Variable Fonts issue

Hi there,

I have an issue with variable font.
I am trying to add an variable font (Inter Variable, woff2), but in Bricks Builder, do I have to add each font weight and point the font url to same font file?

I can’t make it work otherwise. But in this case, I am calling the same file 8 times (100-800 weight).

Even in this case, I can’t add odd weights, e.g. 450 even though it’s a Variable Font.

I am coming from GeneratePress where it’s possible to just set the font one time and then I can add all the weights. Am I doing something wrong?

Hi :waving_hand: ,
Yes, unfortunately, in order for the font weights to be available in the Builder, they must be created manually.

However, this should not have any impact on the website itself, as the file is always the same and should therefore only be loaded once.

As an alternative to the “fixed” font weights, you can use the font variation settings to use individual weights such as 'wght' 333 or 'wght' 450, and you only need to upload the variable font once (and simply leave the weight as it is).

Hi @timmse!

Thank you for the explanation. That’s very helpful. I’ll use the variation settings :slightly_smiling_face:
