I’ve noticed that OpenType features (ligatures, stylistic sets, etc.) show correctly in Figma’s Design mode, but they don’t appear in the published website when using Figma Site.

Is this a known limitation/bug, or is there a workaround to ensure OpenType features are preserved in the published output?

Design mode (notice the single-storey a)
Published site (all OpenType features are ignored)

Hi ​@Pierre_Marly,

 

I understand you're noticing that OpenType fonts display correctly in Figma Design but don't appear on the published website when using Figma Sites.

 

Currently, custom/local fonts are not supported in Figma Sites. You can see this limitation in the Supported tools between Figma Design and Figma Sites. "Google Fonts" are supported in Sites, and you can access these directly from the font dropdown in your file. Please consider using these as an alternative.

We understand how useful custom fonts would be for Sites. Our product team is already tracking similar feedback, and I've added your post to that report for them to review.

 

Thanks,
