    Hi there,

    What about the rendering is off? 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.

    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 <head>, will it not interfere with the original one?

    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?

    Any updates on this? ??

    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

    Ok render:
    Firefox Vista

    Or is it just the way chrome renders any font?? Because to my eyes this Titillium font is unreadable for more than 3 min.

    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.

    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/
