use custom fonts in tilemill?

It seems like this can be done... but all the suggestions I've seen online aren't working for me. I have a customFont.ttf tile that I'm putting in this dir: 'home/greg/Documents/MapBox/project/myproject/customFont.ttf'

Then I'm using this code:

Map { font-directory: url(customFont.ttf); }

or 

Map { font-directory: url(''); }

or 

Map { font-directory: url(fonts/customFont.ttf); }

but nothing is working. I just get en error message such as:

"Invalid value for text-face-name, the type font is expected. comicSansMs, Arial Regular (of type string) was given. (line 71)"

any tips?

place your fonts in the folder app/assets/fonts, lib/assets/fonts or vendor/assets/fonts

If Rails 4+, you can only place your fonts in the folder app/assets/fonts.

In css:

@font-face {
  font-family: 'customFont';
  src:url('customFont.ttf');
  font-weight: normal;
  font-style: normal;
}
