I am dealing with a strange issue here.. It seems that Microsoft Edge browser doesn't load fonts when I use @font-face. I checked all my computers that run Windows 10 & Microsoft Edge.
I checked http://caniuse.com/#search=font%20face
It says that font-face is compatible with Edge so I don't know what's going on. In my example I just have a div and its font parameter.
CSS
@font-face{font-family:'Dosis';font-style:normal;font-weight:200;src:local('Dosis ExtraLight'), local('Dosis-ExtraLight'), url(http://fonts.gstatic.com/s/dosis/v4/RPKDmaFi75RJkvjWaDDb0vesZW2xOQ-xsNqO47m55DA.woff2) format('woff2');}
@font-face{font-family:'Dosis';font-style:normal;font-weight:700;src:local('Dosis Bold'), local('Dosis-Bold'), url(http://fonts.gstatic.com/s/dosis/v4/22aDRG5X9l7obljtz7tihvesZW2xOQ-xsNqO47m55DA.woff2) format('woff2');}
HTML
div {
font-family:'Dosis';
}
Live version
Procedure:
The procedure I followed in order to install all necessary formats was to find which font-weight I needed from each font and then go and download it from Google Fonts. Then using the https://everythingfonts.com/font-face (font face generator) I downloaded all the formats along with the CSS code. Then I incorporated them all into my CSS and HTML.
CSS:
@font-face {
font-family: 'JosefinSansLight';
src: url('/fonts/JosefinSansLight.eot');
src: url('/fonts/JosefinSansLight.eot') format('embedded-opentype'),
url('/fonts/JosefinSansLight.woff2') format('woff2'),
url('/fonts/JosefinSansLight.woff') format('woff'),
url('/fonts/JosefinSansLight.ttf') format('truetype');
}
HTML (excerpt):
.testim{
font-family:'JosefinSansLight', sans-serif;
line-height:normal;
color:#969696;
font-size:1.2em;
}
