Hello, I was just hoping someone could help me. I am using Glyphs Mini which I absolutely love. It’s so much sexier than FontLab Studio that it’s like going ten years into the future.
We are working on our third tyepface, a hand drawn typeface called Gorilla with very detailed glyphs made from high resolution scans vectorised in Flash (up to 5000 nodes per character (all of which are more-or-less essential for use in high resolution print artwork and signage). The exported .otf font is 1.5MB.
So, I can export the font successfully if I untick the first of the three optional checkboxes…
-
- (unticked) Use Production glyph names
-
- (ticked) Remove Overlap
-
- (ticked) Autohint all gyphs
But, if I tick Use Production glyph names I get this error…
Typecomp Error: List Overflow
Typecomp Error: List Overflow
Typecomp Error: List Overflow
Typecomp Error: List Overflow
Or this error if I tick Use Production glyph names and Remove Overlap)
MakeOTF error
Typecomp Error: List Overflow
I tried reading this post: ‘Troubleshooting a font that does not export:’ https://www.glyphsapp.com/tutorials/troubleshooting-a-font-that-does-not-export/
…but the code that I found doesn’t provide any clues.
Here is the code from the generateFont.command file…

Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance!
