[francescopellegrni]

Detailed steps on how to reproduce the bug

` auto reloadRegular = juce::Typeface::createSystemTypefaceFor(BinaryData::ReloadRegular_otf, BinaryData::ReloadRegular_otfSize);

auto ff = juce::Font(reloadLight);

            auto fontRescaleSize = juce::jmap<float>(pluginWidth, 763, 1970, 12.f, 30.f);
            
            ff.setSizeAndStyle(fontRescaleSize, "Light", 1.f, -0.01f);
            //ff.setSizeAndStyle(18.f, "Light", 1.f, -0.01f);
            g.setFont(ff);
            g.drawText(juce::String(rswl->getValue(), rswl->getName() == "Gain" ? 1 : rswl->getName() == "Spread" ? 2 : rswl->getName() == "Width" ? 0 : rswl->getName() == "Limiter" && rswl->getValue()<=99.9f ? 1 : 0), 0 + (x * 0.13f), 0 + (y * 0.056f), rw, rw, juce::Justification::centred);`

Working in both JUCE 6 and 7, but stopped working in juce 8.

version 8.0.4 - Xcode 16 - Sequoia

Is the code snippet copied directly from your project?

auto reloadRegular = ...
auto ff = juce::Font (reloadLight);

Where are you initialising reloadLight?

[francescopellegrni]

sorry reloadLight was my TTF font that made me realize the bug.. you should put the otf font in that constructor.

Are you saying that you're still seeing the problem if you pass an otf font there? If the issue is resolved, please let me know and I'll close this issue.

[francescopellegrni]

No no the bug is still there

I haven't been able to reproduce this issue so far. OTF fonts loaded from binarydata display as I'd expect in a new GUI app project running on macOS 15.

Working in both JUCE 6 and 7, but stopped working in juce 8.

Is the JUCE version definitely the only thing that changed, or did you make any source code or configuration changes to your project during the upgrade?

It would be helpful to see the entire source code of a minimal program that demonstrates the issue, so that we can rule out bugs in the program code.

It would also be a good idea to test with a different .otf font and check whether you get the same results. If the issue is triggered by a specific property of the font, then we may need a copy of the font file in order to investigate further.
