Access to all fonts in font book from Pages

For some reason, when working in Pages, I do not have access to all the enabled fonts in my font book. Can anyone help me change this?

Welcome to the forums!
Can you see the "Collections" column on the left of the Font Panel? If not, drag the lower right corner of the panel to expand it. Once you see the Collections column, make sure that "All Fonts" is selected.

  • What is the best way to create Aperture book from Pages '09 document?

    What is the best way to create Aperture book from Pages '09 document?

    There is no way to import pages documents to Aperture and convert them to an Aperture book. Aperture books can only be created by manually adding images and text to the pages of a book, and using the layout of the predefined templates.
    The best you could do, would be to print your pages document to pdf and import the resulting pdf file into Aperture as a new project. This will create one image for each page. Then select the page images all at once and  create a new book. Select a theme with fullsize page images, like "picture Book", and then add the images of the pages to the empty pages of the book.
    But probably would you get a much better quality and layout, when you recreate your pages document in Aperture, by starting with an empty book and copying and pasting the text from your Pages document. But don't paste the photos from the document - try to use the originals of those photos.

  • "Create Book from Page" Question

    In the Table of Contents Pod, I can right-click on a topic/page and select "Create Book from Page." When I do so, the resulting "book" is not selectable. I have to bring in the page again and place it below the "Book" title. This can't be right! What am I doing wrong, or what should I be doing?

    Here's what I found as to how to associate a topic with the book:
    You’ll have to create a topic to associate with that book. Here’s one way to do that:
    Right click the book icon in the Table of Contents (TOC).
    Point to New in the right-click menu. Then, click Page in the sub-menu that displays.
      This places that topic in the level under that book. Now you just need to associate that topic with that book (so that when you click on the book, this topic displays). 
    Right-click the book icon again. This time select Properties in the right-click menu that displays. This displays the TOC Book Properties dialog.
    Select the checkbox preceding Book with Link on this dialog. Now, scroll through the Existing Topics list to locate the topic you want to associate with that book. Click that topic in the list. Then, click OK on the dialog.
      To see if your topic is now associated with your book: 
    Right-click the book icon. If options Edit Item and Preview topic display on the right-click menu, you have been successful in associating that topic with that book. By the way, once you have associated a topic with a book, you must right-click the book icon to view or edit that topic from the TOC pod. (Of course, you can always edit it directly using the Topic List or Project manager pods.)
    But... (see the second bullet above) After I click "page" I think it wants me to select a page from the list of topics. When I select the proper page and continue through the process, the topic page is still below the Book title and the Book still isn't clickable!
    It appears I'm doing something wrong on the association part, but I don't know what!

  • Printing hardbound books (like Apple's iPhoto books) from Pages docs

    I've printed a few hardbound books of photos from iPhoto and have been pleased with the results, particularly those from iPhoto 6.
    Recently, I used Pages to lay out a book of photos, game scores, and some text for my son's baseball team. The original idea was to take the pdf file to the local Kinko's and have it printed and bound with transparent covers and plastic ring thing. But Kinko's proved unable to print my full-bleed pages, and the quality of the prints turned out to be worse than I could do with my Canon iP8600 printer at home!
    Faced with the task of printing 20 copies of this 24-page book at home, I'm now wondering...can Pages documents (or pdfs) be printed by Apple's book service? If not directly, can I import the pdf file into iPhoto and print each page as a single full-bleed 'photo' using one of the iPhoto templates? I'd have to redo the layout of the Pages book to fit iPhoto's template dimensions,and that would be a LOT of additional work, so I'd like to know beforehand if it is technically possible to print the book in this manner and if Apple would obect to my doing this.
    And if none of the above is possible, is there some printing service out there that would accept a pdf file from Pages and print it as a hardbound book similar to Apple's for a reasonable cost?
    Thanks!

    No, kinko's does not do hardbound books, at least not here in Japan. All they offer is simple binding of loose pages. Options include plastic spiral-like binding, staples, plastic covers, and basic glue/cloth tape. Papers are whatever you bring in or whatever you print on at the shop. Results are adequate for reports and such,but not for long-term archival purposes or gifts.
    As for my own book project, I ended up printing 19 copies on my 8-ink Canon printer using fairly high quality duplex paper. Took several days -- mostly because of the need to buy and install new ink cartridges every few hours (took far more ink than I had expected). The results were far better than could be done on Kinko's printers, but the cheap (not really!!) bindings did not leave a good impression. Moreover, adding the binding cost to the cost of the paper and ink brought the price of each book to over $30 -- more than it would have cost to use Apple's service.
    Just after printing and binding these books, I created a 100-page iPhoto book of vacation photos. Book came back in about a week and looked superb. Showed it to the coaches -- the ones who work for printing companies -- and they were quite impressed. Still don't know why they resisted going this route for the baseball book.
    Next time, if there IS a next time, I will insist upon using Apple's service.

  • Fonts in PDF created from Pages doesn't present correctly on Windows PCs

    The fonts documents that I'm creating in Pages and then converting to PDF, aren't presenting properly to people using Windows PC's. Some of the fonts are "wonky".
    What I'm doing is creating documents in Pages and then creating PDF's either by Print, save as PDF or Share, Export, PDF.
    On my MacBook and iPad the PDFs are perfect. However when viewed on Windows, they are wonky. Not all of the document/fonts are messed up. An example of a font that appears wonky, is Baskerville.
    I've used Adobe Reader to check whether the fonts appear embedded, and they seem to be there.
    This is a huge problem for me because, at the moment, all documents I'm sending to clients who use Windows, are looking really unprofessional.
    Any suggestions or solutions?
    Anyone else seen this?

    Since the problem is to be seen in Adobe Reader for Microsoft Windows, you might want to ask a forum at Adobe.com. There is no way of knowing what you mean by 'wonky.'
    The principle is that the scalable glyph shapes in the font program are subset and the subset of glyph shapes is inserted with the start point and the set widths that are used for drawing ('showing') the glyphs in the graphic co-ordinate geometry that you have defined in the document setup dialogue. There are two basic ways to embed Apple SFNT-housed TrueType (which is what your Baskerville is, if it is the one that installs with the system software) in Adobe PDF, either as several font programs each with a max of 256 glyphs or as a single font program within which there are several tiled font programs. Both are basically hacks, because Adobe PDF cannot contain the Unicode and TrueType glyph run complete, the way Adobe PDF 1.3 and higher can in fact contain the ICC ColorWorld complete. But that is a monster bug matrix that is beyond this discussion - only that you need to understand what you are seeing in the dialogue for embedded fonts shown in Adobe Acrobat products. That is, the fonts are always re-encoded and are never the original, intact fonts.

  • E-Book from Pages document?.

    I have recently been asked to prepare a manuscript, written in Pages, for online publication.
    Does any one have experience in this area. Especially what format does the book have to be saved in.
    Any other suggestions would also be really helpful.
    many thanks.

    Hi Rob
    Welcome to the forum.
    At the moment you are pretty well limited to .pdf files with whatever bookmarking and indexing you want to include.
    Have a look at this list for software across all platforms. This is about to change radically IMHO.

    Apple has promised an iWork suite to go with the iPad but neither the software nor the hardware have surfaced yet. I am very interested in exactly what that entails.

  • How to publish a BOOK from iWeb blog

    During 2011 I kept a Blog in iWeb on me.com when my little 7 year old daughter was suffering from liver cancer. the Blog was read and commented by many people. I have been her Living Donor for the liver, and so far she is a "survivor" with sparks in her eys that represent "life".
    We have had a lot of support from people that are close to us and I want to thank them all by "publishing" a book from the blog. I kept it on my Macbook wich also still has iWeb on it. I a 'just a user' and not a freak, so I do not have a clue if this is possible to do or just Wishfull thinking. I presume you can never get back to me.com, so the ' web counter' as well as 'feed back' might have been lost, but I sure want to publish this blog in a book. It would be a great gift to thos who supported us and other people that go through this as well, as well as for my little girl Joy, so when she is older she knows what she has been going throug. Is there anyone that could support in the steps I need to undertake to get this done?

    To give you an idea what is possible, I used Chrome on my iPad and printed a webpage as pdf to Google Drive with Google Cloudprinter.
    This is the webpage :
    http://www.wyodor.net/mfi/cultureclub/Blog/Blog.html
    This is the result :

    BTW, you can merge pdf files in Preview.app :

  • How to transfer iBooks books from old iPad to new iPad?

    I've recently gotten an iPad Air to replace my previous iPad 2. I have a lot of books and PDFs in iBooks on the old iPad, and want to transfer them to the new iPad.
    A search of Apple Support informs me that anything I've purchased from iBooks can be downloaded at any time to any of my devices (works like Amazon's Kindle system, apparently), but nearly all the content I have in iBooks I've downloaded from other sources, so it won't be in my iBooks Store account.
    I've also read several instructions on how to copy all my data from the old iPad to the new, but that seems to require restoring the new iPad to factory setup, which would delete everything I have on it now – including a bunch more books I've gotten since I started using the new iPad.
    Is there a way to just copy the books and PDFs in iBooks from the old iPad to the new iPad, adding them to the books on the new iPad, so I don't lose anything?

    Transfer all purchases (this should transfer all the pdfs and books) from the old iPad to iTunes using the USB cable. If you have any new purchases on your new iPad do the same with that. You can then use iTunes to sync any apps, books, pdfs, music etc to the new iPad.

  • Setting Book Default page in runtime

    Hi All,
    How to set Book Default page in runtime.
    My requirement is based on loged in user group name we have to go to that page, in book there are four pages default is 3 page. based on user login we have to go the pirticular page.
    Thanks,
    Venkaata Sarvabatla

    Hi
    I have a similar requirement but the problem i am facing is that the control of the program does not go into the handlePostbackData() method of the desktop backing file. the URL i call from the login JSP is something like: "/../../myDesktop.portal" where myDesktop.portal is the desktop portal file having books and pages. Page1 is the default but based on an input i need to redirect to Page2 instead of landing on the default Page1. I wanted to give the redirect logic in the handlePostbackData() method but the control does not go into the method. I also tried giving sth like : "/../../myDesktop.portal?_nfpb=true&_pageLabel=Page2" but it still renders the (default) Page1.
    Do you have an idea what would I be possible missing out on or doing wrong here. Thanks.
    I am using struts portals.
    Thanks

  • RH 10: TOC hierarchy limited to Books and Pages only?

    I am generating WebHelp on Windows 7 Professional and viewing the generated help in IE 9.
    In the TOC pod it looks like the TOC has only two levels of hierarchy for topics: Books and pages. There does not appear to be a way to add a topic below a page in the TOC hierarchy (a sub page of a page, in other words).
    In the attached sceen shot, a topic is highlighted, and the right pointing arrow is not available.
    Surely RH 10 does not restrict the TOC to just two levels.
    Please let me know how to move a topic to appear under a page in the TOC.
    Thanks.

    Sorry but that's the way it works. You get books and pages. The books contain the pages. If you want topics indented below other topics, you will need to make another book. RoboHelp can help you with this. Right click the page and choose "Create Book from Page" and poof!
    Cheers... Rick

  • Font book keeps enabling ALL of my fonts - Overloading my system

    When I restart my computer or just Font Book, Font Book enables ALL of my fonts. I have over 1100 fonts. It eats up all of my RAM (3GB) and the computer grinds to a slow crawl. I have deselected "automatic font activation" in preferences. I have created "collections" so I can activate and de-activate groups and manage the many fonts. I can even go through EVERY non-system font and manually deactivate them. But they will all activate at restart. I have been having this problem for years with ALL versions of Font Book from day 1. I am now on OSX Lion with Font Book 3.0. Same problem. Yet I see few posts about other s dealing with this. What's could be causing FB to open all fonts?
    Is there a fix for this? Is Font Book worth the trouble? I have known people (also with large font collections) who claim it works fine for them. If not, how do I bring in new font managment software and shut down Font Book to avoid any conflicts?

    Don't count on Font Book to help you at this point. With a lot of bad fonts on the system before, it's now likely that its database is hosed. When that happens, Font Book does all kinds of strange things. Like not being able to activate or deactivate fonts that are in its list.
    To straighten things out, do this:
    1) Go directly to the following folders, not through Font Book. Delete all fonts in the /Library/Fonts/ folder. Delete all fonts in the Fonts folder of your user account.
    2 Restart the Mac and hold down the Shift key to start up in Safe Mode. This takes awhile as the OS is doing multiple checks. For your particular needs, it also clears all cache files from your user account and trashes Font Book's current database.
    3) When the Safe Mode startup is done, your Mac will be at what looks like your normal desktop. Restart again normally.
    4) Follow the directions at the bottom of the article ~Bee linked to in order to restore just the fonts from the Snow Leopard installation disk.

  • I have two users on my iMac, i want to transfer the font book from one to the other ?

    I downloaded a bunch of fonts on my first User profile, now I don't use it because of problems and I now use a new profile.
    How can I get the font book from one user to over ride the other one ??
    thanks in advance

    Font Book is an application available to all accounts.
    There are three Font folders (provided by OS X)
    /System/Library/Fonts
    Contains fonts essential to the proper working of the OS and various included applications.
    /Library/Fonts
    Contains the standard set of fonts provided with the OS version, and is where you should put any fonts that you want to be shared by all accounts
    ~/Library/Fonts
    Is the folder in each account. Fonts in here will be available only to that account.
    Log into your old account and transfer the fonts from
    ~/Library/Fonts to /Library/Fonts
    "/" indicates the root (Macintosh HD), "~/" is shorthand for your user folder.

  • Fonts in font book don't show up in applicaitons

    Hi,
    I have installed many fonts from discs and online sites that are trustworthy. I install the fonts and they get put into my font book, but they are not available in my applications. I have some fonts that show up in one area and others that do not. I must have fonts stored in multiple places, but I don't know where. I have made sure that I checked the box that installed fonts are for the computer so all users have access. Any help is appreciated!
    Thanks.

    ucdgrad95,
    fonts are typically installed into either a user’s ~/Library/Fonts folder (if they were installed for use only for the user who’d installed them) or into the /Library/Fonts folder (if they were installed for use by all users). If you look in both of these folders, do you see all of the fonts which you’ve installed from your discs and your trustworthy online sites? Are any of the fonts from those discs and online sites working well in all of your apps, or do all of those fonts not appear in all of your apps which use TrueType fonts?

  • Reinstall of corrupt fonts in font book?

    I tried researching my issue, but came up with too many different scenarios and also need more specific step by step remedy.
    Running Map Book Pro
    OS X 10.6.8
    Traveling for business and holiday until Jan.
    Working in Adobe Cloud, specifically In-Design and Adobe Pro I discovered that certain fonts weren't rendering properly for colleagues.
    Online advice said to go to system font book and verify my fonts, then delete corrupt ones.
    There were 32. (They are still in my trash, as I was afraid to delete entirely without a restoration remedy.)
    So, I can't get to my original install materials, but I also can't work without some of these basic fonts missing for the time being.
    How did my fonts get corrupted? (Do I have other issues such as a virus to look for?)
    Can I temporarily fix things without the original disks?
    Can a Apple Genius do this at a store?
    What's the step by step process to fix this for good?
    Any recommendation or help appreciated!

    Should I put back the fonts i removed  to my trash can back first?
    In case any of them actually are bad, no. Not that it would matter if you did, since retrieving them from your OS X install disk as outlined in the article will replace all of them with fresh copies anyway.
    Do these steps in the order shown.
    1) Follow the article's instructions to reinstall all of the fonts in the  /System/Library/, and /Library/Fonts/ folders. This will replace all fonts with fresh copies from the DVD.
    2) Reset Font Book. Restart your Mac and immediately hold down the Shift key when you hear the startup chime to boot into Safe Mode. Keep holding the Shift key until you see a progress bar towards the bottom of the screen. You can let go of the Shift key at that point.
    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 clear Font Book's database and the cache files of the user account you logged into in Safe Mode.
    3) Since step two does not clear the system font cache files, you need to do this next.
    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
    Terminal will then ask for your admin password. As you type, it will not show anything, so be sure to enter it correctly.
    This removes all font cache files. Both for the system and the current user font cache files. After running the command, close Terminal and immediately restart your Mac.
    That's it, you will have all known good copies of your fonts, and newly created font cache data. At this point, if you always use only the fonts supplied with OS X and don't ever add, remove or manage your fonts (turn them and or off), there's no need for you to ever launch Font Book. Heck, you could throw the app in the trash if you wanted to (but don't in case you need it at some point).
