Adobe webfonts

[mr.do]

Hi guys,
Is it possible to have multiple weights (e.g. regular, bold) of a single font family when using a font activated through Adobe and referenced via a provided .css link? I can only have one weight at a time… it's driving me crazy.

ahh

i think if you use a font, and with css you just say font-weight: bold;

then it just makes the font a little thicker, but its not the same as when you actually use the bold font version of this font.

however, if the font is a variable font, and it has an axis for how bold it is, using that axis will create the real version of that font. not the artificially thicker one.

so in case you have a variable font at hand, you could then create multiple textformats in "textformats" and apply them wherever you want.

if adobe gives you multiple font files, one for each weight, then you have to insert them one by one.

however, are there any instructions from adobe's side, where they say "just import this ONE file and then use this css for this font weight" and so on?

Or are there any instructions on the adobe font family website that say "this is how you import all weights all at once"?
