i have a problem in IE and Edge browsers with using 'Open Sans' font, defined in local .css file.

open-sans.html:

<html>

<head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <!--link href='https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Open+Sans:400,600,300' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'-->
    <link href='open-sans.css' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'>
    <style type="text/css">
        * {
            font-family: 'Open Sans';
            font-style: normal;
            font-size: 13px;
        }
        .light { 
            font-weight: 300;
        }
        .regular { 
            font-weight: 400;
        }
        .semibold { 
            font-weight: 600;
        }
    </style>
</head>

<body>

<p class="light">Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet...</p>

<p class="regular">Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet...</p>

<p class="semibold">Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet...</p>

</body>

</html>

In Chrome or FF i see right fonts (localy i don't have 'Open Sans' installed; OS - Windows 10)... in IE/Edge - the fonts are not working. But if i remove my link to open-sans.css and will use link to fonts.googleapis.com - everything is fine in IE/Edge. What's the reason? (my open-sans.css is a complete copy of "https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Open+Sans:400,600,300")

If you ask why i want to use local open-sans.css? I want to use different font-family defined for 'Open Sans', because right now if user have installed 'Open Sans' font in Win OS - the Chrome browser display them wrong (IE/Edge/FF are fine)

open-sans.css that i'm using:

  font-weight: 300;
  src: local('Open Sans Light'), local('OpenSans-Light'), url(https://fonts.gstatic.com/s/opensans/v13/DXI1ORHCpsQm3Vp6mXoaTXhCUOGz7vYGh680lGh-uXM.woff) format('woff');

your issue is due to woff2 font format not being supported by IE.

google font own css will give different font formats to different browser.

if you open https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Open+Sans:400,600,300 with chrome you will see woff2 font format being linked by the served css. if you open https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Open+Sans:400,600,300 with IE/Edge you will see woff2 font format being linked by the served css.

how to solve

you either add the woff format to your own open-sans.css or let google do it for you linking the google css

<link href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Open+Sans:400,600,300" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">

Giuseppe

in your css

@import url('https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Open+Sans');

.opensans {
  font-family: "Open Sans", sans-serif;
}
