Question

Why does Figma alter typefaces?

The top text is the Figma’s version of Poppins. The bottom text is the CORRECT version of Poppins. Even after downloading the Google version, it still shows the apostrophe being off. And other elements of the typeface are like this as well. There are other instances of this.

My question is: WHY? And how do I fix this, its driving me nuts.

Hi there,

I’ve checked internally and found that unchecking “Substitute smart quotes” will keep the text as straight quotes. If you uncheck this option and type, it will display straight quotes instead.

Hope it helps!

Thanks,
Toku
