Hello Typekit Fonts, Happy Holidays! I was curious if you had a solution to prevent the original fonts flashing before your fonts load? The typekit fonts load, but the fonts without the plugin show first for a split second. Thank you for your help and a great plugin! Luke Hi @luke-carl , The delay is know as FOUT (Flash of Unstyled Text). Please see http://blog.typekit.com/2016/07/28/changes-to-web-font-serving-on-typekit/ for details. Typekit offers CSS font events if you’d like to fully control this yourself: https://helpx.adobe.com/typekit/using/font-events.html James Thanks for the reply James! And happy holidays! I will try to implement the CSS font events in the upcoming days. If I have any questions, I will let you know. Thanks again for getting back to me, Luke Worked great! Thank you for the help, and Happy New Year! Luke
