Missing glyphs

I have a very strange error. I have a small font that contains just the alphabet. In Fontcreator test all of the glyphs show up perfectly but once I install the font certain glyphs (those with more than 1000 points) don't show up at all; the space that the glyph takes up is shown but not the glyph i...

Re: Finding points

The problem only occurs with glyphs with a lot of points. The only the solution is to find the find the contour index and then follow it round point by point until you get to the unmarked rogue point.

Is there any way of fixing this?

I am finding it difficult to find the error point(s). It is possible to get the coordinates (such as for direction or intersecting coordinates)?

Thanks

Finding points

I have some complex glyphs and they have a number of redundant and suspicious points. The problem I have is I am having huge problems finding them so I can fix them. Is there some quick way of finding/going to a point index? I 'think' they are highlighted in green (the manual doesn't mention it), if...

[FIXED] Error message keeps coming up

I upgraded my standard version last night and since then I keep having an error popping up and I can't save my work. I have to quit the application and start again.

Affinity Designer Imports

When I import a composite image from affinity designer I get a negative (black becomes white) where the components overlap. How can I get rid of it? What is the designer equivalent of 'Object -> Path -> Outline Stroke' (from illustrator)? Is it possible to add an addendum to your mini tutorial on im...

[CLOSED] Glyph Properties Dialogue Issue

Hi

If you have the settings fly out (F4) open and you leave the program to go to another program, when you come back all the settings have been lost.

How do you import an image from Inkscape

I couldn't find this elsewhere in the forums. Apologies if it has been answered before. I followed your instructions for loading an SVG image from inkscape and neither importing from file nor copy/paste work for me. The original and the results are below. What am I doing wrong? Thank you. original.j...

Demo version expired within 10 minutes

I downloaded it and ran it and 10 minutes later it expired. Impressive!

I just want to try the features before I buy (I have my credit card in my hand) but apparently I can't.
