[Devel] Problem reading some TTF's with CVS version

[Jacob (=Jouk) Jansen]

Hi all,

With the current version of freetype2 in CVS I have problems reading some
TTF files. An example of a "wrong" file is a SYMBOL.TTF file I just found on
a Windows95 machine.
I use the following code:

             if ( FT_Init_FreeType( &font_library ) )
               return 1;
#ifdef DEBUG
             printf( "Fontfile : %s\n" , filename );
#endif
             if ( FT_New_Face( font_library , filename , 0 , &font_face ) )
               {
#ifdef DEBUG
                  printf( "Fontfile : %s\n" , filename );
#endif
                  return 2;
               }


For most files ( filename ) this works but ...
for some files like SYMBOL.TTF I get to the
"return 2" statement. Since the version in the CVS of 16 December 2002 was
OK, something has to be changed in FT_New_Face (what????)
