I have started a zen cart custom theme using the default theme. Now I hosted the site in my Test Link
In that site I have used the default theme for creating a custom theme. but I changed the theme as per the requirements. Now problem is that the fonts used in the site not working. I used the font creator site to create font and then put it in my template
The path to the fonts directory
~Rootdirectory/includes/templates/dvd_shop/fonts/
and use the font in the css file
~Rootdirectory/includes/templates/dvd_shop/css/stylesheet.css
but now I got the forbidden message in my firebug. So I don't know where to use the fonts in the custom template.
As I said in comments I had a similar issue and have managed to solve it, you need to edit the .htaccess file in the includes folder as well as set correct permissions - see my question and answer here: @fontface - 403-forbidden error in zen cart
