Adds Adobe's Source Sans Pro font to Rails via the asset pipeline.
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'source-sans-pro-rails'
And then execute:
$ bundle
If you want to include all of the font weight variations, simply add this to application.css
:
/*
*= require source-sans-pro
*/
You can also load just the font variants that are interesting to you. They are in the source-sans-pro
directory, so just change the above line to:
/*
*= require source-sans-pro/regular
*= require source-sans-pro/bold
*/
And so forth. Currently, the supported font variants are:
- Regular (
regular
) - Italic (
italic
) - Light (
light
- font weight 300) - Extra Light (
extralight
- font weight 100) - Semibold (
semibold
- font weight 600) - Bold (
bold
) - Black (
black
- font weight 800)
Add it to your CSS styles:
font-family: 'SourceSansPro';
And adjust the weight in the same way as with any other font:
font-weight: 400;
