Overview

@font-your-face provides an administrative interface for browsing and applying web fonts (using CSS @font-face, supported in all popular browsers) from a variety of sources.

Features

  • A font browsing interface allows selection of fonts from from several providers:
    • Typekit.com
    • Google Fonts
    • Font Squirrel
    • Fontdeck
    • Fonts.com
  • Fonts are automatically loaded on site simply by clicking "Enable"; no need to create font files, write CSS, add JS, nor figure out different methods for every font provider.
  • Clear indication of license restrictions on provided fonts.
  • Fonts can be applied to specific text on the site either by using the provided font-family identifier in theme CSS, or by typing a CSS selector directly in the @font-your-face interface.
  • The @font-your-face code is designed for re-use, so other modules can both supply and read active and available font information.
  • Fonts can be exported/imported using Features (7.x-2.x only)
  • You can also import your own local fonts in the formats EOT, TTF, WOFF and SVG.

Requirements

  • The main @font-your-face module has no requirements beyond Drupal core and a bit more memory.
  • The UI module relies on Views for the browsing interface.
  • The Typekit module requires a server that can securely (SSL) connect to Typekit.com.

Development Plans

Beyond bug fixes, the next (7.x-2.4) release will focus on the following issues:

  • #896024: Wysiwyg Integration
  • #1544156: [META] Simplify/reduce which functionality is available on which screens

Get Involved

If you are interested in helping with @font-your-face, here are some good ways to get started:

  • Spread the word. Too many people don't realize what we can do with web fonts in Drupal. Share with your local community.
  • Contribute documentation. If you've successfully used the module, you can help explain it to others.
  • Port a patch. This code is already written, and just needs to be edited slightly (maybe not at all) to work in a different version of Drupal.
  • Take over a submodule. Each individual web font provider in @font-your-face has a dedicated submodule. These submodules could be moved to separate projects, and generally require very little maintenance work.
  • Become a co-maintainer. While @font-your-face is actively maintained, it would be great to have more people involved, especially people with a demonstrated ability to do some of the above.
