Hi @Lazzari @Angelo5FBF @francescot / All

We have identified that this is happening due to one or more corrupted fonts present in the machine. Loading of such fonts during application startup leading to the crash. We are working on a fix for this and will let you know as soon as there is an update.

 

Thanks!

Hi,

 

Is there any update on when this problem will be fixed?

 

I use animate as part of my after effects workflow but since I've updated my apps AE 2021 doesn't import my Animate 2020 files.

Not exactly sure what "corrupted font" means... it was working just fine before and I didn't change any fonts or install new one. And I just updated Animate to the latest version (v 21.0.4 Build 39603) and problem still persists 😕

 

Anyway, the thing I found out is when I uncheck "Export in frame 1" in "Font Embedding" panel for each font everything works just fine.

 

Hope this helps someone!

I was facing the same issue as everyone here. I downgraded to the previous release and it is working now. Will wait for the fix to upgrade again.

Can you please let me know as well? I'm really needing to use it, and cleaning out my fonts didn't work, so completely at a loss over here.

checking more than once per week isn't going to help.  you can expect it will take weeks to months before a "next" version of animate is released.

 

in the meantime, if you think this problem applies to you, remove or fix your corrupted fonts.
