In /src/site/globals/site.variables, I can see how you can define google fonts, which get imported from when you compile. What I am interested in is defining my own custom fonts where I will supply my own font files.
I can’t find docs on how to do it. While I know how to do it in CSS, I am wondering if it is already built-in in this framework but I have simply missed it.
Thanks!
I don't believe there is a built-in way to do it. Here's how I did it.
I used the standard #font-face css rule. I then placed it in the site.overrides file. I am using a less variable (#font-path) to simplify my file paths.
#font-path: '../../fonts';
#font-face {
font-family: 'my-font';
src: url('#{font-path}/my-font.woff') format('woff'),
url('#{proxima-prefix}my-font.woff2') format('woff2');
font-weight: normal;
font-style: normal;
}
You'll have to make sure that the font files are served up appropriately by your server.
The above can be turned into a less mixin based on your usage as well.

Using canvas to generate text for some Trading Cards (Its a community project)
And I needed the Andy Font. However there are no stable web serving locations.
So I went with github. I placed all my font formats inside this repository folder:
https://github.com/FunctFlow/TerrariaTradingCards/tree/master/andy%20font%20family
Then I used this font-font inside of my project:
#font-face {
font-family: "Andy";
src: url("https://github.com/FunctFlow/TerrariaTradingCards/raw/master/andy%20font%20family/Andy-Bold.eot");
src: url("https://github.com/FunctFlow/TerrariaTradingCards/raw/master/andy%20font%20family/Andy-Bold.eot?#iefix")
format("embedded-opentype"),
url("https://github.com/FunctFlow/TerrariaTradingCards/raw/master/andy%20font%20family/Andy-Bold.woff2")
format("woff2"),
url("https://github.com/FunctFlow/TerrariaTradingCards/raw/master/andy%20font%20family/Andy-Bold.woff")
format("woff"),
url("https://github.com/FunctFlow/TerrariaTradingCards/raw/master/andy%20font%20family/Andy-Bold.ttf")
format("truetype");
font-weight: bold;
font-style: normal;
}
However, my project does NOT render the andy font, as you can see in this codepen: https://codepen.io/SkylerSpark/pen/bGVBpmj
I love how solutions always appear minutes after Ive given up and come here.
Basically, Github serves the wrong filetype headers, and the website cant recognize the font-formats.
So you cannot use Github for font formats, similarly to how you cant use it to host Javascript or CSS or whatever else you need to reference through http.
The best solution I can think of is to use a tool like jsDelivr to reference the fonts. As seen here: JsDelivr Github
And using a link like this:
https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/FunctFlow/TerrariaTradingCards#master/andy%20font%20family/Andy-Bold.ttf
My fonts now render successfully
I am trying to embed a font file to my tumblr blog using #font-face and Font Squirrel kit, but so far I had no luck. I also used base64 encoding for embedding the font, but neither in Safari nor Firefox I cannot get it to work.
Edit: Uploading files and using them to tumblr's static area works in Safari and for Latin script. The font I am trying to use includes characters from Old Turkic script, and I cannot get these to work. Any advice regarding the complex scripts would be appreciated.
My code is below:

How to proceed from now on?
Don't try to store and serve the font files on tumblr itself. This is likely not permitted by Tumblr TOS.
Put the font files somewhere else and it will work.
What you have done so far is, you defined the font-family. That will not make the browser use it.
Add this to your current custom css.
section.post {
font-family: "orkunregular";
}
You need to apply that Font to the HTML-Elements you want to use it on.
section.post would be only your own blogposts.
if you want everything to use that font, try:
* {
font-family: "orkunregular" !important;
}
Please check the TOS of Tumblr if they allow that kind of customization, or atleast host those Fonts on a seperate webserver.
Okay, I've solved it. When generating the font kit, I chose the Unicode range of the Old Turkic script, then when used the new kit, it displayed without any problems.
Here's the blog page, http://bitigchi.tumblr.com/indiriler1
Thanks for all the answers.
I want to download Google web-fonts in all formats and create a combined CSS to use them anywhere without loading them from Google servers.
I already have a php script that downloads the font files. Need only the CSS now.
As you may know the Google web-font API serves a special CSS depending on the browsers user agent.
I have a few questions about it.
Is it true that Google web-fonts get only serve one font as svg for only OS devices, I noticed this while testing a few fonts (with faked user agent). While for others there are multiple #font-face declarations but with font-weight and font-style different. Am I right to assume Google serves the SVG only for the "regular" version of the fonts not "italic, bold, book ..."
Whats the best way to combine them into one CSS, especially in regards to this combined SVG font.
You are right that Google only serves up the font for your specific user-agent. Getting them all is tricky.
You mentioned you have a PHP script for fetching the different font formats, so you may not need these two options, but I'll list them anyway:
Option 1
This article walks through the process of how to download all the different formats:
http://ijotted.blogspot.com/2012/05/download-eot-ttf-woff-formats-of-font.html
In short, you'll need to use user-agent spoofing to grab all the different formats.
Option 2
Another option would be just to grab the TTF version (since that's easy) and then head over to http://www.fontsquirrel.com/tools/webfont-generator to have them convert/generate all the other versions.
If you end up using this option, it may be useful to know that Joe Maller has put together a full download package to grab all of the TTF font files at once (though it might be a bit out of date).
Serving up with CSS
Once you have all the different versions, use a syntax like this for your CSS. This is from FontSpring's Bulletproof Font-Face Syntax.
#font-face {
font-family: 'MyFontFamily';
src: url('myfont-webfont.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'),
url('myfont-webfont.woff') format('woff'),
url('myfont-webfont.ttf') format('truetype'),
url('myfont-webfont.svg#svgFontName') format('svg');
}
That last line of course depends on whether you have an SVG font file. Which brings us to...
SVG
That first link claims:
While it's true that Google serves the SVG font format on iOS devices running version 4.2 or below, I can confirm that the SVGs are empty or broken. It's therefore true that Google no longer supports devices running iOS versions 4.2 and below. Implies, no SVG font format anymore.
I haven't been able to verify this anywhere else, however I have seen a whole lot of users complaining about SVG issues, fonts not loading... I would be inclined to ignore SVG as an option, and focus on serving up EOT/WOFF/TTF. That seems to be the most solid way of covering your bases.
Update: it appears that fontsquirrel.com can generate an SVG version. So even though Google doesn't provide SVG as a download option, you can still generate it if you really want to.
You can use base64 encoding, but it is about 30% larger than normal files (and I don't know if this url will be parsed every time you write something, so please, check it before you use it).
Or you can download it once and save it in local-browser memory and use it without downloading new version (but you still need to download these files at least one time).
With IE i can't help you. But when you're creating new #font-face rule, you can specify font-weight.
/** #1 **/
#font-face {
font-family: 'Open Sans';
font-style: normal;
font-weight: 600;
src: local('Open Sans Extrabold'),
local('OpenSans-Extrabold'),
url(http://themes.googleusercontent.com/static/fonts/opensans/v6/EInbV5DfGHOiMmvb1Xr-hnhCUOGz7vYGh680lGh-uXM.woff)
format('woff');
}
/** #2 **/
#font-face {
font-family: 'Open Sans';
font-style: italic;
font-weight: 300;
src: local('Open Sans Light Italic'),
local('OpenSansLight-Italic'),
url(http://themes.googleusercontent.com/static/fonts/opensans/v6/PRmiXeptR36kaC0GEAetxh_xHqYgAV9Bl_ZQbYUxnQU.woff)
format('woff');
}
.a {
font-family: 'Open Sans';
font-weight: 300; /** #2 used for <= 500 cos font-weights are 300 and 600 **/
}
.b {
font-family: 'Open Sans';
font-weight: 800; /** #1 used for >= 600 **/
}
Hope it'll help u.
I've seen some new websites that are using custom fonts on their sites (other than the regular Arial, Tahoma, etc.).
And they support a nice amount of browsers.
How does one do that? While also preventing people from having free access to download the font, if possible.
Generically, you can use a custom font using #font-face in your CSS. Here's a very basic example:
#font-face {
font-family: 'YourFontName'; /*a name to be used later*/
src: url('http://domain.example/fonts/font.ttf'); /*URL to font*/
}
Then, trivially, to use the font on a specific element:
.classname {
font-family: 'YourFontName';
}
(.classname is your selector).
Note that certain font-formats don't work on all browsers; you can use fontsquirrel.com's generator to avoid too much effort converting.
You can find a nice set of free web-fonts provided by Google Fonts (also has auto-generated CSS #font-face rules, so you don't have to write your own).
while also preventing people from having free access to download the font, if possible
Nope, it isn't possible to style your text with a custom font embedded via CSS, while preventing people from downloading it. You need to use images, Flash, or the HTML5 Canvas, all of which aren't very practical.
To make sure that your font is cross-browser compatible, make sure that you use this syntax:
#font-face {
font-family: 'Comfortaa Regular';
src: url('Comfortaa.eot');
src: local('Comfortaa Regular'),
local('Comfortaa'),
url('Comfortaa.ttf') format('truetype'),
url('Comfortaa.svg#font') format('svg');
}
Taken from here.
You have to download the font file and load it in your CSS.
F.e. I'm using the Yanone Kaffeesatz font in my Web Application.
I load and use it via
#font-face {
font-family: "Yanone Kaffeesatz";
src: url("../fonts/YanoneKaffeesatz-Regular.ttf");
}
in my stylesheet.
Today there are four font container formats in use on the web: EOT, TTF, WOFF,andWOFF2.
Unfortunately, despite the wide range of choices, there isn't a single universal format that works across all old and new browsers:
EOT is IE only,
TTF has partial IE support,
WOFF enjoys the widest support but is not available in some older browsers
WOFF 2.0 support is a work in progress for many browsers.
If you want your web app to have the same font across all browsers then you might want to provide all 4 font type in CSS
#font-face {
font-family: 'besom'; !important
src: url('fonts/besom/besom.eot');
src: url('fonts/besom/besom.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'),
url('fonts/besom/besom.woff2') format('woff2'),
url('fonts/besom/besom.woff') format('woff'),
url('fonts/besom/besom.ttf') format('truetype'),
url('fonts/besom/besom.svg#besom_2regular') format('svg');
font-weight: normal;
font-style: normal;
}
If you dont find any fonts that you like from Google.com/webfonts or fontsquirrel.com you can always make your own web font with a font you made.
here's a nice tutorial: Make your own font face web font kit
Although im not sure about preventing someone from downloading your font.
Hope this helps,
there's also an interesting tool called CUFON. There's a demonstration of how to use it in this blog
It's really simple and interesting. Also, it doesn't allow people to ctrl+c/ctrl+v the generated content.
I am working on Win 8, use this code. It works for IE and FF, Opera, etc.
What I understood are : woff font is light et common on Google fonts.
Go here to convert your ttf font to woff before.
#font-face
{
font-family:'Open Sans';
src:url('OpenSans-Regular.woff');
}
First of all, you can't prevent people from downloading fonts except if it is yours and that usually takes months.
And it makes no sense to prevent people from using fonts.
A lot of fonts that you see on websites can be found on free platforms like the one I mentioned below.
But if you want to implement a font into your website read this:
There is a pretty simple and free way to implement fonts into your website.
I would recommend Google fonts because it is free and easy to use.
For example, I'll use the Bangers font from Google.(https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Bangers?query=bangers&sidebar.open&selection.family=Bangers)
This is how it would look like:
HTML
<head>
<link href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=Bangers&display=swap" rel="stylesheet">
</head>
CSS
body {
font-family: 'Bangers', cursive;
}
I see lots of sites that display great fonts that are not images. For example: The Firebug site and Happy Cog. There seem to be lots of CSS 'tricks', bits of JavaScript and whatever other trickery employed by various web designers to get the job done (I'm not suggesting either of the aforementioned sites do this).
My question is, what is acceptable in terms of CSS / font practices? Is it still that case that only a core set of common fonts should be used? If not, what are the acceptable / reliable practices to display nice looking fonts, particularly for Mac / Windows consistency?
You can embed fonts now. Here's a good place to start: http://www.google.com/webfonts
If you have a font you would like to use, you can use a generator and it will make files that you simply need to include with your website
http://www.fontsquirrel.com/fontface/generator
Simply include something like this in your style sheet:
#font-face {
font-family: 'ArchitectsDaughterRegular';
src: url('fonts/ArchitectsDaughter-webfont.eot');
src: url('fonts/ArchitectsDaughter-webfont.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'),
url('fonts/ArchitectsDaughter-webfont.woff') format('woff'),
url('fonts/ArchitectsDaughter-webfont.ttf') format('truetype'),
url('fonts/ArchitectsDaughter-webfont.svg#ArchitectsDaughterRegular') format('svg');
font-weight: normal;
font-style: normal;
}
Just make the url point to where you actually have that font. There are also a lot of premade fonts available.
