Re: [ft-devel] Unable to load OpenType font (test case + font attached)

[Tassyns, Bram]

Hi,

I'm assuming that since FreeType now supports fonts with these errors that your question is answered.

However I would like to check if (and why) Enfocus PitStop corrupts the font when optimizing the PDF.

Could you provide me with the original PDF (with font still correct) and the actions you take to optimize it with Enfocus PitStop?

Regards,

Bram

Subject: [ft-devel] Unable to load OpenType font (test case + font attached)

Recently I have come across many fonts embedded within PDF files which cannot be loaded by FreeType v2.4.10.

I suspect Enfocus PitStop is mangling the fonts when the PDF file is 'optimized'.

Attached is the font file (extracted from a PDF) and test case.

Adobe Acrobat and Photoshop are able to load the fonts. FontForge can also open the font, and after 'Exporting to OpenType'  the test case is able to load the font successfully.

I am still trying to debug the problem, but my knowledge of FreeType and font format internals is being stretched. Any insight would be appreciated.

Regards,
