Hi Robin

I just wondered if there is any news for this,

I'm currently using SDK4.1 and the error is still present.

There are no problems, if you select one of these four fonts, before you start typing anything all is well, but if you start with another font, type a word and then select one of the four, then the #2161 error occurs.

I hope this may assist the troubleshooting.

Regards

Allan

I'm not sure where these fonts come from, maybe they are the built-in fonts in Office. The un-supported fonts are as follow:
Algerian
Bauhaus 93
Harlow Solid Italic
Vivaldi.

Can you tell me where you got this particular font? Is it from Linotype, ITC, did it come free from somewhere? We will need to get the font so we can try to reproduce the problem here.

Thanks!
