Issue with Bulgarian Cyrillic on fonts

Hello!

I am a community advocate for FOF, Sofia for Bulgaria and we experience difficulties when we want to use Bulgarian Cyrillic in several fonts with the “Stylistic sets” feature, but Bulgarian Cyrillic just doesn’t work. When I try the same in Adobe Illustrator for example - there are no problems. The only solution we’re able to find is to change the font’s core defaults to this type of Cyrillic, otherwise, it is impossible to use the stylistic set in Figma.

Best Regards,

Hi everyone, Celyn from the Figma Community Support team here.

Thank you for continuing to share your feedback and highlighting how important proper support for Bulgarian Cyrillic letterforms is to your work.

I’ve passed your feedback along to the team, and this request remains on their radar.

I’ll update this thread if there’s anything new I’m able to share!

That is a great request, but it seems nobody is considering this as a feature.

We need to have Bulgarian Cyrillic, but I don’t know why there aren’t more people who have written on this topic.

Hi everyone! Sorry for the trouble and thank you for flagging this. This is already on our radar, and our engineering team is investigating the issue further. We don’t have a timeline on a fix at the moment, but we thank you for your patience.

Hi there 🙂 This is an issue, that needs a resolution ASAP. I haven’t had any issues so far with fonts supporting Bulgarian Cyrillic, however now I do for a few days. This reflects negatively on my designs, which I believe happened with the latest Figma update. @Celine_Figma, I rely on your fast assistance in that matter.

Hello @vasil.tashkov ,
Thank you for your feedback! I’ve rechecked internally with the team. Unfortunately, this is a feature limitation that would require a medium amount of effort to resolve it. Though I can’t guarantee an ETA for any improvements now, I would be happy to share your feedback with the team as we continue working to track areas of improvement in Figma. We appreciate your help giving this more visibility!
