Mac asks for font downloading every time
thomas_braun
On my M1 Mac (Sonoma in a VM) I always get the below dialog when I run Igor Pro from a shell. I've tried skipping the download or selecting download nothing persists, After a day or so the last choice is forgotten. I also downloaded the Osaka font in FontManager, nothing. Same issue with IP8 or 9.
Does anyone face the same issue? Any ideas how to resolve it?
Perplexity.ai has some information about why it happens but also notes that "it's a problem":

Thanks Jim. Looks like I'm not alone with the issue, but no solution. Let's hope for the new OSX version in fall being more clever.
