Font Crash in PDN v3.35

[Valen]

When trying to switch to any font above "F", I crash.

I think maybe I have too many fonts for Paint .NET to handle? I did a quick font folder check and I have 338.

I've included the crash file below. Sorry, the Spoiler thing didn't hide it unless clicked, and I couldn't attach it... so... code seemed the best way to go.

This text file was created because Paint.NET crashed.
Please e-mail this file to crashlog@getpaint.net so we can diagnose and fix the problem.

More likely, one of your font files is bad and that is causing Paint.NET to crash.

I recommend uninstalling all non-standard fonts, add them back one-by-one to see which one is causing Paint.NET to crash.

Ouch... that sounds painful!!

So if one font was bad then it could cause most of them to crash? Maybe it's one of those F fonts... I'll start looking there. Thanks!

Remember, you only need to check True Type Fonts (.ttf). Good luck!

Sorry BoltBait can you give me a quick explanation on how loading the fonts can crash 1.5 Gb of ram, please?

Thanks in advance

It isn't necessarily running out of memory. That's just a generic GDI+ error.

As a quick 'for your information', you have no need to worry on that front, we have users with a font count exceeding 7,000 and are still healthily running Paint.NET - that doesn't mean they won't have a small performance drag, though.
