PageSpeed Insight fonts/generatepress.woff2

Good morning, I have done a pagepeed test and on the page I am advised to make this implementation in the syles.ccs:
@font-face {
font-family: ‘generatepress’;
src: url(‘/wp-content/themes/generatepress/fonts/generatepress.eot’);
src: url(‘/wp-content/themes/bridge/fonts/generatepress.eot?#iefix’) format(’embedded-opentype’),
url(‘/wp-content/themes//generatepress/fonts/generatepress.woff2′) format(‘woff2’),
url(‘/wp-content/themes/generatepress/fonts/generatepress.woff’) format(‘woff’),
url(‘/wp-content/themes/generatepress/fonts/generatepress.ttf’) format(‘truetype’),
}
I use the theme child, I also use autoptimizer and I have looked at the guide of this forum
although I have not managed to improve the speed
You know how I can solve this
Thanks
Hi there,
so the issue that google is reporting is there is no fallback font for the GP icons, which there isn't any real fallback for. There is a workaround here that one of our users provided:
https://generatepress.com/forums/topic/adding-font-display-to-css/#post-906253
It simply removes the error - it won't actually make any real improvements to overall pagespeed loading just improve the rating google provides.
In GeneratePress 2.3 - which should be released in the next 24hrs will provide an option to use SVG instead of .woff font file for the icons, which will remove this issue entirely.
