Latin Extended characters in implemented fonts

Recommended Posts

Hi!

I'm designing a website for a Slovenian client. The language has some characters that are usually not in the default character set of a font (ć, č, đ, š, ž).

Is it possible to somehow enable Latin Extended character set in fonts that are already implemented in Squarespace?

Thank you and have a great day.

I think this will depend on the font family you use. Noto Sans is a great option for a huge character set:

Hi @Ziggy, thank you for you input!

I'm using Neue Haas Grotesk though and want to keep it. I know the font itself has Latin Extended characters, I'm just looking for a way to add them if possible.

If not, I can still use the font with all characters hosted somewhere else, but I would like to avoid that, since the same font is already implemented in Squarespace.

You're right, when I set it the characters are slightly different (though closer than yours for some reason).

 I think you would have to upload the full character set as a custom font in CSS, if you have access to the full font set.

I've never seen a way to alter the built-in fonts, if you want any customization, you need to upload your own font.
