I am having trouble getting my ttf file to load using @font-face. It's just not working properly

Struggling to get @font-face to load properly, despite following Font Squirrel's instructions. Below is my code snippet:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
    <meta charset="UTF-8">
    <title>MineplexStalkers</title>
    <link
            rel="icon"

    />
    <body>
<h2 class="h2mine">
    Welcome to the official MineplexStalkers page for real-time statistics and game analytics.
</h2>

</body>
<style>

@font-face {
    font-family: 'minecraftmedium';
    src: url('9ff01213-7695-4cf6-8627-1a6f0fa2de18_9ff01213-7695-4cf6-8627-1a6f0fa2de18_minecraft_2-webfont.ttf') format('truetype');
    font-weight: normal;
    font-style: normal;

}
#h2{
text-align:left;
padding: 10px;
font-family:minecraftmedium;
}
</style>

In need of assistance as I've been stuck on this issue for quite some time. https://i.sstatic.net/v93tn.png

Answer №1

I am tackling this issue once again, as I am determined to solve it!

Here is a breakdown of reasons why your @font-face may not be functioning properly.

Your focus on ttf files exclusively

Different browsers have varying degrees of support for font file types such as .ttf, .otf, .woff, and .woff2.

To ensure compatibility, you should specify multiple files like so:

@font-face {
    font-family: "font name";
    src: url("font.eot") format("embedded-opentype"),
        url("font.woff") format("woff"),
        url("font.woff2") format("woff2"),
        url("font.ttf") format("truetype");
}

If you lack certain font files, consider converting them using a font converter after obtaining permission from the font owner.

Refer to this general chart for font type support across browsers:

        ttf/otf    woff/woff2    eot 
-------------------------------------
Chrome     ●         ●
Firefox    ●         ●
IE         ○         ●          ●
Opera      ● 
Safari     ●

● = supported ○ = partial support

Ensure you arrange them in the correct sequence:

  • eot
  • woff/woff2
  • ttf/otf

Verify file formats are accurate

Confirm that .ttf files use "truetype" format, .otf files use "otf" format, and check for correct file extensions to avoid compatibility issues.

Double-check syntax accuracy

Review your syntax meticulously and run it through a validator for validation purposes.

Validate file paths are precise

Inspect your console for any 404 errors to verify the correctness of file paths.

In cases where fonts fail to render despite loading, try these steps:

  1. Place all font files in the root directory (same location as homepage)
  2. Create a new file named font.css in the root directory for the @font-face
  3. Import this file using @import "font.css" in your primary stylesheet

It may seem odd, but this workaround often resolves the issue...

Too Long; Didn't Read

  1. Utilize various formats for broad support
  2. Ensure correct format labeling
  3. Validate syntax via validator tool
  4. Confirm accurate file path configurations
