Asset pipeline and @font-face on rails(rails 3.2.3)
asset-pipeline, assets, font-face, ruby-on-rails, ruby-on-rails-3
Solution
You shouldn't need the `fonts/` portion of the file path. The `app/assets/fonts` directory should already be included in `asset_path`, so you should be able to use this:
<%= asset_path('arimo-regular-webfont.eot') %>
I don't know why this happens, but I've heard of people having issues with the `assets/fonts` directory not being in the asset pipeline so you have to add it manually. If the above doesn't work for you, try added the directory manually by putting the following in `config/application.rb`:
config.assets.paths << "#{Rails.root}/app/assets/fonts"
