copied!<p>Looks like IE8-IE7 can't understand multiple Google Web Font styles through the <strong>same file request</strong> using the <code>link</code> tags <code>href</code>. </p> <p>These two links helped me figure this out:</p> <ul> <li>See this <a href="http://code.google.com/p/googlefontdirectory/issues/detail?id=9" rel="nofollow noreferrer">open Google issue</a>, and look at the comments. </li> <li>Also see this StackOverlow Answer <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/9050747/google-web-fonts-dont-work-in-ie8">Google Web Fonts don't work in IE8</a></li> </ul> <p>The only way I have gotten it to work in IE7-IE8 is to only have one Google Web Font request. And only have one font style in the <code>href</code> of the <code>link</code> tag:</p> <p>So normally you would have this, declaring multiple font styles in the same request:</p> <pre><code><link rel="stylesheet" href="http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Open+Sans:400,600,300,800,700,400italic" /> </code></pre> <p>But in IE7-IE8 add a IE conditional and specify each Google font style <strong>separately</strong> and it will work:</p> <pre><code> </code></pre> <p>Hope this can help others!</p>
