Cufon fonts not loading immediately

  • My Cufon font does not load immediately. The default font shows up for a couple of seconds before the Cufon font loads. I’m using “All in One Cufon” plugin, but the problem occurred when I manually entered the code. I loaded the plugin to see if it would fix the problem. I’ve seen sites using cufon that don’t do this so I’m sure I’m doing something wrong.

    Here’s my Website https://www.test.reflections-etc.com/share-the-fun/

    Your help is appreciated.

    I wasn’t able to fix it. I gave up. If anyone else out there can help that would be great.

    Hmmm, i tried something that did work for me. What this does is it does not display the text untill it’s loaded proper.

    I just used my standard stylesheet for this and hid the text while it’s loading. Cufón applies a extra class to your text while it’s loading, which is: .cufon-loading

    .cufon-loading h1 {
	visibility: hidden !important;
}

    Ok I tried. It didn’t allow the cufon font to load at all. Is there a way to hide the original font while loading?

    hmmm. Not if you remove !important?

    I have seen some examples where they load that css in the header or just after the body tag opens. Then they would reload with visibility: visible;

    <style type="text/css"> .cufon-loading h1{visibility: hidden !important;}</style>

    <style type="text/css">h1{ visibility : visible }</style>

    This did not work for me. But i guess it depends on what theme you are using and where “All in One Cufón” actually loads.

    Do a google search on “fouc cufon” for more on this
