Glad you solved it. Its those types of issues I was referring to as corrupt. Different applications and operating systems may be more more less sensitive to errors in the font file. Fonts coming from lesser known foundries, which includes a lot of the free fonts, can have errors in them that can create issues. Usually it’s alignment issues, like the bottom of descenders becoming the baseline, etc.

I’ve also found in the past that there can be issues if an OTF file extension is manually changed to TTF (or maybe it was the other way round). It was very frustrating because it was a font file found online so I didn’t even realise that the file had been changed.
I version all my production font files (in the main directory), as well as keeping original downloads in an artifacts folder along with relevant readme instructions.
