I am trying to implement an .otf font for a website I am working on with a @font-face rule:

@font-face {
  font-family: "Neris";
  src: url(../fonts/neris/neris-semibold.otf) format("opentype");
  font-weight: 400;
}

However, it doesn't work in IE, so I checked it with Caniuse and it said:

Partial support in IE9+ refers to the fonts only working when set to be "installable".

What's that mean anyway? Is there anything I can do to make it "installable" or should I give up IE support in this case? Thanks!

  • In answer to your second question (because the above-linked question has the correct answer for the first one), yes, you should give up IE support, by supporting "everything" instead: every currently maintained browser, including IE9, [comes with WOFF support](http://caniuse.com/#search=woff), so in this day and age you don't need five different font formats for webfonts, you just need one. Use that, instead. – Mike 'Pomax' Kamermans Feb 03 '16 at 16:46
