And still the tools don't work, but which tool?
By Paul Flo Williams
It seems that, whenever I get close to doing something interesting in fonty land, a tool fails.
I’m pleased to see that the Open Font Library is now accepting uploads again but I can’t see my first font, Segment14.
I’m using Firefox 3.6.17 on Fedora 14, and it stubbornly refuses to show up as a web font. As far as I can see, every other one of the 36 fonts on the site displays correctly, but Segment14 shows up as the fallback serif.
Christopher Adams took a look for me and says that it works just fine on Safari and Midori, which suggests that the fault lies with Firefox, but I’m left wondering which bug I’ve tripped over.
This is bug 789283 on OFLB’s Launchpad, in case anyone has any clues.
