Jimp Browser with Web Workers issue when loading font

[JOscarEduardo]

Hi, guys!

Jimp is amazing! I am using it in the server and also in the browser. Recently I decided to use it inside of a web worker. However, when I do that, the Jimp.loadFont fails when trying to load a font. The message is:

Error: error parsing font document is not defined
    at Object.callback (jimp.js:4657)
    at cbOnce (jimp.js:8445)
    at loadFunc (jimp.js:8449)
    at XMLHttpRequest.readystatechange (jimp.js:8445)

I noticed, in the network pane of chrome console, that the .fnt file is loading correctly. However, the .png file doesn't even appear in the network pane.

I used the same calls and paths (native fonts) that are currently in use and working properly without the Web Worker.

Any hints?

Thanks!

Oscar

@JOscarEduardo can you provide me some sample code?

Closing as there was never a repro

I am confused... was this issue ever considered? Using fonts in a WebWorker still does not work.
Example worker:

importScripts('./jimp.js');

(async () => {

  const font = await Jimp.loadFont('fonts/open-sans/open-sans-32-black/open-sans-32-black.fnt');

  self.addEventListener('message', e => {
    Jimp.read(e.data).then((img) => {
      img
      .print(font, 10, 10, "Hello World!")
      .getBase64(Jimp.AUTO, (err, src) => {
        if (err) throw err;
        self.postMessage(src);
      });
    });
  });

})();

The following error is thrown:

jimp.js:2 Uncaught (in promise) Error: error parsing font document is not defined

Using latest version of jimp (0.22.12)
