HUD Font

I've been trying to add two fonts to my HUD entitled "M+ 1c medium" and "M+ 1c black" and I cannot get them to work. Yes, I know how to add fonts, and yes I'm sure I am doing it correctly, but for some reason it's just not working. I don't know if it has something to do with the fact that the font names have a symbol in them, but I've even tried changing the font names using Typograf and still couldn't get them to work, so I'm not sure this is the case. I'm completely lost, so any help would be appreciated.

I'm positive it's correct. I've gone over it 8 times, so it has to be something else. I just don't know what it is.

Seems about right. I tried loading it in for myself but it wouldn't work for me either.

My best bet is that its just TF2/Source acting up. The same weird thing happen with OpenType fonts. Some work, some doesn't.

Another guess is the font is faulty in someway, probably the name got an excess space at the end of it, as in [M+ 1c black ].
