I have created a new font with glyphs at E000 E001 E002 and E003 which are variations on a company logo.

When I try to generate a Windows TTF I get the following errors:

[FATAL] <LSI> aborting because of errors:
syntax error at "}"
[/Users/marc/Library/Application Support/FontLab/Studio 5/Features/fontlab.fea 3]
[FATAL] <LSI> aborting because of errors:
syntax error at "}"

[FATAL] <LSI> aborting because of errors:
syntax error at "}"
[/Users/marc/Library/Application Support/FontLab/Studio 5/Features/fontlab.fea 3]


The font worked ok initially when I had the glyphs at A B C D in the font. Any clues as to what is going on?

You have a syntax error in your OpenType code.

The error about OpenType Layout Feature (OTLF). The syntax should be recheck on OT mode active. "}" is standard syntax for moreover feature. Here we need more right syntax and we must care when draw them. For instance:

feature smcp { # Small capitals    
# Latin                                    
  sub @lc by @sc;  -------> here always closing by ";" and @lc/@sc were indicating classes
} smcp;

Just a few bit wrong code, we will get error shower   Cheesy

But overall, think OTLF will be recognize as well when generating OT. You can write the specific script on the OpenType feature for good solving. Sure here more expert for your good sense  Grin. Thanks.

Best regards
