Question

I am using a font on my website which is not install on my shared web server.

But now font is taking too much time to load on web server.

Following is the css that I am using.

CSS

@font-face { 
 font-family: "PT Sans"; 
 src: url(http://mysite.com/font/PTS55F.ttf); 
}

body{ font-family: "PT Sans"; }

Is there any other alternative to this, so the font will not take much time.

Also what to do to make font look smooth ?

Answer 1

I would host the font on your own site, right now your code has to go off to another server to get the font. It will be quicker if it is on the same server.

As for smoothing the font, this might help:

As per comments, the font file is too big – check out this:
