Fenrir0921 Posted May 23, 2024 Posted May 23, 2024 Just like you can see in the video. There are at least 6 fonts that have been combined into the same font weight, and I can't tell which font they are. I'll attach the file that involves the font, and hopefully rule it out soon, it's very important to me. 20240523_115500.mp4 font.rar Quote Designer/Photo/Publisher__win11-23H2 Designer__Mac
Alfred Posted May 23, 2024 Posted May 23, 2024 I don’t think this is an Affinity problem. It looks as though the font files are faulty. kenmcd 1 Quote Alfred Affinity Designer/Photo/Publisher 2 for Windows • Windows 10 Home/Pro Affinity Designer/Photo/Publisher 2 for iPad • iPadOS 17.5.1 (iPad 7th gen)

kenmcd Posted May 24, 2024 Posted May 24, 2024 These fonts are a mess. Some have no PostScript Name. In some the PostScript Name is in Chinese (which is wrong). Some have have wrong encoding and language codes. Some have Chinese names in fields marked as Latin/English. It appears that Affinity has made changes to the font name handling (probably as a part of the changes for variable fonts) and it is now less tolerant of these old broken fonts. Seems to be the case as there are now 4-5 of these posts regarding these old Chinese fonts. Wish someone would fix them all. The fact they worked at all in the past is sheer luck.
