Hi,
i have problem with ja_beranis template. By default it works only on traditional latin charset of Robot font. I want to make it work with latin-extended, but when i add

&subset=latin,latin-ext

to google font embedding link in /etc/assets.xml font is not loading…at all.

Any ideas?

Hi riomega,

You may need to check again the embedded code for character sets you select. For example: I select like this: http://www.google.com/fonts#UsePlace:use/Collection:Roboto

and here is code generated: <link href=’http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto&subset=latin,latin-ext’ rel=’stylesheet’ type=’text/css’>

Regards

this was the first thig i tried.
it doesn’t work. Anything that has &subset… is ignored and font is not loaded. it looks like template or T3 bug.

Hi riomega,

Please try this way:

– Create a css file named ‘custom.css‘ in directory: /templates/ja_beranis/css

– Add this line inside to import roboto font with latin extended set:

@import url(http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto&subset=latin,latin-ext);

If it still doesn’t work, pm me admin and ftp account of your site, I will check it for you.

Regards

ok, since i got no useful help from support team i tried and found a workaround.
instead of loading font through .css / .xls file with assets i’ve just added it to templates/ja_beranis/tpls/blocks/header.php (at the end, just before end-tag </header>

i’ve used simple google code:
<link href=’http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto:400,100,100italic,300italic,400italic,500,500italic,900,700,700italic,900italic,300&subset=latin-ext,latin’ rel=’stylesheet’ type=’text/css’>

Hi, for me work this hack:

1. Open the /etc/assets.xml file
2. Replace:

<stylesheets>
<file>http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto:400,100,100italic,300,300italic,400italic,500,700,500italic,700italic,900,900italic</file>
</stylesheets>


with this

<stylesheets>
<file>http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto:400,100,100italic,300,300italic,400italic,500,700,500italic,700italic,900,900italic&subset=latin-ext,latin</file>
</stylesheets>


Very important: use & instead only & !

Hope this help. 🙂

😀 Fine Tibortó!
I would had to find out where to put it but you helped a lot now.
Open the /etc/assets.xml file

OMG!

How should I add latin-ext to Fixel’s downloaded Font Squirrel typeface?

<file>fonts/novecentowide/stylesheet.css</file>
Should I download from Font Squirrel the proper charset? Noooooo. :((

“latin-ext” works only with Google Fonts. If you prefer use Font Squirrel, you need download proper files from FS website.
For example, this font support Hungarian language: http://www.fontsquirrel.com/fonts/list/language/hungarian 🙂

Hi Tiborto 😉
Not especially me but JA preferred using a Google and a Font Squirrel Typeface at Fixel template.
I think there are many similar fonts at Google but it might be a love affair for the designer using NOVECENTO WIDE.
Telling the truth it is a painful decision embedding an “only-latin” subset of a font family.
Using Google fonts is not a foolproof solution but a much flexible way…
Cheers!
