I’m trying to use the textToPoints function: [https://p5js.org/reference/#/p5.Font/textToPoints](https://p5js.org/reference/#/p5.Font/textToPoints)

But keep getting the following error: \> _p5.js says: It looks like there was a problem loading your font. Try checking if the file path [assets/Mozer-SemiBold.otf] is correct, hosting the font online, or running a local server.[[https://github.com/processing/p5.js/wiki/Local-server](https://github.com/processing/p5.js/wiki/Local-server)]_

I have made sure that the font file is in the correct folder and used the preload function correctly. What am I missing?

```auto
let font;

function preload(){
    font = loadFont('assets/Mozer-SemiBold.otf');
}

```

Thanks for all your help!

Were you able to resolve this issue?

Is this happening with any / all fonts, such as the reference example (`assets/inconsolata.otf`) or is it just `assets/Mozer-SemiBold.otf`?
