Font upload problem (2)

We did all the steps of the font-manifest (https://helpx.adobe.com/digital-publishing-solution/help/cards-layouts.html#fonts-cards‌), but we are unable to upload our fonts on our build. We read the last topic about it and we followed the steps indicated by Andrei, but without success.

"When creating the manifest, please make sure the json file is actually named "font-manifest.json". If you name it fonts.json, fonts won't be baked in the app properly and won't work. (this was the problem this time around) We're looking at "manifest-free"

Here is our manifest: https://www.dropbox.com/s/6g4i7to7f1ojrc9/font-manifest.json?dl=0

Could you help us?

I took all you font-manifest.json text and copied it into a couple different online online JSON validator tools and they all came back invalid. It looks like there are a number of hidden characters that is causing the failure. The first three hits with this query return some tools: json validator‌.

To clear up these hidden characters you should format the JSON as a plain text file. I hope this helps. If not, I suggest contacting support, this may be specific to the font files.

They're not properly applied for us.

Is the problem that you cannot upload the fonts, or that the fonts aren't properly applied when viewing your app on the device? If it is a problem uploading please post a screenshot.

I'm also having this problem. I've been working on it for the last day and can't get anywhere.

Here is our manifest: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/19036466/font-manifest.json

FYI, I'm building an iOS App running on iOS 9.
