Hi there
First time on the forum posting... Just to get it out of the way, I love all the apps and mostly work with Publisher and Photo, occasionally with Designer. I hope a Adobe Lighroom competitor is on its way!
I ran into a strange bug, when starting Publisher it hangs on the screen "loading fonts". Doesn't make a difference whether starting the app directly or opening a file (without the app already running).
I found the culprit but want to report it anyway and try to learn why this happens. I have a peculiar setup (in my garden 🙂 ), I have a Surface Pro 7 with a Targus USB (A) Multi-Display Adapter plugged in from where I run a VGA cable to my monitor. When the adapter isn't plugged in Publisher starts as usual. As soon as Publisher runs I can plug in the adapter and everything works.
I have to shut down the process in Taskmanager after a Publisher doesn't start.
Are you using the latest release version? Yes, Ver. 1.9.2.1035
Can you reproduce it? Yes.
Does it happen for a new document? not applicable
If you cannot provide a sample document then please give an accurate description of the problem for example it should include most of the following:
What is your operating system and version (Windows 10, OSX Mojave, etc)? Windows 10 Home 20H2 Build 19042.985
Any unusual hardware (like tablets or external monitors or drives that may affect things) or relevant other applications like font managers or display managers.
Targus USB Multi-Display Adapter (Model #DOCK110), the adpater isn't plugged in to an external power source.
Hope this helps anyone with a similar problem!
