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 :-)

Yeah, DW's cssproxy caches the cleaned content for 5 minutes ( unless you have a no-caching specified in the http headers, so next time you want to mess with things, set that first and wait for it to expire! ).

Fair enough, that would make sense :-)
