Treehouse Font Free Download
Karla Cassone
The font utilized in the Treehouse TV logo resembles the Kenan & Kel font, designed by Jayde Garrow. This font comes in uppercase letters, numerals, and a few punctuation marks, and can be downloaded for free from the Fonts Used Section.
Now this is not specific to just this lesson using the Nunito font or even Treehouse in general as I get this on other websites : I've had an issue with some fonts displaying incorrectly in both Firefox and Chrome despite developer tools in Chrome & Firebug in Firefox both suggesting the font is applied and loaded correctly.
This is just plain weird as I can imagine how one browser might have a problem with displaying fonts but not two of them... - leads me to suspect it may be OS related (I'm on Win 7)??? Plenty of googling has led me to various issues that may affect one browser or the other but not both - and am not using a proxy server. The font displays fine on my Galaxy S4 using the same wifi connection. Oh, and I've tested Firefox in Safe Mode - same issue...
It turns out that in windows 7 if you go via Control Panel->Performance Information And Tools-> Adjust Visual Effects and select Adjust for best performance it turns off a setting "Smooth Edges of screen fonts"
Tried it via the earlier @font-face utilising workspace I had under the CSS Basics course with the Abolition font used there but no joy alas The A's and other slopes in the letters are jagged and messed up - I'm pretty sure this must be a problem to do with my local system.
As far as I know, you can't change the font size based on what font is being used. There might be some way in JavaScript to tell what font was applied and then apply a font size to that font, but that becomes complicated, and going back to the idea that your website should look as good as possible if it's shown as barebones, if your user had Javascript disabled, than that option would clearly break and we are back to square one.
I think the problem is your font family is not consistent. I googled the fonts and say that Mr Dafoe is a tight, small cursive font, while Trebuchet MS is a nice bold sans-serif font, and your fallback is also sans-serif.
If google decides to drop that font, or move it, or change it's name, or drop their font service all together, than your page will not look right. Don't rely on somebody else's service to make your site look good. It should still look good and function correctly even if all your plug-ins and styling updates break.
I see. I chose to fall back to sans-serif instead of cursive because the default cursive fonts all look crappy (Comic Sans or something similar to it). But I get that the problem comes from mixing font types.
I assume you're not writing a paragraph in this cursive font, just a title or headline or something? You could that text in as an image. The image of text should load very consistently, with the web file and image living on the same server, you're not depending on another outside service or plugin.
I was reading a website about fonts such as px,pt,and em. While reading they stated that all font should have em applied to it instead of px. I'm going to be starting the font section of ccs deep dive soon. I was wondering if it's true about using only em for fonts in css?
It depends on how you want your fonts to act. using em's means that it is relative to the parent element and so is more flexible. where as px etc are a set size no matter what any other values are set as on the page. I would say it is personal choice.
Thanks Daniel I do understand that em is more flexible then a pxs. I recently made my first web-page and right now it's in pixels. I'm going to wait on doing anymore until I learn more about ems because, I want to make sure the site is done right. Gil talked very briefly about ems in the last couple of vids I watched. I notice that the next section of my track is all about fonts so, hopefully Gil will go into more detail about ems
By by default, fonts are set to 1em but that size could be different depending on the font. If a font size is normally 16px, setting the size to 2em will make it 32px. If a font is normally 12px, setting the size to 2em will make it 24px. Setting the px size just makes the font that size.
Ems are good when you need to change the size of boxes and other elements. For example, if you have a box that you want to be the same height as three lines of text, you'd set the height to be 3em and it would always be three lines of text tall regardless of how big the font on this inside is. If you set the size by pixels instead of ems, you might end up making the box too big or small.

Finally, Lia shared this interesting article about the history of fonts. Your favorites, including Arial, Helvetica and Garamond, all have very interesting origin stories. I am very curious about the more polarizing fonts including Comic Sans.
