  • "After Effects Warning: Unable to create font." in CC12.1

    I just updated AE to 12.1, and now no fonts work in it.  I originally got the error "Unable to load font "^0" "Helvetica Neue," but got that one resolved only to get "After Effects Warning: Unable to create font."  This happens for any area of a comp that has text.  No video will display at all where I have text.
    The fonts are activated.  I did find that some of them had somehow turned off since yesterday.  I'm using FontExplorer X for font management.
    They worked just fine yesterday in 12.0.  Frustration factor high on this one.
    Thanks,

  • After Effects Warning: Unable to create font

    Hi,
    I just updated to After effects 13.1.1.3 and am now getting the dreaded "Unable to create font" warning. The thing is I am not using any fonts in the composition. It's just a straight gopro timelapse import.
    I have re-installed Verdana and Tahoma looks fine. I have run a font doctor and removed any duplicates and done a restart.
    Any ideas? You guessed it - it's urgent - I got a stupid deadline.
    thanks
    Keith

    And you get the warning on your Amiga 500 or Atari ST? Without exact system info and other technical details like screen settings, language settings and so on nobody can even guess. There are simply too many possible causes.

  • "After Effects warning: Unable to load font "^0" "Helvetica Neue"

    Today in attempting to run After Effects CC, I get the above error. -- Helvetica Neue IS installed on my system.
    After I click OK to the first error dialog, a seconf dialog comes up:
    "Cannot load font required for the After Effects Interface. Please replace the font or reinstall After Effects." -- Then a third dialog comes up: "After Effects can't continue: unexpected failure during application startup" -- Where do I get this mystery font? Or alternatively, HOW do I "reinstall After Effects?"
    Thanks for any help.

    Apparently I had to sign out then sign back in, via another CC app.
    Now I'm reinstalling After Effects CC.
    Why doesn't Application Manager check to see what apps are installed on load? -- That's the most basic form of app management, isn't it?

  • After Effects (v 12.2.0.52) warning: unable to create font

    Hi, I just installed After Effects 12.2.0.52 and get the error message: "After Effects warning: unable to create font." I'm running Windows 8 on a mac. I've looked in the forum but it seems like this issue should be resolved in the new update but for some reason it isn't.
    Thanks!

    Font issues can have a million causes and in your case there is probably something up with high-DPI support vs. the graphics driver, so updating the latter and checking your screen settings should be the first thing to do.

  • After Effects warning: Could not create the file '/Users/Library/Preferences/Adobe/After Effects/13.0/dummy

    I have just downloaded the trial After Effects CC. I'm running Mavericks 10.9.4 on my Macbook Pro.
    When I try to launch After Effects, this message appears:
    "After Effects warning: Could not create the file '/Users/Library/Preferences/Adobe/After Effects/13.0/dummy'"
    I have followed the advice from other posts on this issue regarding resetting all of the permissions in the Adobe folder in my library to read and write , but it doesn't change anything. I still get the same message when I try to launch the program. Moreover, there is no After Effects folder in my Adobe folder, even though it's clearly in my Applications folder.
    I also uninstalled After Effects and tried to reinstall it, but to no avail.
    I sure would like to give it a try, as I was planning on purchasing it, but this is just one more issue in a long irritating line of issues that have arisen since trying to download it from CC.
    Any help is much appreciated.
    Thanks.

    I am having this problem and this response does not make sense. I made the "Preferences" ,"Adobe" & "After Effects" folder along with the 10.0,11.0,13.0,13.2 folders all read/write. Can't seem to find an answer.

  • After effects warning could not create the file

    Hi,
    I am fairly new to After effects, (so new that I haven't managed to save a file). Can anyone help with this? I am running CS6 on an oldish mac pro, but flash and premiere run fine, and so does after effects, except it won't let me save, and instead comes up with this message: after effects warning could not create the file.
    I have even tried saving a file with just a jpeg in it, and it still won't let me.
    Any suggestions? I am a bit confused.

    When you save in AE, you're saving the project file -- which inclues all your work in the comp -- but you can't save the comp itself to a media file.  It doesn't work that way.  You have to export or use the AE Render Queue.
    I recommend spending some quality time here.

    Hi,
    I have had this problem also with CS6 and found a solution.  If I try to open a script UI panel with a project open, I get this message, but if I close the project and then launch the scripts, they write without hassle.  Then I re-open my project.  Hope that helps.

  • "Unable to Create Fonts" Messeage

    On my new laptop with Vista installed, After Effects CS3 was running fine until one day on startup it displayed only a pop-up saying "After Effects error Unable to Create Fonts". Clicking "ok" removes the popup but the program does not start up. The task manager reveals that the program is still running in the background but using little memory. Killing the process allows for trying to start the program again but the results are the same.
    I uninstalled the program and went back to 7.0 which started up fine just once and then displayed the same error.
    Is this a Vista compatibility problem? What actions can one take to resolve the problem?
    Thanks.
    PS I had similar problems with Premiere CS3 (albeit with a generic error message) and had to fall back to an older version, this however keeps running fine.

    Well, none of it really got me closer to resolving the problem. Thank you for the pointers anyway. Both AE and Premiere don't start up at all now. I ran the Adobe cleaner etc.
    I used to really love After Effects but I fail to see the appeal of a program that is this incompatible with the system it is installed on and the other programs that may be installed. I also don't get this incompatibility with fonts, as After Effects is supposed to be a compositing program, and as such highly suitable for creating titles for which one uses... fonts.
    Is Adobe dictating you to have AE and Premiere CS3 running exclusively on a machine all on their own?
    The programs are pretty much useless to me now.
    Maybe I need to set up my OS all anew, but I just don't have the time right now to back up all my settings etc.
    Thanks for the help so far but this CS3 business has proven to be a lot of trouble and extremely buggy.

  • "Unable to create font" error when starting After Effects CS4 (Windows Vista)

    Hi all
    I have read a hundred posts about the "unable to create font" message that appears when running After Effects in both CS4 and CS5 versions.
    On MAC, it seems that installing the Verdana fonts family is enough.
    On my PC running Windows Vista, i tried unsuccessfully :
    - uninstalled and reinstalled After Effects
    - installed all the fonts of the Adobe Font Folio v11
    - looked for the "AdobeFnt.lst" to delete it, found no such file in my whole hard drive
    - changed my system language to English (USA)
    Other CS4 softwares work.
    What can i do?

    See this page for some additional information about this error.
    > I forgot to mention that i also installed the 9.0.2 update. Didn't work either!
    You should also install the After Effects CS4 (9.0.3) update.

    Well Todd, seems the newest version has the same problem, or perhaps an unrelated issue. Just upgraded to Mavericks yesterday (10.9) and I'm running AE 12.1. Closed AE last night after working on a project successfully for 4 + hours, tried to get back to work this morning and I see the following error messages. Is this related?

    And what if you simply trash the whole prefs folder/ move it out of the way? AE should happily re-create everything with factory defaults. realyl sounds like one of your workspace files is damaged, perhaps due to a crash.
