It is unrelated to .otf vs .ttf fonts. It can happen with either. Happened to me with only .ttf fonts installed. Removed all incomplete fonts and those that don't look good. I doubt it has something to do with ugly looking fonts, but when not all styles (or possibly too many) style are available.

I have limited to a few fonts that have regular, regular-italic, regular-bold, and regular-bold-italic. Those 4 styles and only those 4 per font family are on my Oasis2 now - no more errors.
