Different styles of the same font not working correctly.
whatmurder opened this issue · 9 comments
Tried to install all of the Soleil family fonts but only the first one installed is showing up on Control Panel and programs (Photoshop). After deleting the font installed first the font installed second becomes available and so on.
- Both Fonts Installed, Soleil-Light-Italic the only one available
- Deleting Soleil-Light-Italic
- Soleil-Light Appears
Tested this with other fonts and got the same issue.
Same issue here.
I have been playing around with the files in FontForge - changing metadata, format etc. - but no fix found as yet.
If anyone has a solution and cares to share it, it would be much appreciated.
Very strange.
I installed Soleil Book and Soleil ExtraBold Italic and you're right, only one of the fonts shows up in that specific control panel menu.
However, they both show up in the more modern windows font control panel menu:
Additionally, both fonts are available within GIMP, but not in Photoshop.
Exactly the same. Thanks for taking a look though.
Same issue here. Something wrong with font metadata?
Hi I made a pull request regarding the issue please check it out!
Has anyone got the solution of the above? It is still same problem occurring in Windows 10? The font weights are correctly appearing in modern windows font control panel menu but not showing in programs.
@tungwoodboi's fix was just merged into master which should address this bug.
Please uninstall all affected fonts, then download and install them again from TypeRip and let me know if the issue is still happening!
This is still happening with the font Ofelia Display.
Variations like italic and bold are replacing the default weight/style.
Tried to edit metadata on FontForge with no success as well.

This is another error and only occurs with a small number of fonts.
The problem is that some of the original font files of the Ofelia Display font are being named the same in the font information section, so Windows will recognize them as one and will show a "font already exists" error.
The new version of TypeRip does not rebuild fonts but converts directly from woff2 to ttf so the font name information will not be changed.

You can use FontLab, go to File > Font Info > Build Names then save the font. It worked for me.
