I have adobe Univers LT Std font purchased and installed on my PC, but there is a problem when I try to use it on the webpage. The font has otf format. I noticed that Chrome and FireFox use different font-family names for this font. FireFox 25.0 seems to use OT Family name (Univers LT Std) as a font-family value, and Chrome 30 uses PS font name (UniversLTStd). So I ended up writing my css like this:
p {
font-family: UniversLTStd, Univers LT Std;
}
Is there a way to avoid writing multiple family names for a single font to work in different browsers?
I've checked the font's attributes with FontLab Studio:
Family name: Univers LT Std 55
PS font name: UniversLTStd
Full name: Univers LT Std 55 Roman
Menu name: Univers LT Std 55
FOND name: Univers LT Std 55
OT Family name: Univers LT Std
OT style name: 55 Roman
Mac name: Univers LT Std 55
But didn't find any universal name to use as a font-family.
Have something to add?
