Are OTF fonts supported? #54

Closed sidola closed 3 months ago

sidola commented 3 months ago

Hi, I'm trying to change the font to an OTF font but it seems to be quietly failing. Is there a limitation on what font formats are allowed? All of my TTF fonts work fine.

Which font are you trying to use?

sidola commented 3 months ago

https://www.dafont.com/akira-expanded.font

Using the config value "FontFamily": "AkiraExpanded-SuperBold"

Edit: Found another random OTF font which does seem to work (https://www.dafont.com/lemon-milk.font), the only difference seemingly being that it uses spaces instead of dashes in its font name.

Try "Akria Expanded" or "Akria Super". Fonts will be in a UI picker in v5 to make it easier to find them

Huh, yeah "Akira Super" works, as well as "Akira Super Bold", meanwhile "Akira Expanded" doesn't work. Interesting. Thanks for the help!
