You can try, but that will not work since it will not configure the families, you have to add them manually.

What's wrong with my corefonts .font and .otag files?

... any news on this? I'm very anxious to try the "RetroPlatform Player" mentioned in Amiga Future.

On the Amiga Forever homepage there is a press release dated December 18th concerning the "imminent release" of AF2008.

I know, two months is nothing in Amigaland

I have installed and copied to Fonts: the core fonts but i cannot install the cyberbit.zip font.. i don't understand how can i install it.. with typemanager it didn't show the cyberbit.zip in the requester so i cannot install them..

Where should they copied to ? in fonts: ?

I tried to run owb and i get no allert request but i have the problem that i cannot see all the text in the site like amigans.net or iksnet.it.. i see only the text inside a news but not the text in the title thread.. is this caused to cyberbit.zip that is not installed ?

I have everything installed as per readme.

The first time (after a reboot) i start OWB (regardless if shell or icon)
it crashes with the aforementioned (by TiredofLife and Hans) crash.

Right after the GR window has popped up i start OWB again and NOW it
starts, without problems, without crashes, without recoverable alerts!

After a reboot, everything is back to "normal" - read, it crashes

I don't know the inner workings of OWB, but i suspect OWB tries to read
something which is created on startup (but not yet available) and
crashes.
The second start CAN read this "something" (because it was created on
start of the first instance) and starts up normally (maybe only some
little bugger in env?)

Could you give me an idea on where to look next?


Hi,

I can confirm the above, until doing the above I would get a ISI crash everytime I ram OWB. This would be even before the GUI would show up.

I have all the need fonts (even completely rebuilding my fonts directory.

I have 4 crash logs if anyone would like me to send them.

It appears there may be a problem with the ?newlib.library.kmod?.

Ciao,
Trev Daley.

@all

If you want to check your font installations, use Fontpreviewer available here.
You will have to check each of the fonts individually, but the error messages with incorrect font installations are useful. Assuming you have installed the core fonts you need to check the following fonts:-

Andale Mono.font
Arial Black.font
Arial Bold Italic.font
Arial Bold.font
Arial Italic.font
Arial.font
Comic Sans MS Bold.font
Comic Sans MS.font
Courier New Bold Italic.font
Courier New Bold.font
Courier New Italic.font
Courier New.font
Georgia Bold Italic.font
Georgia Bold.font

Tahoma.font
Times New Roman Bold Italic.font
Times New Roman Bold.font

I can reproduce a problem with 1.10 now, it's not same as the crashes others get, but it may be related.

Have reinstalled the fonts using the correct method.
No more error message but I am getting random lockups now instead.

Wouldn't it be better to use Amiga fonts that come with OS4 that we already have ?
It does, if a font a page is using isn't installed OWB uses the DejaVu fonts included in AmigaOS4.

That Cybit thing was about 6Mb in size and takes ages on a slower connection.
It's not required.

I am still getting the Reapers so there must be something else as well. SnoopDos shows those font related but I am sure I already have Arial and DejaVu already.
Try if removing Arial, etc. (but not the DejaVu fonts) helps, unless you used the .otag files from my corefonts.lha. It doesn't need any fonts except for the DejaVu fonts included in OS4, but there seem to be problems with wrongly installed fonts.

Of course I don't get any of these problems here and don't know what the reason for the crashes is, if someone who gets the crashes sents me his Arial, Curier New and Times New Roman .otag and .font files I could try to find out what's wrong and fix it in the next version.

how about supplying these fonts as some of us haven't got windows machines

That would be illegal.



Wouldn't it be better to use Amiga fonts that come with OS4 that we already have ? That would be perfectly legal and avoid too many downloads of third party files.

Or even better do what the other browsers do and let the user choose the ones they want from those we have available rather than relying on fonts from the Windows world which need to be downloaded.

For me (A1 G4) it works pretty well, but most of the links are not clickable (the pointer doesn't change into a hand and cliks have no effect at all). It was that way already under 1.09, but it is now worst

Found the fonts on Win2000, installed the fonts, using typemanager in sys:system.
They are available on sourceforge.net as well, check the readme in http://strohmayer.org/sfs/files/corefonts.lha
Make sure to set the font families when installing them yourself instead of using my .otag and .font files.

It looks like OWB will crash if website uses a font that is not installed.
No, it doesn't. But it may crash if you do have the fonts but your installation of them is broken.

I've installed that Cybit font per the intructions and it's made no difference.

Getting the same yelow guru as others.
The UNICODEFONT font isn't used at all unless there are missing glyphs in the other fonts which isn't the case on sites like amigans.net, only for example on chinese, japanese, etc. pages, and even on such pages it doesn't crash if you don't have such a font, it just can't render most of these pages.

Try if it works after removing FONTS:Arial#?, FONTS:Courier New#?, FONTS:Times New Roman#? and FONTS:Verdana#? if you have any of them. Of course they are not required either, but if you do have them and there is something wrong with the installation it can cause problems. Or install them using my .otag files.

Everyone who gets crashes please run OWB from a shell and check if there is any output with font names, if started from Workbench version 1.10 doesn't print any warning and error messages any more.
