The example I provided meant to illustrate the referencing element. My point wasn't about UA not trying to apply 'wdth' settings to a fallback font - like I said in the example description, my choice of a condensed variable font as a fallback is based on my prior knowledge that the primary font I want to use is going to be used with the width settings of 70%. However, the issue here is that my fallback font doesn't support the same range of weight variation - primary font supports font weight 100 .. 900, while a fallback font only supports 300 .. 600. The particular paragraph of the spec I quoted speaks about axis values (which is not the same as axes present or missing). My concern is that, as currently specified, a weight setting value of 700 defined for a primary font would be completely ignored as out of range for a fallback font, resulting in using the default value of 400 (regular weight), where the ideal outcome would've been clamping the weight settings and using the maximum weight of 600 supported by a fallback font. -- GitHub Notification of comment by vlevantovsky Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/2221#issuecomment-380035212 using your GitHub account
