Error loading symbol library ul_TCR3DF335LMCT

In schematic after installing a TCR3DF335,LM(CT
on attempting to place a symbol I get

invalid text stype, expected ‘Normal’ or ‘Italic’ in input/source
…\ul_TCR3DF335LMCT.lib
line 20,offset 16

I’m setting up to use a Toshiba device ~ TCR3DF335,LM(CT
Datasheet

https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/toshiba-semiconductor-and-storage/TCR3DF335LM-CT/10259862?s=N4IgTCBcDaICoGEBKBmAIgMRSgrAGgBkBZACgThAF0BfIA

I’ve never seen such a strange name - looks like Toshiba autocreated it, and something went wrong.

But there is a link to
https://app.ultralibrarian.com/details/86FC8B48-1BBB-11EA-A124-0AD2C9526B44/Toshiba/TCR3DF335-LM-CT?ref=digikey
and similar device that I used
https://app.ultralibrarian.com/details/86fc8b48-1bbb-11ea-a124-0ad2c9526b44/Toshiba-Electronic-Devices-Storage-Co-/TCR3DF335-LM-CT?uid=4e5184a05ba19196

which I can add to a local lib. However when I come to place it, I get the above error.

Ultralibrarian has a couple of other versions of TCR3DF - but they all seem to produce the same result.
I’ve listed the lib, but can’t really see why it might be having an error

Appreciate any pointers as to what I might be doing wrong

Remove the “.08” in those lines to read T 0 20 -60 0 0 0 0 VIN Normal 0 C C etc.

Decimals are not allowed here. I think in previous of versions of KiCad they were silently ignored, but since the file parser was reworked they now create errors.

many thanks. Still trying to figure out. In the end I downloaded another similar footprint. Really appreciate the response.
