16.13 (180424) Type 1 fonts not usable as expected

Split from this thread.

Hello Sky,

As I mentioned in my last message, I was using 16.13 (180422) and the fonts didn't work.

Today I downloaded the latest 16.13 (180424). I've rebooted my system and then took screenshots.

Recap:

Microsoft Word 15.41 does show the fonts in the font menus and in documents. Here's a sample:

The same document in Microsoft Word 16.13 (180424) does not show the font as seen in the next image.

Notice that the letterforms are different (the lowercase l and y are perfect examples).

And in Microsoft 16.13 (180424) the font menus do not display the postscipt fonts even when they're in the current document.

See how the top of the list doesn't include the Bliss font nor does it appear later on in the alphabetical list (or anywhere else in the list, I've gone through it thoroughly).

I was just informed that the PostScript Type 1 font issues should be resolved as of the latest Insider Slow release from this week.

    Can you pls confirm if Helv Neue fonts are working OK now in 16.13.0 (18050501)? I don't want to download it and then have to waste more time going back to 15.41 again!!  Thanks

    Thanks for the reply. Sorry to hear you're seeing it more broadly (not unselfishly because it means I'm likely to encounter it again as well.)

    None of us should be jumping through the hoops we are to make this work properly....
