So I've been trying to load my own custom font for a while. I've followed many guides online, as well as actually gotten a few fonts working. But I've seem to noticed that not all fonts are supported, at least after a lot of testing, and I was hoping to find out why.
The current font I'm trying to use Circo (link to font
http://www.dafont.com/circo.font ) Has been impossible for me to load. I've tried all kinds of things from renaming the actual font file, to checking and looking at the actual font name from within the file, but haven't gotten anything to work.
My current setup for loading the font is
So far the only way I've been able to get the font to load correctly is by using an incorrect IE based format (EOT). (I did this by converting the font into all possible font types, and then testing each one. (I used this site to convert it btw
http://www.font2web.com/)
But from what I've read this format shouldn't even work on chrome (which is what MV runs off if I'm not mistaken), and has LOTS of limitations. So I'd rather not use something that just seems to work now without a reason for it too, and instead find a solution. I have no idea if its how fonts are loaded or not, but I'd love to have some insight as to why this isn't working, and if there is a possible fix and or workaround (that doesn't just work when it shouldn't.)
Any help is really appreciated.
