Amp font is an amp-component in amp which basically helps to trigger and monitor custom fonts to amp page. This chapter discusses amp-font in detail.
To work with amp-font, we need to add following javascript file −
<script async custom-element = "amp-font" src = "https://cdn.ampproject.org/v0/amp-font-0.1.js"> </script>
The amp-font component is used for controlling the time taken for font loading. It has a timeout attribute, which takes time in milliseconds.By default, it is 3000ms. The component allows to add/remove classes from document.documentElement or document.body depending upon whether the font required is loaded or got into an error state.
The format for amp-font tag is as shown below −
<amp-font layout = "nodisplay" font-family = "Roboto Italic" timeout = "2000" on-error-remove-class = "robotoitalic-loading" on-error-add-class = "robotoitalic-missing" on-load-remove-class = "robotoitalic-loading" on-load-add-class = "robotoitalic-loaded"> </amp-font>
A working example on how to use amp-font in amp pages is as shown here −
