You have a bad font. Have you added any fonts recently?

You have a bad font. Have you added any fonts recently?

Or installed any software that may include fonts?

[wookietv]

nothing was installed that i'm aware that would install fonts... how can i find out which font it is?

thanks

[Simon Brown]

Do other programs that use fonts crash? And when did this problem start?

[wookietv]

i found the font that was broken... deleted it and don't get the error anymore.

i only noticed it in 3.30, but not sure if it was there before then.

maybe the error file it creates in the future can tell what the actual font is that causes the error? is there somewhere i can add as a suggestion, or will it be read here?

thanks

[Simon Brown]

is there somewhere i can add as a suggestion

Post a new thread in GD&Q requesting it.

Edit: Although from what I know, it's impossible.
