      Hi all,

      i’ve added some modules to my MM and i see that there is some problem with fonts as you can see some characters have different font. (most visible in newsfeed)

      i’ve edited custom.css and added this lines :
      body {
      @font-face {
      font-family: “Verdana”;
      font-style: normal;
      font-weight: 100;
      src:
      local(“Verdana”),
      url(“/fonts/Verdana.ttf”) format(“truetype”);
      },
      .newsfeed {
      font-family: Verdana;
      },
      }

      i’ve downloaded font Verdana.ttf and copied to MagicMirror/fonts folder
      but it’s not working font is still not ok
      Can you please help me how to solve this problem ?

            Open up your console in dev tools and see if you’re getting any errors

            Do. Or do not. There is no try

              Folder path is misdirected, try this

              body {
              @font-face {
              font-family: “Verdana”;
              font-style: normal;
              font-weight: 100;
              src:
              local(“Verdana”),
              url("../fonts/Verdana.ttf") format(“truetype”);
              },
              .newsfeed {
              font-family: Verdana;
              }, 
              }

                  @maros Did you fix this issue? I’ve encountered the same with Polish news…

                  edit:
                  solved by installing Roboto fonts into Raspbian (found somewhere here at the forum or in the Internet).

                    @cabott I have the same problems. Some characters are not showing properly only on the newsfeed module.
                    I have tried installing roboto fonts with apt, how did you installed it? (And which package).

                      @radokristof sorry for late answer, I completely missed this topic. For those who still had this issue:
                      I just installed the fonts with

                      sudo apt-get update
                      sudo apt-get install fonts-roboto
                      

                      then

                      fc-cache -fv
                      pm2 restart MagicMirror
                      

                      and voila… works for me.
