title: Why isn't font-squirrel @font-face generator working in IE8?
body: <p>BACKGROUND:<br>
  I've directly downloaded a package from font-squirrel.  I've done zero manipulation to this @font-face package. Additionally, the package has worked on every modern browser.</p>
  
  <p>CODE:<br>
  I've uploaded the code to my server: <a href="http://designobvio.us/font/accent-demo.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://designobvio.us/font/accent-demo.html</a></p>
  
  <p>QUESTION:<br>
  Does anyone know why IE8 or lower isnt rendering this @font-face?</p>
  
  <p>RESEARCH:<br>
  I know EOT is in the package.  I've read so many articles.  Most of them were understanding how @font-face works.  I feel as if I understand more about @font-face then I need too; nevertheless, none of the reads are solving the problem.  The closest answer is that's possible is that, IEtester isnt rendering correctly.  <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/7173095/fontface-in-ie7-ietester-not-working-properly">source</a></p>
  
  <p>NOTES:<br>
  I really don't think it is IE-tester that is messing this up (for I've tested various other sites that I know have @font-face <a href="http://www.pixeltheory.cc/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">example</a>).  Nevertheless, if anyone can vm test or has xp to test this that would be great.  </p>
