Tangerine Font issues

Hi

one of our customer wished to have the font Tangerine for her website.
With that font we have a such issue with iPhones:

How can we fix this issue? If we change the font everything is working fine.

Thanks

Hi,

Instead of hosting the font you can try using Google font
https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Tangerine

Go to the page and test your word so this way you will see if the characters is supported.
The ü  is supported

Also make sure the text has no typo in your code / page

Thanks lenamtl. Good idea to try Google font ;)
Don't forget to edit your CSS file as it check the local font file..
and add google font to your page.

You might have a talk with the client about readability and legibility.  It's a pretty font but it's more suited for a wedding invitation than for use on the web.

@lenamtl
we changed to https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Tangerine . But result is the same :(

@Dr. Klahn

Hi lenamtl

we tried everything but nothing could fix the issue.
Do you have another idea?

 
You have not edited the web site as it still taking the font from the server.

Hi lenamtl

I was sick. Sorry!

@font-face {
    font-family: 'Tangerine';
    font-style: normal;
    font-weight: 400;
    src: local('Tangerine'), url("../fonts/TangerineRegular-7JAD.ttf") format('');
}

Open in new window

Hi lenamtl
 
the language is german on the website & devices. We could not fix the issue. As the customer told it must be fixed immediately we hired the senior and the work was done. He did not tell what was done.

Thank you for your patience and assistance always :)
