Multiple custom fonts not showing up; and help with mobile!

Go to solution Solved by Beyondspace,

Recommended Posts

Hi there. I have two questions!

Question 1: I am using GrandSlang, a custom font that has multiple styles - GrandSlang Roman and GrandSlang Italic. I want to implement both throughout the website (h1-h3), so that by default I am using GrandSlang Roman, and when I italicise words, it pulls from the GrandSlang Italic font (and not simply italicize GrandSlang Roman.

I have both of the fonts  uploaded into Squarespace, I'm just not sure how to write the code so that it does not apply one style for all

Here's the website with the header that has both Roman and Italic styles: https://www.arcanastudio.co/

Here's my code

Quote

@font-face {
    font-family: 'Grandslang';
    src: url(https://static1.squarespace.com/static/61ecba7a4fad86641f4faffc/t/61ecbacdcc0eeb42ab7244e0/1642904269271/GrandSlang-Roman.otf);
  
}
h1, h2, .image-title.sqs-dynamic-text h4 {
    font-family: 'Grandslang',sans-serif !important;
}

Question 2: My custom fonts are not showing up on mobile! Any ideas?

Thanks @Beyondspace for checking. That's weird, I just checked on my mobile, and this is the first time I've seen it successfully appear on my phone... 

Wondering if you can answer my first question 🙂 You'll see the italic is indeed, italic. However, the font has a specific italic font, which it should look different. But I don't know how to apply the code to tell the font to use the italic font when it is italicised.

Here's a screenshot if the font were the italic font (and not just italic styling)

You can try

h1 em, h2 em, h3 em, h4 em {
  font-family: 'your custom font for italic' !important;
}

Hmm, that's not quite working. Here's my code and a screenshot of what I'm trying to achieve. Thanks for helping 🙂 @Beyondspace

Have you tried adding this custom Css code?

I tried the font Grandslangitalic for other normal text

But it does not show the font as you describe?

May be the reason is the installation of Grandslangitalic font. Can you check the font file again?

Ok, I added the above (with 'grandslangitalic') - Can you see on your computer how it looks? As I have the font installed on my computer, so of course it shows up correctly. It also works now on mobile, but now the Italic is TOO italicized 😅

It looks different on my end

Now the normal heading and the italic text have the right font. I think the font is fine now
