Some fonts screwed up in Google Chrome, but other browsers OK

Thank you Chris M.
Clearing the cache has fixed this problem, so it appears I am the only one seeing the errors, which is a great relief.

I have been having the same issues. I develop websites for many clients and after an update I often hear about how they can’t see the updates and/or the website is all messed up. [a lot like the screenshots above] Which tells me it’s not just my cache but theirs as well, and probably any other person who visits the website.

I so confused… Is this a Web Designer” issue or GoDaddy or global issue?

I have also tried refreshing, hard reset, reloading the page, clearing cache in settings and sometimes it works, but most of the time it doesn’t. I have 4 browsers on my computer and they all show the same mixed up results, so I was leaning towards it being a server cache issue, instead of the browser cache issue. I emailed my service provider asking questions, but did not receive a reply back from them.

Usually it resolves its self after several hours to 24 hours, but this isn’t a solution when clients are questioning you about why their website is a mess. One even yelled at me and I had no answers to give him except to wait it out to let it take care of itself. He didn’t like that answer too much and I didn’t blame him either.

Change (non-)service provider. With mine I can purge the server caching immediately.

Where would I find the option to purge my server caching?

If you are with GoDaddy then I am sure there are Help pages for it...

The only other suggestion would be to publish twice.
The first time with

<meta http-equiv="Cache-Control"content="no-cache, no-store, must-revalidate"/>
<meta http-equiv="Pragma"content="no-cache"/>
<meta http-equiv="Expires"content="0"/>

added to Utilities > Web Properties > Website > HTML Code (head).
This ought to ensure the current server pages are fetched regardless of browser or server caching.

After a suitable period (when the client nods sagely, republish with the META labels removed.

I followed your instructions, but unfortunately, this hasn't worked either.
Do you think it has anything to do with my free SSL account with Cloudflare?
Or can you think of any other things I can try?
I even tried uploading the website the slow way. Share--> Publish--> Settings: Fast Publish (Only changed files).
I'm also wondering if website visitors are seeing the website all messed up just like I am?
I used www.GeoPeeker.com to check, and it looks like they are.

I use a free SSL certificate and Clourflare and have no problems.

We need a link to your site.
"all messed up" is more likely publishing to the wrong place.
