Web Fonts in tinyMCE4

Just curious; does anyone have a solution for getting web fonts (specifically Typekit) to work in the tinyMCE editor window? I've spent as much time as I can stand researching this issue today, and none of the methods I've tried, which relied heavily upon injecting js into tinyMCE's iframe, seem to work for me. This isn't a priority, but it would be nice if the editor was truly WYSIWYG for my team.

Re: Web Fonts in tinyMCE4

Talked to some of the developers here and they said they accomplished it by replicating /core/admin/layouts/_html-field-loader.php into /custom/admin/layouts/_html-field-loader.php and adding the TypeKit scripts below the TinyMCE initializers. Then you'd use the "content_css" attribute to set your CSS file that uses the TypeKit fonts.

Re: Web Fonts in tinyMCE4

Yeah, that's what I have been trying to do, albeit, not in the custom/admin/layouts directory. I've tried embedding the Typekit async code in every place/method I can think of, and it keeps breaking the editor. I've been trying to do something similar to this in _html-field-loader.php:

tinyMCE.init({

   // General options
   mode : "textareas",
   theme : "advanced",
   
   // Setup function
   setup: function(ed) {
   
      // Add TypeKit script to the iframe header
      ed.onPreInit.add(function(ed) {
     
         // Get the DOM document object for the IFRAME
         var doc = ed.getDoc();
         
         // Create the script we will add to the header asynchronously
         var jscript = "var TypekitConfig = {\n\
            kitId: 'abcdefghijk'\n\
            };\n\
            (function() {\n\
            var tk = document.createElement('script');\n\
            tk.src = '//use.typekit.com/' + TypekitConfig.kitId + '.js';\n\
            tk.type = 'text/javascript';\n\
            tk.async = 'true';\n\
            tk.onload = tk.onreadystatechange = function() {\n\
            var rs = this.readyState;\n\
            if (rs && rs != 'complete' && rs != 'loaded') return;\n\
            try { Typekit.load(TypekitConfig); } catch (e) {}\n\
            };\n\
            var s = document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0];\n\
            s.parentNode.insertBefore(tk, s);\n\
         })();";
         
         // Create a script element and insert the TypeKit code into it
         var script = doc.createElement("script");
         script.type = "text/javascript";
         script.appendChild(doc.createTextNode(jscript));
         
         // Add the script to the header
         doc.getElementsByTagName("head")[0].appendChild(script);
         
      });
   
   }

});

Any chance your developers would be willing to share their code? smile

Re: Web Fonts in tinyMCE4

From one of our sites running BigTree 4.0 (should be pretty similar in 4.1, there's just a bunch more code to switch between TinyMCE 3 and 4). Obviously this is running in TinyMCE 3, so there's a chance it may not function in 4.1. From what they said it sounds like TinyMCE's iframe will have access to the fonts of the parent since it's an empty iframe. I haven't tested beyond Firefox, but the site this comes from does seem to be loading the fonts into the WYSIWYG.

<?
	$content_css = $cms->getSetting("tinymce-content-css");
?>
<script type="text/javascript">

Re: Web Fonts in tinyMCE4

Bummer, I did try that method as well. This doesn't appear to work with tinyMCE4.
