Question

My apologies if this is a very simple question, but how do you use google material icons without a

Answer 1

The upper approaches does not work for me. I download the files from github, but the browser did not load the fonts.

What I did was to open the material icon source link:

https://fonts.googleapis.com/icon?family=Material+Icons

and I saw this markup:

    /* fallback */
@font-face {
  font-family: 'Material Icons';
  font-style: normal;
  font-weight: 400;
  src: local('Material Icons'), local('MaterialIcons-Regular'), url(https://fonts.gstatic.com/s/materialicons/v22/2fcrYFNaTjcS6g4U3t-Y5ZjZjT5FdEJ140U2DJYC3mY.woff2) format('woff2');
}

.material-icons {
  font-family: 'Material Icons';
  font-weight: normal;
  font-style: normal;
  font-size: 24px;
  line-height: 1;
  letter-spacing: normal;
  text-transform: none;
  display: inline-block;
  white-space: nowrap;
  word-wrap: normal;
  direction: ltr;
  -moz-font-feature-settings: 'liga';
  -moz-osx-font-smoothing: grayscale;
}

I open the woff font url link https://fonts.gstatic.com/s/materialicons/v22/2fcrYFNaTjcS6g4U3t-Y5ZjZjT5FdEJ140U2DJYC3mY.woff2

and download the woff2 file.

Then I replace the woff2 file path with the new one in material-icons.css

@font-face {
  font-family: 'Material Icons';
  font-style: normal;
  font-weight: 400;
  src: url(iconfont/MaterialIcons-Regular.eot); /* For IE6-8 */
  src: local('Material Icons'),
       local('MaterialIcons-Regular'),
       /* Old file: url(iconfont/MaterialIcons-Regular.woff2) format('woff2'), */
       /* load new file */ 
       url(2fcrYFNaTjcS6g4U3t-Y5ZjZjT5FdEJ140U2DJYC3mY.woff2) format('woff2'),
       url(iconfont/MaterialIcons-Regular.ttf) format('truetype');
}

That makes thing works for me.
