Typekit script in .js?

Hi there!

 

Require a bit of help on this situation I'm facing.

 

We acquired full control of a website from the previous web designers a while back and recently discovered that majority of the fonts went from serif (Freight family, taken from Typekit) to sans-serif.

 

We believe that the Typekit account used by the previous web designers have depreciated, hence the font issue. This is what we see in the source code (bolded the Project ID):

 

<script src="https://use.typekit.net/ryh0phl.js"></script>
<script>try{Typekit.load({ async: true });}catch(e){}</script>
 
We assumed that we could just generate a new code, replace the previous Project ID and all would go well. But this isnt the case as the generated code from our own Adobe account is in .css and written differently (bolded the Project ID):
 
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://use.typekit.net/drp7qdn.css">
 
Has Typekit done away with the .js script? Is there a way to continue using .js?
If not, how do I go about using the above new .css script instead?
 
Much thanks.

Adobe Fonts (formerly known as Typekit) uses a combination of JavaScript and CSS code to pull custom web fonts into your projects.

 

1. Log-in and select your desired fonts and variants.

2. Activate fonts within your "My Fonts" console and associate them with your new web project.

3. Copy & paste generated Adobe Fonts code into the <head> tag of your document.

4. Add the required CSS font-family, alternatives & variants to your stylesheet.

Thanks for replying, Nancy!

 

Would it be accurate for me to say that I've to do away with this script altogether?

 

<script src="https://use.typekit.net/ryh0phl.js"></script>
<script>try{Typekit.load({ async: true });}catch(e){}</script>

 

And only use the method you've written above?
