Hi Adobe,

 

There's a huge problem with the Adobe Typekit website and with the CDN (CSS file). Causing page loading speed to be extremely long and unreliable.

 

Do someone knows what happen ?

    When using font services like Adobe Fonts or Google Fonts, Page speed can indeed become an issue.

    One solution is to remove fonts and variations that you don’t use. Loading fonts asynchronously is another one:

     

    <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://use.typekit.net/XXXXXXX.css">
    <script>try{Typekit.load({ async: true });}catch(e){}</script>
    
    or
    
    <script src="https://use.typekit.net/XXXXXXX.js"></script>
    <script>try{Typekit.load({ async: true });}catch(e){}</script>

    Hi Maurice,

     

    I find my problem. It was a Google Chrome extension who caused the problem.

    But honestly, i like your answer. I'll use this code to load only the necessary.

     

    Thanks a lot! Have great day
