@Font-face not working on IOS


So I am working on a WordPress website and on each page I have an H1 tag for the title of that page. I am using a special font using @font-face and it works great on windows in every browser, but when I switch over to a mac it won't display the h1 tag its just white space. I have tested this in safari and chrome on multiple mac's and its not working on any of them. If I change the font to let say Arial it works great, if I setup to have a fall back font it does not work. If I change the h1,h2,h3 tags to use NorthBergen-Light it works great, its just the NorthBergen that doesn't work and the code for both of them is the exact same. In my research I have found that some people say they have had success when they remove all of the quotes but when I do that it just breaks everything. I can't figure out why NorthBergen-Light works great but NorthBergen does not.

        @font-face {

            font-family: 'NorthBergen';

            font-style: normal;

            src: url('//www.mywebsite.com/op/wp-content/uploads/useanyfont/141009064915ufonts.com_northbergen-regular.eot');

            src: local('NorthBergen'), url('//www.mywebsite.com/op/wp-content/uploads/useanyfont/141009064915ufonts.com_northbergen-regular.eot') format('embedded-opentype'), url('//www.mywebsite.com/op/wp-content/uploads/useanyfont/141009064915ufonts.com_northbergen-regular.woff') format('woff');

        }

                @font-face {

            font-family: 'NorthBergen-Light';

            font-style: normal;

            src: url('//www.mywebsite.com/op/wp-content/uploads/useanyfont/141009083525ufonts.com_northbergen-light-opentype.eot');

            src: local('NorthBergen-Light'), url('//www.mywebsite.com/op/wp-content/uploads/useanyfont/141009083525ufonts.com_northbergen-light-opentype.eot') format('embedded-opentype'), url('//www.mywebsite.com/op/wp-content/uploads/useanyfont/141009083525ufonts.com_northbergen-light-opentype.woff') format('woff');

        }

                    .services .services-inside .services-title{

                font-family: 'NorthBergen' !important;

            }

                    h1, h2, h3{

                font-family: 'NorthBergen', 'Times New Roman', 'Times', 'serif' !important;

            }

                    footer.main-footer .widget .widget-title{

                font-family: 'NorthBergen-Light' !important;

            }

                    h5, h6, p, blockquote, li, a, .main-container, h4.widget-title, .widget-title{

                font-family: 'NorthBergen-Light' !important;

            }

So I got it to work by using fontsquirrel and taking all the files and putting them in my FTP and changing the css file to look like.

@font-face {

            font-family: 'NorthBergen';
            font-style: normal;

            src: url('ufonts.com_northbergen-regular-opentype-webfont.eot');
            src: url('ufonts.com_northbergen-regular-opentype-webfont.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'),
             url('ufonts.com_northbergen-regular-opentype-webfont.woff2') format('woff2'),
             url('ufonts.com_northbergen-regular-opentype-webfont.woff') format('woff'),
             url('ufonts.com_northbergen-regular-opentype-webfont.ttf') format('truetype'),
             url('ufonts.com_northbergen-regular-opentype-webfont.svg#northbergenregular') format('svg');

        }

Solution

  • Dont know anything about Wordpress, but you might need some conversion of font for all browsers:

    @font-face {
    font-family: 'Min_font';
        src: url('../fonts/Min_font/Min_font.eot') format('embedded-opentype'); /* IE9 + later */
        src: url('../fonts/Min_font/Min_font.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'), /* IE6 to IE8  */
             url('../fonts/Min_font/Min_font.woff') format('woff'),  /* Newer browsers */
             url('../fonts/Min_font/Min_font.ttf') format('truetype'), /* Safari og iOS, Chrome, Android, Firefox and Opera except Opera Mini  */
             url('../fonts/Min_font/Min_font.svg#Min_font + regular, italic, bold) format('svg'); /*IE og iOS earlier than version 5*/
    }
