Hi, Thank you for helpful comment that you can recontact with the bug reporter. At present, I'm a maintainer of ftmac.c (although I'm not the original author of it), so the limited permission for me to use the font during the debugging activity would be sufficient.

I see, it's the exact point what I was interested in. I think you would agree FreeType2 should report 7 faces are available, not 8 faces, if it's possible to check without expensive cost. >While tracking this down I created some simple debug output that might >help answer your question as to face count being wrong. I can provide >the modified ftmac.c if you want to see where these calls come from. >Most is obvious. The log I have is as follows. Attached log is quite helpful. I have no sample fonts including multiple FONDs, but the font you reported has multiple FONDs. The sfnt_id for the 3rd face (which cannot be opened) looks like as if it's normal value, but GetResource() cannot open it. Thus, to exclude the 3rd face during the counting of available faces, we have to call GetResource(). Yet I have not evaluated the additional latency, but the repeating the parse of FOND for each faces and use GetResource() for each sfnt_id may be slightly too expensive. I will leave the unexpected behaviour of count_faces() including broken faces and apply your minimum workaround to avoid the crashing. So, you don't have to negociate with the original bug reporter about this issue. BUT, due to fragile Carbon since Mac OS X 10.5, I'm going to replace Carbon-dependent ftmac.c by Carbon-free support for legacy MacOS fonts. The Carbon-free have to parse the internal of resource fork by itself, so the font that caused this issue may cause different problem in Carbon-free impplementation. So I want you to negociate with the original bug reporter to give me the font, to prevent the issue in future release of FT2.
