I am using a Gulp plugin (gulp-minify-css) to concat then minify my CSS, and for some reason it strips out the entire #font-face rule from the minified CSS. I am also using fonts from Google Fonts, and it doesn't strip this.
The font face rules
#font-face {
font-family: 'icomoon';
src:url('../fonts/icomoon.eot?91yt6w');
src:url('../fonts/icomoon.eot?#iefix91yt6w') format('embedded-opentype'),
url('../fonts/icomoon.woff?91yt6w') format('woff'),
url('../fonts/icomoon.ttf?91yt6w') format('truetype'),
url('../fonts/icomoon.svg?91yt6w#icomoon') format('svg');
font-weight: normal;
font-style: normal;
}
By all outward appearance, this code is fine. It comes from IcoMoon themselves. I have tried stripping the string after ? in the file url, but that wasn't it.
Anybody have any insight, as we have only just discovered this whilst trying to deploy.

In my site, the icons of font awesome sometimes become squares, and most of the time, they load correctly, i've been looking for that issue in forums, and it seems that this case is not the same as theirs:
the icons are of font awesome and class fa fa-ANYEXAMPLE exists
the fonts are in a folder (/css/fonts) as it should be
the content of the file fontawesome.css are copied in the file bootstrap.css and called in the head of the site
I consider that my links are correct, since the icons load correctly most of the time
What could the problem be?
Open your style.css and link to FontAwesome using font-face:
#font-face {
font-family: 'FontAwesome';
src: url('../fonts/fontawesome-webfont.eot?v=4.6.3');
src: url('../fonts/fontawesome-webfont.eot?#iefix&v=4.6.3') format('embedded-opentype'), url('../fonts/fontawesome-webfont.woff2?v=4.6.3') format('woff2'), url('../fonts/fontawesome-webfont.woff?v=4.6.3') format('woff'), url('../fonts/fontawesome-webfont.ttf?v=4.6.3') format('truetype'), url('../fonts/fontawesome-webfont.svg?v=4.6.3#fontawesomeregular') format('svg');
font-weight: normal;
font-style: normal;
}
Just make sure to edit the paths if they are any different.
I use Brackets code editor and in the live preview it works perfectly but once I upload it onto the actual site it defaults to Arial. I've put the font in the css folder but I just don't understand why it doesn't work on the live site.
Here is my code.
#font-face {
font-family: BMgermar;
src: url('http://example.com/css/BMgermar.TTF') format('truetype');
}
Thanks in advance.
You Most Upload The Font In five Formats To Work Perfectly like This Code
#font-face {
font-family: 'droidkufi';
src: url('../fonts/droidkufi/droidkufi-webfont.eot');
src: url('../fonts/droidkufi/droidkufi-webfont.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'),
url('../fonts/droidkufi/droidkufi-webfont.woff') format('woff'),
url('../fonts/droidkufi/droidkufi-webfont.ttf') format('truetype'),
url('../fonts/droidkufi/droidkufi-webfont.svg#droid_arabic_kufiregular') format('svg');
font-weight: normal;
font-style: normal;
}
And The Font Formats is:
eot
woff
ttf
svg
OR You Can Simply Import The fonts form https://www.google.com/fonts
I am working on a webfonts server and I got the api to spit out the css with the correct mime types.They are also getting linked to the page.
#font-face {
font-family: 'Pagul';
src: url('http://localhost:5000/api/webfonts/static/Pagul.eot');
src: local('☺'), url('http://localhost:5000/api/webfonts/static/Pagul.woff') format('woff'),
url('http://localhost:5000/api/webfonts/static/Pagul.ttf') format('truetype'),
font-weight: normal;
font-style: normal;
}
The ttf,eot files can be downloaded manualy using the links, for some reason these fonts are
not loaded by the browser what am I doing wrong here ? The font files dont have proper mimetypes is that the issue ?
I tried font-squirells syntax also,it's not working.
PS: The Css is dynamically generated and added to the head ?
Use relative paths instead of absolutes. For example, if your CSS is in site/css/style.css and your fonts are in the site/api/webfonts/static/ directory:
#font-face {
font-family: Pagul;
src: url('../api/webfonts/static/Pagul.eot');
src: url('../api/webfonts/static/Pagul.woff') format('woff'),
url('../api/webfonts/static/Pagul.ttf') format('truetype'),
font-weight: normal;
font-style: normal;
}
Alternatively, use a service like Google Fonts and either link their CSS on your HTML or import it directly into your CSS
I can't seem to find the answer I'm looking for. I have an entirely static page, mostly made up of images. The font used to create the images is 'Handwriting-Dakota.ttf' found on any Mac OS X install. I have one dynamic element containing text which i want to give this font to.
I have the ttf font in the same directory as my css file.
#font-face{
font-family: dakota;
src: url('dakota.ttf') format('truetype');
}
In an html file with the css file included. <p style="font-family: dakota;">sometext</p>
I can see the rule applied in chrome's inspector but it does not change the appearance. Is what I'm trying to do impossible or am I doing it wrong?
Use this format
#font-face {
font-family: 'myfont';
src: url('fonts/myfont.eot');
src: url('fonts/myfont.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'),
url('fonts/myfont.woff') format('woff'),
url('fonts/myfont.ttf') format('truetype'),
url('fonts/myfont.svg#rsuregular') format('svg');
}
To further gain more knowledge about font-face syntax, read Bulletproof #font-face Syntax.
To get all versions of the font. google the "font converter", there will be plenty of font converter services in first page.
Make sure the url is relative to the css file and not to the webroot.
#font-face{
font-family: 'dakota';
src: url('../fonts/dakota.ttf') format('truetype');
}
And you probably should add other types to make sure other browsers can use the font without problems.
#font-face {
font-family: 'dakota';
src: url('../fonts/dakota.eot');
src: url('../fonts/dakota.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'),
url('../fonts/dakota.woff') format('woff'),
url('../fonts/dakota.ttf') format('truetype'),
url('../fonts/dakota.svg#rsuregular') format('svg');
}
#Cobolt, you can try FontSquirrel. http://www.fontsquirrel.com/fontface/generator.
All you need is .otf or .ttf file. Then, FontSquirrel will make the .svg, .eot, .woff for you and create a css file.
#font-face {
font-family: 'advertisingmediumregular';
src: url('fonts/advertisingmedium-webfont.eot');
src: url('fonts/advertisingmedium-webfont.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'),
url('fonts/advertisingmedium-webfont.woff') format('woff'),
url('fonts/advertisingmedium-webfont.ttf') format('truetype'),
url('fonts/advertisingmedium-webfont.svg#advertisingmediumregular') format('svg');
font-weight: bold;
font-style: normal;
}
the text disappear in google chrome when I wrote this code can anyone help me please
I already had the same problem. I was adviced to generate my web fonts with a tool like the FontSquirrel webkit fonts generator. Upload your font's files and download back a all browsers compatible pack. Include the css in your HTML page in addition to yours. And it seems to work since I do like this. I hope it will be the same for you.
