I had these particular warnings (still have actually). The only thing I found was this: `mimetypes.add_type('application/font-otf', '.otf', True)`, but it doesn't work for me. — Mathieu Marques, Aug 16 '13 at 11:44

So, you are serving static files in Django dev server?

In settings.py I think you need:

if DEBUG:
    import mimetypes
    mimetypes.add_type("application/font-woff", ".woff", True)

...from info given in these questions on SO:

great, awesome, nice.As I am using google maps API, My django server is not serving the .woff files but from google server with this error in console `Resource interpreted as Font but transferred with MIME type font/woff: "https://themes.googleusercontent.com/static/fonts/roboto/v9/RxZJdnzeo3R5zSexge8UUT8E0i7KZn-EPnyo3HZu7kw.woff"`, so how I can solve this? – madhu131313 Aug 27 '13 at 21:21

It is only a Warning from Chrome, not an Error. You can safely ignore the warning. In future versions of Chrome this warning will not be shown - see this ticket: https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=248712 – Anentropic Aug 28 '13 at 10:22
interesting to note: it appears the `font/woff` mime type that Chrome is complaining about will in future be the *correct* mime type – Anentropic Aug 29 '13 at 11:01
