In your instructions above font files are in /css folder, but your text-graublau-sans-web.css requires them to be in the type folder: for example url("type/GraublauWeb.otf") should be url("GraublauWeb.otf") for that instruction to work correctly out-of-the-box. Imran, imho easiest fix is to create a subfolder called type into the css folder and copy font files there. That should fix your problem.

Hi Imran, Opera only supports @font-face at version 10 (and even then, there are some problems).

Which example are you working on that doesn’t work in any browser? Is there a link you can share?

Great, Morten. I’m not quite familiar with compression, but I know it’s a very important issue for some folks. Knowing about a specific case like this will help. Thank you.

Dustin, Jay: Thanks!

Thank you for this simple little example.

I played around a little with it, and discovered that at least Safari 4 doesn’t understand Content-Encoding: x-gzip on the OTF fonts, so if you use mod_gzip make sure it doesn’t try and serve the fonts compressed.

Incredible. Thankfully I’m on Safari 4 which supports the future.
