Hello.

Sora-Bold.ttf and Sora-Regular.ttf have the same name "Sora". On Windows, it generate problem with selecting Bold font.

On Windows in Word the Bold style is selected using the Bold button.
So you do not see Bold listed in the font selection list.
This is the same in all MS applications, and LibreOffice, etc. which use style groups (Regular/Italic/Bold/BoldItalic).
This is also why you do not see the Italic style listed in the font list.

For an example take a look at the fonts listed for Arial in the font selector list - no Bold, and no Italics are listed - because those are selected using the Bold and Italic buttons.

When you open fonts in the Windows Font Viewer, the font name you see is actually the style group name (which is confusing) - so it looks the same for all members of that R/I/B/BI style group.
To see what font you are actually viewing you must look up at the window title bar.

Nothing wrong with these fonts regarding the names.
