Font-Family does not change - html

I have downloaded the Twitch font, which is Twitchy.TV.
I'm trying to use it, but when I type the font, it doesn't recognize it.
I think it might be because Twitchy (.) TV. The period is messing it up.
I have tried putting it with "" or ''.
<div class="navigation">
<div class="left">
<img src="Logo.png" id="logoImage">
<h1>TWITCH</h1>
</div>
</div>
.left h1 { font-size: 22px; color: #fff; font-family: Twitchy.TV; }

Have you included a #font-face declaration in your CSS?
Nowadays the best format for using fonts on the web is .woff or woff2 files, if you don't have your font in this format there are a lot of web font converters available.
#font-face {
font-family: 'Twitchy.TV';
src: url('Twitchy.TV.woff2') format('woff2'),
url('Twitchy.TV.woff') format('woff')
}
(Assuming you have font files in the same directory as your stylesheet named Twitchy.TV.woff and/or Twitchy.TV.woff2)
If you're just testing the font during development and have it locally installed, you can specify a local installation like this:
#font-face {
font-family: 'Twitchy.TV';
src: local('Twitchy.TV');
}
Then you are able to use it like:
.left h1 {
font-family: 'Twitchy.TV';
}

Ensure that you have imported the font if it is from an external source!
If you have downloaded the font, make sure that you have added it to the list of font-families in your computer. This can be done in the Control Panel.

You need to import the font at the top of your CSS using #font-face. This allows you to use non-websafe fonts in your website. the src: url can be either a path in the local storage or on an external site.
#font-face {
font-family: "Twitchy.TV";
src: url("path/to/font.ttf");
}
You can use the font like this
.left h1 {
font-family: "Twitchy.TV";
}

first of all upload you font here https://transfonter.org/ and then you will have generated font prepared and add all your fonts to assets folder and in style.css or style.scss open downloaded folder from transfonter and copy what's inside stylesheets.scss and add to your style.css and then make sure to be correct path to fonts assets/fonts for exameple
#font-face {
font-family: 'Roboto';
src: url('Roboto-Black.woff2') format('woff2'),
url('Roboto-Black.woff') format('woff');
font-weight: 900;
font-style: normal;
}
And then in style.css use it, example
h1 {
color: red;
font-family: 'Roboto', sans-serif; //Here you add default font in case the browser
can't find Roboto font
}

Font Change In Different Devices

i use a font in my web page.there is not any problem in chrome and Firefox and IE in my computer but in other Devices the font changes.
Someone knows why this happens?
*{
font-family: Montserrat;
}
The font is installed in your system, therefore, it's not changed in your device. you need to add the font in your code.
e.g
#import url('https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Open+Sans');
add in the CSS file change the link with your require font
or if you have a font file then add the font file in the CSS as
#font-face { font-family: roboto-regular;
src: url('../font/Roboto-Regular.ttf'); }
h2{
font-family: roboto-regular;
}
You must define your font in your css file.
For Ex:
#font-face {
font-family: myFirstFont;
src: url(font-location);
}
* {
font-family: myFirstFont;
}
It is possible that some browsers/OS/Devices doesn't support that font.
Define multiple fonts.
* {
font-family: 'Montserrat', sans-serif;
}
Another solution can be download Google Web Fonts, upload them with your website and define them in the css files manually. Another way may be usage of JavaScript Web Font Loader instead of the default one.
In your Header:
<link href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=Caesar+Dressing&display=swap"
rel="stylesheet">
In your CSS:
#import url('https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=Caesar+Dressing&display=swap');
.fontn{
font-family:'Caesar Dressing', cursive;
}

How to use a font in html/css

I am building a website for school, and want to use a special font, but when I import it, it doesn't show the font. I tried using the #face-font{font-family: something; src: url(font.ttf); The css I use it on looks like this: header{font-family: something;}And I tried this also with a .otf file, but that didn't work either. I also tried <link ref="font" href="font.ttf"> And also this with a .otf file. But in al cases the font didnt show up. Is it my fault in some code, or is the font just not useable? The link to the font is: http://www.fontspace.com/darrell-flood/quiet-meows
To include the custom font you'll need this somewhere in your CSS:
#font-face {
font-family: 'QuietMeows';
src: url('../fonts/quiet_meows.ttf') format('truetype'),
url('../fonts/quiet_meows.otf') format('opentype');
}
After downloading the font you will need to move it into your project, I put it into a fonts folder and renamed to be quiet_meows.
Then you can use it in your CSS like this:
p {
font-family: 'QuietMeows';
}
Note: If the name of a font family is more than one word, it must be in quotation marks, like: "Times New Roman".
<style>
#font-face {
font-family: myFirstFont;
src: url(sansation_light.woff);
}
#font-face {
font-family: myFirstFont;
src: url(sansation_bold.woff);
font-weight: bold;
}
* {
font-family: myFirstFont;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<h1>The #font-face Rule</h1>
<div>
With CSS, websites can use <b>fonts other than the pre-selected "web-safe" fonts</b>.
</div>
<p><b>Note:</b> Internet Explorer 8 and earlier, do not support the #font-face rule.</p>
The problem was fixed by adding the format tag. After this, the font did show up on the page. The end looked like this.
#font-face{
font-family: "quiet meows";
src: url('font.ttf') format('truetype');
}

Adding custom font to website (HTML/CSS)

I am currently trying to add a custom font to my website but it wont seem to work, I am not very good atm programming but my friend isn't home so I just wanted to get a solution for him. It currently works if using Calibri as font but any custom downloaded fonts dosent work. He is trying to use the HelveticaNeue font. The font is located in a folder called "fonts" in godaddy's server folder thing. Thanks! :) Here is the code:
#font-face {
font-family: "HelveticaNeue";
src: url("fonts/HelveticaNeue.otf);
}
h1{
font-family: Calibri;
letter-spacing: 6px;
}
p{
font-family: Calibri;
letter-spacing: 1px;
}
Add a simple font-face
#font-face {
font-family: 'Typogrotesk'; /*a name to be used later*/
src: url('TheURLToTheFontFile'); /*URL to font*/
}
then use it from css, html and javascript like this
This is for css
.example {
font-family: 'Typogrotesk';
}
The best way that i use for all my custom font is to generate the neccessary code for my font using this fontsquirrel
You need url that directed to the font, and helvetica neue is paid font. Use web safe font font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif; is easiest way to load helvetica

#font-face won't work. how do I do this properly?

So I have this custom font and it won't work. Please help.
#font-face{
font-family: Anton;
src: url('../../assets/fonts/Anton-Regular.ttf')format('truetype');
}
.home-content-right h1{
font-size: 60px;
font-style: 'Anton',sans-serif;
}
#font-face {
font-family: myFont;
src: url(fonts/Akrobat-Bold.otf);
}
.h1{
font-family: "myFont";
}
For example, I put .otf font file in folder fonts, that works without problem. You will just change name of your font and source path.
A couple things could be happening.
First, your h1 tag is using font-style instead of font, so:
#font-face {
font-family: Anton;
src: url('../../assets/fonts/Anton-Regular.ttf')format('truetype');
}
.home-content-right h1{
font: 'Anton',sans-serif;
font-size: 60px;
}
i.e. font rather than font-style on the h1.
Also, it looks like its possible you are using Rails or some other framework based on the folder structure you are using. If so, its possible that the framework is digesting your asset (i.e. fingerprinting it so its Anton-Regular.ttf-02987910hsa or something like that in case it changes so your browser doesn't cache it incorrectly. If you are using Rails, you'll need to use asset-url('URL') in order to get the most recently fingerprinted asset.

Google Font #import + #font-face?

I'm trying to import fonts with Google Fonts with #import and #font-face, in my CSS. I used to only use #font-face with downloaded fonts, but since it takes time to load, I preferred to use the Google Fonts method.
I didn't wanted the "bold" version of Roboto as the "bold" font in my website, so I used #font-face. However, I'm not sure of the way to use it. Is this correct to use #import and #font-face like this?
#import url('https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto:400,400i,500,500i');
#font-face
{
font-family: Roboto;
src: url("https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto:400");
}
#font-face
{
font-family: Roboto;
font-weight: bold;
src: url("https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto:500");
}
#font-face
{
font-family: Roboto;
font-style: italic;
src: url("https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto:400i");
}
#font-face
{
font-family: Roboto;
font-weight: bold;
font-style: italic;
src: url("https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto:500i");
}
I've the feeling I'm importing the fonts twice... but it doesn't even work! (The page displays the default browser font)
Thank you for reading and taking time to help me.
you can use like this in your stylesheet
#import url('https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto:400,400i,500,500i');
h2{
font-family:Roboto;
}
#font-face make sense when you loading font from files on your server. If you importing from google, use only import and write right properties to elements you want.
#import url('https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto:400,400i,500,500i');
h2 {
font-family:Roboto;
font-weight: 500;
}
