Hi Eric

I will read later tonight, thx.


If you have time, what is "the font stack" in Squeak?

I know via the font import tool that 'something' is stored in image.
how do we view that something?

The TTC stack....is that the intermediarry between the in image font something and the tools that want to use it?

Thx for your time

Hi Tim,

TTCFontDescription at: 65537  is throwing an Error: subscript is out of bounds: 65537.


So, that is where I investigate next.

 
This is the same issue I had last year. I am not sure my diagnosis was correct (see this thread, especially the final message), but from what I recall TTF uses so-called GSUB records to render code points above 65536 or something, and that the implementation of TTF in Squeak is not set up to handle such records. I might be wrong about that though.
