Internet Explorer Font Issue

According to Microsoft’s TrueType Specifications, Some font may not work in Internet Explorer . So you need to change the embedding level of a TrueType font.

N.B. Changing the embedding value does not give you a license to distribute the fonts. You should only change this setting if you are the font creator or you have the authority to perform it.

Here is a tutorial on changing the embedding level of a TrueType font.

Requirements: Windows 7 or higher.

Process :

1) Download this tool from here: Download

2) Create a folder and copy all fonts that do not work on Internet Explorer in it.

3) Copy the tool and keep that in the same folder you have just created.

4) Navigate to that directory in the command line

5) Type the following structure in the command prompt.

embed fontname.fonttype

Replace the font name with the file name and font type with the extension, as in the following example.

embed brokenFont.ttf

6) It’s all done! Your font should now work. You need to reupload the fonts in the app. We recommend renaming them before uploading so they do not match the previous uploads.

Following is a video that will show you the process.
