: border-box;
font-family: "Rubik", sans-serif;
color: var(--color-blue-dark);
}
And here is a screenshot of what is showing on browser
I tried to compress font to woff2 to match the google fonts instructions to make it work, but it didn`t
The solution i got was to add second url to a stand alone src like this
#font-face {
font-family: "Rubik";
src: url("/Rubik-VariableFont_wght.ttf") format("truetype") tech("variations"),
src: url("/Rubik-VariableFont_wght.ttf") format("truetype-variations");
font-weight: 300 800;
}

I am trying to load the "Inspiration-Regular.tff" font from theme.js.
The url is correct.
I am then setting the "Inspiration-Regular.tff" as body's font-family in line 137 as shown in the below's code
Upon inspecting the element - it does state that the "font-family" has been updated (as shown below) but the same visual default font appears. Why isn't the font changing?
A snippet of how inspiration-regular should appear.
Your #font-face rule has an error specifying the format:
The correct format value for truetype fonts is format('truetype').
Most modern browsers can also load the font without any format specified.
However, I recommend to add this value for best compatibility.
/* works */
#font-face {
font-family: 'FiraCorrect';
font-style: normal;
font-weight: 400;
src: url(https://fonts.gstatic.com/s/firasans/v16/va9E4kDNxMZdWfMOD5Vvl4jO.ttf) format('truetype');
}
/* won't work */
#font-face {
font-family: 'FiraIncorrect';
font-style: normal;
font-weight: 400;

So I downloaded a font (legally I bought it)
and the font looks really good. but it only displays in the brackets live preview.
when I open it in chrome, it just refuses to work. I followed all the instructions on the font when I bought it. Can anyone help me?
This is an image of the bracket font display which is what I want:
And this is the exact same code when I open the index.html file in Google Chrome.
This is the code I am using to get the font in CSS
#font-face{
font-family:"Ethnocentric W05 Italic";
src:url("/fonts/MTI-WebFonts-367222846/Fonts/5118942/e91f32ff-44ec-47c0-afd3-5cdeeb6c73c8.woff2")
format("woff2");
}
and this is what I used to put it in the header
font-family: "Ethnocentric W05 Italic";
If you declare a custom font using #font-face, the browser will try to fake the bold and italic styles if it can’t find them.
Instead of defining separate font-family values for each font, You can use same font-family name for each font, and define the matching styles, like so:
[css]#font-face {
font-family: 'Ubuntu';
src: url('Ubuntu-R-webfont.eot');
font-weight: normal;
font-style: normal;
}
#font-face {
font-family: 'Ubuntu';
src: url('Ubuntu-I-webfont.eot');
font-weight: normal;
font-style: italic;
}
#font-face {
font-family: 'Ubuntu';
src: url('Ubuntu-B-webfont.eot');
font-weight: bold;
font-style: normal;
}
#font-face {
font-family: 'Ubuntu';
src: url('Ubuntu-BI-webfont.eot');
font-weight: bold;
font-style: italic;
}
.test {
font-family: Ubuntu, arial, sans-serif;
}[/css]
Then all you need to do is apply that single font-family to your target, and any nested bold or italic styles will automatically use the correct font, and still apply bold and italic styles if your custom font fails to load.
I am using Sass for my project and I am getting this error on my home page while importing fonts from my custom fonts folder of Merriweather.The problem is that when i check the network tab on chrome it shows that Agenda font file is included but not the merriweather font file.Both Agenda and Merriweather fonts are in separate folders.
Error :
**http://localhost/project-name/fonts/Merriweather/Merriweather-Italic.tff net::ERR_ABORTED 404 (Not Found)**
My Project folder structure in like this:
project-folder/fonts-folder/Merriweather-folder/All fonts of Merriweather here
project-folder/fonts-folder/Agenda-folder/All fonts of Agenda here
project-folder/scss-folder/partials-folder/global.scss
project-folder/scss-folder/variables.scss
QUESTIONS:
I want to know the is my syntax right for importing multiple fonts
from the same font family like Merriweather ?
what exactly i am doing wrong in variables.scss ??
Please help me to resolve this issue.
Code in Variables.scss
#font-face {
font-family: Agenda;
font-weight: 500;
font-style: normal;
src: url("../fonts/Agenda/Agenda-Medium.otf") format("opentype");
}
#font-face {
font-family: Merriweather-Italic;
font-weight: normal;
font-style: italic;
src: url("../fonts/Merriweather/Merriweather-Italic.tff") format("truetype");
}
#font-face {
font-family: Merriweather-Regular;
font-weight: normal;
font-style: normal;
src: url("../fonts/Merriweather/Merriweather-Regular.tff") format("truetype");
}
This is how i am using fonts in globals.scss
#import "../variables";
body{
font-family: Merriweather-Regular;
font-size: 22px;
background-color: $white;
}
h1{
font-family: Merriweather-Italic;
font-style: italic;
font-size: 94px;
}
h2{
font-family: Merriweather-Regular,Merriweather-Italic;
font-size: 42px;
}
h3{
font-family: Agenda;
font-size: 30px;
}
h4{
font-family: Merriweather-Regular;
font-style: bold;
font-size: 27px;
}
h5{
font-family: Merriweather-Regular;
font-size: 26px;
}
To be sure I would have to see a screenshot of your fonts folder, but I think the font isn't found because of typo in the font-face declaration. True-type font files usually have a .ttf extension instead of .tff.
That means you would have to adjust your #font-face declaration from:
#font-face {
// omitted font-family, weight and style for clarity
src: url("../fonts/Merriweather/Merriweather-Italic.tff") format("truetype");
}
to:
#font-face {
// omitted font-family, weight and style for clarity
src: url("../fonts/Merriweather/Merriweather-Italic.ttf") format("truetype");
}
At this point, so in variables.scss, I usually also declare a font variable for each font (type) for usage in the rest of my SASS files, e.g $merriweather--italic: "Merriweather-Italic", serif;
Therefore you can use these variables in your global.scss as such:
h1{
font-family: $merriweather--italic;
font-size: 94px;
}
I have downloaded .ttf files from google fonts to my local css folder, but can't seem to load them properly. I have tried these approaches:
CSS
#import url('./css/css?family=Cabin+Condensed:400,500,600,700');
#font-face {
font-family: 'Cabin Condensed';
font-style: normal;
font-weight: 700;
src: local('Cabin Condensed') format('truetype');
}
body, html {
font-family: 'Cabin Condensed', sans-serif;
}
HTML
<link href="./css/css?family=Cabin+Condensed:400,500,600" rel="stylesheet">
I don't get any errors, but the font is not displayed either.
Strangely, the official docs don't even mention local fonts.
Seems to me the problem is using the local path which requires the font to be installed locally.
Try dropping the #import and add a fallback of src: url to your src: local:
#font-face {
font-family: 'Cabin Condensed';
src: local('Cabin Condensed'), url(<path to the TTF file>);
}
e.g:
#font-face {
font-family: 'Cabin Condensed';
src: local('Cabin Condensed'), url('/css/fonts/Cabin-Condensed.ttf');
}
I would like to know If we can upload any font on our website ??
Where can I download a font or google font and upload it on my css file directly like that :
#font-face { font-family: 'Myriad Pro Regular';
font-style: normal;
font-weight: 300;
src: local('Myriad Pro Regular'), url('MYRIADPRO-REGULAR.woff') format('woff'); }
instead of use this sort of code :
#import url(http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Source+Sans Pro:200italic,200,300italic,300,400italic,400,600italic,600,700italic,700,900italic,900);
thank you
See don’t use #import.
Prefere LINK tag :
<link rel='stylesheet' href='a.css'>
Download Source Sans Pro webfont and make CSS file with these rules :
#font-face {
font-family: SourceSansPro;
src: url('source-sans-pro/SourceSansPro-Regular.otf');
}
#font-face {
font-family: SourceSansPro;
src: url('source-sans-pro/SourceSansPro-Bold.otf');
font-weight: bold;
}
#font-face {
font-family: SourceSansPro;
src: url('source-sans-pro/SourceSansPro-Italic.otf');
font-style: italic;
}
#font-face {
font-family: SourceSansPro;
src: url('source-sans-pro/SourceSansPro-BoldItalic.otf');
font-weight: bold;
font-style: italic;
}
#font-face {
font-family: SourceSansPro;
src: url('source-sans-pro/SourceSansPro-Light.otf');
font-weight: 300;
}
#font-face {
font-family: SourceSansPro;
src: url('source-sans-pro/SourceSansPro-LightItalic.otf');
font-style: italic;
font-weight: 300;
}
Using a Custom Web Font
I found this youtube video online. It gives the instructions step by step.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KPwG67lEFdc
I listed the steps here go to http://www.google.com/fonts/
find a font that you like, click the quick use link. Scroll down again and copy the link that looks like the following.
http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Open+Sans' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'>
Next integrate the fonts into your CSS. The Google Fonts API will generate the necessary browser-specific CSS to use the fonts. All you need to do is add the font name to your CSS styles. For example:
font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif;
True, like #Jukka said, some fonts aren't free, so you'll have to search. Luck is that:
Raleway - http://www.fontsquirrel.com/fonts/raleway
and Open Sans - http://www.fontsquirrel.com/fonts/open-sans
are free, so you just have to download the TTF (big blue button), inside the zip there's the whole set of weights and styles of the font.
Then you have two options:
Upload the .ttf directly to your ftp and call it into your css, as you stated; or
Use the Webfont Generator (http://www.fontsquirrel.com/tools/webfont-generator) to create another types (.woof, .eot, .svg), because of browsers.
FYI, Chrome in the last few versions (< 39) had a problem with some fonts, and just the .svg extension corrected the bug.
