Unable to load custom font

[Howlcn1997]

Overview

When using bodymovin to export json, turn off the glyphs setting and turn on the bundle fonts and inline fonts settings. After rendering, set fPath to the base64 font file (ttf). It can be rendered successfully in lottie-web's svg mode, but it cannot be displayed normally in lottie-web's canvas mode and dotlottie-web.

I have the same issue even when I use a system font family like monospace. Text layers just don't render after migration to dotlottie-web. They are still visible here: https://lottiefiles.github.io/lottie-docs/playground/json_editor/ (not sure what player exactly used lottie-web I assume)

UPD: Yes, I did check in lottiefies "player variants" comparator, ThorVG just doesn't render text there :(

Thanks, @Lighttree and @Howlcn1997, for reporting this! We’re looking into it and will get back with a solution soon.

@Howlcn1997 hello, when we checked, that it seems the embedded font only has these glyphs:

And result like: (since thorvg 1.0.0-pre14)

That is somehow thorvg can do support now.

However, if you really like to show these additional glyphs,

I'd suggest to include them as well in the embedded font data.

Thanks.
