The attached font won't work correctly in the editor. STR:

  1. Add font to project.
  2. Create new font file and select the otf file.

Hi @sicher! The ex-info error has been fixed, and that reveals the underlying error: we can't properly measure the height/width of the font. Looking closer, this seems to be because it is CID-indexed. I naively converted "Flattened" the font using Fontforge (and got loads of errors) but then it at least displayed somewhat ok. There seems to be a bug/missing feature in the JDK version we're using that makes CID-indexed somewhat unsupported: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8074562
Renaming this issue to reflect the real error.
