Faux Bold (Ctrl + B) Display issue, Windows - Miscrosoft Office Powerpoint and Word.

Hi, has this issue been resolved?

Hi @bulletfactory

We have recently changed our brand font to Sora Light - beautiful font - and have rolled it out to all employees now to use in their presentations and docs. We are now experiencing the same faux-bold issue (We are using the ttf version of Sora) - I was wondering if you have found a solution/workaround for this? (besides telling people not to bold it that way ;))

Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated :)
Thanks
Dom

Hi Dom - We did not find an effective work around.

In my exploration, I opened all the various weights in a font design program called Fontographer, and made naming adjustments to the meta data so CTRL + B did select the proper weight. While that worked, it meant installing a custom version of Sora which wasn't an effective solve.
