I am using some fonts generated from FontSquirrel but it doesn't seem to that IE can't handle the fonts.. What am I doing wrong? This is not a public webpage.. It is builded to work on a local platform until I am ready to launch, that's why the domain name ends on .local.
#font-face {
font-family: 'proxima_light';
src: url('http://www.anotherdomain.local/fonts/proximanova-light-webfont.eot');
src: local('proxima_light'), url('http://www.anotherdomain.local/fonts/proximanova-light-webfont.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'),
url('http://www.anotherdomain.local/fonts/proximanova-light-webfont.woff') format('woff'),
url('http://www.anotherdomain.local/fonts/proximanova-light-webfont.ttf') format('truetype'),
url('http://www.anotherdomain.local/fonts/proximanova-light-webfont.svg#proxima_nova_ltregular') format('svg');
font-style: normal;
}
#font-face {
font-family: 'proxima';
src: url('http://www.anotherdomain.local/fonts/proximanova-regular-webfont.eot');
src: local('proxima'), url('http://www.anotherdomain.local/fonts/proximanova-regular-webfont.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'),
url('http://www.anotherdomain.local/fonts/proximanova-regular-webfont.woff') format('woff'),
url('http://www.anotherdomain.local/fonts/proximanova-regular-webfont.ttf') format('truetype'),
url('http://www.anotherdomain.local/fonts/proximanova-regular-webfont.svg#proxima_nova_rgregular') format('svg');
font-weight: normal;
font-style: normal;
}
#font-face {
font-family: 'proxima';
src: url('http://www.anotherdomain.local/fonts/proximanova-semibold-webfont.eot');
src: local('proxima'), url('http://www.anotherdomain.local/fonts/proximanova-semibold-webfont.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'),
url('http://www.anotherdomain.local/fonts/proximanova-semibold-webfont.woff') format('woff'),
url('http://www.anotherdomain.local/fonts/proximanova-semibold-webfont.ttf') format('truetype'),
url('http://www.anotherdomain.local/fonts/proximanova-semibold-webfont.svg#proxima_nova_ltbold') format('svg');
font-weight: bolder;
font-style: normal;
}
As I said.. it is only IE that doesn't handle the font-face.. Every other browser does it well..
I'm not sure if this'll help, but IE has some similar cross-domain issues as FF. In this case, it might be that your absolute URL is making IE think your font is being served from a different domain. Have you tried using a relative path?
Does Dev Console return error on laod the font files, also could you please provide of the Responce Header of the font file.
I've faced with issue in IE 9 when it didn't use font file in case if Responce header contained Cache-Control: no-cache

I am developing a responsive web application. I encountered a problem that the font family doesn't work as expected on mobile, but it works as expected on a computer. Why is this the case?
Code:
HTML
<link href="css/fonts/fonts.css" rel='stylesheet' type='text/css' />
CSS
#font-face {

Thanks in advance
First, open your SVG file with a text editor and find out if the name you've written in the hashtag for the SVG matches what it says in the file.
If it matches, try this, if not, adjust accordingly.
#font-face {
font-family: 'uni_sans_regular';
src: url('uni-sans-regular-webfont.svg#uni_sans_regularregular') format('svg');
src: url('uni-sans-regular-webfont.ttf') format('truetype');
font-weight: normal;
font-style: normal;
}
body { font-family:'uni_sans_regular',Arial,sans-serif; }
If the font still doesn't display on mobile then I'd assume your SVG or WOFF font files are corrupt, the path to the font file is not correct, or the files aren't downloading to the mobile device for some other reason (slow connection perhaps).
The SVG file should work for Firefox 3.5, Chrome 0.3, Safari 3.1, Opera 9, and all iOS devices. The TTF file will pick up IE9 and Android 2.2. You don't need the EOT file unless you want to cover IE8-. I just reduced it to the minimum number of includes so you can narrow down the issue.
If your hosting the file on an IIS server, you may need to adjust your server settings. IIS will not serve files with unknown MIME types so you must set the MIME type for SVG to image/svg+xml, similarly for WOFF. Instructions from Microsoft (link)
If your testing with a 3rd party browser app on your mobile device, try testing on the default browser that comes with the device because many 3rd party apps have their own quirks.
I integrated a font into my web project. Here comes the CSS code:
#font-face {
font-family: 'vladimirscriptefregular';
src: url('fonts/vladimirscriptef-webfont.eot');
src: url('fonts/vladimirscriptef-webfont.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'),
url('fonts/vladimirscriptef-webfont.woff') format('woff'),
url('fonts/vladimirscriptef-webfont.ttf') format('truetype'),
url('fonts/vladimirscriptef-webfont.svg#vladimirscriptefregular') format('svg');
font-weight: normal;
font-style: normal;
}
My problem is that the font is not displayed in Firefox - instead, Times New Roman is displayed. In all other browsers the font is displayed correctly.
Does anyone see what's missing in my code?
Try the code below:
#font-face {
font-family: 'vladimirscriptefregular';
-moz-font-family:'vladimirscriptefregular';
src: url('fonts/vladimirscriptef-webfont.eot');
src: url('fonts/vladimirscriptef-webfont.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'),
url('fonts/vladimirscriptef-webfont.woff') format('woff'),
url('fonts/vladimirscriptef-webfont.ttf') format('truetype'),
url('fonts/vladimirscriptef-webfont.svg#vladimirscriptefregular') format('svg');
font-weight: normal;
-moz-font-weight:normal
font-style: normal;
-moz-font-style:normal
}
Firefox has a list of fonts which can be used in its whitelist.
It can be accessed by typing "about:config" in the address bar.
Then search for "font.system.whitelist".
Here add your font name which must be present in the Font folder.
For windows the default location is "C:\Windows\Fonts"
My custom fonts aren't rendering in ie8.
I've allready tried clearing the cache, and I'm also sending the correct filetypes if I'm not mistaken.
What am I missing here?
#font-face {
font-family: 'Lobster';
src: url('fonts/lobster.eot');
src: url('fonts/lobster.eot') format('embedded-opentype'),
url('fonts/lobster.woff') format('woff'),
url('fonts/lobster.ttf') format('truetype'),
url('fonts/lobster.svg#Lobster1.4Regular') format('svg');
}
.logoHome{color:#FFF; font: 58px Lobster, serif; text-decoration:none; line-height:58px;}
the problem it is easy solve, just make the url path to be relative:
#font-face {
font-family: 'Lobster';
src: url('http://www.sample.com/fonts/lobster.eot');
src: url('http://www.sample.com/fonts/lobster.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'),
url('http://www.sample.com/fonts/lobster.woff') format('woff'),
url('http://www.sample.com/fonts/lobster.ttf') format('truetype'),
url('http://www.sample.com/fonts/lobster.svg#Lobster13Regular') format('svg');
font-weight: normal;
font-style: normal;
}
but this will only work down to IE8 you can use this caniuse.com to always check which thing you can use in older browsers
The first line gave an error.
Removing:
src: url('fonts/lobster.eot');
Did the trick.
I am trying to use a custom font for my website, but it appears wrong in Chrome (latest) and Opera browsers although it appears correctly (smooth) on other browsers. I tried couple of different fonts, with same results on Chrome/Opera.
My code:
#font-face {
font-family: 'mainFont2';
src: url('../fonts/Eurostile.eot');
src: local('☺'), url('../fonts/Eurostile.woff') format('woff'), url('../fonts/Eurostile.ttf') format('truetype'), url('../fonts/Eurostile.svg') format('svg');
font-weight: normal;
font-style: normal;
}
The issue:
Thats just how the browser and OS renders the font..but try to call the .svg format before the .woff format it might fix this.
#font-face {
font-family: 'mainFont2';
src: url('../fonts/Eurostile.eot');
src: local('☺'),
url('../fonts/Eurostile.svg') format('svg'),
url('../fonts/Eurostile.woff') format('woff'),
url('../fonts/Eurostile.ttf') format('truetype');
font-weight: normal;
font-style: normal;
}
I'll refer you to this question:

Or try font-smooth:

I'm working on a website with a font I uploaded. It works fine in all browsers but in Firefox and IE, when I add www. to the url in the browser, the font doesn't show up? Does anyone know what's up?
This is my CSS declaration:
#font-face {
font-family: 'ITCAvantGardeGothicProDemi';
src: url('../fonts/itcavantgardepro-demi-webfont.eot');
src: url('../fonts/itcavantgardepro-demi-webfont.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'),
url('../fonts/itcavantgardepro-demi-webfont.woff') format('woff'),
url('../fonts/itcavantgardepro-demi-webfont.ttf') format('truetype'),
url('../fonts/itcavantgardepro-demi-webfont.svg#') format('svg');
font-weight: normal;
font-style: normal;
}
Thanks for the help!
