Just a quick heads up, Firefox 44, coming Jan 26 2016 ( https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Firefox/Releases/44) updates OTS to reject fonts if it rejected any of { GDEF, GSUB, GPOS }. Chrome will pick this up at some point as well. Previously OTS would drop the table(s) but accept the font so it would work as a web font, albeit potentially with odd behavior due to the missing tables. This change causes some fonts that were previously accepted to be rejected by the browser. If so, those fonts will require updates to continue to work as web fonts. See https://github.com/khaledhosny/ots/issues/74 for additional context around the OTS change. Rod S
