Hello! Sorry for my late reply. Had been busy teaching SVG ...
I found out that three fonts let FontTest.js crash. One is called "CommonBullets", probably imported from my Windows font collection. The other two are self-created fonts, that I exported some years ago from CorelDRAW. I have to try to regenerate them with a newever version of Corel or Macromedia Fontographer. Maybe I can resolve the problem. But thanks a lot, Thomas and others for identifying the problem and providing the FontTest.jar program. Here is my complete list of supported fonts (output from FontTest.jar): ---------- [pb165:~/svg/batik-1.5] an% java -jar FontTest.jar 2003-09-24 17:04:22.034 java[890] Warning: Font LucidaSans-TypewriterBold claims fixed-pitch with 0 max advance! 2003-09-24 17:04:22.200 java[890] Font GB18030Bitmap: in _readBasicMetricsForSize, claims 0 max advance but is fixed-pitch.
