... Invalid ligature rule replacement

[ekke wolf]

Hallo, ich versuche derzeit gerade, einen OpenType-Font in Fontlab Studio 5.0.4 für Mac zu erstellen.

Beim Kompilieren der OpenType-Features stoße ich auf immer dieselbe Fehlermeldung im Output Panel:

[ERROR] <EveningRegular> Invalid ligature rule replacement [/users/ekkewolf/Library/Application Support/FontLab/Studio 5/Features/fontlab.fea 218]

[FATAL] <EveningRegular> aborting because of errors

Mit den Ligaturen und Brüchen habe ich schon einiges versucht, komme aber nicht weiter.

Es wäre super, wenn mir jemand helfen könnte!

Danke im Voraus

Ekke

Dann zeig mal die OpenType Features, die Du eingebaut hast. Da liegt dann mit großer Wahrscheinlichkeit der Fehler. Ohne die zu sehen, kann man auch nicht sagen, was falsch ist.

[ekke wolf]

Das sind die Features, herauskopiert aus der .fea-Datei, ich hoffe, das ist so in Ordnung.

Die Features und Classes bauen auf dem freefont.pro von Fontlab auf, nur ein wenig adaptiert.

@FIG_SC sind zum Beispiel Kapitälchenziffern ohne Ober- und Unterlängen, also auf x-Höhe begrenzte Lining Figures, wenn man so will.

@FIGURES = [

@FIG_TAB_LINING @FIG_FIT_LINING @FIG_FIT_OLDSTYLE @FIG_TAB_OLDSTYLE @FIG_SC @FIG_SUPERIOR @FIG_INFERIOR @FIG_NUMERATOR @FIG_DENOMINATOR

];

@NUMERATOR_ALL = [

@FIG_NUMERATOR @MISC_NUMERATOR

];

@DENOMINATOR_ALL = [

@FIG_DENOMINATOR @MISC_DENOMINATOR

];

@LETTERS = [

@LETTERS_UC @LETTERS_LC @LETTERS_SC @LETTERS_ALT @LIGATURES

];

Ui, das ist ’ne Menge. Allerdings wird oben in der Fehlermeldung die Zeile angegeben, wo er hängengeblieben ist. Damit solltest du das schon mal leicht eingrenzen können.

[ekke wolf]

Aha, vielen Dank für den Tipp!

Ich wusste nicht, dass das in der Fehlermeldung die Zeile ist, sondern dachte an den Namen einer Datei, die aufgrund eines Bugs doch nicht angelegt wurde ...

Ich werde da heute Nacht mein Glück versuchen.

Schöne Grüße

ekke

[ekke wolf]

Wie es aussieht, konnte ich meinen Fehler eingrenzen. Verstehen kann ich allerdings nicht:

feature smcp {

sub @LETTERS_LC by @LETTERS_SC;

sub @PUNCT_LC @PUNCT_UC by @PUNCT_SC;

sub @FIG_TAB_LINING by @FIG_SC;

sub @FIG_FIT_LINING by @FIG_SC;

sub @FIG_TAB_OLDSTYLE by @FIG_SC;

sub @FIG_FIT_OLDSTYLE by @FIG_SC;

sub @CURRENCY_LINING by @CURRENCY_TAB_OLDSTYLE;

sub @ACCENTS_LC by @ACCENTS_SC;

} smcp;

Fontlab zeigt mir sogar die Zeile an die nicht stimmt, nur wusste ich das nicht:

sub @FIG_TAB_OLDSTYLE by @FIG_SC;

Kann das damit zusammenhängen, dass irgendwo versteckt als default figures für Kapitälchen die Taboldstyles eingetragen sind und sich das Programm gegen anderslautende Intentionen wehrt?

[Ralf Herrmann]

    sub @PUNCT_LC @PUNCT_UC by @PUNCT_SC;[/CODE]
Das wird es sein!
Ersetze [i]Klasse Klasse [/i]durch [i]Klasse[/i] kann nicht gehen.

[ekke wolf]

Ja, danke danke danke, das war es!

Dann sind noch ein paar andere Fehlermeldungen aufgetaucht, die aber konkrete Anweisungen beinhaltet haben. Zum Schluss habe ich noch eine bei "frac" nicht verstanden, aber auf dieses feature kann ich bei meiner Schrift eigentlich verzichten. Die Brüche können auch über die Glyphenpalette gewählt werden.

Jetzt habe ich endlich ein funktionierendes Preview-Fenster und kann die Arbeit weitertreiben.

Schöne Grüße
