I am trying to get a font to render within a file and it is giving me the usual error of
Resource interpreted as Font but transferred with MIME type text/html:
But the HTML file on show is our 404.aspx file, I tried the usual of installing the applications in the web.config and then eventually into IIS itself as:
.woff application/font-woff
.ttf application/font-ttf
.eot application/vnd.ms-fontobject
.otf application/font-otf
.svg image/svg+xml
I cannot understand where I am going wrong. the files are stored in a folder called fonts that is in the base directory for the site and I have the style within my aspx file as
@font-face {
font-family: 'segoe_printregular';
src: url('/fonts/segoepr-webfont.eot'); /* IE9 Compat Modes */
src: url('/fonts/segoepr-webfont.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'), /* IE6-IE8 */
url('/fonts/segoepr-webfont.woff') format('woff'), /* Modern Browsers */
url('/fonts/segoepr-webfont.ttf') format('truetype'), /* Safari, Android, iOS */
url('/fonts/segoepr-webfont.svg#svgFontName') format('svg'); /* Legacy iOS */
font-weight: normal;
font-style: normal;
}
and the stylesheet.css within the fonts folder as:
@font-face {
font-family: 'segoe_printregular';
src: url('/segoepr-webfont.eot'); /* IE9 Compat Modes */
src: url('/segoepr-webfont.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'), /* IE6-IE8 */
url('/segoepr-webfont.woff') format('woff'), /* Modern Browsers */
url('/segoepr-webfont.ttf') format('truetype'), /* Safari, Android, iOS */
url('/segoepr-webfont.svg#svgFontName') format('svg'); /* Legacy iOS */
font-weight: normal;
font-style: normal;
}
I have tried the file paths as /fonts/ and just fonts/ to no avail. But I cannot get the file to bnot 404. Someone suggested restarting the server but that did not achieve anything either.
Is there anything I am missing? Or some mistake that I have made?
If it helps I also tried this in the web.config
<staticContent>
<remove fileExtension=".woff" />
<mimeMap fileExtension=".woff" mimeType="application/font-woff" />
<remove fileExtension=".ttf" />
<mimeMap fileExtension=".ttf" mimeType="application/font-ttf" />
<remove fileExtension=".eot" />
<mimeMap fileExtension=".eot" mimeType="application/vnd.ms-fontobject" />
<remove fileExtension=".otf" />
<mimeMap fileExtension=".otf" mimeType="application/font-otf" />
<remove fileExtension=".svg" />
<mimeMap fileExtension=".svg" mimeType="image/svg+xml" />
</staticContent>
