Bug Description
On Mac OS X, the PostScript name of the font is used to identify it.
In the 0.5 release the Bold and Regular weight have the same font name: subsequently, OS X is not able to install both simultaneously.
It’s currently:
PostScript-naam NewsCycle
Volledige naam News Cycle
Familie News Cycle
Stijl Regular
PostScript-naam NewsCycle
Volledige naam News Cycle
Familie News Cycle
Stijl Bold
For example, see Charis SIL:
PostScript-naam CharisSIL
Volledige naam Charis SIL
Familie Charis SIL
Stijl Regular
PostScript-naam CharisSIL-Bold
Volledige naam Charis SIL Bold
Familie Charis SIL
Stijl Bold
thanks,
