Illustrator CS5 and CS6 (and previous versions) came with a set of core fonts, e.g. Myriad Pro, included upon install.
Â
I uninstalled Illustrator CS6 (and all other CS6 products) before installing Illustrator CC, but none of the fonts were included, so in Illustrator I have no MyriadPro (the font appears in the font list, but has an asterisk next to it to indicate a subsitution is being made). Are these fonts no longer included?
Â
Okay - fixed. A restart later and the fonts are there. They must be registered with Windows on restart, which is an odd way of doing it as there's no requirement that the computer be restarted between font installations.
The version that came with X4 worked in XP, but when I upgraded to Windows 7 it wouldn't install Type 1 fonts, and it wouldn't install any missing fonts when a file loaded. I buy Font Expert, though I never got it to work as well as the old FN.
But my new (trial) version of X5 has a version of the utility (v. 6.0.0, build 108) that seems to work just fine both ways. Thats a wonderful. When did this happen? There's a noticeable difference in the versions, according to xplorer2. X4's version:
and X5's:
I can no longer load X4's version; only v. 6.0.0 comes up, so I can't compare. But FN now works properly in X4, too, so Corel must have done something to address this. Cool.
Normally I'd place the PDF into Illustrator and use 'Flatten Transparency' with the 'Convert Fonts To Outlines' option to create vectors for the missing fonts. However this particular PDF file seems to have been saved with the 'Preserve Illustrator Editing' setting, so when I place it into Illustrator the illustrator data is read and I get live artwork - with the fonts replaced - instead of something I can work with, meaning that I can't replicate the type I need. Â I've tried importing the PDF into inDesign and resaving as a new PDF - but Illustrator is not fooled by this clumsy and desparate ruse, and again treats the file as editable artwork with the missing fonts replaced. Â How can I force Illustrator to ignore the editable capabilities of the file and just convert the fonts to outlines?
Im working with a clients file and being told Im missing some fonts. There is text ALL OVER this thing and it will be a major headache to see where the font problems are located. When I open a file like this in InDesign where a font is mssing, its highlighted in large pink boxes that stand out real easy. Does Illustrator have a similar feature?
I dont want to mess anything up...can you please tell me to put some new fonts (ZIP FILES)...( i have them on my desktop and have copied them to my fonts file but they dont show up in photoshop or the fonts file?
I just got CS4 and I need to install a font in it.I'm quite new at the whole Photoshop thing so I have no idea what anything does.I Googled the font and then I downloaded it on winRAR,which I have no idea how to use either other than the extract thing;I beleive it went to Temporary Files.Just wondering if its possible to install it on CS4 and how.
I installed this plugin - extracted and its a truetype file - Jsomething is the name. How do i open this in photoshop CS2 and get to working on 3d texts.
I have Vista operating system and for whatever reason when I try to install new fonts and filters for CS3 they aren't compatible. Is there a patch I can download or do I have to change my operating system back to XP?
While installing X5 it seems to get stuck while installing fonts and clipart ! My tower is making all these orgasmic sounds, but after a while it sounds like a scratched record making all the same sounds continuously. The gauge that shows me how far the download is proceeding seems to get stuck at the 25% mark.
We just installed AutoCAD 2012 on a machine that was running 2006. (32 bit on Windows XP Pro).
We opened a file that was created in 2006 and the Text is missing from the file. I tried to create a new file and when I start typing text, nothing happens.
I installed the service pack update and hot fix and still doesn't work. I've tried re-booting and nothing happens. I tried to go in and migrate the tools from 2006 but it was already done.Â
note, that this has also been installed on another computer and everything worked fine.
OS X 10.4.11, ran FontNuke. Fonts are available for use in InDesign and Illustrator as well as the rest of the system. All fonts were available a few days ago, now missing fonts from 'Fe' - 'Z'. I have all of them from 'A' to 'Fe'. No font manager but Font Book. Need to update an ad for a client using the Helvetica font family.
I have installed these fonts in Windows 2000 and Adobe Photoshop CS and for some reason it is giving me the error message "The following fonts are missing for text layer...etc".
I have installed CS4 Suite. I opened in photoshop some documents created in cs3. A client wanted a different font so I highlighted the text and selected the font window as I used to do in CS3 and previous versions and used the down arrow to toggle through the fonts when I got a ping and the fonts would not move to the next font in the list or go back.
Notes: the window was blank, and when I clicked on the pull down window I could see all the fonts I selected one and the font in the document changed.
So I up arrowed back to the font and the same thing happens.
It would appear that some fonts are not compatible with CS4?
I have about 30 or so fonts that will not work with any CS4 product, but all other software programs see and uses these fonts fine.
I accidently deleted some fonts that are required for a project that I'm working on. My question is, is there anywhere I can go within the document to be able to retieve the vital information? All I need is the name of the specific fonts I used. Also I use FontAgent Pro 4 and it says it has a type of auto activation of fonts needed. Will this work with cs4 when a document needs certain fonts required to kick in?Â
I've got about 700 fonts in my FontBook™ and they show up in all my programs (including Illustrator® and even my lowly mac text editor) except Photoshop®.
For some reason there are no fonts listed after "p" except for one single "v" font. Anyone have a clue why? I find it difficult to believe that PhotoshopCS would set a limit and that doesn't explain why it would add a single "v" font.
I have installed CS4 on my XP desktop after uninstalling CS2 completely and I am now having some font missings from the applictation. Although the font name like "Arial Black" already exist on the PC but its not finding it. When I open an existing Indesign CS2 file( I am getting an error message saying few fonts are missing and then a find a font box coming up with missing font names marked with yellow !. I dont know how to add these fonts back into the CS4. Someone advised me to delete all "adobefnt*.LST" files but this did not work either for me.Please can you advise how to do this?
Few days ago I opened a file in corel x6 and bitstream font navigator found missing fonts and installed them. After that I found that a lot of my fonts are partly missing and I mean for example Arial has only Italic and Bold Italic but no Regular or Normal, Bold and Italic... That happens with a lot of my fonts.
I'm with win7 64 bit and cdrX6 + font navigator 64.
We have been using Comic Sans MS true font in AutoCAD since version 2000 all the way to 2009 LT without any font problems when generating drawings in PDF format (standard DWG to PDF. pc3 plot). Now with AutoCAD 2010 LT some symbols no longer work (diameter for one). I can take the same dwg file to AutoCAD 2009 LT and not have the problem. I converted the text to ISOCPEUR true font and the symbols work. It seems to be related to the COMIC SANS MS font. I hate to think that our library of company standard details will all need to be converted to another font type, plus any older drawings as needed.
The attached file is what I see when opening the TEXT TEST.PDF plot file.
A row of dots appears in the lines of text that contain the missing symbol. I am using Adobe Reader 9 to view the pdf file.
I have a question about fonts. I have a PS doc. that a client sent me for some revising. When I open the .psd there several missing fonts.
Is there a way to Identfy those fonts by there name for refrence in finding them online? I found a nice little site for Identfying fonts but you have to answer at least 12 questions. And with so many fonts this could take hours.
Last I checked, Arial was a default font and I have always had it on my system. It's still there too. Why is CS2 being wonky about this? Â Every text layer has a little yellow triangle and harasses me about changing the font which if it does, I wouldn't know since it just changes it back to what I had before anyway.
I have created a design with two fonts that I used, but when I open that design now is shows that the 2 fonts are now missing and wants to substitute for another font, I designed the logo about 8 months ago, I have looked in my Fonts folder in Control Panel as well as Font Navigator, but they are not there, this happens a lot with other designs as well.
When I call the BlockReference's GeometricExtents, it throw a eInvalidExtents exception. After some check, I found when the drawing have some fonts that not exist in my computer the exception occur or it works find.
I have linotype and i often type things in and scroll thru to see what font looks best. However, There are are a lot of fonts that are not available to PS cs5. Some of these fonts have Adobe at the design of their manes. They did not exist previous to me installing PS so i figure these are specifically made by Adobe fonts.  So why are these fonts not available in PS? Do i need a better font manager?
