We have a strange problem with Google Fonts while developing via localhost. On random refresh the letters of text scramble up. This happens about once every 5 refreshes. The images below show the letters scrambled up and the way they're supposed to be shown.
Also, while the letters are scrambled up, when we open the inspector and deselect the font-family property and then select it again, the letters show the correct way.
We don't encounter this problem when we deploy to a live server. Did anyone else have this problem?
I only did encounter this problem in Google Chrome, not in Firefox or Safari.
Are you by any chance using Django with debug_toolbar? We had the same problem with the debug toolbar. When we disabled it we didn't get the weird font styles. We're not sure why this actually happens. Think I will report this to the developers of the toolbar, maybe they can fix this.
