Before the update to V3, i used to have greek google fonts (open sans and roboto). After the update although i chose them, the greek fonts are not displayed nicely (The english fonts are ok).

I have tried to install the greek google fonts. I installed their code after <head>, but i don’t know what to do in order to add them in css.

Please help me with that.

Marius this is my site http://www.aplotaria.gr/

Since the greeks are not displayed well, i have changed them to Tahoma. I have put Open Sans (the fonts that I want to use) only in the Top Menu just to show to you.

As you can see, the english text (Newsletter) is displayed ok, but the greeks text are not displayed ok.

Please let me know what to do.

Hi,
I don’t understand, do you ask why you have those characters? Newsletter have latin characters and the other are written with Greek characters http://screencast.com/t/Vff0ymkWT

What i am saying is that the greek characters are not not loading correctly. The greeks characters are not dispayed as Open Sans, as they should be.

Maybe this has to do with browser. The problem appears in Firefox (see my screenshot). In your screenshot (i don’t know which browser you use) the greek characters seem to be ok.

Any ideas?

Hi,
I’ve tested your site in Firefox, Chrome and IE11 and the characters looks the same http://screencast.com/t/4mcyWykWriTc

If you check with inspector you will see that the font computed is Open Sans. http://screencast.com/t/vZzuzNNPbSKE

In some pcs characters look ok and in some others look awfully.

Thanks for your time

Hi,
DO you use cache? Empty the cache the try in Incognito mode (browse in private) to be sure the content is not cached.

Thanks!

Finally now it seems to be ok 🙂

I have few more questions about fonts.

1. How can I define the font of subtitle?
2. How can I define the font of author box content?
3. How can I define the font of Recents posts widget?

All these are PT Sand and I would like to change them to Open Sans or Roboto.

Thanks in advanvce.

}

2.

.author-box-wrap .author {
    font-family: your font;
}

3.

.widget_recent_entries a {
