Description Kalytis 2022-12-17 10:29:07 UTC 
Description:
I'm using EB Garamond, downloaded from Google Fonts. When I try to type text in bold, it shows on the LO document, but not when I print it or transcript it in PDF. From what I've seen on forums, it's a lack of support of variable fonts.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Use a variable font
2. Put some text in bold
3. Try to print it/convert into PDF

Actual Results:
Text that was put in bold doesn't show as bold.

Expected Results:
Well, it should be pretty bold.


Reproducible: Always
