As titled, there doesn't seem to be a filter for what axes are available for a given font without clicking into each separate page, which is a pain when I'm looking for a font that has width variability.

Without a filter to easily identify available axes for a font finding one with width variability can be tedious. One workaround is to use font management software or online platforms that provide detailed information about font attributes, including axis variations. These tools often allow you to filter fonts based on specific axis characteristics, such as width, weight, or optical size. By utilizing such tools, you can streamline your search process and quickly identify fonts that meet your criteria for width variability.

Hey fellow font enthusiasts,

I'm diving into the world of Variable fonts, finding it both exciting and a tad frustrating. Does anyone know if there's a way to filter searches based on available axes for Variable fonts? Right now, I'm specifically on the hunt for fonts with width variability.

Navigating through each font page individually to check out the available axes feels like a chore. There's got to be a more efficient way, right? Any tips or insights you've got would be a lifesaver!

Thanks in advance,

M

Hey,

Totally get your pain, It would be a game-changer if there was a filter to sort by available axes, especially when scouting for specific font variability. That direct search would save so much time rather than diving into each page. Hoping they consider this in a future update!
