Subject: Re: Font can't be installed in OS X - msg#00008List: fonts.fontforge.user> Has anyone here had a similar problem with a font created by FontForge? > Does anyone know of other validation tools I could try, I use ttx sometimes. If it blows up I know there is either a bug in FF or in ttx. Adobe has a font checker in their AFDKO called spot. Spot is documented to have problems with Mark tables, so again if spot crashes it means there is either a bug in spot or ff. I have a low opinion of most OpenType tools (including my own) In the fonts I tested, the Mac was willing to install them, and they worked, but it just complained about them (I think erroneously). Does Junicode actually fail to install? Or are people just so worried by the comment that they don't even try to use it? ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

I am just opening the font file and generating font without actually making any modifications to the font. But, the newly created font is not able to render some characters properly. e.g, ka + halant was rendered properly with original font, but the newly generated font is not able to render this character properly. What does it mean, any tables or rules are getting deleted? Please see the attached file. I am using fontforge version 20051205, Ubuntu (Dapper Drake) Linux with Pango (1.5.0) rendering engine. I tried with some 2006 version of fontforge also. But no luck. Please help me.

Font Book does not allow to install Junicode-BoldItalic, neither as this single font nor as a family member. Linotype FontExplorer X shows a behaviour I don't understand, but it does not care about Junicode-BoldItalic's tables. It works to drag the font files into the personal or system wide Fonts folder and it works to use Junicode-BoldItalic in TextEdit. Are the (missing) tables that otfinfo did not find so meaningless? -- Greetings Pete War springs from unseen and generally insignificant causes. -- Anonymous ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
