Missing Google Font

[paul.maechler]

We like to use "Saira Extra Condensed" for a Web Project.
This is an official Google Font. But it is not working for me.
https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Saira+Extra+Condensed

This Font is not in your "Google Font" Tool.

What can I do ? Any chance to manually add this Font ?

Thanks
Paul

You can manually add the font by editing the googlefonts.json file in the program folder.
Note that I cannot provide support on editing this file, this is for advanced users only.

I did what you said and edit googlefonts.json.
For me it looks right now. Your Google Fontmanager is recognizing the new Font "Saira Condensed" with all its variants and shows the font in preview window.
But under "Websafe Fonts" only one is listed. The "Bold" version
Also on the web it is not working. A "Time Roman Style" font ist displayed.

What am I doing wrong ?

I'm sorry, I cannot help you with editing the file. For me, that may also take a lot of time to configure this correctly.
