I squeeeed quite a lot when I heard that webfont support was now available in the wizard.
However, I can't figure out how to use it. I think that I'm doing something wrong with DW, but it may be that I'm doing something wrong more generally - I'm new to this.

So I've used FontSquirrel's excellent converter to produce versions of the font in all the various formats, and I've hosted them all at http://www.firecloud.org.uk/07509_centaur-webfont.extension.

I've created a file at http://www.firecloud.org.uk/centaur.css, which contains:
@font-face {
    font-family: 'Centaur';
    src: url('http://www.firecloud.org.uk/07509_centaur-webfont.eot');
    src: url('http://www.firecloud.org.uk/07509_centaur-webfont.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'),
         url('http://www.firecloud.org.uk/07509_centaur-webfont.woff') format('woff'),
         url('http://www.firecloud.org.uk/07509_centaur-webfont.ttf') format('truetype'),
         url('http://www.firecloud.org.uk/07509_centaur-webfont.svg#centaurregular') format('svg');
    font-weight: normal;
    font-style: normal;

}
In the Dreamwidth Customize wizard, I have put the font to use as "Centaur,Times New Roman,serif" in a number of fields, and I have put "http://www.firecloud.org.uk/centaur.css" as the "Embedded fonts stylesheet URL ".

And yet, I'm still seeing this text display in Times New Roman.

Help! What am I missing?

Thanks :-)
