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');

I have some local fonts I want to use in my project. I've read a few tutorials and questions on this, and I'm following the reccomendations I've seen, but my fonts are not showing up properly in the browser. I am using webpack 5. In my webpack config:
module.exports = {
// ...
module: {
rules: [
// ...
{
test: /\.(woff|woff2|ttf)$/,
use: {
loader: "url-loader",
},
},
]
}
}
I have a bunch of .tff font files in my src/assets/fonts/ directory. I have a .scss file for global styles. In there, I define the font names and I want to use, and where webpack should find them:
#font-face {
font-family: "InterRegular";
src: url("../assets/fonts/Inter-Regular.ttf") format("truetype");
font-display: swap;
}
#font-face {
font-family: "InterMedium";
src: url("../assets/fonts/Inter-Medium.ttf") format("truetype");
font-display: swap;
}
#font-face {
font-family: "InterSemiBold";
src: url("../assets/fonts/Inter-SemiBold.ttf") format("truetype");
font-display: swap;
}
// etc
I'm fairly sure webpack is finding these, because if I get the path to the file wrong, webpack errors. I then try to apply the font:
html,
body {
font-family: "InterSemiBold", sans-serif;
}
There are no errors, but the font does not get applied to the page. When I look in my network tab, I can see that a font file is indeed being loaded:
But this is clearly not the InterSemiBold font. Regardless of what font I'm using, this strangely-named .tff file always shows this same, seriffed font.
Looking at the computed value of an element, I can see that the browser is reading the "InterSemiBold", sans-serif value of the font family, but still defaulting to Arial:
I have also tried loading in fonts using the file-loader with webpack, but that makes no difference, and many recommend using url-loader instead.
What am I doing wrong here? Why is my font not being loaded in and applied?
Your dev tools screenshot indicates your actual page/app style sheet expects the font-family name to be 'Inter'.
So you don't need different family names for each font-weight
and change your #font-face rules to something like this:
#font-face {
font-family: 'Inter';
font-style: normal;
font-weight: 400;
src: url('../assets/fonts/Inter-Regular.ttf') format('truetype')
}
#font-face {
font-family: 'Inter';
font-style: normal;
font-weight: 500;
src: url('../assets/fonts/Inter-Medium.ttf') format('truetype')
}
#font-face {
font-family: 'Inter';
font-style: normal;
font-weight: 600;
src: url('../assets/fonts/Inter-SemiBold.ttf') format('truetype')
}
#font-face {
font-family: 'Inter';
font-style: normal;
font-weight: 700;
src: url('../assets/fonts/Inter-Bold.ttf') format('truetype')
}
Your #font-face rules should include a font-style value.
For italic styles you would change it to font-style: normal.
The font-url must use the exact file name of a font style (just a note, as some automatic font loaders rename the filenames internally or load updated files directly from Google - resulting in filenames like this "inter-v11-latin-800.ttf").
Since a browser can't automatically tell which intermediate weight would be e.g 'semi-bold' or 'light', you add specific numeric font-weight values which can be used to map all font-weights to different selectors like this:
body{
font-family:Inter;
font-size:16px;
}
.medium{
font-weight:500;
}
.semibold{
font-weight:600;
}
strong, h1, h2,
.button{
font-weight:700;
}
You might also double check your main css – it might also contain a separate #font-face declaration.
If everything is working fine, you should see the .tff files in dev tools just as defined in #font-face urls (e.g. "Inter-Regular.ttf")
Still not working?
Try to open the font via absolute URL in your browser.
Font file connection test example
Provided your compiled folder structure looks something like this:
the final URL is "myapp.com"
the main css is located under URL "myapp.com/css/main.css"
font files are located (at least according to your css/compiling code) in directory URL "myapp.com/assets/fonts/"
the actual font files should be available (downloadable) under URL
"myapp.com/assets/fonts/Inter-Regular.ttf"
If this doesn't work – you need to fix the URLs in your #font-face rule.
This especially important, if assets are copied/assembled during a compiling process to a new directory – so previously paths/URLs might not be "automagically" fixed.
Another cause might be inlined css – so the css becomes part of the compiled HTML <head> or <body> – relative paths/URLs might not work anymore => absolute paths could fix this (... albeit, any decent auto inlining script should be smart enough to translate relative to absolute URLs).
Compiled css
The final css might also include some overriding rules.
So check the finally compiled css in devtools and search for any #font-face rules – as a last resort: add a !important keyword to a font src to enforce the desired URL.
Font files might be corrupt?
Since the "inter" is available as free google webfont you could get a "fresh" copy via google webfonts helper
I was having the same problem as you with Webpack 5 and a custom local font, none of the above suggestions worked, but I just solved it, here's how: When I went to Google Fonts the only option was to download a TTF and that's what I had been trying to use. So, I visited the google-webfonts-helper website which gives you the code to put in your CSS file to make sure I was doing it correctly, and it instead had me download a WOFF and WOFF2 of the font. When I used these files the fonts rendered properly in my Chrome browser right away. I then found a few other forums from the past where people had issues with Chrome rendering TTF's and solved them by switching to WOFF formats. I don't know exactly why this works but it did.
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
}
Folks! I am not an expert in CSS, I am currently trying to understand a codebase that has css file with following syntax
#font-face {
font-family: "Avenir LT";
url(/Fonts/8afe744b-89a2-4ae2-a88e-05c6882580f3.svg#8afe744b-89a2-4ae2-a88e-05c6882580f3) format("svg")
}
I do not know if the url pattern is correct. Specifically, the part after svg.
Can some one help me understand this?
Thanks
Not exactly.
See docs for the details, for example - https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/#font-face
It seems you missed src property, so your styles should look like
font-face {
font-family: "Avenir LT";
src: url(/Fonts/8afe744b-89a2-4ae2-a88e-05c6882580f3.svg#8afe744b-89a2-4ae2-a88e-05c6882580f3) format("svg");
}
In my site I've tried these two methods (One for each time), to import a font:
#import "/va/fonts/FjallaOne-Regular.ttf";
#import url('/va/fonts/FjallaOne-Regular.ttf');
None of them is working. The path is correct.
I don't want to use a HTTP request for this task.
PS: Tried without the quotes too: #import url(/va/fonts/FjallaOne-Regular.ttf);
It doesn't work because you are using an import, not the #font-face, try the following:
#font-face {
font-family: 'FjallaOne-Regular'; /*You can use whatever name that you want*/
src: url('/va/fonts/FjallaOne-Regular.ttf');
}
Finally, select the font-family on your sections, for example:
#styledDiv {
font-family: 'FjallaOne-Regular';
}
Good luck, bro.
I think you might be missing a back-slash in there, I believe the correct syntax is #import url(//address);, I'm not sure though if it would work with a local file.
I personally would define a font-face in my CSS and use that as a regular font-family property. Always worked for me that way whether for local files or fonts online.
Example:
#font-face {
font-family: 'MyWebFont';
src: url('/va/fonts/FjallaOne-Regular.ttf') format('truetype');
}
body {
font-family: 'MyWebFont', Fallback, sans-serif;
}
For the record, I learned the code above some time ago from CSStricks.com
I hope that answers your question.
Happy coding :)
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.
