Hi,

I need some tips how to integrate Google web fonts http://www.google.com/webfonts#HomePlace:home into my Joomla.

I try to do as google says but every time something was wrong.

Also tried couple of plugins, like Pocha..., still nothing.

I am using JoomFish for 2 languages, one of them is Cyrillic and second is Latin with "ć, č, ž, š" characters.

Thanks.

If the problem is that the google font is working just not for ALL the characters then you should check that the google fonts you use actually support those characters

You can either use one of the many extensions available (http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions ... typography) to help you OR


1. Go to http://www.google.com/webfonts and select font that you like.

2. Click Quick Use link in the font's box. Select styles (bold, italic) and character sets (latin, cyrillic) that you need. More options selected make the font's package bigger and slower for downloading. Make sure you selected only the options that you really need.

3. On the same page, you will find a code snippet that you should paste in the head section of your webpage (between <head> and </head>) where you'd like to use the font. If you need it for a Joomla template, you should paste the code in template's index.php file in the head section.

4.You can now use the font in your CSS stylesheets as if it was a regular font

hello brian!
I think its not index.php in the template.Its index.html.Please search index.html and paste the google link in between head tags. Head tags must be added by you in index.html page.This will be occured mostly in case of jat3 templates.

It would be a miracle if it worked by using the index.html as they are not used by joomla but are there for a security reason to prevent directory listing.

You probably didn't look in the right place .. my index.php has HTML tags .. including the HEAD tag .. version 2.5.6 .... the index.html files are purely security, nothing more ..

Not sure which HTML files you added to, but if you have that font on your system, in the windows/fonts folder, then remove it and see if you can still see the font on the webpage .. sounds more like you are seeing it because the font actually exists on your computer, in a font folder or system folder....removal of the font from that folder (temporarily) is a common test to see if you can actually see the font via the website or if it is from your system...
