2010-10-05 18:54:00 Alan Bell description http://font.ubuntu.com currently provides the font in source form and in a zip archive of .ttf files. In order to be used as embedded fonts linked in web pages using CSS with @font-face each .ttf needs to be individually served. Microsoft only supports web fonts in its proprietary EOT format. There does not appear to be a packaged tool to convert from TTF to EOT however this code looks like it should do the trick. http://code.google.com/p/ttf2eot/ http://hacks.mozilla.org/2009/06/beautiful-fonts-with-font-face/ http://openfontlibrary.org/wiki/Embedded_OpenType http://openfontlibrary.org/wiki/Web_font_linking_with_@font-face There should be some copy and pasteable text on the home page of http://font.ubuntu.com for web designers to use. Something like this: @font-face { /* Regular */ font-family: "UbuntuNormal"; src: url("http://font.ubuntu.com/Ubuntu-R.otf") format("opentype"); font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-stretch: normal; }@font-face { /* Bold */ font-family: "UbuntuBold"; src: url("http://font.ubuntu.com/Ubuntu-B.ttf") format("opentype");\ font-weight: 700; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-stretch: normal; }@font-face { /* BoldItalic */ font-family: "UbuntuBoldItalic"; src: url("http://font.ubuntu.com/Ubuntu-BI.ttf") format("opentype");\ font-weight: 700; font-style: italic; font-variant: normal; font-stretch: normal; }@font-face { /* Italic */ font-family: "UbuntuItalic"; src: url("http://font.ubuntu.com/Ubuntu-I.ttf") format("opentype");\ font-weight: 400; font-style: italic; font-variant: normal; font-stretch: normal; } Google font directory takes a slightly different approach and dynamically generates a little css stylesheet depending on the browser, e.g. http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Cantarell&subset=latin http://font.ubuntu.com currently provides the font in source form and in a zip archive of .ttf files.
