The problem appeared approximately one week ago.

Please fix it.

Such a problem has arisen before:

https://github.com/google/material-design-icons/issues/1220

@garretrieger Can you fix this?

[simone-desantis]

It's worth mentioning that this issue seems not be there when using the latest build of win7

[simone-desantis]

Also: It is introduced in v142 , v141 works fine.

[garretrieger]

I'm not able to get this to reproduce locally for me, do you see the issue on this test page?

https://codepen.io/garretrieger/full/xxvRgOJ

Also what version of windows 7 are you on?

[simone-desantis]

I am reproducing it in one of the earliest win7 builds: 7600 Here you see a temporary workaround demo: https://github.com/simone-desantis/chrome-font-replacer Here is your rendering:

[garretrieger]

Thanks, since this is only failing on specific versions of windows 7 this seems like it's very likely the same issue as #1220. I'll check the font binaries between v141 and v142 and see if I can spot any changes in ordering of coverage data that would trigger the bug in #1220.

@garretrieger

Is there any news?

[garretrieger]

Can you try this new test page and let me know which of the samples fails to load? https://garretrieger.github.io/font-debugging/index.html

[simone-desantis]

Home and logout base 142:

[garretrieger]

Thanks, this is very helpful! I've updated that page with some additional tests would you be able to check again?

[simone-desantis]

Absolutely:

[garretrieger]

Alright, I've narrowed down the problem to likely being in the CFF table encoding. I've got a temporary fix that I've deployed to our test API and if that looks like it works we can get the fix out for the prod font early next week.

Could you check this test page which includes the updated font from the test api?

https://codepen.io/garretrieger/full/JjgMXza

If the fix worked, then v143 should load without errors.

@simone-desantis If you don't mind me asking... why are you on Windows 7 to which Microsoft stopped sending security updates in 2020?

[simone-desantis]

@garretrieger issue fixed Here the result:

[simone-desantis]

@tomasdev I am not :) I crossed this problem and helped to debug. It's strongly discouraged to use such setup. I am mentioning this as disclaimer in the temporary workaround I made available here: https://github.com/simone-desantis/chrome-google-font-replacer?tab=readme-ov-file#disclaimer-1

Windows 7 Professional Build 7601 Service Pack 1

[garretrieger]

Ok great looks like the fix works. We'll get the process started of rolling this out to prod. Should land in production in a couple of days.

[garretrieger]

The fixed version is now on prod. You may need to clear your browser cache to get it.

[simone-desantis]

I confirm that the v143 is correctly renderd. Just FYI i.e. calendar still hasn't rolled out the v143. Is this in the hands of the google workspace team?

[garretrieger]

I'll check in on that and see if I can get it updated.

[garretrieger]

The fix should be out now for calendar.

[simone-desantis]

Yes it is, I guess that then this is done 👍
