When I list a variable font (with its instances) in a webpage using opentype.js, it prints everything as expected except for one instance that is “Undefined”.
MyFont_VF - undefined
As far as I know, this is because in the fvar the Regular version points to the subfamilyNameID=2 and is ignored. The other NameInstances point to a subfamilyName=259 or another.
Our guess is that opentype.js doesn’t handle the “elided fallback name” mechanism correctly.
