There is currently no option for this, because most fonts do not support this.
Does this actually work for Arial in Affinity?

So, even for Arial you can use all option loo different?
Then maybe they convert the text to vectors, because in HTML this does not work.

That I don't know but when it comes to fonts

You have to have all the different weights seperately

So

Arial-Regular.ttf
Arial-Bold.ttf

and so on....

WWB does support named font weights.
For example, 'Arial Extra Bold'

All Google Fonts work like this.

Then it should be possible right?

If there is an 'Arial Extra Bold' then it should also work with WWB.
However, I am not sure if the font will be web safe.
On my system, the font does not exist.
