For sbix to work in Photoshop, these criteria must be fulfilled:
- The sbix glyphs must contain outlines as well, even if it is only two tiny paths. They define the cropping bounding box in Photoshop. If there are no outlines, everything is cropped, and you do not see your pixel image.
- The font must be installed in the system (e.g., in FontBook). The Adobe Fonts folder will not do.
- After each font installation, you must restart Photoshop for the sbix fonts to be recognized.
