Django - New fonts?
For the directory structure like so,
-- static |--fonts | |--abc.ttf | |--css |-- main.cssIn the main.css, you should add.
@font-face { font-family: 'abc'; src: local('Abc'), url('../static/fonts/abc.ttf') format("truetype");}You can't use {% static 'filename' %} inside a css file, since it will not be rendered by the django templating engine.
Also, if you want you can add the following in the <head> section of base.html, and it will render a fully qualified path for static assets:
<style> @font-face { font-family: 'abc'; src: local('Abc'), url('{% static 'fonts/abc.ttf' %} format("truetype")'); }</style>Edit: Fixed the use of local and also removed the preference around location of style tag in html.
