Hello support team!
I've met a problem testing my variable font on Mac. Installation process freezes and program offers a force quit.
Everything works just excellent on windows.
Firstly I faced this problem uploading the font file on myfonts, it failed a test with the same comment - installation problem on iOS.
Probably there is an obvious solution which I unfortunately don't know? Or do you need more information?
PS I also searched on forum and haven't found any related topics. Sorry if this question have already been resolved.
Thanks in advance!
Borislav

Re: Variable font installation problem on Mac
Unfortunately, it didn't help. Any other ideas probably?
Traditionally, I leave a link to google disk with font and FC project file: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/ ... sp=sharing
Maybe it will be useful if the problem is on the side of the software.

Re: Variable font installation problem on Mac
The only thing I noticed is your font contains spaces in the PostScript Name, which is not allowed.
Other than that, the font looks perfect to me.
If removing the spaces in the PostScript Name field does not solve the problem, I will contact people from Apple and if you give me permission, I will send the font file to them so they can look into it.

Re: Variable font installation problem on Mac
No good news for now.
I would highly appreciate if you do contact people from Apple. I've updated the font on the link above with no spaces in PostScript Name field. You have permission to forward font files to Apple. Thanks!

Re: Variable font installation problem on Mac
I have send the font file to Apple. I will keep you posted.
P.s. not sure if you aware if this, but this forum is open to the world, so it might be wise to remove the link to the files. Or did you only grant access to me?

I checked the link no need to worry it asks for a request for access.

Re: Variable font installation problem on Mac
That is good to know.
My contact at Apple has successfully installed your font. He suggests you file a report through:
https://developer.apple.com/bug-reporting/
Please keep us posted here, and if there is an issue on our side, do let us know.
