Could you please take screenshots for me? This is the first time I'm hearing this one and the not changing is definitely an issue since they are drastically different.
I see the same thing with the light and dark styles

Here is an example Rei I tried to use "Quicksand" Font as the body paragraph font, and it shows there is no error in the initial tag for the font. But t he second image, doesn't show Quicksand Font style. But this will happen to Times New Roman as well. its the same effect that's happening to random Fonts I've noticed.

Hi there!
As I noted, the specialty fonts (Quicksand) are broken. The system understands a font is supposed to be there, but not how to process it.
I asked specifically for an example of this happening with times new roman, because that is a default font. Please send me a screenshot of times new Roman not processing

I am wondering if it is behind a hidden tag.
If you click the edit button, what happens?
Ah. I think I'm just dumb with how things works. When you said click edit, I clicked it was all there but when I click on save then it just shows nothing once again.
OP

This means that you are using a disabled tag.
Are you using chapters or tabs by any chance?
That makes a lot of sense. Yeah, I did but now I just took them out and it's working again. Haha, thank you for taking the time to help me out ^_^
Hello Rei,
Great Vibes seems to be 'broken' as well, because it isn't working either. But as I stated with Times, sometimes it works, other times it does the same thing. I never know when I can actually screen shot it. Fortunately, I caught it this time.
Here is the example it showed me:
Here is Times in contrast:
Here is it's example:
As you can see, that's not Times New Roman font styling, its very much the same as the Great Vibes example.
OP

So. As I've said.
Our specialty fonts are broken - have been for a little bit while I haven't had bandwidth to fix them.
Great vibes and Quicksand are those two specialty fonts that I am talking about.
That means when you try to use them - they do not render. The site gives you the next best thing, a different font that is not the default (Arial)
That next best thing is Times New Roman.
This is great vibes:
Quicksand:
This is Times New Roman:
When you use one of the broken specialty fonts (the two you have mentioned in your posts here) it renders as Times New Roman, a default and unbroken font.
However, when you use Times New Roman, it renders as Times New Roman - the font you are trying to use in the last image.
Tldr; Specialty fonts Great Vibes and Quicksand are broken. When you use them, it will render as Times New Roman, because that is a working font that is not the default on site. Times New Roman is not broken, using it will work and render as Times New Roman (because that is what you are asking for it to do).
