[FIXED] Error: font contains too many OpenType features
On exporting an error occurred i,e. The font contains too many OpenType features. Try to reduce the number of lookups, subtables, and rules.

Re: Error: font contains too many OpenType features
It seems that font is pushing the limits of what you can include in the OpenType layout feature tables. FontCreator uses its own specific way of optimizing such data, and somehow it can't cope with the way the data is provided in this font. We will see if we can further improve our algorithm, but since this is a very rare font, it is not likely many people ever encounter this issue.

We have been able to fix this issue with the update we just released. Just be sure to enable Optimize storage of OpenType layout features prior to exporting the font.

Thanks Erwin Denissen now its exporting.
But after exporting font only works in Adobe Photoshop, not working in InDesign & Illustrator.

FontCreator is the one and only font editor that can do this, so we are glad to know it works!
Adobe has fixed numerous issues related to their font support, so be sure to use the most recent versions of their suite.
If it still fails, then better contact Adobe, so they can fix the bug(s) inside their software.

It seems the original font also fails to show correctly in Adobe software due to a problem with Adobe's shaping engine.faisal.quadirey wrote: ↑Sat Aug 27, 2022 5:24 am But after exporting font only works in Adobe Photoshop, not working in InDesign & Illustrator.

Re: [FIXED] Error: font contains too many OpenType features
We would also like to mention the fact this font has so many OpenType layout features, that is requires the usage of extended lookups. Such lookups were introduced back in April, 2001 as at that time OpenType Version 1.3 was released. Needless to say it is crazy that it took more than 20 years before a font editor actually is able to open and export such complex fonts.
