I create a style.css file and insert it in the end of html doc.
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css" type = "text/css" />
</body>
</html>
Now I test my webiste in google.
I do not get any error.
But when I insert this code in the top of style.css I get an error.
code:
#font-face {
font-family: IRANSans;
font-style: normal;
font-weight: bold;
src: url('../fonts/eot/IRANSansWeb_Bold.eot');
src: url('../fonts/eot/IRANSansWeb_Bold.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'), /* IE6-8 */
url('../fonts/woff2/IRANSansWeb_Bold.woff2') format('woff2'), /* FF39+,Chrome36+, Opera24+*/
url('../fonts/woff/IRANSansWeb_Bold.woff') format('woff'), /* FF3.6+, IE9, Chrome6+, Saf5.1+*/
url('../fonts/ttf/IRANSansWeb_Bold.ttf') format('truetype');
}
error in google:
Eliminate render-blocking JavaScript and CSS in above-the-fold content
I checked my code. It is because of .woff and .ttf format.
Is these any way to slove it?
I read befor I must change my code to this:
url("data:application/x-font-woff;charset=utf-8;base64,../fonts/woff/IRANSansWeb_Bold.woff") format('woff'),
Is it true? with that change. I do not get any error else But I am not sure that change works on target browser. what do you think?
Google Page Insights checks if the above the fold content can be rendered without the need of external resources.
Since you are using external fonts, the browser has to load them to render the above the fold content.
Try using the sitelocity.com service for generating the critical css part and see if you still have errors.
I am just getting started with Font Awesome and I must be doing something wrong with referencing files in the package. Icons are not showing up with <i class="icon-music"></i> for example.
The following is the default css except that I changed the file path to adhere my structure.
#font-face {
src: url('../Font/fontawesome-webfont.eot?v=3.2.1');
src: url('../Font/fontawesome-webfont.eot?#iefix&v=3.2.1') format('embedded-opentype'), url('../Font/fontawesome-webfont.woff?v=3.2.1') format('woff'), url('../Font/fontawesome-webfont.ttf?v=3.2.1') format('truetype'), url('../Font/fontawesome-webfont.svg#fontawesomeregular?v=3.2.1') format('svg');
}
Relative path should be correct with all the font types inside Font folder and this folder sits on the same level with Contentfolder that has the stylesheet.
Is the query string appended to font names in the stylesheet for checking browsers? If so, what I done on html page with ie7 conditional comment should be invalid.
<link rel="stylesheet" media="all" href="#Url.Content("~/Content/font-awesome.css")" />
<!--[if IE 7]>
<link rel="stylesheet" media="all" href="#Url.Content("~/Content/font-awesome-ie7.css")" />
<![endif]-->
Should I remove the query string after the font names in the stylesheet and keep the ie7 conditional statement instead or vice versa? or is it something else that you see causing problem?
Your code for the html is not correct this is the right code
<link rel="stylesheet" media="all" href="~/Content/font-awesome.css" type="text/css" />
My website is not showing the appropriate font, PT Sans.ttc. I checked on other browsers and it works fine.
www.farmap-ux.com. Below is CSS code.
#font-face
{
font-family: PT Sans;
font-family: font-family: 'PT Sans', sans-serif;
src: url("http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=PT+Sans")
}
So it works on everything like I said (Chrome, Safari, even Opera!) Any ideas? I've tried to find .woff files for the font but I don't think it's in my Font Book.
Maybe it's because your #font-face declaration isn't valid at all. It should be something like:
#font-face
{
font-family: 'PT Sans';
font-style: normal;
font-weight: 400;
src: local('PT Sans'), local('PTSans-Regular'), url(http://themes.googleusercontent.com/static/fonts/ptsans/v4/LKf8nhXsWg5ybwEGXk8UBQ.woff) format('woff');
}
However, it's even better to use the CSS file provided by google:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=PT+Sans">
If you want to stick to a CSS import use
#import url(http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=PT+Sans);
You should really check your css! The syntaxe is miles away from correct.
Also, http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=PT+Sans is already a css file!
what you should do is import is put it directly into the <head> your html using the link tag.
Have a look at this example: http://www.w3schools.com/tags/tag_link.asp, or just add the following to your html file as said before.
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=PT+Sans">
Following the directions at Google Webfonts should fix your problem.
First, make sure you're including the Google CSS necessary to reference the font files. You have the option to include a LINK tag in your HTML, a #import directive in your CSS, or some Javascript. I recommend the LINK tag for maximum browser compatibility:
<link href='http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=PT+Sans' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'>
When adding this CSS to your site, Google will automatically determine the correct font type to use for your browser. Not all browsers use WOFF files. Older versions of IE use EOT files, some browsers prefer SVG or TTF. Google is able to sniff for the browser type and modify the included CSS as necessary.
After Google's CSS is included, you only have to reference the font family in your CSS where you want the font to appear.
font-family: 'PT Sans', sans-serif;
That's the only CSS necessary. Remove all the other CSS you linked… as mentioned in the other answers your CSS has some errors.
Try:
#font-face {
font-family: 'PT Sans';
font-weight: normal;
src: url("http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=PT+Sans");
}
So IE9 spits out an error on using a google fonts include like the following:
<link href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Lato:300,400,700,900" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
IE9 spits out an error, even though the fonts still load fine:
CSS3111: #font-face encountered unknown error.
I'd gladly ignore this error if I weren't writing content that is iframed on other people's webpages. :(
Hosting the EOT files locally resolves the issue for IE:
< !--[if IE 9]>
< link rel="stylesheet" href="/survey/css/lato-ie.css" type="text/css" />
< ![endif]-->
And in that file..
#font-face {
font-family: "Lato";
font-style: normal;
font-weight: 400;
src: url("/Lato-Reg-webfont.eot") format("embedded-opentype");
}
#font-face {
font-family: "Lato";
font-style: normal;
font-weight: 900;
src: url("/Lato-Bla-webfont.eot") format("embedded-opentype");
}
Include it in IE9, error's gone, works great.
Now my problem is, I need to include the google font stylesheet for everyone but IE9. For example, I can't do:
< !--[if !IE 9]>
< link href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Lato:300,400,700,900" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
< ![endif]-->
Or firefox won't even see the damn include.
Are IE's devs conspiring to waste all of our time?
You were on the right track, you just need to use a downlevel-revealed conditional comment: it will hide it from IE but will be picked up by other browsers.
One question, are you trying to view your files locally?
The google fonts doesnt render locally, even thou they are linked to absolute outside links. (In case of IEs)
localhost/project/index.html = good
C:\Project\index.html = bad
I've been developing a site that uses the Google Fonts API. It's great, and supposedly has been tested in IE, but when testing in IE 8 the fonts simply don't get styled.
I included the font, as Google instructs, thus:
<link href="http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Josefin+Sans+Std+Light"
rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
and added its name to the front of a font family in CSS thus:
body {
font-family: "Josefin Sans Std Light", "Times New Roman", Times, serif;
font-size: 16px;
overflow-y: scroll;
overflow-x: hidden;
color: #05121F;
}
Works like a charm in Chrome, Firefox, Safari. No dice in IE 8. Anybody know why?
Looks like IE8-IE7 can't understand multiple Google Web Font styles through the same file request using the link tags href.
These two links helped me figure this out:
See this open Google issue, and look at the comments.
Also see this StackOverlow Answer Google Web Fonts don't work in
IE8
The only way I have gotten it to work in IE7-IE8 is to only have one Google Web Font request. And only have one font style in the href of the link tag:
So normally you would have this, declaring multiple font styles in the same request:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Open+Sans:400,600,300,800,700,400italic" />
But in IE7-IE8 add a IE conditional and specify each Google font style separately and it will work:
<!--[if lte IE 8]>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Open+Sans:400" />
<link rel="stylesheet" href="http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Open+Sans:700" />
<link rel="stylesheet" href="http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Open+Sans:800" />

Hope this can help others!
The method, as indicated by their technical considerations page, is correct - so you're definitely not doing anything wrong. However, this bug report on Google Code indicate that there is a problem with the fonts Google produced for this, specifically the IE version. This only seems to affect only some fonts, but it's a real bummmer.
The answers on the thread indicate that the problem lies with the files Google's serving up, so there's nothing you can do about it. The author suggest getting the fonts from alternative locations, like FontSquirrel, and serving it locally instead, in which case you might also be interested in sites like the League of Movable Type.
N.B. As of Oct 2010 the issue is reported as fixed and closed on the Google Code bug report.
Google Fonts uses Web Open Font Format (WOFF), which is good, because it's the recommended font format by the W3C.
IE versions older than IE9 don't support Web Open Font Format (WOFF) because it didn't exist back then. To support < IE9, you need to serve your font in Embedded Open Type (EOT). To do this you will need to write your own #font-face css tag instead of using the embed script from Google. Also you need to convert the original WOFF file to EOT.
You can convert your WOFF to EOT over here by first converting it to TTF and then to EOT:
http://convertfonts.com/
Then you can serve the EOT font like this:
#font-face {
font-family: 'MyFont';
src: url('myfont.eot');
}
Now it works in < IE9. However, modern browsers don't support EOT anymore, so now your fonts won't work in modern browsers. So you need to specify them both. The src property supports this by comma seperating the font urls and specefying the type:
src: url('myfont.woff') format('woff'),
url('myfont.eot') format('embedded-opentype');
However, < IE9 doesn't understand this, it just graps the text between the first quote and the last quote, so it will actually get:
myfont.woff') format('woff'),
url('myfont.eot') format('embedded-opentype
as the URL to the font. We can fix this by first specifying a src with only one url which is the EOT format, then specifying a second src property that's meant for the modern browsers and < IE9 will not understand. Because < IE9 will not understand it it will ignore the tag so the EOT will still be working. The modern browsers will use the last specified font they support, so probably WOFF.
src: url('myfont.eot');
src: url('myfont.woff') format('woff');
So only because in the second src property you specify the format('woff'), < IE9 won't understand it (or actually it just can't find the font at the url myfont.woff') format('woff) and will keep using the first specified one (eot).
So now you got your Google Webfonts working for < IE9 and modern browsers!
For more information about different font type and browser support, read this perfect article by Alex Tatiyants:
http://tatiyants.com/how-to-get-ie8-to-support-html5-tags-and-web-fonts/
While Yi Jiang's solution may work, I don't believe abandoning the Google Web Font API is the right answer here. We serve a local jQuery file when it's not properly loaded from the CDN, right?
<script src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.9.0/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script>window.jQuery || document.write('<script src="/js/jquery-1.9.0.min.js"><\/script>')</script>
So why wouldn't we do the same for fonts, specifically for < IE9?
<link href='http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Cardo:400,400italic,700' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'>
<!--[if lt IE 9]><link href='/css/fonts.css' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'><![endif]-->
Here's my process when using custom fonts:
Download the font's ZIP folder from Google, and use Font Squirrel's
#font-face Generator to create the local web font.
Create a fonts.css file that calls the newly created, locally hosted font files (only linking to the file if < IE9, as shown above). NOTE: The #font-face Generator creates this file for you.
#font-face {
font-family: 'cardoitalic';
src: url('cardo-italic-webfont.eot');
src: url('cardo-italic-webfont.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'),
url('cardo-italic-webfont.woff') format('woff'),
url('cardo-italic-webfont.ttf') format('truetype'),
url('cardo-italic-webfont.svg#cardoitalic') format('svg');
font-weight: normal;
font-style: normal;
}
#font-face {
font-family: 'cardobold';
src: url('cardo-bold-webfont.eot');
src: url('cardo-bold-webfont.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'),
url('cardo-bold-webfont.woff') format('woff'),
url('cardo-bold-webfont.ttf') format('truetype'),
url('cardo-bold-webfont.svg#cardobold') format('svg');
font-weight: normal;
font-style: normal;
}
#font-face {
font-family: 'cardoregular';
src: url('cardo-regular-webfont.eot');
src: url('cardo-regular-webfont.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'),
url('cardo-regular-webfont.woff') format('woff'),
url('cardo-regular-webfont.ttf') format('truetype'),
url('cardo-regular-webfont.svg#cardoregular') format('svg');
font-weight: normal;
font-style: normal;
}
Using IE conditional classes in your main stylesheet to avoide faux weights and styles, your font styles might look like this:
h1{
font-size:3.25em;
font-weight:normal;
font-style:italic;
font-family:'Cardo','cardoitalic',serif;
line-height:1.25em;
}
h2{
font-size:2.75em;
font-weight:700;
font-family:'Cardo','cardobold',serif;
line-height:1.25em;
}
strong
,b{
font-family:'Cardo','cardobold',serif;
font-weight:700,
}
.lt-ie9 h1{
font-style:normal;
}
.lt-ie9 h2{
font-weight:normal;
}
.lt-ie9 strong,
.lt-ie9 b{
font-weight:normal,
}
Sure, it's a little extra work, but haven't we come to expect this from IE? Besides, it becomes second-nature after awhile.
For what its worth, I couldn't get it working on IE7/8/9 and the multiple declaration option didn't make any difference.
The fix for me was as a result of the instructions on the Technical Considerations Page where it highlights...
For best display in IE, make the stylesheet 'link' tag the first
element in the HTML 'head' section.
Works across IE7/8/9 for me now.
I tried all the options from above and they didn't work.
Then I located the google font (Over the Rainbow) in my folder (new) and used IE conditional below and it worked perfect.
<!--[if IE]>
<style type="text/css">
#font-face {
font-family: "Over the Rainbow";
src: url("../new/over.ttf");
src: local("Over the Rainbow"), url("../new/over.ttf");
}
</style>
<![endif]-->
I hope it will help
You can try fontsforweb.com where fonts are working for all browsers, because they are provided in TTF, WOFF and EOT formats together with CSS code ready to be pasted on your page i.e.
#font-face{
font-family: "gothambold1";
src: url('http://fontsforweb.com/public/fonts/5903/gothambold1.eot');
src: local("Gotham-Bold"), url('http://fontsforweb.com/public/fonts/5903/gothambold1.woff') format("woff"), url('http://fontsforweb.com/public/fonts/5903/gothambold1.ttf') format("truetype");
}
.fontsforweb_fontid_5903 {
font-family: "gothambold1";
}
or you can download them zipped in a package with CSS file attached
then just add class to any element to apply that font i.e.
<h2 class="fontsforweb_fontid_5903">This will be written with Gotham Bold font and will work in all browsers</h2>
See it working: http://jsfiddle.net/SD4MP/
It's all about trying all those answers, for me, nothing works except the next solution:
Google font suggested
#import 'https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Assistant';
But, I'm using here foreign language fonts, and it didn't work on IE11 only. I found out this solution that worked:
#import 'https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Assistant&subset=hebrew';
Hope that save someone precious time
Try this type of link , it will run in also IE . hope this helps .
<link href='//fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Josefin+Sans:300,400,600,700,300italic' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'>
I had the same problem with you.
I found a solution using a Adobe Web Fonts code, work perfect in Internet Explorer, Chrome, Firefox and Safari.
More info in this page: http://html.adobe.com/edge/webfonts/
After my investigation, I came up to this solution:
//writing the below line into the top of my style.css file
#import url('https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Assistant:200,300,400,600,700,800&subset=hebrew');
MUST OBSERVE:
We must need to write the font-weight correctly of this font. For example: font-weight:900; will not work as we have not included 900 like 200,300,400,600,700,800 into the URL address while importing from Google with the above link. We can add or include 900 to the above URL, but that will work only if the above Google Font has this option while embedding.
