Font hasn't changed

I am unable to copy and paste in workspace so I typed the code for @font-face. Ive reviewed it and messed around with it a ton and just can't figure out what is wrong. Here is a snapshot of my css. Thanks in advance to any help!

I had a similar issue with this so I did some further digging on some resources. After removing the 's and spaces from the declaration at the top of the style.css file and then from the properties and attributes in the h1, h2 selector then it seemed to work:

Declaration:

@font-face {
    font-family: AbolitionRegular;
    src: url(../fonts/abolition-regular-webfont.eot);
    src: url(../fonts/abolition-regular-webfont.ttf);
    src: url(../fonts/abolition-regular-webfont.woff);
}

h1, h2 selector:

h1,
h2 {
    font-family: AbolitionRegular, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;
}

Not sure if this is the correct way to do things as I'm still learning myself but it seemed to import the fonts back into the site.

Hope it helps!

Hi! Not sure if you still need a solution for this given that this was posted months ago, but the Abolition Regular font should be in single quotes instead of double quotes.
