      woff meta data text descriptions seems to be required. But the font info sheet should not fail so hard... also see https://github.com/robotools/defconAppKit/issues/26

      Somehow something wrote a wrong value somewhere in the font.info, I know this is not helpful. This is not possible with the font info sheet as everything is either validated or normalised when setting into the font info. Does the font info sheet open for this font? You can test where it goes wrong or which attribute has the wrong value with this script: from fontTools.ufoLib import fontInfoAttributesVersion3 # get the current font f = CurrentFont() # to test set a wrong value somewhere # f.naked().info.styleName = 1234 # loop over all attributes for attr in fontInfoAttributesVersion3: # ignore the guidelines if attr == "guidelines": continue # get the attribute from font info getattr(f.info, attr) when # f.naked().info.styleName = 1234 is uncommented you should receive this error message: Traceback (most recent call last): File "<untitled>", line 6, in <module> File "info.py", line 38, in setter raise ValueError("Invalid value ({0}) for attribute {1}.".format(repr(value), name)) ValueError: Invalid value (1234) for attribute styleName.

      Thanks @frederik for this advice. You are right, I have tried to re-use old scripts with RF 3 but without success (I am not very good at that)... I will try to start RF in safe mode and keep you in touch if it solves the problem. Best

      I will add this to the to-do list. The tooltip could refer to the UFO info attribute. Also see https://doc.robofont.com/documentation/workspace/font-info/ for detailed documentation Thanks

      Thanks, now it works. I suggest to insert a tooltip showing the allowed char in the fields. Best, Roberto

      you could set a observer when a font opens / when a fonts will generate a binary and set the value as you wish, this means it kinda atomically. good luck

      That is easy: subscribe to newFontDidOpen and do something with the new font. from mojo.events import addObserver class SetInfo(object): def __init__(self): addObserver(self, "myCallback", "newFontDidOpen") def myCallback(self, info): font = info["font"] print font font.info.copyright = "This is my font" SetInfo() and maybe set this script as start up script in the preferences so each time you open RoboFont the observer will be installed. good luck

      hi frederik I cannot say for sure. I think I changed something in the Name Setting. Either the General Identification fields or the Postscript Identification. I did not change the values with a script this time but "manually". Sorry I cannot provide any better information. jo
