I tested a free font with Chrome and it works but cannot get it to work in a WebView view. I converted it to a woff file and still am having the problem. The string that holds the HTML was checked to make sure that the code in both matched with the exception of how the custom font was brought in. The background file loaded just fine.
My code
Can anyone see what I am doing wrong or is it that that font just won't work with b4a Webview?
HTML:
<html>
<head>
<style type='text/css'>
@font-face {
font-family: MyFont;
src: url('OldNewspaperTypes.ttf')
}
body {
font-family: MyFont;
}
</style>
</head>
<body background='ViewArmy.png'>
Hello all
</body>
</html>
My code
B4X:
sbHTML.Append("<html>").Append(CRLF)
sbHTML.Append("<head>").Append(CRLF)
sbHTML.Append("<style type='text/css'>").Append(CRLF)
sbHTML.Append("@font-face {").Append(CRLF)
sbHTML.Append("font-family: MyFont;").append(CRLF)
sbHTML.Append("src: url('" & WebViewAssetFile("OldNewspaperTypes.ttf") & "'").Append(CRLF)
sbHTML.Append("}").Append(CRLF)
sbHTML.Append("body {").Append(CRLF)
sbHTML.Append("font-family: MyFont;").Append(CRLF)
sbHTML.Append("}").Append(CRLF)
sbHTML.Append("</style>").Append(CRLF)
sbHTML.Append("</head>").Append(CRLF)
sbHTML.Append("<body background='" & WebViewAssetFile("ViewArmy.png") & "'>").Append(CRLF)
...
sbHTMLUnion.Append("Hello all").Append(CRLF)
sbHTMLUnion.Insert(0, sbHTML)
sbHTMLUnion.Append("</body>").Append(CRLF)
sbHTMLUnion.Append("</html>")
strHTMLUnion = sbHTMLUnion.ToString
wbvViewArmy.LoadHtml(strHTMLUnion)
