Dear community,

I have an issue regarding my font-list property in Figma. It show tweo semibold font weights. In my project I found out, that the SemiBold and also the Semibold have been used. The correct weight should be Semibold. My question is: How can I delete the second weight from the list?

Hey @Sergej_Lust, thank you for reaching out! This looks odd but these kinds of strange font issues are nearly always caused by the use of conflicting font files across teams. This means that editors on a file are using different versions of the font with slightly different sizing or spacing which then affects the file each time it is opened by someone with a different version.

Do you mind letting me know if:

  • the font is appearing twice in the desktop app, browser, or both
  • it’s appearing twice in all files or a specific file
  • it’s appearing twice for any other collaborators or just you

Thank you in advance!

Hi Gayani_S and thanks for your response.

The font weights appearing…
…both in app and browser.
…in all files.
…for any other collaborators.

Thank you in advance :slight_smile:

Thanks for confirming, @Sergej_Lust! Let me check in with the team. I’ll get back to you once I get more information. Appreciate your patience in the meantime.

@Sergej_Lust Update: The team has confirmed that this sounds like a problem with the metadata for that font. We won’t be able to “remove” the style for you and we’d recommend you either install a different version of the font or reach out directly to the font’s developer/font foundry.

Please let me know if this is clear or if you have any further questions!
