The process of getting WOFF2 fonts onto your website varies depending on how you're publishing your site.
Roughly, however:
1) Each HTML page needs to load a CSS file that contains `@font-face` declarations for each style of the font that you want to use. The text of the HTML page needs to be annotated with formatting tags that invoke the font.
2) Each `@font-face` declaration needs to map a distinct combination of attributes — `font-family` (= the name of the family), `font-weight` (= regular or bold weight) and `font-style` (= roman or italic) — to a specific WOFF2 file on disk.
THE GOLDEN RULE: The regular, italic, bold, and bold italic styles of a family should all be declared with the same `font-family` name in the respective `@font-face` declarations, so that the web browser understands them as related styles of a single family.
3) The WOFF2 files need to be at the locations specified by the `@font-face` declarations.
There's more than one way to do this. But each subdirectory here contains a "sample.css" and "sample.html" file that shows a simple working example.
