How can I solve the issue of my custom fonts "jumping" back to the fallback font when launching my Webflow site in Google Chrome? I have already tried using .ttf, .eot, and .woff versions of the font, but it hasn't resolved the problem. Any suggestions?

If you're experiencing issues with your custom fonts "jumping" back to the fallback font when launching your Webflow site in Google Chrome, there are a few potential solutions you can try:

1. Font Preloading: Implement font preloading in your Webflow project to ensure that the custom font loads properly before the web page is rendered. To enable font preloading, go to the Project Settings in Webflow, select the Custom Code tab, and paste the following code in the Head Code section:

```html

```

Make sure to replace `'YourCustomFontName'` with the actual name of your custom font, and `'your-custom-font.woff2'` and `'your-custom-font.woff'` with the appropriate file paths and font formats.

2. Clear Cache: Sometimes, cached versions of your website can cause issues with font loading. Clear your browser cache in Google Chrome by pressing `Shift + Ctrl/Cmd + Delete` and selecting the appropriate options. Then, refresh the page to see if the issue persists.

3. Check Font Formats: While you mentioned that you've tried using multiple font formats (e.g., .ttf, .eot, .woff), double-check that you are using the correct font formats and that they are properly referenced in your CSS. Webflow automatically generates the necessary CSS code for custom fonts. Make sure you're uploading the font files to Webflow correctly and referencing the correct file paths in your code.

4. Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS): If your custom font files are hosted on an external server or a different domain, you may encounter CORS issues. Check your server settings and ensure that proper CORS headers are set to allow cross-origin requests for font files.

5. Test on Different Devices: Ensure that the font issue is consistent across different devices and operating systems. Fonts may behave differently depending on the device, browser version, and OS, so testing on multiple devices can help identify any platform-specific issues.

6. Webflow Support: If you have exhausted all troubleshooting steps and the issue persists, consider reaching out to Webflow support directly. They may be able to assist you further and provide specific guidance based on your project and font setup.

Remember to always test your changes in different browsers, devices, and operating systems to ensure cross-compatibility and the best user experience.
