  I want to add a custom web font css in Hebrew.
  I’m trying to use @import or @font-face, why is it stripped out?
  Blog url: http://greeninvoice.wordpress.com/

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Not all codes are supported here, for security reasons. Do you have the Custom Design upgrade in the first place?

  I want to upgrade and also move domain, but want to incorporate a special Hebrew web font: http://alefalefalef.co.il/fonts/almoni-dl/#webfont
  which it seems impossible.

  I can’t understand why @font-face url attribute is blocked. This is the only thing prevents me from starting the blog here.

  I checked the preview of custom design and it blocked my @font-face code (stripped out the url attributes).

  It’s always going to do that. Why don’t you just change the blog’s language to Hebrew?

  The blog language IS in Hebrew, but I want to use a web font in Hebrew which TypeKit or WordPress do not support.

  Can I maybe add the fonts to my media and then use it with @font-face?

  Not if you want anyone to read them. Take a look at the Custom Design upgrade and the font supports. Realize if the font is not installed on the reader’s computer, they will never see it.

  Thanks..

  It is very odd, and I can be sure WP will have to change it.
  I can’t find a single reason why a CSS image is Ok, but a CSS font is not.
