I have never played around with fonts like this before. My only reference
was/is fonts.tiddlyspace.com.
Good point about collecting fonts in one stylesheet and embedding it into
the StyleSheet!!! (I actually forgot that...)
I *think* that the .ttf refers to truetypefont - therefore (I *think*)
you'll have to refer to it as format('truetype'); in your fontFaceStyleSheet
- and I *think* that you can specify whatever familyname you wish, as long
as you adhere to it when using the style-enclosure
@@font-family:'SomeName';font-size:2.5em;SomeText@@
If the font isn't rendered as it should it *might* have something to do with
"missing layers" (more font descriptors)???(I'm out where I can't swim here
- please help if you know what I'm talking about - I actually don't...)
Have a look at StyleSheetLeagueGothic from fonts.tiddlyspace.com It
appearently uses three different formats:
ttf (truetype)
woff (don't know that one..) and
svg (scalable vector graphic) to render one font "League_Gothic.eot" (don't
know *.eot ...) and the family is called: LeagueGothicRegular - used like
this: @@font-family:'LeagueGothicRegular';font-size:3em;Some text@@
I think we need someone like @bengillies to step in and explain whats going
on - I don't have a clue :-(
The tiddlyWeb group might be a better place to ask this question. @fonts is
a tiddlyspace app..
I hope you'll find a solution !
Cheers Måns mårtensson
