Because it can't be serialized (into a compressed project resource the gateway can store). It is the font designer's fault, as they are supposed to be serializable.
I'm getting the same error Unable to create clean copy of class de.javasoft.plaf.synthetica.ScalableFont
I'm not using any fonts other than the mapped "Dialog" font I did enable the "Use Condensed Font" after upgrading, maybe this is it??
I turned it off and re-opened my project in Designer, created a new Vision Window and added a Label, saved, and I STILL get the error??

Edit:
for some reason, when I drag on a label and don't change the font, it's telling me it's "Dialog, Plain, 19" which is odd. Usually the default font size is 16pt? or 12pt? can't remember. When I change it to 16pt, the font size is larger than the original "size 19pt"... And after changing the font size (nothing else), it now saves. I really don't want to have to set the font of every single text component in all of my Windows/Templates...
Edit2:
This is a button I dragged on, only change was to add a script:
and after literally just clicking on the dropdown arrow beside the Font property and clicking OK (no changes to any of the values)
I'm pretty sure I'm seeing the same behavior after importing a view and a couple templates from a sister project. Do you have any resolution yet? I tried manually changing all of the components' font property and was still getting the error.
I used a script in a button I copied onto my graphics which went through components on the screen, and if the font contained de.javasoft.plaf.synthetica.ScalableFont, then I set the font to what it should be in the script.
I'm only on my phone now, but it was something like:
from java.awt import Font
for c in event.source.parent: #the root container
if 'de.javasoft.plaf.synthetica.ScalableFont' in str(c.font):
size = c.font.size
c.setFont(Font('Dialog', Font.PLAIN, size)
You'll have to recursively call it to get objects in groups or containers.
If anyone is still having this problem, it is almost like it is "stuck open" and doesnt think designer is open. I had to basically sign out (Closes everything out. Basically a restart). Then signed back in and re opened and it worked.
I am having this issue. The Font is Dialog, Bold, 12. then it all changes to size 19 and I can no longer save. Yesterday I unistalled Designer and installed the latest Designer to 1.1.40 (Ignition software 8.1.40). It fixed my issue but today I open up and the text has changed to size 19 again and unable to save after making no changes to the project.

Has there been any resolution on this issue? All of my components are also frequently changing to the unsupported Synthetica font, which prevents me from saving my projects. I've created a workaround script, but my project is large enough that its becoming unusable with the constant font changes.
Nobody has reported this in to support, so no internal bug ticket has been created for it. I would highly recommend getting in contact with support so you can demonstrate the issue live (I've never been able to reproduce it) and, even if that fails, they can get an official ticket in and keep you in the loop when it gets resolved.
I did enable the "Use Condensed Font" after upgrading, maybe this is it??
