Combining Font Requests & Using Preload
3 replies · Started by jm1991 on May 31, 2020
Hey There,
Is there a reason why my site is making three different requests for the same font i.e. Source Sans Pro font? Apologies for any nativity, but is there a way to combine those requests into one?
Could I add the preload header in the HTML to tell a browser to fetch CSS and font together to improve performance?
I'm looking for performance wins where I can find them.
Cheers
Hi there,
how many different variants ( weights ) of the font are you using?
Each variation can equal a separate font request.
Yeah, I suspected that may be the case, but wasn't sure. Thanks for confirming.
You're welcome
