Hello all, I need help fixing the fonts when a google doc is in a different language. Could Someone tell me how to fix this?

Note; I have read another thread about this type of issue,, but I really didn't understand what fixes it

Thanks for any help

Sign into Google. Access your settings on the site and choose the language you want.


[v56+] Type about:preferences#general<enter> in the address box. Under fonts and colors, press the Advanced button. Scroll to the bottom, turn on Allow Web Sites To Choose Their Own.

Make sure you haven't enabled a High Contrast theme in the OS settings.

  • We have seen reports that this can be caused by a problem with fonts like Roboto or Helvetica that

you have installed locally and that might be corrupted or are missing some variants. Also, make sure you allow pages to choose their own fonts and that you do not block remote (downloadable) fonts.

  • If you use uBlock Origin make sure not to "block remote fonts".
