i want to add external font "Droid Serif" and i put the fontface in the foundation.css file.
here is the code
#font-face{ font-family: 'MyWebFont';
src: url('../font/DroidSerif-Bold-webfont.eot');
src: url('../font/droid-bold/DroidSerif-Bold-webfont.eot?iefix') format('eot'),
url('../font/droid-bold/DroidSerif-Bold-webfont.woff') format('woff'),
url('../font/droid-bold/DroidSerif-Bold-webfont.ttf') format('truetype'),
url('../font/DroidSerif-Bold-webfont.svg#webfont') format('svg'); }
now, i call the name in body
body {
background: #edebda;
color: #222222;
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
font-family: "MyWebFont","Helvetica Neue", "Helvetica", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;
font-weight: normal;
font-style: normal;
line-height: 1;
position: relative;
cursor: default; }
but it wont take the font ? why is it so? I 've checked the path of the file and i am sure its right. is there anything wrong with the way foundation works?
i really need your help ppl !
I've done it with Zurb Foundation without problems. Your font-face code seems good to me...
Have you tried to apply these font properties to a single item (not to body)? For example, enclose them into a class name (.apply-font) and apply it to a div or a span. Does it works? If not, maybe there's a path problem to your font files. But you're sure that's not the problem...
If it works, it could be that your body definition goes before the body one created by zurb when it compiles the file _globals.scss, and the second one overrides the first. To test if that's the problem, you could use the !important declaration to your font-family. This is the way to say that it doesn't matter where it's declared, this is the one to use.

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.
Hi I know that there are some topic regarding this matter but rest assured i have been looking for solution in those topics but i could not find any solution.
I have tried my best but it still won't get fixed.
So this is my CSS font:
#font-face {
font-family: 'quicksandregular';
src: url('font/quiksand2/quicksand-regular-webfont.eot');
src: url('font/quiksand2/quicksand-regular-webfont.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'),
url('font/quiksand2/quicksand-regular-webfont.woff2') format('woff2'),
url('font/quiksand2/quicksand-regular-webfont.woff') format('woff'),
url('font/quiksand2/quicksand-regular-webfont.ttf') format('truetype'),
url('font/quiksand2/quicksand-regular-webfont.svg#quicksandregular') format('svg');
font-weight: normal;
font-style: normal;
}
and here is the body css
body {
font-size: 12px;
padding: 0;
height: 100%;
width: 100%;
margin: 0;
background-color: #f7f2e2;
font-family: Quicksand;
letter-spacing: -1px;
overflow: auto;
position: absolute;
}
somehow the font is still not show up in my site. It did show up when i have Quicksand font installed in my PC but as soon as i removed the quicksand font, the font switched into a default serif font. This is not what i really wanted since i want other PC to be able to show the font that i used, which is quicksand.
I did check up the font folder is exactly the same in my root folder. By my understanding, the quicksand font should be showing.
The question is, what is my mistake? I would be happy if someone responded to me and reply within 1 day maximum.
You will have to put '' and your font inside that. As this is how it is being generated in the css.
Example:
font-family: 'quicksandregular';
Hope this works.
Everthing is fine but you need to change is the css that is applied
and here is the body css
body {
font-size: 12px;
padding: 0;
height: 100%;
width: 100%;
margin:0;
background-color: #f7f2e2;
font-family: quicksandregular;
letter-spacing: -1px;
overflow:auto;
position:absolute;
}
Just make the following change to your code it will work.
font-family: quicksandregular;
Inside your #font-face, you have declared the font-family property to quicksandregular. Hence, you have to use font-family: 'quicksandregular' or font-family: quicksandregular in your CSS code.
Also, a good thing to do would be to rename the #font-face to QuickSand, and have multiple QuickSand font-faces with different font-weight properties, because this will allow you to use it in structures like this:
.myRegularText {
font-family: 'QuickSand';
font-weight: regular;
}
.myBoldText {
font-family: 'QuickSand';
font-weight: bold;
}
I can't know weather you have a problem with file path or not, since I cannot see the structure of your server's directory, but we assume the following structure:
<root> /
style/
main.css
font/
quicksand2/
<font-files>
In this case, you will have to use
#font-face {
font-family: 'QuickSand';
src: url('/font/quicksand2/<file-name>');
// ..
}
or
#font-face {
// ...
src: url('../font/<file-name>');
// ...
}
Hope that helps.
I'm trying to load local fonts with custom names. Everything works perfectly in all browsers except IE, as always. The font isn't being rendered in bold or italic. I can't seem to understand what I'm doing wrong here.
Here is a demo:
http://jsfiddle.net/maitreyjukar/5ga5k2oa/
I am loading the font using the following CSS
#font-face {
font-family: k_Arial;
src: local("Arial"),
local("Helvetica"),
local("sans-serif");
font-weight: normal;
font-style: normal;
}
for all combinations of font-weight and font-style.
This is not only not an IE-specific issue it doesn't work on other browsers like Firefox.
Just write one font-face Rule istead of four like this:
#font-face {
font-family: k_Arial;
src: local("Arial"),
local("Helvetica"),
local("sans-serif");
}
Here is My Solution: http://jsfiddle.net/deepak__yadav/1eed9na5 i hope you will understand what you did wrong.
It's not an IE-specific issue - I'm on Firefox 38 and it doesn't work here either...
local sources are usually used to search on a user's machine before pointing to a URL, in order to speed things up.
However, you seem want to solely use locally installed fonts with a certain fallback order.
To achieve this, you could simply do the following:
body {
font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
}
.bold {
font-weight: bold;
}
.italic {
font-style: italic;
}
Bonus tip: Combine the bold and italic classes and you don't need an additional class bolditalic.
JS-Fiddle
you can define your font like below example, this will work in all the browsers.
#font-face {
font-family: 'ProximaNovaRegular';
src: url('../fonts/ProximaNovaRegular.eot');
src: url('../fonts/ProximaNovaRegular.eot') format('embedded-opentype'),
url('../fonts/ProximaNovaRegular.woff2') format('woff2'),
url('../fonts/ProximaNovaRegular.woff') format('woff'),
url('../fonts/ProximaNovaRegular.ttf') format('truetype'),
url('../fonts/ProximaNovaRegular.svg#ProximaNovaRegular') format('svg');
}
I'm working on a style to change font to a custom one for a project. the code seems to work in the editing window but real sites doesn't seem to work. I think its falling back on a system default. How do I get around this? I'm using chrome if that matters.
#font-face {
font-family: 'wantedfont';
font-style: normal;
font-weight: 400;
src: local('wantedfont'),url(http://hazel-is.me/times_new_ancient.ttf);
}
*{
cursor: url(http://puu.sh/hoJq2/46859bf607.gif), progress;
font-family: wantedfont !important;
}
you can use the "bulletproof" syntax and add a ☺︎ as local font name to make sure it does not load a local font. more importantly add format declaration, full rule should be as such:
#font-face {
font-family: 'Graublau Web';
src: url('GraublauWeb.eot');
src: local('☺︎'),
url("GraublauWeb.woff") format("woff"),
url("GraublauWeb.otf") format("opentype"),
url("GraublauWeb.svg#grablau") format("svg");
}
im working on a license plate previewing script
everything is going great, except for the fact that in this custom font, numbers are larger than letters despite them having the same font-size declared.
here is a screenshot:
the font is: http://www.dafont.com/mandatory.font
i used the font squirrel generator to get the files and css for it.
heres the css:
body {
margin: 0px 0px;
background: #3AB54B;
color: #000000;
font-family: 'mandatoryregular';
text-align: center;
font-size: 150px;
}
#font-face {
font-family: 'mandatoryregular';
src: url('fonts/mandator-webfont.eot');
src: url('fonts/mandator-webfont.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'),
url('fonts/mandator-webfont.woff') format('woff'),
url('fonts/mandator-webfont.ttf') format('truetype'),
url('fonts/mandator-webfont.svg#mandatoryregular') format('svg');
font-weight: normal;
font-style: normal;
}
my question is, how can i fix this? im also using php. the only way ive thought of so far is to use php to go through each character and if it is numeric, have it add a span around the character then declare a different font size in the css.
but is there a better/easier way?
