Hi. I’m using Open Sans font on my entire website.
Unfortunately, on some computers (including my client’s computer) the font is missing polish national characters – they get substituted by squares or by glyphs from another font:

How can I fix this? Is there any way to force the browser to use the webfont?
Hey!
I’m not noting the issue but try adding this at the very end of your theme / child theme functions.php file:
function add_subset_func($fontlist) { $fontlist .= "&subset=latin,latin-ext"; return $fontlist; } add_filter('avf_google_fontlist', 'add_subset_func');Cheers!
JosueThanks for your reply!
I’ve modified functions.php, as you suggested, but the problem still occurs:(
Do you have any other ideas?I’m able to reproduce that problem on my computer by installing the limited version (lacking the latin-ext subset) of the font in my system (windows 7):
