Hi,

I am using revFontLoad to load a truetype font I created and am distributing with an application. On most OS X systems this works great. On one particular system revFontLoad returns "couldn't load font". Before calling revFontLoad the existence of the font file has already been verified.

The offending system is running Mac OS X 10.4.11 (french). I have at least one other tester who is running a french system and doesn't experience any problems.

Anybody have any experience with this particular error and know what the problem might be?


Trevor,

In the old days, Mac fonts each had a unique ID, and if there was already a font on the system with the ID number of a font you were adding, it would cause strange problems. I don't know if OS X still uses this model, but it may be worth checking into.
