Would there be a value in allowing the font-face descriptors (e.g., font-weight, font-stretch) to take two values, defining the range available from the file? If you use range descriptors, then the non-variable fallbacks no longer match the descriptors, and would need separate font-face rules. However, I'm pretty sure that still works with `@font-face` as currently defined, just need to watch the ordering: ```css @font-face { /* fallback normal weight face */ font-family: BodyText; font-weight: normal; src: url(something) format(woff); } @font-face { /* fallback bold weight face */ font-family: BodyText; font-weight: bold; src: url(something-bold) format(woff); } @font-face { /* variable weight font */ font-family: BodyText; font-weight: 200, 700; /* min and max weights */ src: url(something-variable) format(woff2-variations); } ``` So user agents that recognize the range descriptor and variable-font format would download the final file, others would download one or all of the backups (depending on which weights are required). -- GitHub Notification of comment by AmeliaBR Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/498#issuecomment-248194701 using your GitHub accountReceived on Tuesday, 20 September 2016 03:53:44 UTC
