I have tired many things but i can\'t get it even though my computer has it.
How can I access this wont files? They have the .woff extension. Double clicking them in chro
Although Marcelo's solution seems to be working great, you may not need to download the font at all! Just link to it remotely.
E.g the font is hosted on example.com, do
@font-face {
font-family: "Font Name";
font-style: normal;
src: url(http://example.com/webfonts/font-name.woff);
}
You may easily figure out the direct url to the font by looking into css code from example.com and see how they linked the file.
It's easy (For Chorme only)
.woff
format) > open link in new tab (this should download the font in .woff
formatIf you are on a unixoid operating system and want to extract just a single file you can try the following. The structure of the chrome://cache
pages is URL, parsed HTTP header, hex dump of the HTTP header and then hex dump of the payload.
To extract a file copy all payload lines from a Chrome cache page to the clipboard (starting at the second 00000000: ...
line), paste them into a text editor and save them as a plain text file (e.g. file.txt
). If the payload is a gzipped WOFF file use xxd -r file.txt > file.woff.gz
to convert it back to a binary file and gunzip file.woff.gz
for decompression.
You can then use woff2otf to convert WOFF files to the OTF format or woff2 to convert WOFF 2.0 files to the TTF format. For batch processing this workflow should obviously be scripted.
I found the Chrome option to be OK but there are quite a few steps to go through to get to the font files. Once you're there, the downloading is super easy. I usually use the dev tools in Safari as there are fewer steps. Just go to the page you want, click on "Show page source" or "show page resources" in the Developer menu (both work for this) and the page resources are listed in folders on the left hand side. Click the font folder and the fonts are listed. Right click and save file. If you are downloading a lot of font files from one site it may be quicker to work your way through Chrome's pathway as the "open in tab" does download the fonts quicker. If you're taking one or two fonts from a lot of different sites, Safari will be quicker overall.
Open chrome
Right click => inspect => navigate to application tab
In Frames section, all the statically available assets(resources) such as css, JavaScript, fonts are listed.
To get .woff fonts first open the chrome dev tools panel (Ctrl+Shift+i
) go to Network and reload the page. There you will see everything the page downloads. Find the .woff file, right click and select Copy response.
The response will be a url so paste it in the navigation bar. A file will be downloaded, just add the .woff extension to it and voila.
