Hello, I have tried repeatedly to install my local fonts using the Figma Font Helper tool. It appears to have successfully installed but when I return the settings page, it still states ‘Local fonts are currently not enabled. Download an installer to enable local fonts.’
I have tried this on my Macbook and iMac. I don’t have any firewalls to block the installation. I have cleared my cache for both Chrome and Safari and I have rebooted my machines countless times. I have also installed the Desktop version. None of these steps have been any use.
@Katie1, I am using the latest version of Chrome on Windows 10 Pro and have tried everything as suggested by you BUT am still unable to Enable Local Fonts [even in my Desktop App version of Figma].
The only way I was able to get the local fonts to work was by installing them one by one, left clicking the font files. But the next restart they did not work.
Exactly my issue. If I delete the fonts from windows and reinstall, they do appear after a tab reload. Then if I restart my computer, my fonts will be gone from the “installed by you” section. No idea why is this happening. Help, Figma team!
For anyone who’s encountering the same issue on a web browser like Brave. Try turning off your ad blockers for Figma. I found out that that’s causing the issue from my side.
