Nobody here has any way to tell you that, and Apple itself never provides this kind of info.  Make sure you tell them you want it here:

(Even on a desktop/laptop Mac with the full version of OS X Ethiopic currently requires installing 3rd party software.  I can provide the source if you are interested)

  • Install Foreign Language Fonts

    Hello,
    I am trying to install foreign language unicode fonts (Japanese) on my Macbook Pro. In particular, I am trying to install these fonts: http://www.dennybritz.com/ttf30.zip. The fonts install fine under Windows.
    However, Mac OS X does not recognize them as unicode or Japanese fonts. The font name contains weird characters and I cannot use them when typing in Japanese.
    Any suggestions?
    Thank you,
    Denny

    Denny, I tried installing the two “marugo” fonts from the archive using Font Book, and they installed fine. I then tried using them: the katakana came out OK while typing, but not the kanji — however, kanji typed in a standard Apple Japanese font could be copied and pasted, and the font could then be changed to one of those in the archive.
    I suspect that the problem is that these fonts date back to 2000, and that they were made for Windows; the reason that the font names appear strange is because the character set of the font names is encoded in Shift JIS, while the bytes in those names are treated as being MacRoman under Mac OS X. (Their intended names can be seen [here|http://www.wazu.jp/gallery/Fonts_Japanese.html] — search for “EPSON” in that page.) The font files would likely need to be modified (using an appropriate tool, e.g. FontForge) to work as expected under Mac OS X.

  • How do you install a sound font (.sf2) onto Garageband 10?

    I've been looking all over the place to figure this out, but I've found nothing. How do you install a .sf2 file onto garageband 10? I used to be able to install it using the DLS music device, but as far as I know, that's not in Garageband 10.

    I am seeing the DSL music device in the Audio Units section of the Smart Controls. But maybe it is a left-over from GarageBand 11.
    Open the Smart Controlds and click the Audio Units > Instrument brick.
    Then select "Au Instruments > Apple".
    But I did not check, if soundfonts still will work this way. Tell us, when you try.
    Regards
    Léonie
    I nearly forgot - if you have not already done so, you need to enable the Audio Units in the GarageBand Preferences, in the Audio/Midi brick, Effects:

  • How do you install to the Font Book?

    Im mostly a PC user and have been informally designated as the "tech guy" at work that is all Mac based and we are having serious font problems
    We are a newspaper and we need to be able to have the same fonts on every computer. its only a general handful of the more used ones like Times, Garamond, Helvetica, etc... We have a ton of fonts that were pretty much collected over the years. From what i can tell, they all seem to be installed in the Font Book and what i want to do is put them all on the other computers.
    I do the option to export the fonts then install them to the other computers but it seems like it only installs the ones it wants to, or will not install all the parts of a single font like installing the Italic but not the Bold.
    Basically its a total mess and im exhausted trying to figure out what im doing wrong to something that seems so simple. Does anyone else ever experience this? Are there maybe any better font management programs out there that are hopefully free? We have tried Extensis Suitcase and FontAgent Pro and both just make it more confusing. Just need some major help

    Are you really not able to type it right here on this site like I can below?  The top row of keys is
    (HM QWERTY) ճւերտյւիոպ
    (Western QWERTY) խվէրդեըիոբ
    I am wondering if you are perhaps trying to type into MS Word?  That app tends to be defective.  If so, try selecting the text and setting the font to Mshtakan, which is a complete Armenian font that comes with OS X.

    These are user to user help forums.  To tell Apple you want more fonts for Thai, go here:

    But I suspect this is likely one of those things for which you will always have to use a full computer rather than a iPad.

  • How do I install multiple languages for Photoshop Elements 12

    How do I install 2 languages on Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 so that my father can use it in Spanish and if he needs help, I cans switch it to English? Windows version.

    In photoshop cs2 record the spell check action:
    1. Create a new document and type a word you know is misspelled
    2. Go to Window>Actions
    3. At the bottom of the actions palette press the Create New Set button
    4. At the bottom of the actions palette press the Create New Action button
    5. Press Record, go to Edit>Check Spelling, press Done on the spell check dialog and click on the Stop Recording button at the bottom of the actions palette
    6. Save your action set to somewhere like your desktop using the Save Actions from the actions palette fly-out menu.
    In the photoshop elements 12 editor in the Expert mode
    1. Go to window>Actions and load the spell check action from the fly-out menu on the actions panel
    2. Click on the name of the action (not the name of the action set) and press Play to play the action.
    The check spelling action should work in pse 12 just as check spelling does in photoshop cs2

You are very kind for helping me. Have a wonderful weekend!

  • How can i install more korean fonts for mac book pro

    If so, just do a google search for korean unicode fonts.

  • How do you use edge web font in Edge Reflow?

    By default, I don't have a lot of fonts. It's just viewing a few of them.
    How can you get the web font for Edge Reflow? Can you use font from fontbook?
    Is there a way to download Edge Web Font?

    Above: using Brandon Grotesque (web use font) does not display the correct font.
    I'm using Typekit and have an internet connection. If I switch to a "desktop use" font, it shows up, so I'm guessing the "web use" only fonts won't show in Reflow. A little frustrating when you're trying to get an accurate preview/determine best font styling because of the back-and-forth workflow.
    Above: using Source Sans Pro (desktop use font) does display the correct font.

  • How do I install a language XPI globally and make it the default language?

    I am using Firefox on unices and various Linux distributions (the less common ones). Installing Firefox is easy, but it is always in English. I get most of my interfaces (gnome, libreoffice, gimp, etc) in my preferred translation simply by setting the proper locale (export LANG=xy_XY.UTF-8) before starting Xorg. I found and downloaded my preferred language pack for firefox, which comes in an XPI archive. Opening that XPI file in Firefox (via an URL of file:///path/to/file/langpack.xpi) works smoothly, the translation gets installed under the user's own profile and it shows up in the add-ons (under the new category: Languages). Unfortunately, I still see no way in Firefox preferences to set this added translation as the default. Firefox still starts with the English interface. On SeaMonkey, there is a combobox on the Appearance panel that allows me to select the language of the interface from the list of installed/available languages. I cannot find such option on the panels of Firefox. So far, I had to install a language-changer add-on to be able to set the interface to my native locale. Even though my users never need to switch to any other locales.
    Q1., Once a language xpi is installed, how do I set the interface to use that language?
    Q2., How do I install the language xpi and make it the system-wide default, so that all my users see Firefox starting with the native (non-English) interface?
    I found a handful of description for Q2, but they appear to be outdated and do not work. These include the -install-global-extension argument to Firefox, placing the xpi file as it was downloaded into the "extensions" folder, placing the xpi file renamed to the extension ID into the "extensions" folder, unzipping the contents of the xpi into a subfolder of the "extensions" folder named as the extension ID. Please note, these attempts might have failed because I placed the extension NOT where it was supposed to go. The instructions refer to the global extension folder as <installation folder>/extensions, but on my system no such folder exists. Firefox seems to get installed into /usr/local/lib/firefox and there is no "extensions" subfolder there in. However, there is a "browser/extensions" subfolder, but placing my XPI there did not trigger any effect. Also, I manually created the "extensions" subfolder in /usr/local/lib/firefox and moved the xpi there (on various names, unzipped and in a whole) without the expected result.
    Any suggestion is very much appreciated!
    My goal is to install the firefox package, then run something from the command line resulting the non-English translation in the downloaded XPI becoming the system-wide default for all users. A step forward would be to know for certain where that "extensions" folder must be on my specific OS. How do I query that?

    Excellent. These guides got me as far as installing my preferred language pack, which gets added to the add-ons automatically (assuming the user says yes to the appearing question when Firefox is started).
    However, the GUI does not change unless the user enters "about:config" and changes the locale.
    Is there a way to do this from the command line? I mean, changing the locale settings.
    And preferrably for all users. So even when new users get added and they start Firefox the first time, they see it appearing with the preferred locale and not in English.
