Issue Description

I'm experiencing an issue with Arabic Google fonts in Figma. While Arabic text displays correctly in the design workspace, it reverts to a default font in Play mode. Importantly, English text using the same font renders perfectly in both workspace and Play mode.

Evidence

I've attached screenshots showing:

  1. Arabic text appearing correctly in the workspace
  2. Arabic text reverting to default font in Play mode
  3. English text ("coming Soon") displaying correctly in both modes using the same font

Technical Impact

This issue severely limits Figma Sites' usability for Arabic-language projects. I have excited to try Figma Sites, but this limitation is disappointing and will likely cause you to lose many Arabic-speaking users.

Request

Please prioritize fixing Arabic language support in Figma Sites as soon as possible. This would make Figma truly inclusive for designers working with Arabic content.

Thank you
 

 

Thank you for posting this, I'm having the same exact issue and it will immensely limit my usage of Figma sites
