Custom font not working when loading via JSON file

Most custom fonts work for me when customizing JSON files. I am trying to load two fonts, Avenir Next World and Avenir Next World Demi. Avenir Next World Works fine. Avenir Next World Demi does not work and defaults to Times New Roman.

 

This is the JSON code I am using for formatting a table. This works fine to set the column headers to Avenir Next World.

When I change the code to this, it does not work and the column headers are formatted as Times New Roman

Both fonts are installed on my computer

I have tried the following in my JSON file with no luck:

"Avenir Next World Demi"

"Avenir Next World-Demi"

"Avenir Next World (Demi)"

"AvenirNextWorldDemi"

"AvenirNextWorld-Demi"

"AvenirNextWorld Demi"

 

Any help would be appreciated.

@amitchandak I have tried everything in that blog already. Unfortunately no solution still.

 

It works if I do "Algerian", "Magneto", "Avenir Next World", etc but not "Avenir Next World Demi".
