Inter changed unexpectedly

[lkatkus]

Describe the bug

Inter font changed unexpectedly at somepoint in the last couple of days.

Expected behavior

Expect font not to change

Screenshots

Before

After

Additional context

I'm using nextjs next/font/google , but believe that something changed with the font itself, as this can be reproduced by directly importing font without nextjs.

Thanks for opening the issue.

We recently updated Inter so we're now serving the latest version, which includes Italics, #7776.

We received a lot of requests to update this family #7661, #3429

Cool! Thanks for the clarification.

I'm sorry but if you want this you'll need to self-host. Google Fonts team regularly updates fonts in the API, the millions of websites that use the API therefore get force-updated fonts.

I noticed that my Inter variable embed URL has stopped working. It now sends a 400 error.

https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=Inter:slnt,wght@-10..0,100..900&display=swap

I believe this was the default URL when you clicked Get font > Get embed code on the Google Fonts page.

Here's a link to all GitHub repos that use that embed code.

Same error.. I can't deploy my project anymore. What's the best solution?

Google Fonts has updated their embed code/URL to reflect their updated italics.
