Hey there,
I hope you can help me to fix this problem. I already tried everything, but it does not work.
1. I uploaded a Google Font Zip with Monteserrat at Enfold import/Export
2. Enfold changes the font Name (Schriftart: static ( font-family: static )) (dont know why, but i already made this experience a few times with other fonts)
3. When I go to general styling I can choose this font (static)
4. at google Chrome, The Monteserrat is shown like Io want
5. At Safari: it does not take the montesserat font. but it also does not change to any other font. It always stays with default font.I have no Idea why.
Do you have an Idea?
January 27, 2024 at 9:51 am #1432193the package you can download from google on fonts that have “variable fonts” contains a subfolder with those static fonts.
Enfold could handle variable fonts – but you had to know how to work with those variable fonts.if you only like to upload those static fonts – pull this folder form that zip file to your desktop – rename it to “Montserrat” and (important) zip it for PC ( not including the invisible OSX files generates with their compression options.). Betterzip f.e. has a drop-window where you can choose for what system you zip it.
Why this is important. if you upload that zipped file you will have an additional font in there:

Next : Google does only offer ttf files for you. but it might be better to upload woff2 files ( brotli compression ) as font-files.
( less loading times on woff2 ). So it might be good to have both woff2 ( for modern Browsers ) and ttf (for older browser support)
see: https://kriesi.at/support/topic/host-web-font-yourself-some-info/#post-1364066
use transfonter to generate woff2 and ttf files – put them in one folder – rename the folder to your needs ( Montserrat ) – and upload that.
As mentioned there – think if you realy need an italic font to upload – because browser rendering might do a good job to of normal font.January 27, 2024 at 9:59 am #1432194see here a comparison of normal and italic font of montserrat ( just chaning it in developer tools to render the normal font as italic )
Yes – the small “a” is different !
some serif fonts do have more specific differences in comparison. On performance reasons – do not upload those italic font-styles.

Did you login and change something?
Today I opened safari and it’s working!!If It was not you: how can this happen over night? Yesterday I did empty the cache of course..
Cheers
