How to Use Embedded Fonts for Your HTML5 and CSS3 Based Web Pages
Although
an HTML5 web developer can suggest any font for a web page, the font
files are traditionally a client-level asset. If the client doesn't have
the font installed, she won't see it. Fortunately, CSS3 supports a
sensible solution for providing downloadable fonts.
The style does not work like most CSS elements. It doesn't apply markup to some part of the page. Instead, it defines a new CSS value that can be used in other markup. Specifically, it allows you to place a font file on your server and define a font family using that font.
It's possible to supply multiple src attributes. This way, you can include both an EOT and OTF version of a font so that it will work on a wide variety of browsers.
When you use this technique, you need to have a copy of the font file locally. It should be in the same directory as your web page. When you begin hosting on a web server, you'll want to move your font file to the server along with all the other resources your web page needs. Just because you can include a font doesn't mean you should. Think carefully about readability.
Also, be respectful of intellectual property. Fortunately there are many excellent free open-source fonts available. Begin by looking at Open Font Library. Google Fonts is another great resource for free fonts. With the Google Font tool, you can select a font embedded on Google's servers, and you can copy code that makes the font available without downloading.

@font-face { font-family: "Miama"; src: url("Miama.otf"); }The font-family attribute indicates the name you will be giving this font in the rest of your CSS code. Typically it is similar to the font file name. The font-family attribute is the URL of the actual font file as it is found on the server. After a font-face has been defined, it can be used in an ordinary attribute in the rest of your CSS code:
h1 { font-family: Miama; }Here's the code for the custom font example:
<!DOCTYPE html> <head> <title>EmbeddedFont</title> <style type = "text/css"> @font-face { font-family: "Miama"; src: url("Miama.otf"); } @font-face { font-family: "spray"; src: url("ideoma_SPRAY.otf"); } h1 { font-family: Miama; font-size: 300%; } h2 { font-family: spray; } </style> </head> <body> <h1>Embedded Font Demo</h1> <h2>Here's another custom font</h2> </body> </html>Although all modern browsers support the @font-face feature, the actual file types supported vary from browser to browser. Here are the primary font types:
- TTF: The standard TrueType format is well-supported, but not by all browsers. Many open-source fonts are available in this format.
- OTF: This is similar to TTF, but is a truly open standard, so it is preferred by those who are interested in open standards. It is supported by most browsers except IE.
- WOFF: WOFF is a proposed standard format currently supported by Firefox. Microsoft has hinted at supporting this format in IE.
- EOT: This is Microsoft's proprietary embedded font format. It only works in IE, but to be fair, Microsoft has had embedded font support for many years.
