Hello, we have uploaded a custom font (a WOFF/WOFF2 file) to Appfarm Create, but it does not show in the preview. We can see the font in create, and we have changed the the font for the text in the theme, but it does not show in the preview. Dont know if it needs some time to upload, or could there be another reason it’s not showing up?

We also tried with OTF file, but it is still not working ☹

Hi @AnnaNilsen ,

Could you please share the font file with me? (I’ve sent you a DM with the details) 🙂

Hi @AnnaNilsen ,

The issue is similar to the one mentioned in the previous post and occurs when the font family includes a backspace and a number. I’ve reported this internally as a bug. Until it’s resolved, the current workaround is to replace the backspace(s) in the font family when uploading the font.

I hope this helps!
