    Hi Friends,

    Since Hueman 3.6.7. version I tried to switch my sites from Arial and Source Sans Pro(Latin-ext) back to the self hosted Titillium fonts. But among the self hosted Titillium fonts some “special” accented letters as ‘?’ and ‘ü’ will always display bold in the texts.
    Any idea to solve this?

    Sure,

    Source Sans Pro(Latin-ext) site

    You can test a chunk of test online on the Google font website : https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Titillium+Web, and see if the problem occurs there as well.
    When customizing, you might want to select the not self-hosted Titillium which might be more up to date than the self-hosted one

    I have tested online on the Google font website you linked.
    The problem doesn’t occur there. Both ‘?’ and ‘?’ displays properly.

    I’d like to use the self-hosted Titillium on my sites, because of the 3.6.7. update features (that implements preload for the fonts embedded in the theme) thus rendering the page significantly faster.

    I have noticed one more interesting situation while using the customizer screen.
    If I change the font type to the self-hosted Titillium in the customizer ‘first’ preview displays the ‘?’ and ‘?’ fonts properly.

    But if I jump to another post within the open customizer, the ‘second’ preview will already display the bold letters.
    Also the latter happens on the live site (bold letters) if I hit “Save and publish”, in spite of the ‘first” preview content.

    This problem occurs with the self-hosted Titillium fonts only.
