Test Install failing ... not sure whether UFO Normalizer or not #59

Closed thundernixon closed 5 years ago

thundernixon commented 5 years ago

I've been using UFO Normalizer "on save" in RoboFont for a few weeks.

I'm not totally sure whether it coincided with this or something else, but I can't test install fonts.

When I try to test install, it fails. In RoboFont's Output Window, all I see is:

--------------------
Installing FontName Bold failed
The file is not a recognized or supported font file format.
--------------------

It seems like this could maybe be due to UFO normalizer, based on it citing a format issue.

How might I test whether this guess is correct?

Does it work with the nomalizer on save turned off? I think this is more an issue for Robofont, not for the ufoNormalizer

😄That is an embarrassingly simple step I should have but didn't test.

It didn't work with it turned off, and based on file diffs, turning it off did seem to set formatting back to the non-UFOnormalizer way.

So, this does indeed seem like an issue for RoboFont. Thanks, Ben!
