The program calculates the weights that are missing. Meaning: if you will add a font with only 'Regular' weight, the rest weights is calculated.


I do not understand these two sentences. What do you please mean by them?
If the slider is set so the regular font is the same weight as the bold font and you use the bold font, you then won't see when bond is used as it will be bold on bold.

So every time the weight is adjusted, you have to adjust the weight for each font used. You have to program the font weight adjustment. So lets say a 10% increase in weight is selected. You have to increase the weight by 10% for the regular, bold, bolditalic, and italic as they are used.
