It looks like the font is licensed under the Apache license (http://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0) and not SIL OFL. I have not seen this before.

So it is not exportable?

Hi @johanmattssonm, I just created my own font using the free version of Birdfont and I got exactly the same message when trying to export to ttf. Apparently it should be possible to export to ttf with the free version of Birdfont based on their website.
Is it normal to get this error in the lastest version (4.26.2-free) as of today?

Which font are you using. I guess it might be an issue with the licensing of the font. Please attach it here.
Cheers

Thank you for the fast reply.
Indeed, when I try to check the license, it does not show up.

Thank you. This font is not licensed under the SIL OFL. The copyright statement says:
Copyright (c) GE Aviation. 2007. All rights reserved.

Thank you so, much, indeed, that copyright was removing the validity of the license (I was working on an already existing doc).
Opening a whole new document and copying the glyphs there one by one solved my problem.
Thank you for your help!
