Hey swaroop.pal101088,
I’m running to the same issue. The fontsExample compiles and runs fine but my code produces this error. After stepping through the code in debug mode I found that the font is unloaded after each iteration, so I have to continuely call myfont.load(…).
The difference between my code and the example is that I’m declaring the ofTryeTypeFont object as a member of a class.
How did you solve this issue?
Cheers,
