Probably a bug in Type Light 3.2

[Besim Karadeniz]

Hello,

I'm testing Type Light and I'm watching following behaviour:

I have a OTF-Font which has a wrong weight-description. While I wanted to change this I loaded this file into Type Light. Changing the Font Weight is no problem but when I save this file as OTF again there are several problems with it.

• When I'm opening the saved file with the Font Viewer of Windows there is nothing to see. No font description and no example text
  
• The file is blocked like a file opened with an another application. But - the file is not opened with any application.
  
• Deletion of this file is impossible because of above behaviour. Strange thing: When I'm restarting my computer the saved file is blocked yet.
  

I have saved the edited file as TTF. This worked but I need the edited font as OTF so this is not a good workaround. I've tested another OTF-Fonts, positively. It seems so be a problem with this one font.

Parameters of my computer:
Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit
Type Light 3.2.0.15

I tested to start Type Light in a compatibility mode of Win XP and Vista and second with Administrator rights but this don't fix it up.

Any hints? I would provide the font for testing purposes if needed. If so drop me a mail to besim (at) karadeniz (dot) de.

This issue has been resolved in update 3.2.016 (7 Dec 2012).

In countries where the decimal separator is a comma, incorrect values were exported in some .otf fonts. With this particular font the values were out-of-range for the operating systems font-viewer, and it 'locked' the font file.
