    Hello,

    I’m working RTL, the site language is hebrew.
    I’m using the google font “Assistant”, which supports english and hebrew.
    On pc everything works fine, but on mobile, the hebrew text compute as arial.

    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thank you

    Hello Paul,

    Thank you very much for your reply.

    However, that issue occours on my iphone 6.
    I had this thing with other themes in the past, and switching on ‘use subset’ would usually fix it.
    For some reason, X won’t use the hebrew subset.

    Any way to dig this one deeper? 🙂

    Thank you,

    Amihai

    Hi Amihai,

    Please check on other mobile devices since there are some known rendering issue with iPhone if you use Safari browser. If you see it works for Andoid devices and other browser (Firefox for iOS) then the issue is related to Safari.

    Thanks!

    Hi Rupok,

    This is constant for all browsers on both android and iphone.

    Thank you,

    Ok,

    figured it out!

    I had to download the Google Fonts for WordPress plugin, and then when i chose “Assistant”, it offered me to install the regular font.

    So i did.

    Works. 🙂
