Finding an export options for instance export of a variable

[SCarewe (Sebastian Carewe)]

Since testing was mentioned, I did my favourite form of testing: waiting for a client to report a bug. Adding the empty fvar leads to faulty PDF export when using the TTFs in InDesign on macOS.

Issue with Proper Mark Positioning in Excel Using Decomposed Structure

I just ran into a problem with this. Or, rather, a client did, who was using the TTFs on macOS, in InDesign. This is the result of a PDF export from InDesign (21.2) on macOS, using a static TTF with an empty fvar table: [image] Instead of, well, the correct font showing. Opening the PDF in Acrobat shows all sorts of errors. I of course advised my client against using TTFs on macOS. It works fine with the OTFs.
