Thank you so much for your answer. I really appreciate the help. Unfortunately it is not working for me.
I attached my modified class to the mail. I think I have tried all possible
paths both in my class and in my HTML file ^^
Could it have something to do that I am not using a server but two files on
my computer?
What path(relative/absolute) did you put in your HTML file? I am using
Windows : maybe something wrong with the path to adopt
(C:\...\,C:\\...\\...,file:///C:/...., or a normal Unix path /Users/...)
Maybe some wrong attributes in the link tag(I am using just the supported
ones: type and href)?

ps: Good tip for the CSS fonts!
