            Description

            A files has been submitted that does not correctly render on macOS. The gylphs in question are to be substituted using a STSong font. This normally works fin on windows systems as there are default STSong fonts mainly "STSong Light Acro" or "Adobe Song Std Acro". However this doesn't appear to be the case on unix systems.

            I was able to get the font to render correctly on my linux box but this required my to install a full "stsong" font and regenerate the system font list. Further research is needed to find out where macOS puts it's user installed fonts on the file system so we can insure the FontManager picks them up.
