Hello Everyone,

 

Maybe you can help me here with an odd issue with web based fonts , from 2 different host and the Chrome browser, on windows 11, pc, etc.

 

Fire Fox Browser - I have seen this behavior but it corrects itself on the Adobe typekit font, and google never had a isssue on firefox browser.

 

Chrome Browser - The google hosted web font works great. The Adobe hosted font has a weird issue with spacing, and this is the same visual in firefox before firefox fixes it.

 

Here are 2 of the same websites i use hosted fonts on, one is year 2023 and GOOGLE hosted font oswald and the other is 2024 ADOBE hosted oswald, and you can see the Google 2023 looks fine in Chrome and the 2024 looks terrible.

2024

https://www47.myfantasyleague.com/2024/home/15387#0

 

Now i assume everyone will see what i am seeing but if not i am including a screen shot of each site in Chrome to further explain.

 

Also i do NOT have the Oswald font installed on my PC as i know that can lead to viewing issues where it looks great for me but others browsers with no font installed locally it can look missed up.

 

 

Here is another test site URL

View it in CHROME and then in FIREFOX and see the differences and where by the screen shots attached.

 

 

Thank you to everyone for taking a look.

Hi @umaynome,

 

Apologies for the delay. Our product team has been working on this. Please create a new web project using the Oswald font, add it to your site, and let us know if you’re still experiencing any issues with the Adobe fonts.

 

Regards,

Tarun

Hello, thank you for working on this indeed. However doing as you requested you can see it still is behaving the same way in CHROME and EDGE. from the above photos.

 

FIREFOX is ok it seems.

 

I have a new typekit css and i have a dedicated site you can always test if you can edit my typekit and keep URL the same or send me URL and i will add it so you can test without me etc.

 

Typekit CSS

@1552174 url("https://use.typekit.net/jxu2zba.css");

 

TEST OSWALD FONT SITE URL
