Fonstruct fonts won't open in Suitcase Fusion - whats up with that?!?

But I can open it in crappy Font Book on my Mac?

The Fontstruct fonts are TrueType, so shouldn't they open in Suitcase?

It comes up with a font "corrupt error" when I try.. Any ideas why this is happening?

Not sure what's going on here. I just downloaded the Escheresk font face from Fontstruct and it adds just fine to Suitcase Fusion 2.

Thanks, Jim.

I can confirm that several FontStruct users report the same problem.

If we knew what Suitcase thinks is ‘corrupt’ about the FontStruct fonts we could adjust them accordingly.

Hi Gustavo,

The font corruption checking engine is consistently updated, so it's important for us to know which version of Suitcase Fusion they are using.

The most current release, Suitcase Fusion 2 (v13.2.1), adds FontStruct fonts without issue. We are constantly improving our font corruption checking technology, so it is possible that a previous version was identifying FontStruct fonts as corrupt due to .

Sparkie7, what version of Suitcase Fusion are you using?

Gustavo, any more specific feedback that you have would be welcome.
