Hi team,

 

I'm wanting to change the font weight for the bold text on my website from weight 700 to weight 600. Right now the weight of all the bold text is 700 but I would like it to be 600 throughout the store/website. Please note I am only talking about bold text (not regular non-bold text).

Thanks so much for your help in advance :).

Hi @jaylan_tahtali,

Because you are importing font Regular, so when bold all will be the same. This can be seen as a bug in shopify's font system.

If you want to use all the font weights, you need to directly import google font with all Styles, it will work fine.

Refer https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Work+Sans , https://i.imgur.com/28AlpXg.png 

Go to layout > theme.liquid file, find ':root' and add code here: https://i.imgur.com/SlGVjpv.png

Hope it is clear to you.

Hi @jaylan_tahtali,

You should choose the font weight you need, not all, in my opinion only need 300, 400, 500, 600, 700.

If you need italic, you can choose to add it.

Hi @jaylan_tahtali,

No, bold only if weight is above 500, ie 600, 700. When you add and change font weight 600, 700 you will see the difference.

Hi @jaylan_tahtali,

You cannot add '</style>' tag here: https://i.imgur.com/lOJrDLw.png

And check the end of the file, if there is not '</style>' tag you can add it, if it already exists you don't need to add it.

Hope it is clear to you.

Hi @lit,

Thanks so much for your response :).

That worked according to my font checker chrome extension, but visibly there is no difference. See below:

I'm trying to get the font to look like the below:

Hi @LitCommerce ,

Thanks so much for getting back to me. I will go ahead and try that. Which styles from the Work Sans family should I select? Do I select every font available there?

Hi @LitCommerce ,

Thanks so much for getting back to me. I've gone into theme.liquid and cannot find ":root" in there.. I have tried control "F" and also manually searching for it but cannot find it. 

 

You can see in my screenshot below that what I see from line 8 down is different to the screenshot you sent me..

 

Thanks for your help 🙂

@LitCommerce Thanks for your response again bro. That didn't work either.. I tried only using the 600 weight font from google aswell.

The text still looks the same

Hi @LitCommerce , hope you are well.

 

I have noticed that the TM symbols used throughout my website have gone a little more bold and darker since updating the code. i compared it to an old theme duplicate version I have just to make sure it wasn't my eyes lol. would you know why that might be and how I can make the TM symbols back to normal? it's also in body text as well not just the headings. thanks heaps 🙂

Hi @LitCommerce ,

Are you viewing it on desktop? Yes, I have tried viewing from both desktop and mobile. The TM symbol only looks darker and bold when viewed on mobile. For some reason when viewed on desktop it is fine. This is what I find very strange and cannot figure out.. 

 

Thanks for your help as always
