Fonts don't work correctly when opening illustrator 5 eps in illustrator 6

When I open an eps file in illustrator 6, which I received from our graphic designer (who is using 5), the fonts don't work correctly. We have purchased VistaSans and when I try to open file, it says fonts not found so they have been substituted, but when I open illustrator, the fonts are there. When I try to change text from VistaSansReg to VistaSansSCBold the bold doesn't apper in illustrator or when saving to PDF - however, when you click the changed text in illustrator, it does show the bold font has been selected.

HI,
It is an open type font so should work, but it looks like the problem is that it hasn't installed correctly in Illustrator. I am using Windows 7 so right-clicked fonts and clicked install. Fonts appear in fonts area of control panel and install in disabled when font is viewed.  they work correctly in other apps, such as Word
When I vew the VistaSans fonts (in existing file) in Illustrator, they appear in the fonts drop-down, but have an asterisk beside them (i.e. not installed) so how do I get them to install correctly in Illustrator? Font isn't appearing in Photoshop either.

  • Fonts don't show up when opening Pagemaker 7 on MAC

    I don't normally use Pagemaker, but a client insists on us using his Pagemaker files. I can open up his files in Pagemaker 7 under the classic mode, but only 9 or so fonts show up, mostly Caslon. I have a MAC PowerPC G5 computer and open the file in classic. File opens just fine but no fonts. Help! My fonts are all in the system 9 fonts folder.

    I finally figured out that the problem was not with Pagemaker and so I went to the Apple website and found out that fonts in the fonts folder in system 9 must be loose and not in folders. That made some of them show up and the rest have slightly different names such as Times New Roman instead of TimesNewRoman without spaces. Thought it might help someone else in the same boat.

  • PS CS5.1 suddenly stops working correctly when opening another file

    Hi, I have the Creative Suite cs5.1 student version (had it for about a year now), and now recently I have started to encounter a strange bug with Photoshop.
    Sometimes when I have been working in PS for a while and then open another file, the photoshop starts acting weird, resulting in the file looking like this: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/14462293/wtf.png
    And if I try to paint anything, it will look pixelated like in this file:  https://dl.dropbox.com/u/14462293/wtf2.png and if I use ctrl+z after painting the paint just looks like this:  https://dl.dropbox.com/u/14462293/wtf3.png
    https://dl.dropbox.com/u/14462293/wtf3.pngthe 2 last named effects will also apply for any images opened before this occurrence, and it happens for any file type.
    I have checked my video card drivers, and they are up to date, so that's not a problem (My graphics card is ATI Radeon 5700 series). I've also run a throughout virus scan with Norton without it finding anything.
    Any advice would be appreciated

    I have checked my video card drivers, and they are up to date, so that's not a problem (My graphics card is ATI Radeon 5700 series).
    Actualyl they still might be. Having the latest and newest is not always the most reliable. According to Noel Carboni, the best driver for ATI cards and any version of PS at this point is Catalyst 12.8, not the latest 12.10. So in fact you may simply need to downgrade to fix these problems.

  • Youtube widget produces videos that don't work correctly when played in iWeb

    Get a flashing video when embedding a Youtube video in an iWeb window using th Youtube widget.
    Video plays OK in Youtube.
    Used iMovie to prepare the Quicktime movie and used settings recommended for Youtube uploading.

    The YouTube widget stopped working when MobileMe was discontinued 2 years ago. The widget needed the MMe servers in order to work.
    To add a youtube video go to YouTube and get the embed code for that video.  Back in iWeb use a regular HTML widget with the embed code.

  • Power Manager idle timers don't work correctly when set to dim the display in 15 minutes

    Instead of dimming the display to 0 on AC power, Power Manager dims it to 4, which is a normal setting when on DC power. Then when the laptop is resumed by tapping a key, it "restores" the brightness to an incorrect setting of 15, and a few seconds later back to 8, which is the correct setting. I haven't noticed this problem when setting to dim the display below 15 minutes, but the restoration of screen brightness onscreen notification is displayed twice in both cases.

    Hey there lenssd9,
    It seems strange that the Power Manager would be behaving this way, although speaking with some colleagues they also have encountered similar occurences- but instead describing it as if "the engine were warming up with a high idle, and then returning to a standard idle."
    What I can recommend is to first, ensure that your Power Manager Software is up to date. And then try adjusting the configuration within the Power Manager. If you will, see if you encounter this with a idle display under 15 minutes.
    Thank You lnssd9, I look forward to your response.

  • SCOT don't work correctly when I send mail from Workflow

    Hi.
    I setting from SU01 the mail of users. I send an email from Workflow, I find this mail in SCOT.
    But the SCOT don't send the mail to user.
    Can I solve it?
    Regards
    Angela

    Hi Angela,
    I don't think your problem lies in SAP. You need to check with the exchange guys to see if the e-mail you send is relayed in the exchange server. Depending on your sending address it is possible the exchange server will not send it on. Depending on the place the exchange server is, there is a possibility there still is a firewall which blocks smtp communication.

  • How can I choose a font besides Myriad Pro as default when opening existing PDFs in Illustrator?

    I already know how to do this for new documents.
    But I work with PDFs generated in AutoCAD.
    When opening these files in Illustrator, the default font is always set to Myriad Pro.
    How can I substitute my desired font for Myriad when opening EXISTING files, short of copy/pasting into a new file? That workaround is just as time-consuming as resetting the font every time I work on a new document.
    Illustrator has to be referencing something when defaulting to this font. It seems unbelievable that this setting cannot be altered.
    Any ideas out there?

    We get autocad dies from a variety of sources, quite often the font is .txt which susbtitutes to myriad. I use find font  to substitue myriad to arial.
    Since no doucment is open, changing the New document profiles does not help to get rid of Myriad.
    You can record an action for this and set a hot key. The action is pretty fast

  • CMYK gradient maps don't work correctly in Photoshop CS 4

    Gradient maps built with CMYK colors in Photoshop don't work correctly in CS4.  For one particular client I often use a brushed steel background. To control color shifts on the press I used a gradient map blending from C0 M0 Y0 K0 to C40 M20 Y20 K100. This has worked great in the past, but once you open that gradient map in CS4 and start editing that gradient at all, even if you edit it back to the original CMYK numbers, the colors shift drastically, and if you watch the info palette, the colors get totally remapped to a different black. I can go in a reset the black to the C40 M20 Y20 K100 mix, but it doesn't work. When I go back in, it completely changes them.
    Since this works fine in CS3 and not in CS4, is this a program bug? I'm not doing anything differently.
    It was a great way of controlling neutral gray mixes (and other color mixes) for CMYK printing. Is there a fix for this? Adobe, is anyone addressing this bug? I've read other threads on this, but with no solutions.

    I couldn't attach the .psd files, so I uploaded here for reference:
    http://www.kentbingham.com/gradientmap-error.zip

    I have not gone back to check how this is handled in CS3 yet I could duplicate your problem in CS4.  The changing of numbers in the CMYK looks like it has to do with the color mangement settings in Photoshop.
    I was able to make sure the numbers input to the gradient map did not chang.  I did this by going to Edit>Assign Profile  and then clicked the option "Don't Color Manage this Document"    
    This may not solve your problem directly yet it does indicate that the problem you have (or that Adobe has) is related to how the color management is being handled.
    So one question would be are you using the "exact" color management settings in CS4 as you did in CS3 and were those in place when you imported the file into CS4.  If not, and if you did not have the correct warning options set, there may have been a color setting change of which you were not aware.
    While I was able to keep the original settings from changing in the Gradient Map, there was still a problem in CS4 where the Lab values would change (and the appearance on the LCD screen) after doing any color picker editing and changing the CMYK values back to 40 20 20 100.  This definetly seems related to the color model/probile/management system in place.  So it appears that even though I can get the CMYK numbers to stay and not change, there is still a bug when making no changes to the color management settings, and the CMYK values are the same, that the Lab values and the appearance on the screen change.
    Hope you can get Adobe's attention.  Looks like a bug to me.

  • The only time the sound/speaker and mic don't work is when I answer or make a call

    The only time the sound/speaker and mic don't work is when I answer or make a call. They both work fine for everything else. This has been going on for over a month. AT&T said it's Apple and Apple said it's AT&T. I've been around that cycle twice. 
    When I dial a call, I can see the status words on the screen but can't hear the ringing. If the person I'm calling answers, my screen will show the call was connected and the call timer will begin but I can't hear anything and they can't hear me. If one of us doesn't end the call, the timer keeps going and I'm being 'charged' for dead air. (Of course, one of us disconnects so mins/cost isn't an issue, I'm just adding the info in case it helps solve the problem.) If they don't answer, the call will go to their greeting but I can't hear it and wouldn't be able to leave a message anyway because my voice isn't going through. However, they will get a voice mail alert and see that I called but no message was recorded.
    If some one tries to call me they will hear ringing but when I answer, they can't hear me and I can't hear them. If I don't answer, they will hear my greeting and can leave a message. I can retrieve and hear my voice mail. Trying speaker phone and headsets didn't change anything for calls out nor for calls in. 
    I have 4.3.3 and have synched, reset, rebooted, turned things on and off and off and on and took the SIM card out of the phone and out of it's tray and put it back in. I've done all that several times in just about every combination and order possible. 
    Hopefully the following will provide good clues:  On only about three of the many attempts I've made to get it to work correctly that included taking out the SIM card, I could make and/or get one or two calls with no trouble but then the problem comes back. Also, when I swapped the SIM card with another iPhone4 on my plan, the other phone would work with my SIM card but my phone still would not work with the other SIM card. The last fact makes me think it is an Apple issue. I'll go to an Apple store (genius) this weekend. Will I be wasting my time and gas? Anybody have any experience with this problem?

    Let me try and address some of your questions.  I'm only on a pc, so a few of these answers might be slightly different on a Mac, but not too different (such as control click rather than right click).
    First, when you buy something on your phone, be it apps or music, it's transferred from your phone to your Mac when you sync your phone.  So those apps should now be in you iTunes library. ( IF for some reason you can't find them there, you should be able to download them again, either onto your phone or through iTunes.  On your phone, go to the App Store > Updates and you'll see a "Purchased" link at the top of the page, you can view all purchased apps here and redownload them.  In iTunes, you can go to Store > Check for available downloads. )
    Whenever you plug your phone in, it should create a backup of everything you have on the phone.  This is how, provided restoring your phone as a new device doesn't fix the issue (more on this later), you can put all of your music and apps onto the new phone.  You can always plug your phone into your Mac and the first thing it should do when it syncs is create a backup.   If you want to be sure, you can right click on your device in iTunes (on a pc) or I assume control click on a Mac and select "backup".
    The genius will take care of the sim card and setting up your phone, however you will have to put all of your music and apps on it, unless you ask the genius, I've never bothered since I know how to do this.
    You should have no problems restoring from a backup if they give you a new phone.  However, it's probably safest to try and create a backup of your last phone backup before you restore it as a new device.   I suggest you refer to http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1414 for more information about that.
    I've had no problems with my new phone so far.
    I'll try to keep checking this thread if you have any other questions or need more clarification.
    Edit: I should say we never did figure out what exactly was wrong with my phone.  The only thing I can think of was that it got a lot hotter than the phone it replaced, and also the phone I just got yesterday to replace the malfunctioning one.  But otherwise they saw no problems with the hardware, but acknowledged it must have been the hardware since we tried everything else.  Also I would go with a list of all the things you tried with this phone, for your own reference and the genius's, especially if you're not confident in your tech skills Showing the genius that you've tried: different sim cards, updating the software, restoring it from a backup, and now restoring it as a new device, should convince them that you've done everything you could, and the only other answer is hardware problem.
    Also if you don't already have one, make a genius appointment ASAP.  Most stores are very busy and their appointments fill up fast.  I always suggest making an appointment as early as possible, hopefully before the retail store hours when they've only got techs there because they usually are less stressed and have a bit more time to spend with you.  The easiest way to make an appointment is to download the Apple Store app.  It detects the closest Apple store from you and makes it quite easy to schedule a genius.

  • Shortcuts of the 'Character Panel' don't work correctly!!

    Hi !
    I found that those shortcuts of the 'Character Panel' don't work correctly in Photoshop CC.
    For example :
    Press [cmd(ctrl)+ shift + >]
    →Increse or decrease the font-size with a step of 33.74px every time I press the shortcut.
    Previous version of Photoshop just changes the font-size with a step of 2px.
    The same problem occurs while using the shortcuts to control tracking or leading etc... Obviously the 'step' is not correctly.This could be a critical problem for me.
    Aonther problem is if you try to set the font-size to 100,it will say this 'A value between 0.01 pixel and 1296.00 Pixels is required.'
    All things goes crazy.. Anyone facing the same problem?

    Between this and the "more than 6 lines of text screws up a Photoshop PDF" bug, CS6 is practiaclly usless for any project using type.

  • What can I do if my function keys don't work correctly?

    QuestionWhat can I do if my function keys don't work correctly?
    AnswerFunction keys can mean a few different things. You might be having a problem with the F-keys near the top of your keyboard (F1, F2, etc.), the secondary functions of the F-keys (toggling the wireless or touchpad, for example), or special media keys on your laptop.
    There are a few steps you can take to try to resolve these issues. Try the suggestions listed below in the order presented. If a step fixes the problem, you're done! If a step doesn't fix your problem, continue to the next step.
    Understand the FN key
    First, ensure you understand how to use the FN key. In most newer models, the special utilities of the F-keys are used when you press the F-keys. To use the F-keys, you need to hold FN first. In older models, this was reversed. pressing the F-keys activated the F-keys. The special utilities of the F-keys are used while holding FN. If you're having trouble using your F-keys, try both with and without the FN key.
    Reinstall TVAP or Toshiba Flash Cards Utility
    Some models may use the Toshiba Value Added Package or the Toshiba Flash Cards Utility. Check the support site to see if these utilities are available for your model. If you see either listed, download and install it. Some models don't use these utilities; it's okay if you don't see either of them.

    Thank you so much wchp, this is brilliant. I have had this annoying problem for a long time. I eventually rang Mac support, they did not know how to fix the problem as you have suggested so they instigated many hardware replacements which eventually left my iMac severely crippled. They eventually replaced it with the latest model. But I spent two months working with a disabled computer which really interfere with my work.
    Your solution appears to have solved my problem, at least so far, but I am hopeful that it is a permanent fix. I hope that your suggestions are taken up by Apple support. This may solve many users problems and avoid Apple making expensive fixes that don't actually work.
    I thought that the new iMac would not have the 'Wake up from sleep by painting in the login window' problem but it did, this really annoyed me. Anyway now the problem appears to be solved, it's not I will repost and keep working on it. Thanks again.
