Ctrl + B not working in Microsoft office

Hi,

Sorry for my broken English. I’m currently working on a font with 4 weights which is Light, Regular, Bold and Black. My problem is the Ctrl + B (make your text bold) function in Microsoft office (Words, Powerpoint & Excel) doesn’t make the font bolder on bold and black weight. The light and regular works fine.

Any help? Thanks a lot.

You need your style linking set up properly. Read the Naming tutorial (on the Learn page), please.

Hi @mekkablue

I didn’t do any style linking to my fonts. It will auto create the “fake bold” for Light and Regular weight but not for Bold and Black weight. May I know how should I make the Bold and Black weight will create “fake bold” in Microsoft office?

Thank you so much for the reply.

This is explained in the Naming tutorial.
