Yanone Kaffeesatz partially broken

Open qpwr opened this issue 4 years ago • 1 comments

When using Yanone Kaffeesatz, number "8" prints out in a weird symbol shape. Reproducible on the website. As far as I could see no other chars are affected. Font works fine on Google Fonts. Seems to be an issue in all major browsers.

This could be with the website of this tool or the fact that it downloads outdated fonts. If it's just an issue with the website the issue could be gone if you use the font yourself. Did you try or only saw it like this on the website?

You will probably not have any issue if you use nextgenthemes.com/google-webfont-downloader/ as it's getting the exact modern versions of fonts as google serves then. This tool seems pretty outdated and unmaintained. There is also no need for a new UI for google webfonts the way they work (now) IMO.
