Force browser to use woff font file

I have defined following @font-face rule:

@font-face {
    font-family: "MyFont";
    src: url(MyFont.eot);
    src: url(MyFont.eot#iefix) format('embedded-opentype'),
         url(MyFont.ttf) format('truetype'),
         url(MyFont.woff) format('woff');
}

Since there were some bug in the woff font file I have fixed it and I need to test if font looks correct right now.

The problem is that i.e. Google Chrome uses ttf by default and I cannot modify the @font-face in the runtime - also I cannot modify the CSS on the server because of the complicated pipeline.

Can we force somehow the browser to use specific font file type ?

If you just want to test the woff file is working now, you can:

  1. Try Firefox, I believe they prioritise WOFF, or
  2. Temporarily change your @font-face code so Google Chrome only has WOFF as an option:
font-family: "MyFont";
src: url(MyFont.woff) format('woff');
