Are the font files loaded inside css files provided in our package?  Or did you load them by yourself? Hm, I still think it's probably a server-side problem.  I've found similar issue on github, maybe check it out. Best, Ania

Font files are located path : {my project name}/mdb/font/roboto/~

And mdb font files are 20 total.

I don't understand some part of your comment " font files loaded inside css files provided package".

Refer the html which is load the mdb.css as below :

<!-- Bootstrap core CSS -->
<link href="mdb/css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet">
<!-- Material Design Bootstrap -->
<link href="mdb/css/mdb.min.css" rel="stylesheet">
<!-- Your custom styles (optional) -->
<link href="mdb/css/style.css" rel="stylesheet">

But the last link style.css is empty.

Thanks.

Hi there, it's hard to tell what's wrong, but I suspect that it is caused by a problem with FTP. The file was uploaded as text (ASCII) instead of binary, which corrupted the file. Maybe try to change your FTP software to binary and t re-uploaded the font files, Maybe this article would be helpful. Changing your ftp program to binary transfer Best, Ania
