Hi,

Using v1.01, I open a font file and I can perform the
edits. If I then save the file and try to reopen it I
am unable to do so and I get the error "Error opening
font file (-2)

I have also tried creating a new file, saving and then
opening again but I am unable to do so and get the
same error.

Open a known good PDB file, edit and save as PDB file
and it can not be reopened. Then change the name
extension to PFT and it can be reopened.

Open a known good PFT file, edit and save as PDB file
and it can not be reopened.

Open a known good PFT file, edit and save as PFT file
and it can be reopened.

What seems to be happening to me is that the save
as "PDB" is not working correctly, it is saving the
file as PFT but with a
PDB extension.

    Since the project description does not claim to write to PDB format, I presume that the error is that the Save dialog prompts to "Save as type: Palm Font Files (.pft;*.pdb)", when something like "Palm Font Files (*.pft)" is appropriate.

    Possibly a different value for szFilter should be passed to the Save dialog than the Open dialog.

    Yes there is no code to save as .PDB
    Probably should just return an error
