1. Add the font on the /public folder. Just .woff2 extension is good enough https://caniuse.com/?search=woff2 | |
1.1. If you have a problem regarding vertical alignment, use https://transfonter.org/ and select "fix vertical metrics" | |
2. Import the font with CSS @font-face like below: | |
```css | |
@font-face { | |
font-family: 'Bebas Neue'; | |
src: url('/fonts/BebasNeue/BebasNeue-Regular.woff2') format('woff2'); | |
font-weight: 400; | |
font-display: swap; | |
} | |
``` | |
3. Optimize the font by preloading it. Add the snipet on _Document file: | |
```jsx | |
<link | |
rel="preload" | |
href="/fonts/BebasNeue/BebasNeue-Regular.woff2" | |
as="font" | |
crossOrigin="" | |
/> | |
``` | |
4. Not needed to add any caching mecanism. Nextjs takes care of it for static assets. More details here: https://nextjs.org/docs/going-to-production#caching | |
5. Make sure to test it on different browsers (safari, chrome, firefox and edge) with https://app.lambdatest.com/console/realtime/browser |
