  1. font Fantasque Sans Mono Bold 9 in .config/sway/config works fine
  2. swaynag -f 'Fantasque Sans Mono Bold 20' works fine
  3. `swaylock --font "Fantasque Sans Mono" works fine
  4. `swaylock --font "Fantasque Sans Mono Bold" uses a default font

Same. The man page doesn't specify how to use different font styles. Is this unsupported or just undocumented?

Font rendering is configured here https://github.com/swaywm/swaylock/blob/6213fa0a7cac6da1a49f340d4999b9f6f9e82a5c/render.c#L79:L80 and it can be seen that argument CAIRO_FONT_WEIGHT_NORMAL is hardcoded. So, it's not possible to specify a different font weight via config... 😞
