[FIXED] "... cannot be identified as a font file"

I am getting "<Font file> ... cannot be identified as a font file" when I open one font in FC Pro 13.0.0.2678 on Win10x64.

The font opens in Windows Font Viewer, Installs without issue, and I can use the font in Microsoft Word. Not quite sure what to do next, since I use FC to diagnose font problems ...

I will send the font file on a support ticket ...

BTW, I tried this right after a fresh reboot, and got the same results ...

We were able to reproduce the error and have been able to fix the bug. The update is available right now.

AMAZING responsiveness! Thank you so much ... I can now open the offending font with no issues.

I have since noticed some irregularities in the naming of that font (having to do with WWS Family) ... wondering if that was causing the issue ...

No, that is not related.
