title: Where do I place custom fonts in Laravel 5?
body: <p>Complete beginner to Laravel 5 and trying to import custom fonts using this code in my header:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;style&gt;
  @font-face {
      font-family: 'Conv_OptimusPrinceps';
      src: url('fonts/OptimusPrinceps.eot');
      src: local('☺'), url('fonts/OptimusPrinceps.woff') format('woff'), url('fonts/OptimusPrinceps.ttf') format('truetype'), url('fonts/OptimusPrinceps.svg') format('svg');
      font-weight: normal;
      font-style: normal;
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p></p>
  
  <p>and calling it in my variables.scss. Currently my fonts are stored in my public directory:</p>
  
  <pre><code>public/fonts/OptimusPrinceps.woff
  public/fonts/OptimusPrinceps.tff 
  etc.
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>For some reason this warning appears in my dev tools</p>
  
  <pre><code>Failed to decode downloaded font: http://localhost:3000/fonts/OptimusPrinceps.tff
  OTS parsing error: invalid version tag
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>And my font doesn't load correctly.</p>
