I intalled a new font on my website but I cannot get IE8 and IE9 to recognize, I have no knoledge on how the browsers render the fonts, but my css style sheet font declaration is as follows, 

@font-face {     


font-family: VAGRounded;     src: url("../fonts/VAGRoundedW01-Light.eot") /* EOT file for IE */

 src:url("../fonts/VAGRoundedW01-Light.eot?#iefix") format('embedded-opentype');


 }

@font-face {  font-family: VAGRounded;  src: url("../fonts/VAGRoundedW01-Light.TTF") format('truetype'),

url("../fonts/VAGRoundedW01-Light.svg#webfontmvIrHXJB") format('svg');

Much help is appreciated!!

    IE8 and IE9 do not support embedded fonts via the CSS3 scheme without first converting into supported formats (SVG, TT, EOT, etc.). EDIT: IE8 and IE9 requires tweaks to support embedded fonts. See the comments on your question since it’s a duplicate.

    FYI IE10 will be the first IE browser to support the HTML5 standard.

    There are nifty other methods of embedding fonts. The one I recommend is Cufon because it uses VML in older browsers and doesn’t require flash.
