Font Management Issue: Font Preview Not Updating

Post by gregbowers »

Hello

I've run into a peculiar problem with my font management software, and I'm seeking assistance to resolve it. Here's a breakdown of the issue:

Description of the Issue:

When I install a new font or make changes to an existing one, the font preview in the software doesn't seem to update.
The preview continues to display the old version of the font, even after refreshing or restarting the application.
Steps Taken to Resolve:

I've tried clearing the font cache and restarting the software, but the issue persists.
Reinstalling the fonts and restarting the computer also didn't yield any positive results.
System Information:

Operating System: Windows 10 Pro, Version 21H2 (Build 19044.1466)
Font Management Software: MainType 11.0.0 Build 1296
I appreciate any insights or suggestions to resolve this issue. Has anyone else faced a similar problem or can provide guidance on troubleshooting steps?

Thank you for your assistance!

MainType keeps a copy of the old version, but it should also index the new font version as soon as it is installed.
