Created attachment 238837 [details] minimal project the minimal example project is attached. Safari 8 inconsistently renders the text either concatenated (without spaces between words) or renders the text in multiple lines by breaking the sentence on word boundaries. ** it's important to run the application in the standalone mode by adding the shortcut to home screen and launching it from home screen.

Created attachment 238838 [details] screenshot of incorrect rendering As you can see the text is rendered in a way that all words look concatenated.

might have been caused by the media query which forces SVG font for webkit as a workaround for previous versions of safari. will look test it without SVG font and might close this defect after that

the CSS was forcing use of SVG font to workaround a bug in previous versions which is not required anymore.
