A user of one of my fonts is experiencing a display problem on his web site. The “Ohungarumlaut” is not displayed correctly (Hungarian language). Instead of displaying the correct character, it displays the carcass with a webcore font instead. Do you have any ideas about this? Thanks
The website : https://klikkroi.hu/
If it’s in the font you delivered to them, then there are two possible explanations:
A. The website uses Unicode ranges in their CSS. Bad idea, unfortunately too often implemented wrongly.
B. They used a subset of your font. There are tools that do this on the fly.
Hello,
Thanks for your reply. I don’t have much web expertise on this subject. I’ll pass on your comments to the webmaster. I don’t think it’s the font itself. Tell me if I’m wrong.
Thanks again.
The webfont misses the “ő” (unicode: 0151).
Thank you Georg for your reply. The lowercase (0151) and uppercase (0150) characters are indeed present in the font. Unless the user has a very old version of the font.
I would assume Georg had a look at the webfont used on the site (?).
Can you pull the font file used on the site and check whether the characters are present?
Yes, I did.
Surely an old version or an illegal version of the font. Can we have the possibility to check the version string of the font ? I don’t know how to do it…
Convert the font with ttx to xml. Then you can find everything in there.
It’s font version 4.002, exported on March 11, 16:17:28 2022.
I see the font is from Fontspring. Fontspring has a webfont subsetter which probably has removed some glyphs to reduce the file size. That’s my best guess.
Thanks for your reply. I’m going to reply to the site’s webdesigner with all your answers. Have a great weekend!
