Use multiple #font-face rules in CSS - html

Question

How can I use more than #font-face rule in my CSS?
I've inserted this into my stylesheet:
body {
background: #fff url(../images/body-bg-corporate.gif) repeat-x;
padding-bottom: 10px;
font-family: 'GestaRegular', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
}
#font-face {
font-family: 'GestaReFogular';
src: url('gestareg-webfont.eot');
src: local('☺'),
url('gestareg-webfont.woff') format('woff'),
url('gestareg-webfont.ttf') format('truetype'),
url('gestareg-webfont.svg#webfontg8dbVmxj') format('svg');
}
This currently only applies for the whole body of text on the site. But, I would like to specify h1 to use a different font. How can I do this?

Which includes a more descriptive breakdown of the CSS you see below (and explains the tweaks that make it work better on IE6-9).
#font-face {
font-family: 'Bumble Bee';
src: url('bumblebee-webfont.eot');
src: local('☺'),
url('bumblebee-webfont.woff') format('woff'),
url('bumblebee-webfont.ttf') format('truetype'),
url('bumblebee-webfont.svg#webfontg8dbVmxj') format('svg');
}
#font-face {
font-family: 'GestaReFogular';
src: url('gestareg-webfont.eot');
src: local('☺'),
url('gestareg-webfont.woff') format('woff'),
url('gestareg-webfont.ttf') format('truetype'),
url('gestareg-webfont.svg#webfontg8dbVmxj') format('svg');
}
body {
background: #fff url(../images/body-bg-corporate.gif) repeat-x;
padding-bottom: 10px;
font-family: 'GestaRegular', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
}
h1 {
font-family: "Bumble Bee", "Times New Roman", Georgia, Serif;
}
And your follow-up questions:
Q. I would like to use a font such as "Bumble bee," for example. How can I use #font-face to make that font available on the user's
computer?
Note that I don't know what the name of your Bumble Bee font or file is, so adjust accordingly, and that the font-face declaration should precede (come before) your use of it, as I've shown above.
Q. Can I still use the other #font-face typeface "GestaRegular" as well? Can I use both in the same stylesheet?
Just list them together as I've shown in my example. There is no reason you can't declare both. All that #font-face does is instruct the browser to download and make a font-family available. See: http://iliadraznin.com/2009/07/css3-font-face-multiple-weights

#font-face {
font-family: Kaffeesatz;
src: url(YanoneKaffeesatz-Thin.otf);
font-weight: 200;
}
#font-face {
font-family: Kaffeesatz;
src: url(YanoneKaffeesatz-Light.otf);
font-weight: 300;
}
#font-face {
font-family: Kaffeesatz;
src: url(YanoneKaffeesatz-Regular.otf);
font-weight: normal;
}
#font-face {
font-family: Kaffeesatz;
src: url(YanoneKaffeesatz-Bold.otf);
font-weight: bold;
}
h3, h4, h5, h6 {
font-size:2em;
margin:0;
padding:0;
font-family:Kaffeesatz;
font-weight:normal;
}
h6 { font-weight:200; }
h5 { font-weight:300; }
h4 { font-weight:normal; }
h3 { font-weight:bold; }

Multiple variations of a font family can be declared by changing the font-weight and src property of #font-face rule.
/* Regular Weight */
#font-face {
font-family: Montserrat;
src: url("../fonts/Montserrat-Regular.ttf");
}
/* SemiBold (600) Weight */
#font-face {
font-family: Montserrat;
src: url("../fonts/Montserrat-SemiBold.ttf");
font-weight: 600;
}
/* Bold Weight */
#font-face {
font-family: Montserrat;
src: url("../fonts/Montserrat-Bold.ttf");
font-weight: bold;
}
Declared rules can be used by following
/* Regular */
font-family: Montserrat;
/* Semi Bold */
font-family: Montserrat;
font-weght: 600;
/* Bold */
font-family: Montserrat;
font-weight: bold;
