Local TTF font not working - worked before

I cannot figure out what to do with the local font issue not showing up on figma. I downloaded the font figma agent for browser. I try this on both desktop app in macOS and browser and cannot get it to work. None of my local fonts work.

 

Can anyone help me? Are local fonts now limited to paid versions of the app??

Hey ​@Gabriella_Lasala ,
You are correct! If you’ve just installed the Font Helper or a new font, the changes won’t appear in Figma right away. Try quitting and restarting the desktop app or refreshing the browser.

@Celine_D oh yea sure you can leave it up. i did review that guide but i didn’t see a note about it needing a machine restart in there. feel free to keep it if it’s helpful! Cheers.
