Whenever I use a Variable Font, eg. Inter, in XD in Windows 10 the corresponding weights doesn't show up instead it shows up a list with Regular weight repeated. I haven't face this problem in Mac OS. Please help.

Hi All,

I would like to inform you all that these variable fonts are not supported yet. Though it's on the team roadmap and yes the best answer would be to install separate font weights separately for now.

We will let you know if we have more updates on this in the future.

Thanks,

Harshika

Does Adobe XD support variable fonts yet?

Same problem here. One year later, and still no fix.

Hello,

To be noted, Figma already show variable weights for example for Inter font, installed on windows 10 locally.

It's a "software issue" not a "logic issue".

Adobe, please fix.

Just try to find another source of download!

Look in Google open fonts for Designed by field and find designer who developed this font.

Then searh designer name. Best source of course is from original designer website!

Hello,
I am having a conflict problem with the "Roboto" font. I can't uninstall it from windows (Windows is not letting me delete) and consequently it is causing problems in my adobe fonts. Does anyone know the solution? Thanks

Hi Cristiano,

We are sorry for the delay in response. Actually, this is more of a windows bug instead of XD. I would suggest try installing separate font weights separately and see if that helps. We also had a similar discussion happening here: https://community.adobe.com/t5/adobe-xd/text-variable-font-issue-in-xd-windows/td-p/11001813 Please join the discussion for more updates.

Hope it helps.

Thanks,

Many fonts (google fonts) are broken now on XD. Can't use font weights show only regular. Other adobe programs Ps Ai Id work fine with them. XD latest version (37.0.32.10) Windows 10 64. This is very big BUG makes XD unusable!

Hi!

Can you review the date, time and size of this files?

I'm pretty sure that its 3 values are the same, and actually, are the same file.

This it's what happened to me:

It's a Google Font problem (and Adobe XD issue)

Don't get me wrong, I love XD. But why the hell you don't fix that typo problem after that many many updates?

Support, please, please don't ask me about the font i want to use, my settings e.g. ... I'm sure you do a lot of testing before you release a new version of XD - so it seems obvious you know about that problem, right? Why isn't it possible in 2021 to show all options of a font how they should be shown? (see screenshot)

Adobe wants to stay the first adress for all kinds of designers - typo is one of the most important parts of that! Please fix that!

Hi there,

We're so sorry to hear about the trouble. We can surely escalate this further and share feedback with the team however we'll definitely need a few more details for investigating:
