Really you had two issues going on. First was your pathing issue which prevented the rest of us from seeing the problem (unless we had the font installed) and you did get that corrected for creampuff and I was able to verify that the font is now downloading properly with no errors. The second issue as was pointed out is that the font file itself was corrupt. BTW, if you still wanted to use the creampuff font I was able to download a good, non-corrupted, version (in all the supported formats) from here http://www.fonts2u.com/creampuff.font and it includes the @font-face download with a stylesheet containing the necessary @font-face code. I did download your code and was able to get it working locally in all browsers. Here's the @font-face I used with the font files downloaded from the link above: @font-face { font-family:"Creampuff"; src:url("../fonts/CREAMPUF.eot?") format("eot"),url("../fonts/CREAMPUF.woff") format("woff"),url("../fonts/CREAMPUF.ttf") format("truetype"),url("../fonts/CREAMPUF.svg#Creampuff") format("svg"); font-weight:normal; font-style:normal; } Also the error message I received was not because of WP, it was the standard 404 error you get for any resource that the browser tries to download that doesn't exist in that location on the server. In this case you're path was pointing to http://www.e7flux.com/e7flux2012/css/fonts/creampuff.ttf which clearly the font file did not reside at that location, and as I've said you've fixed that piece. It's always a good idea to open up the developer tools in either chrome/safari/ie/firefox and make sure the resources your html is requesting don't throw 404 errors due to improper paths. I went ahead and took some screenshots of the SOF project you referenced as "working" so you could see what I'm seeing with that project. Again I downloaded a good copy of "Little Days" font from the same site I got creampuff from and I downloaded your code locally so you can see the difference between "Little Days" not working and it working. Here is what I see in Chrome 16 for your SOF site: Top half of page: http://www.flickr.com/photos/meenfrmr/6641808481/in/photostream/ Bottom half of page: http://www.flickr.com/photos/meenfrmr/6641808435/in/photostream/ Here's what your site looks like on my local desktop (local code) with "Little Days" working: Top half of page: http://www.flickr.com/photos/meenfrmr/6641808569/in/photostream/ Bottom half of window: http://www.flickr.com/photos/meenfrmr/6641808525/in/photostream/ -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Jason Arnold http://www.jasonarnold.net ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [css-d@lists.css-discuss.org] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
