Illustrator :: Fonts Don't Show In CS6 Applications
Jan 20, 2014
A client really likes a font and wants me to incorporate it into her logo. I installed the font and it's working in Pages and other programs, but not in Adobe CS6 applications (Illustrator, Photoshop, InDesign). I installed a ttf and an otf version of the font but neither work. I installed & validated the font with Font Book. I've tried a lot of the fixes I've seen on these forums but nothing's worked. I've restarted my computer a few times too.
I am trying to work with my previous Photoshop files I created last night on CS5.5 and Suitcase Fusion 4. All my loaded and active fonts are not active in Photoshop. How do i get my fonts to be activated in my adobe applications?
I found a big problem (for me ) of the font showing. Since i used CS5 before , the font can show normally. But I found that some of the type cannot be show but instead with " square "Â in CS6. Â Â CS 6 CS5
I have loadad some lisp applications in Tools-Load applications. And when i reopen acad it doesn't show any of these lisp files loaded. What seems to be the problem
how to get Gimp to only showfonts from the user/fonts file rather than the vast amount of system fonts.
I think you should read the original mail again. Hint: "system fonts not shown" is not the problem, but the desired outcome.I have accidentally read a "not" into the original mail, thus it became "to get Gimp to *not* only show fonts from the user/fonts file"
The configuration to check is the fonconfig settings then, for example the the global, system-wide fonts.conf file. It may contain references to the global font directories, for example /usr/share/fonts/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts. URL....
If you comment those out, then you can (and have to) add all font directories in GIMP's settings, for example.
i just subscribed to CC as a student, and i cant get photoshop or illustrator to open. the splash screen loads and goes through, and you can see illustrator and photoshop both open, but close a few seconds later with no prompts or errors. i browsed around and saw something about verdana font, but i have it installed. Â Edit: i am running windows 8.1
I had to reinstall Acrobat Pro X today because combining pdfs was sticking at "checking security".  After the re-install everything went fine with that, but now ExtendScript shows only itself in the application target menu. (Previously had all of CS6 and CS5 apps in there)  I tried to reinstall CS6 illustrator to see if that added it, got a few install errors, but mainly about not being able to delete files. No luck in restoring the app menu.  If I set  #target illustrator  I get a "illustrator undefined" error, and no script execution. in the middle of a major project which includes scripts in illustrator and combining pdfs in acrobat.
I've got an issue with Adobe CS3 illustrator not displaying the full UI when used via Microsoft Remote Applications (RDS Windows Server 2008 R2). When connect to the server via a normal RDP interface the connection UI is displayed correctly. The Other Adobe CS3 MC application work fine in either connection method. Â I have logged a call with MS and we have tried a varierty of RDS Fixes however we do seem pointing to a illustrator issue over a RDS issue.
In Photoshop 7.0 how do you get it show the fonts in the drop down font selection menu? Not just show the font name but what the font looks like as well.
I am drawing in AutoCAD 2012 and when I want to change the font I just have standard to choose from. How do I get all the other fonts to my drawing? (They're all in the fonts folder on my computer)
The drawing I'm working on is exported from LisCAD, is that why I have limited options?
is there a way to select which fonts show up in photoshop (without deleting them)? I want to keep as few as possible so I can find the ones I like quickly.
Now another thing I dont get is all the different font types. Type 1, 2, 3 TrueType, OpenType....
What's the difference between all of these, which should I be using, and how can I tell what my font types are?
I upgraded to CS5 and cannot scroll through the fonts and see the change in my type layer. I know it's supposed to work, but can't seem to find out why it isn't.
When I click on the Font Navigator icon, the window opens, but there are no fonts anywhere.......it's empty !! When I click on View All Fonts, nothing happens .  How do I get my installed fonts to show up in my Font Navigator?
We reinstalled Windows 7 64bit to Windows 7 32bit and now all previously created Corel Draw X5 files in Win 7 64bit did not show correct fonts in Win 7 32 bit. All fonts are installed.
I've installed some new fonts into my windows vista. The fonts were successfully installed and a check in Office reflected the new fonts. when i opened CS4, these fonts were not found in the list of characters.
I was working on a project and went to change to a different font and all that was there are the last 6 or so that I used. When I go to the drop down menu It doesn't show any other fonts. I know there are a lot of fonts in the computer but cannot get them on the program.
I have a bear of a project where I have to match different fonts w/ different "logos", and being able to highlight the font, and then use the font menu and, maybe, the up/down arrow keys would make my life infinitely easier. Â This works in InDesign.. and every other program on Earth... is there ANY way to do this in Illy CS4?
One of the few software that didn't play nice was CS3, so I had to re-install it. Now, many of the fonts won't show up. I'm doing a logo for a client and I need some fonts but fonts from the following- New Peninim, Corsiva Hebrew, Ariel Hebrew and/or Raanana-- don't appear after you engage the Type tool. What shows up in both Photoshop and especially Illustrator is a square box with nothing in it.  columns on line and followed 4 or 5 different "solutions"-- nothing seems to work. I even, against my suspicions, called the Adobe customer service and the best they could offer was to post a question here if my answer was not apparent.  Bearing in mind that I've put fonts in the Adobe folder, reset characters and a few other things since yesterday.Â
just installed illustrator cs6, am not fluent in cs5. I cannot find any fonts.  the character window shows no type face selections. Did I install wrong or aren't there any fonts that come with this version.
I'm having an issue with Illustrator 6. I had a previous verison (CS4 and CS5) that was used to created some documents. I'm having trouble with the fonts used translating to the new version even though in the font library, all the fonts I need are listed there. Â Is there an issue with backwards compatability?
I just upgraded to CS6 from CS4. Some fonts that worked without a problem in CS4 no longer even show up in the font options in CS6. I use Font Agent Pro to manage my fonts. They are not corrupt, they work on other computers, and were purchased from online font foundries.
I have Illustrator CS5 and I am having problems with my fonts. I like to type my text, highlight it, and then click on the font I am using and scroll down so I can see the text I've type changed until I find the font I want.  However, I am having some issues - it only seems to go through fonts in sections. I have a lot of fonts on my computer but I cant scroll through more than about 10/15 without it either jumping to the end/bottom font or going back to the font I started on.
how to edit a PDF file in Illustrator when you don't have the fonts. This is a godsend and thought others might benefit from it if they don't know about it.
You get a PDF file from somebody and when you try to open it in Illustrator, the PDF is using fonts that you don't have so it substitutes the fonts and screws everything up. Â Create a new Illustrator document the size of the PDF. Place the PDF into the Illustrator document. While the PDF is selected, go to Object menu / Flatten Transparency...In there, make sure"Convert All Test to Outlines" IS checked.Click OK and there you go, everything is converted to outlines, including the fonts and you can do with it what you want.
when trying to preview different fonts in AI i am unable to scroll through them using the arrow keys, it just doesnt move... if it can be fixed... oh im using cs3 and a mac on os x leopard
When opening an CS6 Illustrator file, certain fonts are not recognized – any pointers? Font Book confirms the fonts are "installed" with no compat issues. Wondering why CS6 doesn't see/sniff out the fonts.
