I really hope that I’m just missing something small. The font Nunito is also in there but it works exactly as intended. It still includes my failed Webfont and FA Free experiments. I am including my test file for anyone to pick apart and hopefully offer some insight into why this won’t work for me. This whole thing seems to be a total dead-end for me, and my frustration level just increases when I read reports of three different people managing to get it to work. I also tried adding the webfont with no change either. Thinking that there could be an issue with the FA pro CDN, I also tried using FA Free… even less success than Pro, since the glyphs won’t even render in the desktop preview. I was initially excluding FA Brands in my experiments, but then added it with no change. If I deviate from the instructions and add Light, Regular, and Solid to the end of the Font Family Names in the Font Mappings, then the pro glyphs will render in the desktop preview but nothing at all on axshare. When I say nothing I mean that no glyphs are being rendered at all, just substituted with system fonts rendered to the appropriate weight. Thinking that somehow RP8 might have tainted things, I tried the settings again on a virgin RP9 project with nothing but a few FA icons and still nothing on axshare or preview. Then I opened the same project in RP9 (hoping for that magic) and nothing on axshare or preview. I initially configured everything in RP8 using the same settings (I’m currently trying with 5.7.2, but I’ve tried using 5.7.1 as well) but FA won’t render on axshare or in desktop preview. I was very excited to see this post with the hope that some new magic had been built into RP9, but this still doesn’t work for me at all… I have not been able to get FontAwesome to work with axshare since FA3 or 4.Ī few months ago I tried this same method to get Font Awesome Pro to work with no success. Best of luck to you all, and please hit reply and let me and the community know how well these instructions worked for you!Ĥ steps to get FontAwesome 5.11.2 FREE + Axure 9 working Click that, and the glyph is in your clipboard, and ready to be pasted anywhere, including Axure! That will show a nice little clipboard icon below each icon. On (it’s the new cheatsheet basically), click the little info icon in the upper right. Pro tip: There’s a kinda hidden but very convenient way to copy the icons off the icons page. So, all that to say… with any luck, now you’re able to do what I do - live on the page, pasting Font Awesome glyphs directly into Axure, and then highlighting the broken thing I pasted and changing the font to FontAwesome Pro or Brands, and presto, now you can publish to AxShare or whatever, and get all the font awesomeness you could ever want!! However, when I changed it to just Font Awesome 5 Pro and removed the Solid part, and just let the font weight value carry the Solid treatment, it worked. The reason I went all caps-locky above was I realized that I had been writing Font Awesome 5 Pro Solid in the Font Mappings open text field for the map to font family field, and that was actually causing the Pro Solid fonts to not render. While you’re there, click the blue + icon in the lower left, and add (ie: the usable on: indicator). Specifically, select these filters: Pro, Solid, Regular, Light, Brands, Webfont, and keep that page open, as you’ll use that in Step 5. Step 4: CSS URLs: - go to that url and get the latest Font Awesome CSS urls. Regardless, once you’ve done that, restart Axure so the fonts will show up in Axure’s global fonts select list. Usually that’s a double-click on each, or a bulk select, right-click install all at once. Step 3: OS Font Install: Go into the folder you unzipped, then into the otfs folder, and install all 4 of the otf font families included. Step 2: Download: - Download and unzip the Pro for Desktop zip of fonts. Step 1: Go Pro: - It’s $60/year, and worth it imho So, after days of head scratching and troubleshooting, here’s how I got all Font Awesome 5 Pro fonts working in both local preview and remote AxShare generated prototypes with Axure 9: Font Awesome 5 Pro is pretty, well… Awesome!! However, getting it working in Axure 9 has been really tough for me.
