Use multiple custom fonts using @font-face?

You simply add another @font-face rule:

@font-face {
    font-family: CustomFont;
    src: url('CustomFont.ttf');
}

@font-face {
    font-family: CustomFont2;
    src: url('CustomFont2.ttf');
}

If your second font still doesn't work, make sure you're spelling its typeface name and its file name correctly, your browser caches are behaving, your OS isn't messing around with a font of the same name, etc.


If you are having a problem with the font working I have also had this in the past and the issue I found was down to the font-family: name. This had to match what font name was actually given.

The easiest way I found to find this out was to install the font and see what display name is given.

For example, I was using Gill Sans on one project, but the actual font was called Gill Sans MT. Spacing and capitlisation was also important to get right.

Hope that helps.


I use this method in my css file

@font-face {
  font-family: FontName1;
  src: url("fontname1.eot"); /* IE */
  src: local('FontName1'), url('fontname1.ttf') format('truetype'); /* others */
}
@font-face {
  font-family: FontName2;
  src: url("fontname1.eot"); /* IE */
  src: local('FontName2'), url('fontname2.ttf') format('truetype'); /* others */
}
@font-face {
  font-family: FontName3;
  src: url("fontname1.eot"); /* IE */
  src: local('FontName3'), url('fontname3.ttf') format('truetype'); /* others */
}

Check out fontsquirrel. They have a web font generator, which will also spit out a suitable stylesheet for your font (look for "@font-face kit"). This stylesheet can be included in your own, or you can use it as a template.
