Any reports yet about which type design software breaks under macOS Mojave?
It is the last version of macOS to run 32 bit applications, so FontLab Studio 5 gets another year of life ;( (Notwithstanding the annoying bugs with copy & paste which were introduced in macOS High Sierra)
Regarding macOS High Sierra: I found a workaround for FontLab 5 to the new file system APFS not returning file lists in alphabetical order, thus messing up the sorting of macros in the menus:

Regarding macOS High Sierra: I found a workaround for FontLab 5 to the new file system APFS not returning file lists in alphabetical order, thus messing up the sorting of macros in the menus:
- Make a disk image with the old HFS+ format, which lists files alphabetically:
hdiutil create -size 100m -type SPARSE -fs HFS+ -volname FontLab FontLab- Copy the contents of your "Applications Support/FontLab" folder into it
- Quit FontLab, move the old folder out of the way and attach the disk image in the same location:
hdiutil attach FontLab.sparseimage -mountpoint "~/Library/Application Support/FontLab"
