     <p>By default, Bootstrap assumes that the icon font files will be located in the <code>../fonts/</code> directory relative to your deployed CSS. For example, if your CSS file is at <code>http://example.com/foobar/css/bootstrap.css</code>, then your font files should be at <code>http://example.com/foobar/fonts/glyphicons-halflings-regular.woff</code>, etc.</p>
     <p>If you are placing the icon font files elsewhere or changing their filenames, you will need to adjust the <code>@icon-font-path</code> and/or <code>@icon-font-name</code> Less variables accordingly.</p>
