Description

Word for Mac doesn’t show some fonts in the menu if they don’t have some Mac platform names (1, 2, 3, and maybe more I need to confirm with Michele). Furthermore, if there is no Mac platform cmap table, the font is not ordered as desired (after Zapfino even when it should be before).

For example, Noto Sans doesn’t show up in the Word for Mac font menu.

We need to go back on https://github.com/googlei18n/ufo2ft/pull/66 and https://github.com/googlei18n/fontmake/pull/130.
