    Adding Fonts on Azure Umbraco WebApp

    My apologies if this is a FAQ post, however I am new to Umbraco and was so far not able to find an answer to my question neither on Google and nor on this forums.

    We are using Umbraco deployed as a WebApp on Azure, which installs Umbraco version 7.3.4.

    The designer wants to use 5 different fonts on the webpage, which are not default webfonts and thus cannot be used via a fonts.googleapis.com link.

    Adding the fonts in Umbraco (for example in the scripts or stylesheets) directory seems not possible via the Umbraco-web-interface. As this interface lacks an import function for remote files into these directories.

    How do I add the fonts to the Umbraco filesystem in order to use them?

    Hi Serge,

    In the Azure management portal on your web app there is a setting to get FTP credentials for the web app. I think it is somewhere where you can get the publishing settings

    With this you can upload the fonts were you want ?

    How did you get your Umbraco application on Azure ? Maybe you can make it part of this deployment process.

    Hi Dave,

    Thanks for putting me into the right direction.

    I was searching in the Umbraco management site to do this. Via a FTP to Azure the fonts were copied quickly into the Umbraco wwwroot.

    When creating the Web app Azure gives you the option to create an empty one or a vendor specific one - Umbraco being among them. This way Azure helps you through the various wizardsto setup the SQL database , making installing a web- and database-server very easy and taking only minutes.

    Best regards, Serge

    Glad to hear you could solve it. Don't forget to mark the post as a solution so others can find the answer as well.
