[Resolved] Combining Font Requests & Using Preload

[jm1991]

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
