You didn't mention the version of Write activity, but os115 shipped Write-63. Hope that helps.

Does this reproduce on XO-1?

In XO-1 the the same thing happen for “Hershey- Gothic" font styles.

I set the font to "Hershey-Gothic-English" in Write after starting the activity in OLPC OS 11.2.0 os14/Write-73 and could not see anything except pseudo-random dots when I typed.
