There's something odd going on. I'm zipping with !SparkFS 1.42, and
using the "Test Archive" feature before uploading. Either the FTP
transaction is killing the zips (possible) or... I don't know.
Either way, I just place fonts in !Fonts, I don't "install" them.
NetSurf scans them on next run. Scanning takes about 10 seconds per
font, but completes OK.
Make sure you're running our OS build, since there were some bugs in
the UniCode font manager previously.
I'll try and re-upload the files from this end. I'm really puzzled by
UniFont, though, as one of our programmers downloaded it fine the
other day.
Hmm. It seems like a problem with data corruption during upload, as
the original zips work fine.
