Description

Typekit has stopped serving Puritan and Chunk. They should be switched to Google Fonts.

There are at least two Typekit fonts (Puritan and Chunk) which can’t be used anymore – selecting them in Customizer doesn’t reflect in front-end.

Research direction

The issue identifies Puritan and Chunk as Typekit fonts that no longer work and requests switching them to Google Fonts. Start by locating the font-provider definitions and Customizer handling for those font names; done means both fonts can be selected and appear correctly on the front end.
