font weight medium not bold enoughtl

[Lucascoorek]

When loading medium font to a browser throught css, medium font in not bold enoughtl.
CSS:

@font-face {
    font-family: PlusJakartaSans;
    font-weight: 400;
    src: url("/fonts/PlusJakartaSans-Regular.woff2") format("woff2");
}
@font-face {
    font-family: PlusJakartaSans;
    font-weight: 700;
    src: url("/fonts/PlusJakartaSans-Bold.woff2") format("woff2");
}
@font-face {
    font-family: PlusJakartaSans;
    font-weight: 500;
    src: url("/fonts/PlusJakartaSans-Medium.woff2") format("woff2");
}

This is how it looks in the browser:

Medium font is almost identical to regular.

It looks right based on the weights.
Regular (400), Medium (500), Bold (700)
What is missing is the SemiBold (600).
When SemiBold (600) is added it looks like this:

I think that may be what you are looking for.
Not sure why there is no SemiBold as it is very easy to add (like I did in just minutes).
Perhaps you should re-title this post as a feature request for a SemiBold (600) weight.

@kenmcd How did you get the above weights? Could you please share this?

I just added an instance in the .glyphs file.
Don't remember if I even saved it.
I can take a look tomorrow.
What are you looking for - TTF, WOFF2 ?

Ahh okay, I tried doing that but it didn’t work.. I’m looking for TTFs

Here ya go - SemiBold Regular and Italics - with TTFAutohint.
I just did a quick check to make sure the names are correct and they install.
Seems to be OK.
Let me know if there are any issues.

Hi, this font is awesome!
Would it be possible to share the SemiBold also in WOFF2 and WOFF?

I agree. These are really nice fonts. Just need a SemiBold weight added :-)
