Fonts gone wild ... I dread updating

1. offizieller Beitrag

    Something has gone very wrong with fonts. I had a simple document with some embedded wingding characters using WPTools 5.17.4. I updated to 5.18.3, and it looks fine until I edit it in any way, like deleting a character and re-entering it or even performing a mailmerge with it. Then when I save and reload it, the document is primarily wingdings. Here is the RTF before and after...

    before (from 5.17.4 or earlier):

    I can send you images of what it looks like before and after in case you need it.

    Hi,

    I think this can be caused by the removal of the default font ids in the RTF reader.

    Please for now active the define DONT_FIX_DEFSTYLE in file WPIOReadRTF.

    In next release it should work properly (even with removing that default fonts which is very important for style functionality) - in my beta I cannot reproduce the problem.
