.EOT font not displaying in IE8 and below - css

this is driving me crazy for over a week, so I'll appreciate any help.
Im trying to import a custom font into my webpage. I'v donde it a thousand times, but this time i dont get it to work into IE 8 and below.
my css code is:
<style>
#font-face {
font-family: 'Bello-Script';
src: url('fonts/Bello-Script.eot?');
src: url('fonts/Bello-Script.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'),
url('fonts/Bello-Script.woff') format('woff'),
url('fonts/Bello-Script.ttf') format('truetype'),
url('../fonts/Bello-Script.svg#Bello-Script') format('svg');
font-weight: normal;
font-style: normal;
}
</style>
HTML code:
<div style="font-family:'Bello-Script', Verdana">the quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog</div>
you can check it working here: https://metrikstudios.com/want/fbapp/font-test.php
Generally I convert to .EOT through fontsquirrel, however this font is blacklisted. I bought the complete commercial liscence, but they dont have a .EOT for sale.
So I'v used all the converters I found to create the .EOT, however I have not been able to display the font in IE8. Therefore im guesing that the problem is not the .EOT file, but something else.
Thanks in advance

If the font is blacklisted at FontSquirrel, the usual reason is that the rightholder of the font does not allow it to be used as a web font. If you have bought a license that allows such use, contact the vendor. If not, don’t use it. A license allows web font usage only if it explicitly says so or explicitly allows any use. It is possible that IE disallows the use of the EOT font because it checks usage rights.

Just solved the problem, hope it helps someone:
It was the .eot file that was not working. You can check it working correctly right now at the link shown before:

Made the .eot with microsoft weft and it worked correctly.

Using #font-face in tumblr not working with RTL script

I am trying to embed a font file to my tumblr blog using #font-face and Font Squirrel kit, but so far I had no luck. I also used base64 encoding for embedding the font, but neither in Safari nor Firefox I cannot get it to work.
Edit: Uploading files and using them to tumblr's static area works in Safari and for Latin script. The font I am trying to use includes characters from Old Turkic script, and I cannot get these to work. Any advice regarding the complex scripts would be appreciated.
My code is below:
#font-face {
font-family: 'orkunregular';
src: url('http://static.tumblr.com/gaobkbe/d1rn63eux/orkun-regular-webfont.eot');
}

How to proceed from now on?
Don't try to store and serve the font files on tumblr itself. This is likely not permitted by Tumblr TOS.
Put the font files somewhere else and it will work.
What you have done so far is, you defined the font-family. That will not make the browser use it.
Add this to your current custom css.
section.post {
font-family: "orkunregular";
}
You need to apply that Font to the HTML-Elements you want to use it on.
section.post would be only your own blogposts.
if you want everything to use that font, try:
* {
font-family: "orkunregular" !important;
}
Please check the TOS of Tumblr if they allow that kind of customization, or atleast host those Fonts on a seperate webserver.
Okay, I've solved it. When generating the font kit, I chose the Unicode range of the Old Turkic script, then when used the new kit, it displayed without any problems.

Thanks for all the answers.

Font not rendering properly / font-face not working?

I hope I'm asking this question in the right place,
I'm working on a website for a friend, here's the site hosted on my goDaddy acc:
http://www.andkensol.com/rowanWeb/
And here it is on my friends:
http://www.rowanmoore.org/
You can see the clear difference in the title font. If you inspect them you'll see they are both using CODE. I personally uploaded all the files myself and the file structure, layout, file paths are all identical yet the font won't render on my friends site.
I downloaded the font from font squirrel and I'm using #font face to implement it in both sites.
CSS
#font-face {
font-family: CODE;
src: url('font/CODE Light.otf');
}
#nameTitle{
font-size:60px;
font-family:CODE;
color:white;
font-weight:400;
margin-bottom:-3%;
}
The 'font folder' is in the same folder as the stylesheet and CODE Light.otf is in the font folder.
Ive deleted the site from my friends server, downloaded it from mine and then uploaded it to my friends and still no luck.
Could this be a problem on goDaddy's end perhaps?
I recommend you to use some webgenerator to generate css file with different formats of font.
I think your problem is wrong #font-face.
#font-face {
font-family: 'nfs';
src: url('yourFont.eot');
src: url('yourFont.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'),
url('yourFont.woff') format('woff'),
url('yourFont.ttf') format('truetype'),
url('yourFont.svg#yourFontName') format('svg');
font-weight: normal;
font-style: normal;
}
Diffrenet browser need other format to render and open font.
I'm using mostly those three webfont generators
http://onlinefontconverter.com/
http://www.fontsquirrel.com/tools/webfont-generator
http://convertfonts.com/
But there is more, type to uncle google "font generator"
EDIT: i think blank space in your font/CODE Light.otf is the problem try to use for example something like this font/CODE_Light.otf
I guess it's a matter of access rights of your folders/files.
Something like 644 would be necessary for a file to be able to access the font from the outside web (the last 4 => read access for public). You can either use chmod on the console or change the rights in your ftp-client.
Also, you should support more than otf, or you will most likely lock out a significant amount of Internet Explorer Users.

Custom font doesn't work in IE8 in Zope/Plone

I'm making a Web Portal using Zope/Plone4 CMS.
Well, I used #font-face to declare the typography for headings.
The code and font are from Font-squirrel.
I made the website in local machine (without install the font in my PC) and everything works fine.
But in Plone, IE8 doesn't render the font at all. ONLY IE8, when IE7 and IE9 renders perfectly (?)
I made a test using Google Fonts. Everything works fine, all browsers.
I think it's possible that the error come from read/write permissions or something, because the font doesn't render at all in any IE if I was logged out.
This explains why Google Fonts render correctly (font is hosted outside Plone). But doesn't explain the only-IE8 issue...
I post the code here, well, I think is irrelevant, but if it helps...
#font-face {
font-family: 'TeXGyreAdventorRegular';
src: url('../font/texgyreadventor-regular-webfont.eot');
src: url('../font/texgyreadventor-regular-webfont.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'),
url('../font/texgyreadventor-regular-webfont.woff') format('woff'),
url('../font/texgyreadventor-regular-webfont.ttf') format('truetype'),
url('../font/texgyreadventor-regular-webfont.svg#TeXGyreAdventorRegular') format('svg');
font-weight: normal;
font-style: normal;
}
h1 {font-family:'TeXGyreAdventorRegular'}
I'm not Zope developer and don't have programming skills, Don't know if I'm looking for a solution in right way. I mean, I think CSS is correct and the problem comes from other side. But want to exploit all posibilities in my hand before definitely abandoned custom fonts from this site.
Note: Google Fonts works right, but all the fonts I have tested render very awful in Windows, and the site must be very accesible (and perfect legible). I prefer to avoid it.
You have to add an .eot (Embedded Open Type) file. This format was created by Microsoft over 15 years ago. It’s the only format that IE8 and below will recognize when using #font-face.
You can make one easily by using the free converter ttf2oet

Using custom fonts using CSS?

I've seen some new websites that are using custom fonts on their sites (other than the regular Arial, Tahoma, etc.).
And they support a nice amount of browsers.
How does one do that? While also preventing people from having free access to download the font, if possible.
Generically, you can use a custom font using #font-face in your CSS. Here's a very basic example:
#font-face {
font-family: 'YourFontName'; /*a name to be used later*/
src: url('http://domain.example/fonts/font.ttf'); /*URL to font*/
}
Then, trivially, to use the font on a specific element:
.classname {
font-family: 'YourFontName';
}
(.classname is your selector).
Note that certain font-formats don't work on all browsers; you can use fontsquirrel.com's generator to avoid too much effort converting.
You can find a nice set of free web-fonts provided by Google Fonts (also has auto-generated CSS #font-face rules, so you don't have to write your own).
while also preventing people from having free access to download the font, if possible
Nope, it isn't possible to style your text with a custom font embedded via CSS, while preventing people from downloading it. You need to use images, Flash, or the HTML5 Canvas, all of which aren't very practical.
To make sure that your font is cross-browser compatible, make sure that you use this syntax:
#font-face {
font-family: 'Comfortaa Regular';
src: url('Comfortaa.eot');
src: local('Comfortaa Regular'),
local('Comfortaa'),
url('Comfortaa.ttf') format('truetype'),
url('Comfortaa.svg#font') format('svg');
}
Taken from here.
You have to download the font file and load it in your CSS.
F.e. I'm using the Yanone Kaffeesatz font in my Web Application.
I load and use it via
#font-face {
font-family: "Yanone Kaffeesatz";
src: url("../fonts/YanoneKaffeesatz-Regular.ttf");
}
in my stylesheet.
Today there are four font container formats in use on the web: EOT, TTF, WOFF,andWOFF2.
Unfortunately, despite the wide range of choices, there isn't a single universal format that works across all old and new browsers:
EOT is IE only,
TTF has partial IE support,
WOFF enjoys the widest support but is not available in some older browsers
WOFF 2.0 support is a work in progress for many browsers.
If you want your web app to have the same font across all browsers then you might want to provide all 4 font type in CSS
#font-face {
font-family: 'besom'; !important
src: url('fonts/besom/besom.eot');
src: url('fonts/besom/besom.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'),
url('fonts/besom/besom.woff2') format('woff2'),
url('fonts/besom/besom.woff') format('woff'),
url('fonts/besom/besom.ttf') format('truetype'),
url('fonts/besom/besom.svg#besom_2regular') format('svg');
font-weight: normal;
font-style: normal;
}
If you dont find any fonts that you like from Google.com/webfonts or fontsquirrel.com you can always make your own web font with a font you made.
here's a nice tutorial: Make your own font face web font kit
Although im not sure about preventing someone from downloading your font.
Hope this helps,
there's also an interesting tool called CUFON. There's a demonstration of how to use it in this blog
It's really simple and interesting. Also, it doesn't allow people to ctrl+c/ctrl+v the generated content.
I am working on Win 8, use this code. It works for IE and FF, Opera, etc.
What I understood are : woff font is light et common on Google fonts.
Go here to convert your ttf font to woff before.
#font-face
{
font-family:'Open Sans';
src:url('OpenSans-Regular.woff');
}
First of all, you can't prevent people from downloading fonts except if it is yours and that usually takes months.
And it makes no sense to prevent people from using fonts.
A lot of fonts that you see on websites can be found on free platforms like the one I mentioned below.
But if you want to implement a font into your website read this:
There is a pretty simple and free way to implement fonts into your website.
I would recommend Google fonts because it is free and easy to use.
For example, I'll use the Bangers font from Google.(https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Bangers?query=bangers&sidebar.open&selection.family=Bangers)
This is how it would look like:
HTML
<head>
<link href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=Bangers&display=swap" rel="stylesheet">
</head>
CSS
body {
font-family: 'Bangers', cursive;
}

Firefox not recognizing custom font

I am using the following CSS to define a custom font on a webpage:
#font-face
{
font-family:zapfino;
src:url("zapfino.ttf");
}
Next, I am defining an id that uses it:
#custom_font
{
font-family:zapfino;
font-size:18px;
}
I've tested the page on Safari and Chrome and it works fine. However, in firefox the font is not showing up, it is reverting to a default. Sorry if this is a repost but I have searched on StackOverflow and cannot find the answer! Does anyone know why this is happening? see it here: www.moosecodes.com (its still under construction! please pardon the mess!)
Each browser only reads one file type for webfonts. Unfortunately, they are all different file formats. In order for the font to display correctly in all browsers, you will need 4 different types of font file- TTF, WOFF, SVG & EOT. Your code will look something like this:
#font-face {
font-family: 'Zapfino';
src: url('Zapfino.eot');
src: url('Zapfino.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'),
url('Zapfino.woff') format('woff'),
url('Zapfino.ttf') format('truetype'),
url('Zapfino.svg#SansumiRegular') format('svg');
}
That code is based of the stylesheet included with FontSquirell fonts.
FontSquirell has a converter, but you do need to check your license. Zapfino is a commercial font owned by Adobe(?) and as far as I know using their fonts with #font-face is a violation of the fonts EULAs.
TypeKit offers commercial fonts for use with #font-face for a fee that complies with the foundries EULAs.
jlego is right - you should check out the FontSquirrel site - they have an excellent tool for building your kit and converting your files for you, AND you must always be sure that the font is legal to use on your site.
However Firefox and Chrome should both support TTF, which is the format you are using.
In researching your problem on your site, what I've found is that the font is not rendering properly in any browser I check in. What I've found is while the stylesheet is referencing the right file location, but the font file appears to be corrupted. I would suggest getting a new font file new replace the one you are using.
I had the same problem.... the answer by jlego was usefull to me.
My font was recognized in Chrome and IE.
In FF my TTF wasn't recognized untill I added the format('truetype') in my css file.
