![]() ![]() I do not see a way to download the custom fonts once uploaded in the UI, either.ĭo you work for Figma, or are you providing blunt and sarcastic responses to this community for free? If the latter, I will open a support ticket about this, since this is obviously a dead end. I expect that this is due to copyright concerns, rather than a reluctance to further develop the API. I appreciate your feedback and prompt reply but my point remains: the font appears to be the only element of the design that we can’t access via the API. We expect to have hundreds of existing clients consuming the application by end of next year. This is a commercial grade SAAS, not a personal web page. But it’s another point of failure and uploading to an S3 bucket is more technical than most CX designers are comfortable with.Įrm… not an option. ![]() “have the designer provide the link to the font somewhere”Ī good suggestion and this is already the workaround we are implementing. Our designers are restricted to font sets the client specifies, often proprietary assets - or do you think we should we tell CocaCola to use Roboto? Or you don’t understand how fonts work on web. “they would be desktop fonts which are useless on the web” Look forward to your response and appreciate any advice you might have! I want to fetch them at build time, along with the rest of the theme. Use the time axis to alter the appearance of vector shapes, adding movement and motion to your icons. Use icon fonts to add animation into your designs without relying on other technology. TL DR the fonts do not belong in our codebase which is a brand agnostic, white label application. Variable fonts support in Figma allows you to broaden the possibilities of your designs and typography with a wide range of font styles and features. The intention is that our design team can produce a design system and a new client can be onboarded without the need for further work on the codebase. This means we will have to add each new client’s fonts to our application codebase, requiring dev time and a product release, new version, etc. The one thing we are not able to get from Figma is the font. Literally all styling control comes from this file. ![]() Each brand has a Figma file, which follows strict design system (of text, buttons, inputs, etc in addition to some more complex components) and we are extracting everything from spacings to font weights to component dimensions from the Figma design. We connect to Figma in the release pipeline to download the client’s “theme”, which is bundled into the build. I am creating a white label web application. ![]()
