HI all type geeks!
I have a font with 2 masters - Regular & Bold.
When trying to apply Bold in InDesign with the keyboard shortcut ‘command shift B’ nothing happens! [but it does work when I select it from the font style dropdown].
It only happens by this font, & I set up the masters properly, I gave them different weight values & I linked the bold to the regular.
HELP!!!
Are you using the Adobe Fonts folder?

Yes!
Can you send me the .glyphs file please to support (at) (this website without www). I will have a look.
I sent it to your email.
There’s nothing wrong in your file. There seems to be an incompatibility with how InDesign determines family relations with Hebrew character sets. It works when you disable the Hebrew letters and export again. Not sure what it is exactly though.
It doesn’t work with Adobe Hebrew and Corsiva Hebrew either. But it does work with Arial Hebrew. This is how far I could investigate.
Do you want to help? Can you find out for which Hebrew font families bold style linking works, and for which it does not? If we have a good list, we can perhaps trace the source of the problem more easily.
