SOLVED Problems with test install



  • Every time that I try to either test install or generate a font I get :

    return s.encode(encoding, errors)
    UnicodeEncodeError: "ascii" codec can't encode character u"\xe6" in position 2: ordinal not in range(128)
    

    and a popup progress bar that says "Collecting Font Data" and will not stop spinning.

    please help :)



  • Connor: my guess is that you have a non-ascii character in your font naming information.

    Could you send me the UFO file? If you wish I have a look at it

    There is a somewhere (I guess in the font info) a non ascii character, as Ben mentions
