Fonts aren't brought along the Page Exporter

Here's my clientlibs and under my resources folder I have the fonts. works well on preview but when I export the page with Page Exporter. It doesn't come along. default Page exporter doesn't bring the fonts along?

    Thanks. I did try but it did not work. But I managed a work around by placing my fonts in dam and using the type=copy, path=to/dam/font

    It works but if I reference it from apps, it doesn't work.

    is this alright? not standard or something cause fonts should be placed under apps/resource. But it works!

    Lemme know what you guys think about this.

    But for now, I'll keep my fonts under content/dam.

    Thanks! that also works for me. I'm able to download the entire font using that, but the problem after is that the design node type=copy doesn't automatically points to that direction (../../apps/mySite/...myfont.otf) directly, But if I place my fonts in DAM the design node automatically points to my fonts location.

    Cheers!

      This is what worked for me on 6.4.3 for we-retail site. I just added 3 properties on '/etc/contentsync/templates/mysite'

      path: /apps/weretail/clientlibs/clientlib-site/resources/fonts

      type: copy    // I just found this type

      jcr:primaryType: nt:unstructured

      I'm able to download entire fonts folder specified by the path

      I'm also trying to change the folder structure if I can. How do you suggest I do it?

      I'm running out of ideas at the moment.

      --you may want to try with 6.3 as it worked for Arun and then figure out the 6.3 vs 6.4 differences later

      -- in the above screenshot, the path is missing "fonts" after "resources", add that and test 

      --change the path '/apps/mysite/clientlibs' to '/etc/designs/mysite/clientlibs', create a duplicate node structure and test

        Hello there! thanks. but unfortunately it's not working for me.
        I'm using 6.4.0 then installed service pack 6.4.3.

        Here's where my css lies,

        any ideas?

        Did you just use the default export settings? May I ask how did you apply your css to your html?

        Hi,

        I tried same in 6.3, for me it is working fine. Fonts are getting downloaded too. I did not configure my site for any custom content sync config

        though you can find more details to configure content sync at Mobile with Content Sync

          This is what I referred to test -

          generic node - A generic node is used to copy resources like clientlibs .js or .css files to the zip file

          path is the path to 'resources' folder and not to the file.

          "abc.ttf": {   //font name to be picked up

             "extension": "ttf",

              "type": "resources", 

              "path":  //path to resources folder

              "jcr:primaryType": "nt:unstructured"
