e.g. Evil of Frankenstine Shadow, Modern Love Grunge, Really Petshop, Taberna Extras, Whiteley Inline, etc.

Seems to be a regression that occurred between the last two major updates, trying to pin down exactly what has occured.

Seems to have been caused by targeting the Windows 11 SDK, targeting 2104 SDK works fine. Not really sure where to report this issue 🤔

Open as an issue at microsoft/microsoft-ui-xaml#6109 for now, will retarget back to Windows 10 SDK for now.

According to the XAML team this is an intentional change to XAML font family creation and leaves some font's unable to be rendered in XAML now as we can no longer properly specify certain font faces.

So for the time being, we're stuck on Windows 10 SDK! Will probably leave this open until the next Win11 SDK?

Any update on this? :)

None, unfortunately. Microsoft have no intention of fixing it right now, and WinUI 3 itself is massively delayed in open sourcing.

On the plus side, there are essentially no practical advantages to using the Windows 11 SDK either, so being stuck on 10 is fine for now.
