Luckily it's not, but only on Helvetica Bold in MailChimp layouts. After I posted my happy discovery, some garbling was still cropping up. But just know it might not the total cure. Hi Suitcase is a third-party font utility but you can load Roboto into your Mac's Font Book utility.

I went into my settings to Appearance>Customize fonts, not really sure where everyone else was talking about, and my standard font is Times, and in checking that and all the other types of fonts, there isn't even Roboto listed.Īgain I wonder if an update or re-launch fixed it, or is this just a fluke and will I see this font issue again?Īgain, if anyone who might read this and can take a moment to direct others on how to find the Roboto or San Francisco or other offending fonts, please respond. Did it really update, or did I need to re-launch it a few times? And, do I have the Roboto font somewhere? I started looking through my documents, and all the text is normal again. After a while, I reopened, and manually checked for updates.

I again, Quit Chrome, but never saw anything updating (with the auto-updates, it usually does it automatically after you shut down). Since I couldn't figure out where Roboto was, and since I never have messed with fonts - no reason and no desire - I saw, again, that Chrome needed an update (did it actually ever update yesterday or not?). When I reopened, it was still an issue, so today found this forum. No time to mess around with it, but I noticed Chrome needed to do an update, so clicked the little Update button in the upper right and let Chrome close and do its thing. A few minutes later another guy was going to share his screen and the same thing happened.Īfter finding my Google docs all messed up in Chrome, I figured it had to be something on Google, but wasn't getting any Google reports of issues that our department auto-sends us through Hangouts Chat (which of course, could also be going wonky since it is, after all, Google!). Just prior to this happening, we were doing a Team meeting over Zoom and when one of the guys tried to share his screen, Google Docs logged him out. I know it was not a language, since I could see little icons like leaves and dingbat-type of cute icons mixed in with letters of every world language. At times I could read part of a document, but then if I scrolled, it either disappeared or turned into the garbled stuff. I tried typing something, but realized I was changing the data in my documents, and had to blindly undo. Every Google document I went into was messed up. The fill colors were there, and the formatting looked the same, but each sheet I went to was blank, or if I scrolled I might get something that looked like Russian.

I went to a Google Sheet in Chrome, already opened and working in from day before, and all the data was blank. Something quite similar happened to me yesterday. I don't even know about font packages from Google Font, so anyone who might read this and can take a moment to direct others on how to find the Roboto or San Francisco or other offending fonts, please respond. The other posts don't directly say where they found the offending font. Chris Bryant found his in Suitcase Fusion, but I am unsure if that is something he has added on or not. If anyone can give step-by-step instructions on where to find this Roboto font, maybe others, like myself, can be sure to check in the right places. Thanks and Dobon for this chain that led me to sanity. Here is Chrome preferences with Roboto Disabled:
Remove duplicate fonts from fontagent torrent#
Mind you I am installing the font package from Google Fonts so it's not some shady torrent file version. I attempted to reinstall just out of curiosity and the problem reappeared. Uninstalled Roboto and voilà, refresh, text back to normal. I had both Roboto and Roboto Condensed installed. Me and Google indeed.Īnyway, found this thread and have to confirm what found as a solution. I attempt to look at my language settings and unfortunately don't speak Google robot but the below screenshot is an effective representation of my confusion. Please don't make me use Safari! (I don't hate Safari but I def prefer Chrome)Īnyway, I thought maybe it was a language issue but again, it wasn't jumbled everywhere. Why is some text jumbled in Chrome? *Check's Safari, everything is ok. Ok, I just had to create an account to chime in here and give a virtual high five to my hero of the day I have been searching for a solution without understanding what I was even trying to solve.
