Hello!
I had similar problem with squirrel fonts, but now it is happening again with Google fonts. How can I change codepage? I get national specific characters in some other boldish font, different than other letters in slide title.

Hi,
if you don't want Oswald font in your Image Show titles just remove 'h3' selector w from 'Body - selectors' in 'Font' section located in template settings.

normanuk, i don't know why but i can't post jpg attachment. i'll try to post it to you in pm.
konrad, i'd like to use oswald, it is nice. i looked at google font directory and this font contains croatian national specific characters, this shouldn't be a problem. i just need anotheer codepage. with aquirrel fonts in financial bisiness template i had to repack the font package so i can use subsets. for google fonts i don't see how can i do the same.

konrad,
please have in mind that i don't have any programmer's experience, except what i learn from joomla :)

i got from google this code:

@font-face {
font-family: 'Oswald';
font-style: normal;
font-weight: 400;
src: local('Oswald '), local('Oswald'), url(http://themes.googleusercontent.com/sta ... a_WHw.woff) format('woff');
}

how can i use that in the template?
font url in bike store template is http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family= ... 00,400,700 and that is slightly different. can i replace that url, or what to do?
tnx

I found that Google Oswald does not have all of my national specific characters. There are cyrillic, greek, latin, khmer and vietnamese subsets. I didn't expect that from my favourite template designer. Gavick, for how many people you are making your templates?

We are using the from all people on the world. To make our template more attractive we need to use not only regular fonts. Unfortunetly sometimes fonts don't support national special characters. In this case I advise found similar one which will support this special characters.

But, Konrad! This is designer's job! I'm totally blind in the matter of fonts! Come on, advise me with the name of font!

I apologize, there is a syntax for using Google Oswald font with croatian national characters. In template manager > edit style > fonts > font url there should be:
http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family= ... =latin-ext
