Description
When I add a ttf font file (lowercase letters) to the sites/default/files dir tree and choose add profile in signwriter, I get WSOD when clicking add profile. I've tried fonts from various sources, always this result. If fonts are absent, signwriter behaves normally (of course you can't create a profile so it does nothing). I'm attaching a font that causes this issue. drupal 6.12 php 5.2.6
This problem occurs in signwriter 1.1 as well. This is my first attempt to use signwriter.

I am not able to reproduce the error using the font you have provided.
Is there anything other information you can give related to this.
Do you have any errors in your drupal watchdog logs (admin/reports/dblog)
or any errors in the error log on your server?

ransomweaver, are you on Leopard, perchance? I've got the same issue and traced it to a problem with the Apache 2 GD library setup. Haven't worked through the fix yet, but relevant discussion is here: GD + TTF fonts problem
