Japanese fonts list almost freezes

[Tatsuya Fujita]

Hello,

I bought Publisher and tested on Windows 10 Japanese version with a lot of Japanese fonts.

Whenever I try to change the font from the text palette and browse the font list, Publisher frequently freezes.
After some freezes, usually the whole application freeze-ups.

While it is locked, the CPU usage of Publisher is between 65% to 80%.

Is there any option to solve this problem?

Thank you.

Is this still happening in the latest version ?

Unfortunately, it's not solved yet in the latest version.

Could you zip up your fonts folder and upload it here please

Could you provide a list of the fonts, or the fonts themselves?
Are these primarily commercial fonts, or free fonts, or both?

I have seen some popular free Chinese fonts which would not work properly in APub (or many other apps).
So I am wondering if some of these are also free fonts with similar problems.

Thank you for the reply.

I already uploaded the contents of my fonts folder to Paul.

And they are full of commercial fonts and some free fonts, the zip file is about 3GB.

I've installed the fonts on a clean machine and the font list is displaying quickly for me. This is with an empty document.

I wonder if it's worth you resetting the font cache

[Tatsuya Fujita]

Thank you for confirming the issue.
I removed all font cache and now no freeze any more.

Thank you again.

That's good news - thanks
