otf file cannot be opened on Windows7 #12

Closed strrchr closed 6 years ago

strrchr commented 9 years ago

All ttf files are OK. And otf files of https://github.com/powerline/fonts are OK. But otf files of this project cannot be opened on Windows7. Does anyone else has this problem?

@strrchr Sorry about this yes there is a problem. I ran into this a week or so ago.

Windows has trouble installing fonts with internal font name longer than 31 characters. If you have fontforge you can try to regenerate with a shorter name or you would have to wait for a patch (I need to regenerate all the fonts with names that work on windows and give an option to the patcher to limit to 31 characters)

I assume you were seeing something similar to this: selection_23_06_15_09 38 32_367x168_001

OKay so it is not related to just the filename. I will have to take another look. the ttf fonts seem to install okay on windows (so far)

not actually fixed (accidentally marked as fix in a commit)

This is no longer an issue (except for font 3270),

tested opening the following fonts (otf version):
