  Why, after some time (a few months), the Polish fonts changed and look awkward now – thicker than the rest? The motif is the same – I chose it because I liked it and because all fonts looked ok.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Your fonts look OK to me in Firefox 31 and 32 on Mac 10.9.4. Here’s a screenshot of what I’m seeing:

  

  1. Could you please take a screenshot to help in troubleshooting so I can see what you mean. Here’s a guide on how to make a screenshot, if you’re not sure: http://en.support.wordpress.com/make-a-screenshot/

  You can upload the screenshot – in a graphic format like JPG, PNG, or PDF – in your Media Library so I can see it. Thanks.

  2. Assuming you’re seeing the issue in Firefox, could you please try running it in safe mode to see if an extension may be interfering with the display.

  I’ve just switched Firefox into the safe mode and the fonts still look the same – you can see them in my media library :(

  They look ok on your computer and they looked ok on mine just a few weeks ago. Is it my computer that causes the problem now?
  Thank you very much for your help!

  Thanks for the screenshot. Here are a couple more troubleshooting questions:

  1. Do you see the font issue in another browser on your PC, such as Chrome?

  2. Could you please let me know what operating system you’re running? For example, Windows 8.1, Windows 7.

  The fonts are ok in Chrome.
  It’s Windows 8.1.
  Thank you!

  Thanks very much. I’m able to see the same thing as you in a browser emulator for both Firefox 32 / Windows 8.1 as well as Windows 7, so it seems to be platform- and browser-specific.

  This theme uses the Lato Google font. I went to the font’s page at Google and noticed this alert:

  Update, August 2014: The previous version of Lato included Extended Latin characters in the Latin subset. If you are experiencing problems, please select the Extended Latin (latin-ext) subset to render all European languages correctly.

  I’m going to pass this along to our developers to see if this is something they can implement in case it might help with the font issue. We’ll keep you posted here.

  It looks as if the developers managed to solve the problem, because fonts look ok now. Thank you very much!

  Yes, we’ve fixed the Lato font issue in this theme – as well as a few other themes that were also affected.

  Thanks again for bringing it to our attention!
