Sorry, but I don't see those errors when I use v8.20 on my Windows 10 
machine. I was able to generate an OTF without issues.

I saved the OTF font on my Desktop. Maybe there is a problem with your 
fonts?

Thank you anyway for testing!

I just tried on another computer and I get the same errors message.
The font is the original provided in LilyPond directory
(LilyPond\usr\share\lilypond\current\fonts\otf)

I think the problem is when the font is opened, it seems to ignore some
important tables...

I can bypass the error message and export the font anyway. But it creates a
new OTF slightly smaller (less than 100ko), and if I tried then within
LilyPond, here's what I get:

I think those errors are safe to ignore for what you want to do...

I made you a quick video showing what I did here...hope it can be of some help.

Have fun! :)
