A fix to web fonts not displaying correctly

A fix to web fonts not displaying correctly

Just a little tip in case anyone is having a similar problem. For the past few weeks I’ve had issues with several websites (er, many) not displaying fonts correctly. Usually, only the titles, but at times all of the text on a site.

Here’s an example of how one site was displaying fonts for me (google chrome on the left, firefox on the right):

I came across this extremely useful and quick tip for fixing (at least for now) the issue at N7 Studios.

In a nutshell,

  1. Open Terminal
  2. Type in atsutil databases -removeUser
  3. Type in atsutil server -shutdown
  4. Type in atsutil server -ping

This worked for me. I just had to restart chrome before the fix worked. I hope google will come up with a solution to this though because it’s happening with many of their own fonts! Hope this helped.

I’m so happy to present the latest site for Earthsongs: Works in Clay! You can visit the site at claysongs.com.

Linda and I have worked together for years. We first “met” about six or seven years ago and we have been working on the various iterations of her site since then. It’s been excellent working with a client for this long and I sincerely value the relationship we have. It’s been a process that has allowed us both to witness each other’s businesses growing and changing which I can definitely appreciate.

Thanks to Linda! I hope you’re enjoying the new site!
