I have a problem importing a font to my CSS file, and I can't understand the problem.
The code:
#font-face {
font-family: 'Reg';
font-style: normal;
font-weight: 400;
src: local('Reg'), url(carmelit.ttf) format('ttf');
}
body{
font-family: 'Reg';
}
This is not working, and not because I'm overriding it later on. The file "carmelit.ttf" is in the same folder as the CSS file.
format('ttf') should be format('truetype')
You can also remove the local info unless you're supporting ancient versions of IE.
You should also try like this:
#font-face {
font-family: myFirstFont;
src: url(sansation_light.woff);
}
div {
font-family: myFirstFont;
}

I am trying to load a font from a folder using sass like so:
#font-face {
font-family: "myFont";
font-style: normal;
font-weight: 300;
src: url("/wwwroot/assets/fonts/sampleFont.otf") format("embedded-opentype")
}
h1 {
font-family: "myFont";
font-style: normal;
font-weight: 300;
color:#fff;
}
The problem is that I can't see the font been applied (i am currently using chrome and I have also tested it on Edge without success)
The path seems correct else webpack would have failed the build.
Is there anything I am missing or misunderstood?
I am using #font-face like this:
#font-face {
font-family: DINPro;
font-weight: bold;
src: url(../res/fonts/DINPro-Bold.otf) format("opentype");
}
#font-face {
font-family: DINPro;
src: url(../res/fonts/DINPro-Regular.otf) format("opentype");
}
#font-face {
font-family: DFLiHei;
src: url(../res/fonts/DFLiHei-Regular.ttf) format('truetype');
}
h1{
font-family: DFLiHei !important;
}
But not working.
My folder structure is likely:
/index.html
/css/style.css
/res/fonts/DINPro-Bold.otf
/res/fonts/DINPro-Regular.otf
/res/fonts/DFLiHei-Regular.ttf
Therefore, I think wrong directory is not my problem.
Also, not only fail in special browser, but also in chrome and mobile.
Any idea?
Convert ttf to woff format
Try this
#font-face {
font-family: DFLiHei;
src: url(../res/fonts/DFLiHei-Regular.woff) format('woff');
}
It will work in all browsers
I downloaded a new font and stores in in ${RootFolder}/font.
In styles.css file I wrote:
#font-face {
font-family: roboto;
url('../fonts/Roboto-Italic.ttf');
}
h1 {
font-family: roboto;
}
In html I wrote:
<h1> hello </h1>
And still I don't see that font has changed.
Do you know what I did wrong?
Try using it like this:
#font-face {
font-family: "roboto";
src: url('fonts/Roboto-Italic.ttf');
}
h1 {
font-family: roboto;
}
Use google fonts https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Roboto
Just import this into the css. Replace the #font-face with:
#import url('https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto:300,400,700');
And use like font-family: roboto;
in your font-face add src: url('../fonts/Roboto-Italic.ttf'); instead of url('../fonts/Roboto-Italic.ttf');

I don't understand how to get this to work, any help would be appreciated;
I'm going off of what I got from this website: http://alistapart.com/article/cssatten
from my style.css
#font-face {
font-family: "JSL";
src: url(http://ff.static.1001fonts.net/j/s/jsl-ancient.normal.ttf) format("truetype");
}
font {
color: #000000;
font-size: 120%;
font-family: "JSL";
}
Neither is the plus sign the issue (tested with my renamed fonts), nor do you have to import a separate css file at the top of your main css file.
However, you may need to have more versions of your font than just the true type. Have a look at Bulletproof #font-face Syntax.
You may use FontSquirrel’s generator to achieve this.
Here is an example of a #font-face embed in my application, which is pinned right at the top of my main css stylesheet.
#font-face {
font-family: 'JustVector';
src: url('../fonts/justvectorv2+webfont.eot');
src: url('../fonts/justvectorv2+webfont.eot?') format('eot'),
url('../fonts/justvectorv2+webfont.woff') format('woff'),
url('../fonts/justvectorv2+webfont.ttf') format('truetype'),
url('../fonts/justvectorv2+webfont.svg#webfontkw9J4lGf') format('svg');
font-weight: normal;
font-style: normal;
}
no
#font-face
Try get inport it:
#import_your_new_cssfile.css
whre you put:
font-face {
font-family: "JSL";
src: url(http://www.fontyukle.net/en/DownLoad-JSL+Ancient.ttf) format("truetype");
}
font {
color: #000000;
font-size: 120%;
font-family: "JSL";
}
Is perhaps the "+" sign in the font URL a problem? You might want to URL encode it.
Edit - after hitting the font URL, it looks like you should try to download the ttf file, and refer to it locally, rather than from a remote source. It's prompting me for a Captcha in order to download the file, which is probably why it's not working.
You do need to download the file and refer to it locally,
The link supported there is a download link and requires a Captcha to be downloaded which means it is NOT a direct link to the TTF File.
Depending on the Font you may need to use:
#font-face {
font-family: 'someFont';
src: url('path/to/font/someFont.eot');
src: url('path/to/font/someFont.eot?#iefix'), format('embedded-opentype'),
url('path/to/font/someFont.woff'), format('woff'),
url('path/to/font/someFont.ttf'), format('truetype'),
url('path/to/font/someFont.svg'), format('svg');
font-weight: normal;
font-style: normal;
}
and in CSS:
BODY
{
font-family: 'someFont', Fallback, sans-serif;
font-size: 12px;
...
}
This worked for me when I had issues wityh embedding a custom font.
I really need help with #font-face code.
IT doesn't seem to see my font file.
I tried changing the path to anything I could think of, made new folders, renamed existing ones, put the font file in my root etc.
I'm testing in Firefox and Chrome.
Here are the codes that I tried in my CSS:
src: url(http://thefalljourneyindia.iblogger.org/wp-content/themes/thefalltheme/images/Univers.ttf);
src: url(thefalljourneyindia.iblogger.org/wp-content/themes/thefalltheme/images/Univers.ttf);
src: url(http://www.thefalljourneyindia.iblogger.org/wp-content/themes/thefalltheme/images/Univers.ttf);
src: url(www.thefalljourneyindia.iblogger.org/wp-content/themes/thefalltheme/images/Univers.ttf);
src: url(/wp-content/themes/thefalltheme/images/Univers.ttf);
src: url(../wp-content/themes/thefalltheme/images/Univers.ttf);
src: url(wp-content/themes/thefalltheme/images/Univers.ttf);
src: url(/thefalltheme/images/Univers.ttf);
src: url(../thefalltheme/images/Univers.ttf);
src: url(thefalltheme/images/Univers.ttf);
src: url(/images/Univers.ttf);
src: url(../images/Univers.ttf);
src: url(images/Univers.ttf);
src: url(www.thefalljourneyindia.iblogger.org/Univers.ttf);
src: url(/Univers.ttf);
src: url(Univers.ttf);
src: url(../Univers.ttf);
Can you find out where I should put the font file or what to change in my CSS to get it to work?
(I also checked the similar questions here and elsewhere on the net and tried using this website to no avail.)
Thanks!
UPDATE:
bozdoz's suggestion doesn't work.
I used FontSquirrel to get the fonts.
This is the CSS:
#font-face {
font-family: 'lane';
src: url('http://thefalljourneyindia.iblogger.org/wp-content/themes/thefalltheme/images/univers-webfont.eot');
src: url('thttp://thefalljourneyindia.iblogger.org/wp-content/themes/thefalltheme/images/univers-webfont.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'),
url('http://thefalljourneyindia.iblogger.org/wp-content/themes/thefalltheme/images/univers-webfont.woff') format('woff'),
url('http://thefalljourneyindia.iblogger.org/wp-content/themes/thefalltheme/images/univers-webfont.ttf') format('truetype'),
url('http://thefalljourneyindia.iblogger.org/wp-content/themes/thefalltheme/images/univers-webfont.svg#LaneHumouresqueRegular') format('svg');
font-weight: normal;
font-style: normal;
}
h1{ font-size: 110px;
font-family: 'lane', georgia, serif;
color: #000000;
}
I used the name 'lane' just because bozdoz had it.
All of the fonts are here:
http://thefalljourneyindia.iblogger.org/wp-content/themes/thefalltheme/images/
and these are their names:
univers-webfont.eot, univers-webfont.woof, univers-webfont.ttf, univers-webfont.svg
Are you using it correctly? Here is the format for #font-face. Notice the number of files. You can use Font Squirrel to create all of the necessary fonts for cross-browser compatibility. Also, it looks like you're using WordPress. I believe you have to use absolute paths (i.e. the first one in your list) in CSS on WordPress. Hope this helps.
<style>
#font-face {
font-family: 'lane';
src: url('type/lanehum-webfont.eot');
src: url('type/lanehum-webfont.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'),
url('type/lanehum-webfont.woff') format('woff'),
url('type/lanehum-webfont.ttf') format('truetype'),
url('type/lanehum-webfont.svg#LaneHumouresqueRegular') format('svg');
font-weight: normal;
font-style: normal;
}
.font { font-family:"lane", arial, serif; }
</style>
You want to do something like this:
#font-face { font-family: Delicious; src: url('Delicious-Roman.otf'); }
The font definition file must be relative to your css file. So if your css is at:
/Content/css/main.css
Then your font must be located in the same folder. If you specify
#font-face { font-family: Delicious; src: url('fonts/Delicious-Roman.otf'); }
Then your font definition would be at
/Content/css/fonts/Delicious-Roman.otf
You might want to verify that your server is not blocking your fonts from being downloaded. Try the URL and see if you get a 404 or 403 at the given url.
You should try fontSuirrel's generator, their scripts have been vastly tested and compliant with many browsers. Choose advanced settings when generating your fonts. Certain browsers may not have the ability to use ttf as a font so they provide you with eot woff and ttf
My suggestions from the comments as an answer:
Try with quotes:
url("Univers.ttf");
Check you have font-family or otherwise you cannot use your font in your code:
font-family: "MyFontName";
Your custom font family you would use in css like:
p { font-family: "MyFontName", Arial, sans-serif; }
First of all, thank you all for your great, great help!
There was no problem with the #font-face code.
The problem was with my overall CSS.
You see, my CSS was written like this:
/*
Info
*/
#media screen {
* {
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
}
html { background: black url(images/bg.jpg); }
body { font: 14px/1.4 Georgia, serif; }
article, aside, figure, footer, header, nav, section { display: block; }
#font-face {
font-family: 'lane';
src: url('http://thefalljourneyindia.iblogger.org/wp-content/themes/thefalltheme/images/univers-webfont.eot');
src: url('thttp://thefalljourneyindia.iblogger.org/wp-content/themes/thefalltheme/images/univers-webfont.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'),
url('http://thefalljourneyindia.iblogger.org/wp-content/themes/thefalltheme/images/univers-webfont.woff') format('woff'),
url('http://thefalljourneyindia.iblogger.org/wp-content/themes/thefalltheme/images/univers-webfont.ttf') format('truetype'),
url('http://thefalljourneyindia.iblogger.org/wp-content/themes/thefalltheme/images/univers-webfont.svg#LaneHumouresqueRegular') format('svg');
font-weight: normal;
font-style: normal;
}
etc.
The problem was that #font-face wasn't seen because it was after #media screen!
After I put it in front of #media screen and after /* Info */ it worked flawlessly.
Also, seems like I can use absolute and relative paths when using Wordpress...
Once again, thank you all for all your help!
