So, I'm brand new to web development, and I am trying to learn all about CSS right now. I noticed not many font-family's come with VSCode so I wanted to download some to get in VSCode to use in my CSS. Question is; how do I do that? I downloaded the .ttf file of the font I want to use in my CSS but I'm unsure how to get VSCode to recognize the font-family.
You can use https://fonts.google.com/ to find the font you want, than select it and it should give u a link, paste it on top of your css file
ex :
link: <link href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=Antonio:wght#100&display=swap" rel="stylesheet">
using it: font-family: 'Antonio', sans-serif;
First of all the fonts you use have nothing to do with VS Code. What you want to do is integrate your downloaded font directly in your CSS code which can be done like so:
#font-face {
font-family: myFirstFont;
src: url(your_font.tff);
}
body {
font-family: myFirstFont;
}
You have to specify the #font-face CSS at-rule:
#font-face {
font-family: myfont;
src: url("myfont.ttf");
}
and then you can use it like so:
* {
font-family: myfont
}

I want to use a specific font on a website. I don't want to use any type of plugin, and the font I want, I don't find it free to add through a link, so I have decided with the #font-face method
1 - I add the following code to the styles.css file:
#font-face {
font-family: university-roman;
src: url(https://myWebsite.com/wp-content/themes/my-Theme/fonts/university-roman.otf);
font-weight: normal;
}
2 - I have created the fonts folder in the following path of my directories:
wp-content/themes/my-Theme/fonts/university-roman.otf
3 - I have added the css corresponding to the text where I want to add the new fonts:
.site-title-main {
font-family: "university-roman", Arial, sans-serif;
}
But the text does not display the University fonts.
What am I doing wrong ?
How can I make the new fonts work?
I hope I have described the problem that I cannot solve.
Thank you
In your #font-face css declaration. An e is missing in your path /my-Them/ should be /my-Theme/ isn't it?
I'm designing a personal blog using ruby on rails (ruby version 2.6.6)
I've tried using this guide to change the font of the heading in the homepage of my web site. I've added the font I want in app\assets\fonts and I've added the following code:
#font-face {
font-family: "orangejuice";
src: url('/assets/fonts/orangejuice.ttf')
}
I've added the aforementioned code into the file 'app\assets\stylesheets\welcome.scss`
and I've also added in the file \node_modules\serve-index\public\style.css the lines:
h1 {
font-size: 60px;
font-family: "orangejuice";
}
Unfortunately, nothing happened, and I don't have any other .css files which I can edit.
What could be the problem? Why don't I see a change in my app? the file application.css is empty, there's no other code in it.
In general, I'm having trouble with understanding how to change the design of my site using rails, I've looked at many guides, but I can't find anything which explains all the options I have for designing my site. Perhaps anyone have an advise about what should I read?
Thank you
By adding this snippet:
#font-face {
font-family: "orangejuice";
src: url('/assets/fonts/orangejuice.ttf')
}
To your welcome.scss file, it will only by accessible in that file.
So what you can do is remove the code above and put it in your application.css:
#font-face {
font-family: "orangejuice";
src: url(asset-path("orangejuice.ttf"));
}
h1 {
font-size: 60px;
font-family: "orangejuice";
}
In this way it will be globally applied.
i have this template to edit and i want to change the font
here's what i have
#import url(font-awesome.min.css);
#import url(https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Raleway:400,700);
i want to use this font: https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Playfair+Display?selection.family=Playfair+Display
then i have like five places in the css code where the it shows
font-family: FontAwesome;
what i did was i downloaded the PlayfairDisplay and pasted in the "font" folder, then i changed all the "font-family:" to the name of the new font, but that did not change anything.. am i missing something?
If you want to use font files instead of the google import, you will have to use #font-face in css and point it to the font file. For example:
#font-face {
font-family: your font name;
src: url(sansation_light.woff);//add your font file here
}
div {
font-family: myFirstFont;
}
you can refer to the following example from w3 schools for more examples: https://www.w3schools.com/cssref/css3_pr_font-face_rule.asp
Hellow i have a problem with importing fonts from folder.
I`m using gulp and browsersync on index.php throught proxy to my VH.
When I want to set up a background I have to use this url
background-image: url('http://ekozone.local/src/img/logo.png');
Now when I try to make new font family by doing
#font-face {
font-family: "BarlowBlack";
src: url('http://ekozone.local/src/Barlow-Black.ttf') format('ttf'),
}
Nothing happens, I was trying many ways to get to my fonts
src: url('../../../src/Barlow-Black.ttf') format('ttf')
/\ this one was before i moved it to same level as index
src: url('Barlow-Black.ttf') format('ttf')
This is how my structure looks like

If someone can help me it would be great... And I was reading questions about this but nothing works for me... probably im doing something wrong.
Thanks for help!
If you have div or another HTML element with class divClass, in CSS you have to specify whichone font family you need to use:
#font-face {
font-family: "BarlowBlack";
src: url('http://ekozone.local/src/Barlow-Black.ttf'),
}
.divClass {
font-family: "BarlowBlack";
background-image: url('http://ekozone.local/src/img/logo.png');
}
This should work for you.
Or if you would like to use your font, use instead of http link:
src: url('../Barlow-Black.ttf');
Ok I have my site up so far but the two fonts I used are not showing up. I transferred the fonts and put them in the same folder as my webpages. I also used #font-face in css (styless.css). I'm not sure where I went wrong.
Website: http://envycosmetics.zxq.net/TestSite/webpages/index.html
I'm looking at styless.css, and I can't see where you used #font-face. Make sure you do it like this:
#font-face { font-family: FontName; src: url('path/to/font.otf'); }
Then call it like this:
#navBar { font-family: FontName, sans-serif; }
Also, don't forget to call another font for browsers that don't support #font-face, as shown in #navBar values.
I also used #font-face in css (styless.css)
No... no, you didn't.
