When we try to upload an Asian language font (example: https://codeberg.org/nobles5e/fonts-for-figma-bug-report/raw/branch/main/Medium.ttf ), on Admin > Resources > Fonts page, it takes forever to complete the request.

Hi @Shawn_Lian, Thank you for getting in touch about this. I’m grateful that you’ve shared the download link for the font you’re looking to upload.

It seems that the font may exceed our 20 MB size limit for font uploads. Regrettably, we can’t support the uploading of fonts larger than this limit, and the issue you’re encountering might stem from this restriction.

I tried uploading the font file myself through the browser, and just like you said, it gets stuck without any error message. We’re sorry for any confusion this has caused.

Unfortunately, we currently don’t have any special workarounds to bypass the 20 MB font upload limit.

However, I understand how important it is for you to be able to upload the font to your organization for efficient distribution to your team members. I’ve come across similar feedback and have made sure to highlight your case to our Product team for increased visibility.

In the meantime, you might want to consider the following options:

  • Installing the font locally - Add a font to Figma design
  • Exploring ways to reduce the font file size, like removing any unnecessary glyphs or characters.

While we can’t promise an increase in the upload limit at the moment, we’re thankful you’ve brought this to our attention, and we appreciate your understanding.

I hope this helps clarify things a bit. If I overlooked anything, please let us know.
Thank you once more for reaching out to us.
