If the Font Doesn’t Work
Usually the font will work once both boxes are checked. If this is not the case, there are two possible issues
Replace the WeightStyle Value with a Number
It is sometimes necessary to replace the WeightStyle value with a number. Google seems to prefer numbers to weight names. Here are the most common equivalents:
- 100 · Thin
- 200 · ExtraLight
- 300 · Light
- 400 · Regular
- 500 · Medium
- 600 · SemiBold
- 700 · Bold
- 800 · ExtraBold
- 900 · Black
If you want the font to be italic, just add it before or after the weight, separated by a space: 600 italic
Capitalization and Spacing
Some fonts have unusual capitalization or spacing. If a font is not working, it may be because Family is missing a space or has an extra space. For example:
- try changing OpenSans to Open Sans
- try changing Ko Ho to KoHo
