Installing personnal fonts

Post by ndubau »

Hello
I downloaded your component and plugin. I have personal fonts in ttf and eot and my questions are :
1) can I install them without packaging ?
2) can I create a package by customizing the xml file of your sample pachages ?
3) are they available as arial, helvetica... etc without doing other things after ?
Thanks
Noël

Edit : 1 and 2 are solved : I succeeded in customising one of your sample fonts xml file and uploaded mine.
I use template Protostar : what must I do now to use my font in article

Hello,
Finally I succeeded in instaaling 2 personnals fonts (Komika and Bahamas).
You'll understand easily my problem now by looking at the screencopy http://ndubau.free.fr/tempo/fonts_phoca.png :
What I need is to have only the title of the article "bienvenue sur le site de l'AD-PEP83" in Komika and the rest of the page in Bahamas (it's now in Arial).
And I don't find how to do that ! Hope in your help
Thanks
Noël

Hello,
I've done some progress since that morning but a new problem occurs :
I did my packages with both eot and ttf files and uploaded with success http://ndubau.free.fr/tempo/package_phocafont.png; I was just surprised to see only TT font installed http://ndubau.free.fr/tempo/font_installed.png, but as I was on my mac I thought it was normal !
I defined one font for body and one for H1 and it worked fine.
Opening the site under windows and IE it was no good ! Sometimes the tittle appears in Komika, the bahamas is never applied ? In the control panel the fonts never show the eot version...
Hope in your help !

Hi,

1) no, the should be packaged, so the files will be moved to right destination
2) yes, just copy the installation package of another file and edit it
3) I don't know which licence the arial has, so this is why the font is not included

IE problems - mostly IE browsers need to have eot files (must be added to ttf or otf), see other fonts which you can download on this server, there are some examples with eot files which should work in IE :idea:
