Re: [ft-devel] Regression issue - CFF

[suzuki toshiya]

Just I've checked Adobe Reader 5.0 on Mac OS X 10.3,
it displays the text (as attached picture).
However, it makes Preview.app (2.1.0 v211) crashed.
Also, font previewer of Mac OS X 10.3 does not show
anything for test.otf.

Should I ask Adobe experts about if this is a regression,
or, appropriate behaviour to prevent some vulnerability
issue?
