Cross-platform font handling, and why you don't want to do it

[Bob Sneidar]

I'm going through my code and disabling the places where I check if a standalone is being built. I put that in there to try and get around the problem where I get alerted that stacks are in use, but that code doesn't work anyway. I still have to build one platform at a time, quitting LC between each. I think that the build code is somehow not seeing that I am loading font files in the preOpenStack handler.

The fonts do not get included in a MacOS standalone


embedding fonts in a Mac standalone worked fine for me. Have you checked that the fonts are actually in <yourApp>/Contents/Resources/_MacOS/ and your file path when loading is correct
