"Molengo" has Problem with "ä" #14

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
Hi!

Molengo seems to have problems with some Firefox Versions.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Firefox 3.5.10, Win XP SP3
2. font-size: 14px

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Instead of seeing an "ä" sometimes the dots are missing so you only see an "a"

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
I'm including the font via "http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Molengo"
On most other systems, even with a similar environment, the "ä" is rendered 
correctly.

Thank you for your great work.

We have problems with Molengo for Firefox installed on WinXP, but not on any 
other systems.

We tried with the newest Firefox version, 3.6.13. Vista and Windows 7, Firefox 
3.6.13, no problem... XP and Firefox 3.6.13, no visible text.

The capital "Ä" letter also causes strange problems in several jquery plugins 
(jquerytools tabs, jscrollpane) running on firefox.

Any line containing this letter turns the containing element "invisible". In 
addition, this error also causes all other contents with the same tag to turn 
invisible as well...

The attached screenshot show a couple of gray container without any visible 
content. All of the mare h4 headings. ONE of the contains a capital "Ä".

Writing the letter as html Ä doesnt help. Using the small "ä" instead removes 
the problem completely.

Regards,

BTW This happens in firefox 3.6.12 on WinXP SP3. On ubuntu 10.04 3.6.13 it 
doesn't happen...

I discovered tonight, that this is NOT a jquery related problem.

The effect shows it's ugly head WHENEVER I call Molengo through google font api:

<script src="js/googlewebfontloader/webfont.js"></script>
<script> WebFont.load({ google: { families: ['Molengo'] } }); </script>

p {font-family: Molengo, Arial, Serif;}

Is enough to cause this effect.

Is enough.

BTW: Just use google font previewer for chrome on this page to see how it 
works...
