How do I make sure all files are uploaded to Web Server when queuing a TFS build?

I have an asp.net project that has a fonts folder containing .ttf, .eot, .woff and .svg files.

After running the build, I check the web server and the .ttf, .eot and .woff files are not there.

I have also checked the drop folder, and it also does not contain those files.

All that can be found in the drop folder and web server are the .svg files.

How do I make sure that all fonts are uploaded via TFS build functionality?

Note: (Not sure if this would help) When you view the font files in solution explorer, the .eot and .woff file's icon appears like this icon https://support.cdn.mozilla.net/media/uploads/images/2012-11-13-19-11-25-ee0dc6.png - which should mean it is unrecognised. But the .ttf and .svg has their normal icons and is recognised.

On each files property is the Build Action set to Content? – Just TFS
@JustTFS - I am not sure, how do I check this? Fairly new to this. – GIVE-ME-CHICKEN
Open your solution / project in visual studio. Click Properties. in the properties window you should see the list of properties. check that the Build Action is set to Content – Just TFS
@JustTFS I am not sure where to find the build action setting or Properties window you are talking about? In Solution Explorer if you second click a project, you can select properties there. When that window pops up I see a Build Tab but no Build Action setting. Is this what you are talking about? – GIVE-ME-CHICKEN
Sorry, you need to check the property of each of the font files – Just TFS

Open your solution / project in visual studio. For each font file that you want to include in the output, right click and select Properties. In the properties window you should see the list of properties. Check that the Build Action is set to Content
