CS3 is replacing missing fonts with Myriad

I am opening a file that uses some fonts that are missing. OK, and I get the warning message to that effect. Normally CS3 shows the alert badge on the layer and if the layer is selected & type tool active, it will show you the missing font name in brackets. BUT now when the file opens, there are no alert badges and the fonts are all changed to Myriad!
I tried deleting my prefs but that didn't help.

We received similar issue before http://forums.adobe.com/message/3024227#3024227
Do you have Font Agent Pro? If you do, please remove Font Agent Pro plug-in from Photoshop Plug-ins folder and try.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,

Replace missing fonts with default fonts

I used fonts in my document that were not downloaded to my computer. I would like to replace these fonts with the default fonts that the computer automatically substituted. Is there any way to find out what fonts were used to make these substitutions?

I realize this is an old post, but maybe it will still help.
Was looking for the same functionality in Photoshop as in InDesign, where upon selecting "Replace all Missing Fonts", there would be a dialog box allowing me to choose the fonts to replace to. Instead, it just arbitrarily selects "Myriad Pro", regardless.
My solve, as clunky as it is, worked OK if your whole document uses the same font for everything. E.g. a font across multiple slides of a presentation.
Using the newer filtering options in the Layer menu, select the "Filter for Type layers".
Select all the type layers with the yellow triangle warning.
Go to your Type menu and select the font you want to replace to.
You will be prompted for each layer to confirm the change, get ready to hit "OK" a lot of times.
Click on the "Filter for Type Layers" option again to restore your full menu list.
Should take care of the issue.
With that said, this is a feature request that is well overdue!

Replace missing font with font of my choice in Photoshop CS5

I'm using Photoshop CS5. How can I replace all instances of a missing font with a font of my choice?

I am having the same problem. From what I read around the web, there is supposed to be a dialogue box which opens to ask which font you want to use. I don't get a dalogue box, it simply replaces the missing fonts automatically with Myriad Pro without asking which font I want to use. If anyone knows how to get the dialogue box to appear, I'd appreciate the help.
I am using CC.
Thanks!

How to replace missing fonts with a specific font (and not a suggested font)

Hello all!
Looking to replace missing fonts within my document - but the drop-down selection only gives a couple of suggestions, none of which are the font I want to use.
How can I replace the fonts with a font of my choosing?
I've attached an image to give more clarity - notice how the drop-down only gives the option to select between 3 fonts without an option to select your own font - many thanks!

Same problem! The only solution I found is to prepare a textbox in a new file with all the font you need. Copy and past in the file you need to change font. Go to type/risolve missing font. Will open the same window in the pic you pasted. Then you find the font in the dropdown menu. I have to change all the Helvetica family ...it's a long go. If some one could save me. Hope to be usefull to your problem.

Why can't I replace missing fonts with my desktop fonts?

I just updated to CC 2014 which implemented the new Typekit features. Now "Find Font" is "Resolve missing fonts..." which only allows missing fonts to be replaced with Typekit fonts or other fonts already found in the document.
Am I the only one who finds this ridiculous? I have a document with the 'Avenir Next Pro' font missing, but have no way to change all instances to the "Avenir Next" font that I have installed on my computer.
The only thing that seems to work, is to select each instance of the missing font and then change the font in the character menu. Or to change one text layer and then use "Resolve missing fonts..." to select the font that has now become an option that
it exists in the document. Both processes work, but they're heavy handed and leave a lot of room for human error. Plus they're frickin' annoying!
What gives, Adobe?
- a confused and grumpy, lazy designer.

No you're not the only one who finds this ridiculous. Font replacement in other Adobe apps works absolutely fine, so why is the Photoshop team intent on making this into a difficult useless feature?

Auto replace missing fonts durring script place

I have a script that runs on startup that places a word document in a new indesign document. The problem is that if there are fonts in the word document that indesign can't find, then we get a message saying there are missing fonts and a series of javascript errors because there's a dialog open.
Is there an option to have it automatically replace missing fonts with a specified font?
InDesign CS5
Windows

Form my understanding you can't replace missing fonts until the document is open. To avoid the missing fonts modal dialog, you can set
app.scriptPreferences.userInteractionLevel = UserInteractionLevels.NEVER_INTERACT;
before opening the document and then make your font substitutions. Don't forget to reset the userInteractionLevel when your script is done!

Nor can I - in Typekit, anyways.

How to replace system fonts with type 1 version

Can system font Helvetica be replaced with the PostScript Type 1 (Older) Version?
Can a system font be deleted?

We are trying to pring Helvetica to a PostScript Level 1 device

to our output device as we would loose all editing capabilities.
Our device will not accept TrueType or OpenType fonts only Type 1 fonts.

Frame9: Find/replace missing fonts?

Search function doesn't seem to work, so I hope you'll bear with me.
When I open a frame book/documents, I get a message in the FrameMaker Console: "The "<foo>" Font is not available. "<bar>" will be used in this session.
Question: In InDesign, there's a font find/substitute feature (I don't recall the proper wording offhand). Is there something similar in Frame 9? (I've looked but can't find one.)

Even though our production environment is FM7.1/Unix, presumably opening in FM9/Win, cleaning up fonts, and re-saving as MIF would allow subsequent opening in FM7.1 (or would it ... I can conceive of Unicode font encoding issues arising).
If you ever need a workflow that crosses the Unicode barrier (between FrameMaker versions 7.2 and 8) you have to test everything, since the additional power of Unicode encoding may introduce stuff, that will get lost in previous versions.
Of course, for those without FM9 or 10, the classical way to handle Missing Fonts was to save as MIF, and use a text editor to perform global search&replace on the phantoms. There are just too many places for fonts to hide to chase them down from within pre-9 Frame.
IMO, the even simpler and almost always good enough method was to just switch off the »Save Unknown Font Names« in File > Preferences before opening and saving such files. This replaces those font references with the default font (which in turn can be set in the maker.ini, if you really need something special).
With three actions File > Open/Save/Close All Files in Book (press the Shift key before clicking the menu) even complete books are cleaned-up quite easily.

Don't replace missing fonts

Usually when you don't have a font and you click on a text section it shows a message "You don't have a font blah blah do you want to replace font XX with font blah blah".
Today I worked on two psd's and both had the "Some fonts are missing and will be automatically replaced" message when I tried to open them. I had 3-4 missing fonts but only 1 of them was replaced automatically (when I clicked on the section the name of the font was different than the original) and the even stranger thing is I had other text sections with that font that were with the original font.

I hope you have understood what my problem is and have any ideas on how to solve it or explain this strange to me behaviour.

I am having the same problem with not displaying fonts that I have been using. I was sent to this link Font issues in FreeHand MX which suggests that I delete the ttf as in font.ttf, but I have been unable to figure out how to do that. Any suggestions?

Finding and replacing Missing Fonts

Dear All,
I need to find the missing fonts in the InDesing document and replace them into correct fonts using JavaScript.
Pl. help.
Thanks,
ArcRaj

Ole,
For a moment you had me rejoicing (I hadn't tried this in 5.0.3 yet). But my joy was short-lived, as I still can't get it to work. For instance,
app.findTextPreferences.appliedFont =
app.activeDocument.fonts.item ('Swiss 721 BT\tBold');
still tells me that "The requested font is not available." That font is not installed on my system but is used in the active document.
Absent fonts seem to confuse ESTK. Getting some properties of this non-installed font leads to different results:
-- app.activeDocument.fonts.item ('Swiss 721 BT\tBold').index
gives -1. Don't know what that means, but there's a result and no error.
-- app.activeDocument.fonts.item ('Swiss 721 BT\tBold').fontFamily
gives Swiss 721 BT. Result as expected. (It's not the case that to return this property ESTK doesn't bother to check whether the font exists: ...('Olav Kvern\tBold').fontFamily produces an error.)
-- app.activeDocument.fonts.item ('Swiss 721 BT\tBold').location
doesn't do much apart from repeating the property name. No error, nothing in the console; just "location" in the staus bar at the bottom of ESTK's app window.
Am I missing something?

[JS CS3] Referencing a missing font in a paragraph style

I'm stuck on trying to figure out how to reference a font name in a paragraph style if the font is missing. I've got: for (myCounter=0; myCounter<app.documents.item(0).paragraphStyles.length; myCounter ++) { myParagraphStyle=app.documents.item(0).paragraphStyles.item(myCounter); if (myParagraphStyle.name.indexOf("[")!=0){ if (myParagraphStyle.appliedFont.name == myFindFontName){ myParagraphStyle.appliedFont = app.fonts.item(myChangeFontName); }}} The "myParagraphStyle.appliedFont.name" reference works properly as long as the font used in the paragraph style is present on the system. If the font is missing, then InDesign doesn't seem to "know" its name for me to reference in this manner. Does anyone know a way to do this? Thanks.

Bummer! Thanks for letting me know, so I can stop banging my head against the wall trying to figure it out.
Your approach with the dummy font is clever, but won't help me in this case. I'm trying to automate the "Find Font" process for a group of users. They've used a particular group of fonts for thousands of files, and are switching to a different family of fonts. They want to have ONLY the new family installed. So I wanted to create a script they could run the first time they open each file that would find each old font and replace it with the new font. My script works great for all the text in the file, but not the Paragraph and Character styles.
Can anyone think of another approach? I'm out of ideas on this one.

Replace missing font

Director loads a project and tells me my system is missing
Arial MT Black. It tells me that it is replacing it with a default
font. It doesn't tell me which font this is. It would be really
helpful if there was a way I could find out what this font is.
Pretty please

If the font is replaced on the stage highlight the text,
right click and choose font, should show the current font being
used.
