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.

    Did you create specific nodes to export each type - woff, ttf, evg, eot etc.? I assume that you'd need to create it.


    For example the following configuration node copies the geometrixx clientlibs .js files to the zip file:

    "geometrixx.clientlibs.js": {   //any name

        "extension": "ttf",

        "type": "clientlib",  // or try with "resources"

        "path": "/etc/designs/geometrixx/clientlibs/resources",  //path to resources folder

        "jcr:primaryType": "nt:unstructured"  // type of each font

    reference -

    The Page Exporter

    Thanks for taking time to answer.
    But according to content sync

    client lib can only be set to js or css ATM.

    I tested with otf but what happen was, my design node wasn't brought along with the zip.

    This is what my code looks like

    -Referencing to the correct path.

    This is what the converted code looks like

    and this the file

    -------

    Now here's what type-assets did.

    Original code:

    Converted to zip code:

    and the folder structure it gave me.

    \

    -under that content is the reference image.

    -under that var is where the css lies.

    If I use type=copy path=font/path it would download the fonts but the css will not directly reference.

    Thanks! tell me if you need more information.

    More information:
    http://localhost:4502/etc.clientlibs/mySite/clientlibs/clientlib-base.css

    this resources on the server also renders like

    node design type=copy should include my clientlib-site/resources folder to render font.

    I am checking internally to see if there is a known issue.

    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"

      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
