How to Install a Custom Font on an HTML Site

How do I install a custom font on an HTML site

Yes, you can use the CSS feature named @font-face.
It has only been officially approved in CSS3, but been proposed and implemented in CSS2 and has been supported in IE for quite a long time.

You declare it in the CSS like this:

 @font-face { font-family: Delicious; src: url('Delicious-Roman.otf'); } 
@font-face { font-family: Delicious; font-weight: bold; src: url('Delicious-Bold.otf');}

Then, you can just reference it like the other standard fonts:

 h3 { font-family: Delicious, sans-serif; }

So, in this case,

<html>
<head>
<style>
@font-face { font-family: JuneBug; src: url('JUNEBUG.TTF'); }
h1 {
font-family: JuneBug
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Hey, June</h1>
</body>
</html>

And you just need to put the JUNEBUG.TFF in the same location as the html file.

I downloaded the font from the dafont.com website:

http://www.dafont.com/junebug.font

How to install custom fonts in css

A special CSS @font-face declaration helps the various browsers select the appropriate font it needs without causing you a bunch of headaches.

@font-face{ 
font-family: 'MyWebFont';
src: url('WebFont.eot');
src: url('WebFont.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'),
url('WebFont.woff') format('woff'),
url('WebFont.ttf') format('truetype'),
url('WebFont.svg#webfont') format('svg');
}

All you have to do is link to the stylesheet in your HTML, like this:

<link rel="stylesheet" href="stylesheet.css" type="text/css" charset="utf-8" />

To take advantage of your new fonts, you must tell your stylesheet to use them. Look at the original @font-face declaration above and find the property called "font-family." The name linked there will be what you use to reference the font. Prepend that webfont name to the font stack in the "font-family" property, inside the selector you want to change. For example:

p { font-family: 'MyWebFont', Arial, sans-serif; }

How to add some non-standard font to a website?

This could be done via CSS:

<style type="text/css">
@font-face {
font-family: "My Custom Font";
src: url(http://www.example.org/mycustomfont.ttf) format("truetype");
}
p.customfont {
font-family: "My Custom Font", Verdana, Tahoma;
}
</style>
<p class="customfont">Hello world!</p>

It is supported for all of the regular browsers if you use TrueType-Fonts (TTF), the Web Open Font Format (WOFF) or Embedded Opentype (EOT).

Using Custom font in HTML/CSS

Make a font face:

@font-face {
font-family: 'Typogrotesk'; /*a name to be used later*/
src: url('TheURLToTheFontFile'); /*URL to font*/
}

Then to use it in your css styling:

.example {
font-family: 'Typogrotesk';
}

How can I use fonts which are install in my system to design a webpage using html css?

Take a look at https://www.pagecloud.com/blog/how-to-add-custom-fonts-to-any-website

If you're trying to upload your font at CSS then write like this:

@font-face {
font-family: "YourFont";
src: url("/fonts/YourFont.woff2") format("woff2"),
url("/fonts/YourFont.woff") format("woff");
}

Adding custom fonts in CSS

Keep fonts in /fonts folder, this will help with clean structure of site down the line. Remember - everything what's in the file is relative to that file - meaning, if you'd put these fonts in /css folder - it would work.

If you want to go back in folder structure just use ../. It's useful if you want to store images for example in /img and not in /css/img.

@font-face{
font-family: league_spartanregular;
src: url('../fonts/leaguespartan-bold-webfont.eot');
src: url('../fonts/leaguespartan-bold-webfont.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'),
url('../fonts/leaguespartan-bold-webfont.woff2') format('woff2'),
url('../fonts/leaguespartan-bold-webfont.ttf') format('truetype'),
url('../fonts/leaguespartan-bold-webfont.svg#league_spartanregular') format('svg');
font-weight: normal;
font-style: normal;
}
