Roboto font not available in certain applications and Openbox menu

I have downloaded Roboto TTF font from here and saved it in ~/.fonts.
After downloading it, I ran:
$ fc-cache -vf
After that, I changed the font in lxappearance and obconf and every single application I have tried so far uses it by default now except Openbox menu (window titles seem to work just fine) and Geany.
What can I do to fix this?
I really like the font and pretty much everything runs well except those two.
Note: tried placing those files in /usr/share/fonts/local, but nothing changed.

Tried to switch fonts in terminal (rxvt-unicode) and apparently that font is not available there either.
Any ideas?

  • Fonts - not available in MS applications

    I bought and downloaded a frutiger true type font, because it's used for my company's logo so i need to use it in a lot of documents etc. Loaded it and it appears in Font book. It's available in the trial version of iWorks that came pre-installed on my MacBook. But it doesnt appear in the font lists for MS Office 2004 - word, etc - which is what i predominantly use. Running Leopard 10.5.2 and i'm told that there re font issues with Leopard. Does anyone know how to get round this?

    Okay, that rules out Office's own cache files. On to the system cache files and Font Book.
    Follow the steps in Undoing Font Book. Note that you will lose any font collections you have created. Doing this will also clear the system's font cache files.
    The link above hasn't been updated for Leopard specifically yet, but others here have used the Tiger method and it appears to be the same for Leopard since it worked.

  • The Managed Metadata Service or Connection is currently not available. The Application Pool or Managed Metadata Web Service may not have been started. Please Contact your Administrator.

    Hi,
    I'm not able to access the term store. I get an below mentioned error.
    "The Managed Metadata Service or Connection is currently not available. The Application Pool or Managed Metadata Web Service may not have been started. Please Contact your Administrator. "
    Since this is happening on my local machine (Dev environment). I have full control on the term store and the all the site collections.
    Hence, this is not a permission issue.
    I have checked, the Metadata service is active on the machine. All the application pools in IIS is running.
    After reading one of the recommendation on internet, I created a new Managed Metadata Service.
    After which I was able access both (old and new) MMS from Central Admin only (highlight the MMS from manage service applications and click Manage ) and not from the site collection (term store management).
    Now again its not working after I did an IISRESET.
    The managed metadata service (Managed Metadata Service Connection) is grayed out.
    ULS Error says:
    Failed to create ManageLink for service proxy 'Managed Metadata Service'. Exception: System.TimeoutException: The request channel timed out attempting to send after 00:00:09.9999999. Increase the timeout value passed to the call to Request or increase the SendTimeout

    Hi Victoria,
    Thanks for your reply
    I tried making all the changes you had recommended and which are mentioned in the link you have provided.
    I tried making all possible combination of changes to the web.config and client.config files but it does not make any difference to the environment.
    One thing is that, my error in ULS logs has changed.

  • This User Profile Application's connection is currently not available. The Application pool or user profile service may not have been started

    Hi, we had installed SharePoint Service Pack 1 (SP1). And now the user profile service application is not available. Getting this
    Error "This User Profile Application’s connection is currently not available. The Application pool or user profile service may not have been started".
    How to troubleshoot the issue anh help/thoughts will be appreciated

    Not sure, if this will help, but in my case all of my services were up and running (including app pools) and also IISRESET did not help. So at that point, looking at the error message, I assumed that there is something wrong with the app pool (or app pool
    credentials) and went to CA --> Application Management --> Manage Service Applications and selected UPSA and under properties just created a new app pool to run under farm account (did not want to take any chances).
    As soon as the new app pool was provisioned, the service came back.

  • Font not available in Photoshop CS6 or Illustrator CS6 (Mac)

    I have installed the Frutiger font family in the font library. It appears in the drop-down menu in InDesign, but not Photoshop or Illustrator. How can I make the font available in these programs?

    It’s a ttf file – Frutiger. I’ve managed to get it into InDesign, but not Photoshop or Illustrator. Always seem to have problems with this font!

    I rented Hotel Transylvania from iTunes two days ago to watch tonight on Apple TV. I get an error message about not available in U.S. and it won't play. What gives?

    you may have inadvertantly purchased it from a non us itunes store section of itunes. go to expresslane.apple.com to get a refund and if you want to rent it again, on your computer itunes screen, scroll all the way to the bottom, and make sure the country indicator at the bottom right has the usa flag

  • In Pages 5.2, some fonts "not available", yet present in Font Book and working in other apps

    Using Pages 5.2, I open a document created in a previous version, and I get error messages about certain fonts within a font family being "not available" in OS X.  However, these supposedly unavailable fonts are present in Font Book and work just fine in all other apps running on OS X.  In fact, I still have the older version of Pages on my system, and it still finds the fonts without issue.  The specific fonts troubling me at the moment are Myriad Pro Semibold It and Myriad Pro Cond.  Pages 5.2 replaces them with Helvetica.  I have wasted hours of time trying to resolve this problem, and I am at a total loss.  What can I do?

    Like so many other thing is is probably gone. Why not use Pages 09 that has about 100 features more than Pages 5. If you haven't deleted it it should still be in Applications/iWork 09 folder.

  • Single Style of Font not Available in Any Adobe Programs

    I have been using Nofret for all of my business correspondence for years. All of a sudden within the last couple of weeks, one style, the Light Italic, refuses to show up in any of my Adobe programs. It is available in my Microsoft and Apple programs
    I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling the font in FontExplorer Pro, rebooting the applications...no go.
    I am using CS2 on a G4 PowerPC.
    Any clues as to why this single style would disappear when all of the other styles of that font are available? Can I get it back?

    Ok For some reason or another 2 days ago a font by the name of QuickSand was
    not appearing in my font choices through the program illustrator. So
    I uninstalled the font through the font manager and then why I tried to
    uninstall the font through my system folders (Windows 7)  I receive a dialog
    that the font was in use. That made me believe that somehow the system was
    stuck on retrieving the front through illustrator (which was the last
    program I used)  or through the font manager or somehow the font
    became corrupt. Hence, since you have already tried uninstalling the font
    through the font manger and that did not work delete the front from you
    system folder, but before you  do I hope you have a back up of that font it
    not make one first or download the font again from the net. Since you are
    using a Mac and I do as well there could be three locations in which you
    have chose to store your fonts at /Library/Fonts:
    There's also /System/Library/Fonts.
    Fonts are divided up into different folders so that Mac OS X can keep its
    own collection of fonts (/System/Library/Fonts), you can install additional
    fonts for all users (/Library/Fonts), and any user can have personal fonts
    as well (/Users/username/Library/Fonts).
    So long story short uninstall & delete the font through your font manager
    and all other locations and then reinstall and of course perform a shut
    down. That's what worked for me, Hope that helps

  • Fonts not available in IDCC2014, with Suitcase Fusion 5 or 6

    I have opened and worked a InDesign CC2014 doc. Everything is fine. The next day I attempt to open the doc again with the same fonts installed and they come up missing. I try several Macs, (different OSs), different versions of Suitcase Fusion including the latest and I get the same issue. Cleared font cache, restarted, etc to no avail. Any ideas? This has happened over the years occasionally, and has seemed to happen recently on a few occasions.
    Thanks

    That's a large part of the problem. You have more than one font manager on your Mac. If you're not using Font Book, delete it. Then you need to reset its orphaned database so OS X stops trying to control which fonts are, or aren't active according to that data.
    To remove Font Book from the hard drive, follow these steps:
    1) Open Font Book, and then its preferences. Uncheck the box for "Alert me if system fonts change". Close the preferences and shut down Font Book. Put the Font Book application in the trash and delete it.
    2) Restart your Mac and immediately hold down the Shift key when you hear the startup chime to boot into Safe Mode. Keep holding it until OS X asks you to log in (you will get this screen on a Safe Mode boot even if your Mac is set to automatically log in). Let the Mac finish booting to the desktop and then restart normally.
    This will reset Font Book's database and clear the cache files in your user account. The main goal in this step is to remove the orphaned Font Book database from the hard drive. With the Font Book application no longer on the hard drive, a new one cannot be created. Which is what we want.
    3) Close all running applications. From an administrator account, open the Terminal app and enter the following command. You can also copy/paste it from here into the Terminal window:
    sudo atsutil databases -remove
    This removes all font cache files. Both for the system and all user font cache files. After running the command, close Terminal and immediately restart your Mac.

  • Some user fonts not available in CS6 Classic InDesign, please help

       I am using Adobe CS6 Classic on a MacPro computer operating on Yosemite 10.10.1
       Three months ago, I brought over my personal collection of fonts from my retired computer. The collection includes 30 Letraset postscript fonts, which I purchased so long ago that the originals are on floppy disk.
       Initially, FontBook would not install the fonts, but I was able to overcome that by purchasing FontXChange, a tool which enabled me to quickly and effortlessly convert the Postscript fonts to Open Type fonts.
       Using FontBook I installed those fonts into the
                   users/(my home folder)/library/fonts folder.
       Twenty-six of the 30 fonts immediately became available on the InDesign fonts drop-down list. The other 4 simply cannot be made to appear on the list. (This is strange, because those fonts do appear among the fonts available for MS Word.
       I have been searching for a solution online and have not found anyone who is experiencing my exact problem.
       I have tried moving the problem fonts into many different fonts folders, the most promising of which were:
                 •the user/(my homefolder)/library/application support/adobe/fonts folder.
                 •and the MacHD/library/fonts folder.
       I’ve tried starting from scratch with the Postscript font, converting it again to otf, etc. in case somehow the font became corrupted in the conversion process.
       Etc., etc.—Nothing works.
       The problem fonts are: Bronx, Demian, Demian Bold, and Willow.
       Can anyone out there help?

  • Why are some fonts not available?

    I have found that there are fonts in HD>Library>Fonts that are not showing up in any Collection in Font Book and are not available in apps that I'm working with. Font Book Help does not address this problem.
    Some help with this, please?
    Peter

    What types of fonts are they? If they're Type 1 PostScript, this may be the problem.
    Font Book can read PostScript fonts. But from the sounds of it, you don't have the whole font. Type 1 PostScript fonts are a set. One file is a suitcase containing all of the low res bitmap screen fonts. The rest are the outline printer fonts. As an example, here's Adobe Garamond.
    Adobe Garamond
    AGarBol
    AGarBolIta
    AGarIta
    AGarReg
    AGarSem
    AGarSemIta
    The first file which I highlighted in green is the font suitcase of bitmap screen fonts. The rest are the outline printer fonts.
    1) The files for a Type 1 PostScript font must have both the screen and printer fonts for a given set in order to work. They also must be in the same folder.
    2) The suitcase of bitmap fonts will work alone, but output will be terrible since the system will print the fonts using the 72 dpi screen fonts in the suitcase if the outline portions are missing.
    3) Having only the outline fonts will not work. You will get exactly what you are having problems with. You can see the fonts, but Font Book won't load them. That's not a problem with Font Book itself. No font manager will load outline fonts without the matching suitcase of screen fonts present.

Maybe you are looking for
