Website font looking weird

4.5

Text appears as blocks, symbols, or a generic font like Times New Roman.

Symptoms
  • Garbled text
  • Symbols instead of letters
  • Font too thin/thick
Possible Causes
  • Web font failed to load
  • Encoding mismatch
  • Browser extension conflict

Step-by-Step Fix

1

Refresh the Page

Forces the browser to try downloading the font file again.

2

Disable "Font" Extensions

Extensions that force specific fonts can break site layouts.

3

Check Browser Encoding

Ensure it is set to "Unicode (UTF-8)".

When to See a Technician

If the site uses "Google Fonts" and that service is blocked in your country, the font will fail.
