Glyphs Export Script no longer works

Scripting
1

I always used this script to transfer FontLab dokuments to Glyphs. Suddenly it stopped working, for all fonts.

I get this message, any idea what it could be?

Will write font to: Traceback (most recent call last):
File “”, line 311, in
File “”, line 304, in main
File "/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/Current/lib/python2.7/codecs.py ", line 351, in write
data, consumed = self.encode(object, self.errors)
UnicodeDecodeError: ‘ascii’ codec can’t decode byte 0xe2 in position 42: ordinal not in range(128)

Do you have the latest version of the script? And can you send me one if the .vfb?

I have this same issue, I’m running the last version of the script. Any idea?

 return text.encode("utf-8")             # encode as UTF-8
UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0x9c in position 102: ordinal not in range(128)

Could you send me the .vfb?

Hi Georg, finally managed to export the file. I’ve removed the opentype features and it worked.
Thanks anyway!
