Description

I am having some difficulty with Google Fonts on Windows 7 getting extended Latin characters (ěščřžů in particular) to load from the Google Webfonts served version of Lato. I am loading the font within a custom Wordpress theme using the following line:

" wp_enqueue_style( 'lato-font','https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Lato:100,300,400,700&subset=latin-ext',false,'1.1','all');

yet

(note the ž for example works fine.)

Doing some digging around in the Dev Console, I see there is a problem with the files which are being loaded.

clearly some of the _p.woff files are the latin-ext ones, and all of the _p.woff files just load nothing:
