We have recently developed a website with a strong reliance on Font Awesome as part of it's design. We're using the standard implementation with before:content and their supplied CSS.

For some reason Font Awesome isn't displaying in IE8. I've spent quite a few hours troubleshooting and trying various fixes, with no luck.

I have:

  • Set the mimetype of EOT to application/vnd.ms-fontobject
  • Set the mimetype of OTF, TTF to application/octet-stream
  • Executed HTML5Shiv after all CSS has been loaded.
  • Various attempts to reload the CSS or DOM on page load

Here is the website: http://www.tetakere.org.nz - the Hotlinks box is a good example of Font Awesome

Has anyone got any ideas on other approaches to getting this website to display Font Awesome?

After some painful troubleshooting I finally worked it out.

The solution was to move the loading of HTML5Shiv from the <head> section to just before the </body> tag.

<!--[if lt IE 9]>
<script src="//html5shiv.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/html5.js"></script>
<![endif]-->
</body>

This fixed it for me in IE7 but not 8. –  Synchro Mar 6 '13 at 11:16

It may be related to content rendering before the font load. I also put html5-shiv AFTER FontAwesome to solve this issue. See stackoverflow.com/questions/9809351/…. –  leesei Apr 23 '13 at 17:38

I tried everything from modifying my apache config, and .htaccess files with no luck. In the IE development tools I stumbled upon "Document Mode" and the default was IE7. So after some research I found this meta tag:

<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=9">

Now IE 10, and 9 format my website correctly and display all Font Awesome icons correctly.

If you still want IE 8 compat then you could start with this:

<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=8">

Hope that helps...

I know this is an older question, but I had lots of trouble with this issue and none of these answers helped except the last one.

Changed the head...

What worked for me was:

<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge">

This also worked (last answer I referred to):

<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=8">

Also, I read (Force IE compatibility mode off in IE using tags) that you should put that meta tag above all other meta tags and before any conditional IE statements; otherwise the meta tag will be invalidated.

I did not need html5shiv to get FontAwesome to work in IE8. This answer (re-creating the .eot file and replacing the old one) solved my problem.

Why does this fontface render in IE8:

@font-face {
  font-family: 'Aller';
  src: url('aller_rg-webfont.eot');
  src: url('aller_rg-webfont.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'),
       url('aller_rg-webfont.woff') format('woff'),
       url('aller_rg-webfont.ttf') format('truetype'),
       url('aller_rg-webfont.svg#AllerRegular') format('svg');
  font-weight: normal;
  font-style: normal;
}

And this does not:

@font-face {
  font-family: 'Champagne';
  src: url('champreg-webfont.eot');
  src: url('champreg-webfont.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'),
       url('champreg-webfont.woff') format('woff'),
       url('champreg-webfont.ttf') format('truetype'),
       url('champreg-webfont.svg#Champagne&LimousinesRegular') format('svg');
  font-weight: normal;
  font-style: normal;
}

I really can't figure it out. All other browsers work fine, obviously.

Try creating a new .eot file with one of the others using an online woff/ttf/svg to eot convertor.

If this new file doesn't work, then it might be a problem with the font itself. Sometimes IE6-8 has a fit if the Fontname and Family Name are not the same within the actual font file. To fix it:

  • You'll need to download FontForge
  • Open up the font
  • From the menu, choose Element > Font Info
  • Ensure the Fontname, Family Name and Name for Humans are all the same
  • Save the font as a TTF or OTF and use an online convertor to spit out an EOT file.

Every issue I've had with font-face - if the CSS was correct - worked with one of the above two solutions, so good luck 🙂 Maybe even try saving the font without any changes in FontForge and converting that online before you fiddle with the name properties.

This not only solved my IE9 problem (it was working, but logging an error in the console), but it also got it working for IE8. A hug thanks! –  Chris Jul 31 '13 at 8:44

I also ran into this very same problem, I compiled the fixed EOT file and shared it here: gist.github.com/vjt/7436066. I hope this saves someone the very bad time I spent fighting with FontForge on Windows. –  vjt Nov 12 '13 at 18:26

Under IIS (MVC environment) I had to add the following rule to my Web.config:

   <system.web>
    <httpHandlers>
      <add verb="GET" path="*.eot" type="System.Web.StaticFileHandler" />
      <add verb="GET" path="*.svg" type="System.Web.StaticFileHandler" />
      <add verb="GET" path="*.ttf" type="System.Web.StaticFileHandler" />
      <add verb="GET" path="*.woff" type="System.Web.StaticFileHandler" />
      <add verb="GET" path="*.otf" type="System.Web.StaticFileHandler" />
    </httpHandlers>
  </system.web>
