    Hi there. I use pictorico for my site http://dudok.org and it’s an awesome theme. Very happy with it. What I don’t like is that, every time it starts up, it shows the page header in the original font first, before it changes into the font I have selected: Futura PT. That looks unprofessional. Please advise.

    I don’t have this theme loaded so I’m just taking a guess. I think it might be a script that loading slow. I’m also guessing you’re applying the styles with a custom css plugin.

    I think that the original styles are applied then the script hangs for a second and when the script finishes your custom css styles are applied. It only a guess this isn’t my theme and I haven’t played with it. Good luck

    I see that you’re using Custom Fonts on WordPress.com.

    WordPress.com displays content in the theme’s default font first, so no one sees a blank page, such as folks on slower connections. This means that there may be a flash of a different font before the page finishes loading.

    This CSS snippet hides the body text until the custom font has finished loading:

    .wf-loading body {
  visibility: hidden;
}
