I doubt it is related to that font, so we want look into this by providing an upcoming release for you to test.

It has many bug fixes and improvements, and is almost ready for official release.

We hope to have an update ready within an hour, and we will post a link to it here asap.

Dear Sir Erwin Denissen,

Now it returns "Not enough memory resource are available to process this command."
On clicking anything. Screenshot has been attached for your reference.

[Erwin Denissen]

Did you try the update we provided, version 14.0.0.2889?

Please find the Error report attached.
and i am using the updated version.

[Erwin Denissen]

The error report didn't reveal the exact cause; only that FontCreator requires more resources than your system provides.

Can you please try this update:
FontCreator 14.0.0.2890 (64-bit)

[faisal.quadirey]

FontCreator works very slowly.
I had typed few words for preview given below:
(فد پہلے تھیلے نیلے جیلے پھر تا ثا با بب بح پج بد بر بس بص بط بع بف بق بك بل بم بں بو به بھ بی بے ے)
screenshot shows error.

Gulzar contains so many OpenType layout features that is almost hits the limits of what you can store in a font. A normal font contains less than 100 lookups and subtables, while this specific font contains over 4500. Unfortunately too many for FontCreator to handle in a timely manner. Other font editors simply drop most of the lookups, so the font no longer works as intended. We don't think that is a viable option.

Try to provide a shorter line of text, maybe just a single word, or use the Test Web Font feature to test longer lines of text in a web browser.
