Title: Google fonts rendering problem Last modified: August 30, 2016 --- # Google fonts rendering problem * Resolved [Romanko](https://wordpress.org/support/users/romanko/) * (@romanko) * [10 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/google-fonts-rendering-problem/) * Hi Tom, I have this strange problem with the Titillium web google font. * [primumclinic.sk](http://primumclinic.sk/) * It is not rendering properly. I thought at first that it was problem with a certain microsoft update for Vista which affects Chrome, but now I noticed it is also sometimes a problem on Firefox Win7, Chrome Win7, on different PCs. * Can there be a problem with they way fonts are embedbed into the page? I mean the Google embed code, which normally goes underneath the ? * Or anything else? Is there a way to solve this?

Looks normal to me on Chrome. * I have experienced issues with Google Fonts and Chrome because of the latin-ext subset being used when it’s not necessary. I’m not sure if that subset is needed for your language, but if not, try removing it. * Thread Starter [Romanko](https://wordpress.org/support/users/romanko/) * (@romanko) * [10 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/google-fonts-rendering-problem/#post-6456092) * Yeah it looks normal on Chrome, but maybe on your computer. But I tested it on 4 different ones running Vista or Win7 and it was off either on Firefox or Chrome. It seems it is completely random. * My question is, where is the google embed code originally put in GP? Can I add the google embed code into the header.php underneath the , will it not interfere with the original one? * Theme Author [Tom](https://wordpress.org/support/users/edge22/) * (@edge22) * [10 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/google-fonts-rendering-problem/#post-6456150) * Any reason you’re wanting to remove the original one? It should create exactly what you need based on the fonts you have chosen? * What exactly is the rendering issue? What happens to the text? * Theme Author [Tom](https://wordpress.org/support/users/edge22/) * (@edge22) * [10 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/google-fonts-rendering-problem/#post-6456325) * Any updates on this? 🙂 * Thread Starter [Romanko](https://wordpress.org/support/users/romanko/) * (@romanko) * [10 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/google-fonts-rendering-problem/#post-6456326) * Well, I needed latin extended, so I added the js code into the header.php. * But the rendering is still off. On my Vista anyway, and Win7 too. Check it out. * Wrong render: [Chrome on Vista](http://snag.gy/NrwX0.jpg) * Ok render: [Firefox Vista](http://snag.gy/J5ifD.jpg) * Or is it just the way chrome renders any font?? Because to my eyes this Titillium font is unreadable for more than 3 min. * Thread Starter [Romanko](https://wordpress.org/support/users/romanko/) * (@romanko) * [10 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/google-fonts-rendering-problem/#post-6456327) * How do I override the googlefonts loading from servers so that I could self host fonts? * I uploaded my fonts, did the @font-face css, and now I have to do what? define textarea {font-family: myfont;}? * Thx. * Theme Author [Tom](https://wordpress.org/support/users/edge22/) * (@edge22) * [10 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/google-fonts-rendering-problem/#post-6456328) * In my experience Google Fonts in Chrome do look a little different than in Firefox. Firefox usually renders them a little more thick/bold than Chrome. * This may help when it comes to using your own fonts: [https://css-tricks.com/snippets/css/using-font-face/](https://css-tricks.com/snippets/css/using-font-face/) Viewing 7 replies - 1 through 7 (of 7 total) The topic ‘Google fonts rendering problem’ is closed to new replies. * ![](https://i0.wp.com/themes.svn.wordpress.org/generatepress/3.6.1/screenshot. png) * GeneratePress * [Support Threads](https://wordpress.org/support/theme/generatepress/) * [Active Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/theme/generatepress/active/) * [Unresolved Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/theme/generatepress/unresolved/) * [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/support/theme/generatepress/reviews/) ## Tags * [google fonts](https://wordpress.org/support/topic-tag/google-fonts/) * [rendering](https://wordpress.org/support/topic-tag/rendering/) * 7 replies * 2 participants * Last reply from: [Tom](https://wordpress.org/support/users/edge22/) * Last activity: [10 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/google-fonts-rendering-problem/#post-6456328) * Status: resolved
