Which Graphic Design software have you found to work well with Variable Fonts?
How are you making use of Variable Fonts for projects, that involve software, that isn't compatible, yet?

- 1Hi. If you need to make use of a variable font in software that doesn't support it yet, then I suppose you could use software that does support it, then convert the text to outlines and export in a vector format, or you could export the text in a raster format, and use in whatever software you want.Billy Kerr– Billy Kerr2023-08-17 08:56:26 +00:00Commented Aug 17, 2023 at 8:56
- yes, indeed. There is even a quite accessible python script "FontTools", that can generate static font subsets from variable fonts.creative-resort– creative-resort2023-08-17 21:09:32 +00:00Commented Aug 17, 2023 at 21:09

So far, I've found:
- Adobe apps seem to have good support.
- Inkscape is trying, but buggy.
- Affinity apps support Variable Fonts since 2024
- There's special interest software, that makes use of VF
