To use font icons from FontAwesome we set the document attribute icons with the value font. The default link to the CSS location is https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/font-awesome/4.1.0/css/font-awesome.min.css. We can change the location for the FontAwesome CSS with document attributes.
If we want to use a different CDN to serve the CSS we can set the document attribute iconfont-cdn and set the URI as a value:
:icons: font // Set new URI for reference to FontAwesome CSS :iconfont-cdn: //maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/font-awesome/4.1.0/css/font-awesome.min.css == Sample doc
To reference the FontAwesome CSS from a relative location from our generated HTML page we can first unset the attribute iconfont-remote and set the attribute iconfont-name:
:icons: font // First unset attribute to remotely link FontAwesome CSS :iconfont-remote!: // Specify name of FontAwesome CSS. :iconfont-name: fontawesome-4.1.0 // We can optionally set the directory where CSS is stored. :stylesdir: css == Sample doc
In the generated HTML source we see the following link element:
... <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/fontawesome-4.1.0.css"> ...
