Good morning guys,
Tal Leming’s cookbook got me into the idea of streamlining family creation by using a single external feature file in multiple fonts (and the web designer in me has a fetish for compiling multiple files into one upon export, so it seemed like a great fit).
Now since 2.4.2 implemented include(); support, I tried it out right away, but am getting some strange results. When I compile before export, everything seems fine. When I try to export, however, I get the following error:
If I disable my user-created kern feature, the external calt feature file and a custom feature file I’m trying to include export and work perfectly. As soon as the custom kern feature is enabled (even if it only contains one simple rule), I get the error message, which can also look like this:
The ss01 feature only contains 20 lines, btw…
The strange thing is, even if I use a .glyphs file I saved before I tried implementing the includes (even files that are several months old), I get the same error, and can only export if the kern feature is disabled. If I try exporting the same files in 2.4.1, though, they work, which makes me think this is all a coincidence and that there’s another problem at work here that has nothing to do with the includes.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!! Thank you in advance,
Carl
