I am using the Karla font. When I export to a PDF, all of the colons : (and just the colons) are converted into a white box with an X in it. See attached photo.

Hi, I'm facing similar issues with Karla. First it was the missing colons and now the entire Regular weight is missing. I have tried uninstalling the variables and only installing the static ttf fonts, but the problem persists. Appreciate any help on this! Thanks

Exactly what have you been doing step by step when this happens?

What does the foundry say to that issue?

I styled a doc using Karla. The body text has been styled with the Regular weight. I created a pdf of the document and noticed that all the colons used in the doc were showing up with a box with an x inside (grab attached) When I tried fixing the colons, the regular weight went missing. (Grab attached) All other weights are appearing fine. Havent checked with the foundry yet. Few blogs suggested uninstalling the variable fonts that come with the Static ttf fonts and I tried that too.

I had this problem today. I fixed it by deleting the variable font and installing the "static" ttf fonts instead. They're included in the download package.
