Hi,
an update that this appears to be to do with @font-face css, not just specific to ttf files. I also tried it with other formats.
The below two bits of css cause the crash.
@font-face {
font-family: 'ParisianRegular';
src: url('images/Parisian.ttf');
font-weight: normal;
font-style: normal;
}
@font-face {
font-family: 'ParisianRegular';
src: url('images/parisian-webfont.svg#ParisianRegular') format('svg');
font-weight: normal;
font-style: normal;
}
Thanks for the detailed report.. I've sent this to some folks internally to reproduce.
Cheers,
Andy
Hey Rene - okay - we've tried this and are unable to reproduce.
We were able to use the Parisian.ttf font on both Windows XP 32bit SP3 and Windows 7 Home Basic 32bit.
Here's the code we used:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<style type="text/css">
@font-face {
font-family: 'ParisianRegular';
src: url('images/Parisian.ttf');
font-weight: normal;
font-style: normal;
}
div
{
font-family:ParisianRegular;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<p><b>Note:</b> Internet Explorer only supports .eot fonts.</p>
<div>
With CSS3, websites can finally use fonts other than the pre selected "web-safe" fonts.
</div>
</body>
</html>
Hello,
thanks for looking into this!
So it seems like the crash must be related to the combination of the font and something else in the app.
Maybe I can find a minimal example of where it crashes, without the rest of it.
cheers,
