[TextMeshPro] <font> rich text tag not working

Hello,

I am trying to get the rich text font support working. If I use the following input, with any of my fonts, I always get the following output, but with no font actually changed.

Input
<font="fontAssetName">string</font>

Output
<font="fontAssetName">string

I am referring to the information found here http://digitalnativestudios.com/textmeshpro/docs/rich-text/

Any help would be aprpeciated
Thanks

 

It appears as though it's failing with every font asset that I have personally created. The font assets that were included with the TMP install work.

I don't know what would cause this behavior though.

 

Well, for anyone else stumbling across this, I figured it out. There is a special folder that my fonts must be placed in.

Thanks

 

thank you for this!

 

Thanks!! This is answer I am finding

 

I would like to add on this, it has to be TMP pro text field. If this isnt working for you please check that if you are using old text like in my case( most things worked on old text like color, size etc. but font).

 

Could this please be added to the documentation? A google search eventually took me here but it's not at all obvious from this page.

Took me a little while before i found this. it saved my butt
