Font Forum

You should have seen a trial dialog which explains only a subset of the characters will be saved: However, no worries. During the evaluation period you can save the full font project. And as soon as you have bought a license, you'll be able to save the full font.

That is indeed the best solution for now.

We did indeed set the limit of characters in the preview area to 255, as with very complex fonts (you know what I'm talking bout), it would become so slow.

I'll see if we can find a better solution, so it will only truncate text when displaying complex characters.

Thank you for your feedback. It helps us understand what people like about our software, and where there is room for improvements! When we first released FontCreator over 15 years ago our goal was to provide affordable font editing software which provides full control of all internal tables. So Font...

This bug has been fixed with the maintenance release available since July 2nd, 2013.

Could a future version of Scanahand support colour fonts? It could be possible, but we'll first have to wait for the specs.

We will most likely release another maintenance release later this week, which will be more strict, to ensure code pages are only considered functional when most of the relevant characters are actually located in the font.

You solved it before I could even provide support, but I'm glad you've found your way into FontCreator! The reason why FontCreator detects the font contains characters from Windows Codepage: 932 (Japanese Shift-JIS) is because numerous Greek and Cyrillic characters are part of that codepage. Actuall...

If High-Logic implements the colour fonts tables, could High-Logic consider producing a software facility so that each of those unmapped glyphs could become named by entering .fill in a textbox somewhere and clicking a button please? We will first have to wait for the specs before we can oversee al...

Confirmed, and fixed in version 7.0.1.456, released just a minute ago. Although there is nothing wrong with the font file (technically speaking), it seems Microsoft Word refuses to process any kerning from the kern table if it detects one or more of the glyphs within a kern pair is not mapped to a U...

If this extension becomes part of the standard, it will most likely become available on numerous platforms.

I'm glad to know it worked!

Enjoy our font manager!

They should be in the same folder, but there is one exception. It is also accepted if the PFB is one folder up.

The current version of FontCreator (v7.0.1.436) introduced a bug that causes a crash when you use the Search functionality. This bug will be fixed in the next upcoming release; expected within a couple of days.

Over the years numerous people talked about Color Fonts , and there have been several experiments with this, but so far no adapted standardization.
