    What is the path (fully qualified) of where it is trying to save this asset?

    Is this path super long or contain some non latin characters.

    When creating a new font asset, the file path requester should show up allowing to confirm / change the path location.

    Is the path it comes up with appear to be the correct path?

    Is this path inside the project?

    Try a different path inside the project?

    Do you get the same behavior if you create a new project and go through the same steps?

    If the issue persists even with a newly created project, please submit a bug report with that new project along with the steps to reproduce. Once you have the Case #, please provide it here.
