Mac OS X (10.4) Font Book character preview related er... maybe export problems?

Béla Frank

Hello Typophiles,

I've got a little problem.

I've submitted a font to a retailer and everything is OK - except the following message that I just received:

"When I install the font in Mac OS X (I used 10.4), the character preview in Font Book is completely blank."

As I work on PC I not really know what would be the problem. Export setting related? Other?

Could someone please help me or suggest something to try?

Maybe it is a simple problem, but I just know what would cause this.

Many thanks in advance.

Don't know if it can help, but the character preview in Font Book somewhat depends on the "language" of the font. So a korean typeface would show a korean preview even if it contains latin characters too.
Unfortunately I don't know what trigger this behaviour.
