Acrobat can't find built-in font

When examining the same document with Acrobat 7.0.8 Pro on several of our Windows 2000 workstations, some workstations throw the following error and some do not - "Cannot find of create the font 'Code128JK'. Some characters may not display or print correctly." Those that show the error display dots in place of the characters.
Any help would be appreciated. More details follow.
Thanks,
Bruce
DETAILS
The Type 1 font was installed manually on all workstations, using the Windows setting GUI.
I have confirmed that it exists and is properly registered on all workstations. There is a registry entry for the font under ...
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Type 1 Installer\Type 1 Fonts
On all workstations, other Windows applications have no trouble with the font, and display it in their list of available fonts.
Acrobat 7.0.8 Pro was installed by the same install package on all workstations.
With the document open in Acrobat, under File > Document Properties ... > Fonts, the failing workstations list the font as follows ...
Code128JK
Type: Type 1
Encoding: Built-in
Actual font: Unknown
The "good" systems list it as follows ...
Code128JK
Type: Type 1
Encoding: Built-in
Actual font: Code128JK
Actual font type: Type 1

No problem. Thanks for letting us know your solution. We often get so tied up in our views, we also forget the simple ones. Fonts can be confusing, but this is a good lesson on why you should embed fonts when you send the PDFs to others, at least those outside your office. I have seen PDFs that look like trash because a font had not been embedded. The most common case is with folks using LaTeX and not embedding fonts that are not on either a PC or a MAC. One guy created a whole program for a conference and posted it. In AA7 (with the font issue AA7 had) all of the titles were in a Greek font and were unreadable. I am sure they looked fine to him.
Sounds like you need a bit of a stress reliever tonight. Have a good one.

Acrobat Can't Find Wingdings Font

I just received a PDF file which, when opened, informed me that Acrobat can't find my Wingdings font. I opened a text box and used Wingdings, Wingdings 2 and Wingdings 3. How can I point Acrobat to my Wingdings font for this document? For future documents?

You can try a system restore by fixing Windows itself with "http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-desktop/how-to-restore-windows- 7-default-fonts/73a8eb3e-3189-4514-b87c-18fcdca4fe26" or alternatively, you might try this "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-YvRa2u58nI"

Indesign suddenly can't find previously-working fonts

I've been using Indesign CS3 (5.0) and Suitcase Fusion (12.1.7) happily for about a year and a half with little to no issues. Now suddenly I'm having some issues with Indesign documents I've worked on fine in the past couple months. Specifically, I've been using the GillSans family in a series of ads and everything was fine until about a week ago. Now suddenly when I open any of the ads, I'm told that GillSans and GillSans Light can't be found and Indesign shows all the text with that lovely "missing pink" shade all the other subsets of GillSans like Bold, Condensed, etc. still work fine.
I know for a fact the GillSans family is activated in Fusion, including the two Indesign says are missing. I've also tried removing and replacing my GillSans files with another coworker's and re-installing them in Fusion, and Indesign still says they're missing.
Additionally, I've run FontDoctor on the GillSans folder and it doesn't find any issues. I've also tried moving the GillSans fonts over to my main /Library/Fonts folder and again, Indesign can't seem to "find" them.
So as far as I can tell, everything should be working fine and, yet, it's not. Any ideas on why a couple subsets of my GillSans font would suddenly not be recognized? If they were corrupt I would think either Fusion or FontDoctor would pick up the problem; I'd also think replacing them with someone else's entirely different GillSans files should fix any corruption, so I'm at a loss as to what to do.
Thanks,

Interestingly enough, there doesn't seem to be a single dfont for GillSans anywhere on my system.
Additionally, I just noticed that Indesign is asking for GillSans (TT), but it looks like all the GillSans we have on the computers here are marked as Post Script odd, considering the fonts used in the Indesign document were at one point working correctly.
(UPDATE) After looking a bit into .dfonts and seeing that my system for some reaosn *didn't* have one, I copied over the GillSans.dfont from another Mac to my /library/fonts folder and that seems to have solved part of the problem: GillSans (TT) appears to be working fine now, but GillSans Light (TT) isn't. That's something, at least. ;)

IChat can't find built in iSight on 1 week old iMac

The iChat video preference pane on this 1 week old iMac, reads "This computer does not support video chat".
It can find the built in iSight in other software (Photo Booth, iMovie, Skype), but not in iChat.
It worked perfectly 5 days ago.
The only thing that's changed is that I updated my software using "Software Update".
Can any one help me get iChat video to work? Please help.
Brett

Hi,
The Bandwidth Limit drop down should not be greyed out.
I can think of two possibilities.
1) Parental Controls is On for this Mac User Account (but I have never heard of this effecting the Bandwidth Limit).
2) iChat is unable to or has Misread the Internet speed you have.
In the Connection Doctor (Video Menu) what does it say about the Network Status and Capabilities about Internet Speed ?
I would delete com.apple.ichat.plist
This file in in Your Home Folder/Library/Preferences.
Restart iChat afterwards to re-write the .plist
It will also get iChat to check for the camera And the Internet Speed.
Unfortunately deleting this .plist means you may have to reset an Preferences in iChat that you have changed from Default.

Acrobat can't find my scanner anymore. I have two and it can't find either.

Why can't Acrobat find my scanners anymore?

It would appear that Adobe's programmers are "stuck" on the idea that they need to "fix" their ICA software, rather than figuring out why their TWAIN software worked flawlessly with version 8 [Acrobat Pro], and not at all with many scanners across many computer systems. I'm running Mac OSX 10.7.5, with Acrobat Pro [11.0.09] and the problem just gets worse with each Adobe update.

Ugly text -- Can't find the appropriate Fonts-- The installer erased my fonts.

I recently updated to the newest version of Reader 8.1.2 now the appearance of the text is so poor it is barely readable.
I cannot seem to solve the problem.
I am living in taiwan and I think Adobe download service has only installed fonts based on locality.
How do I correct this problem?

hello, you can press the alt-key to bring up the menu bar with the edit menu temporarily. or you can press ctrl+z. that's the shortcut for "undo"...

I just re-installed fonts from a third disk in my Create Suite 5, but can't find CLASSIC CURSIVE FONTS in my selctions.

I am in the process of re-installing ADOBE CREATIVE SUITE 5 DESIGN PREMIUM because I had to change my hard drive. I haven't done this for years. There is a disk that came with the Suite called "CONTENT." It contains FONTS. I followed the instructions to INSTALL, but do not seem to have a single CLASSIC CURSIVE FONT now. Can anyone help? I had about 3 of these in the past.

Sorry I didn't see your response earlier. Here are the screen shots you requested:
#1 Is what appears on my screen when I put the disk in.
#2 Is the screen after I selected "English" as my language
#3 Is the screen I got after selecting "Goodies"
#4 Is the screen I got after selecting "Fonts"
#5 Is the list of fonts I get after opening the folder "Adobe"
#6 Is the step to install the fonts: "Select all, Right-click and select "Install."
These all seem to appear in my font choices for InDesign, however, I am missing the three fancy script options I used to use all the time. The kind you use for invitations and such.
Here is a screen shot of my InDesign fonts. In the past, there were two such fonts towards the end of my font list that are no longer there. I really don't seem to have any traditional script-like fonts in my list anymore.
Are these images even legible?
Thanks for your help. I look forward to your reply.

Migrated to a new Macbook Pro, now can't find my custom fonts

I migrated my backed up computer from an external hard drive to my new Macbook Pro, purchased in July 2014. Running Mavericks 10.9.5, 2.6 GHz Intel Core i5, 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3.
I am a graphic designer and had many custom fonts on my old computer in a file structure that worked with Suitcase Fusion 2. (Users/Shared/Library (?)/My Fonts) This structure and all my custom fonts are now missing.

Try calling AppleCare at 1-800-APL-CARE and try to reset your password to you old AppleID through them, Give them your MacBook Pro's serial number to avoid having to pay for phone support. You may have run out of options to reset your password youself, but they may be able to override you hacker's attempt to keep you out by having you verify billing info stored on the old Apple ID. Any content purchased with that old Apple ID will have to be authorized for playback on your new MacBook Pro with the original Apple ID and password that was used to purchase said content. To my knowledge there is currently no way of transfering ownership of content from one AppleID to another, however after you get your old Apple ID sorted out, you may be able to change the main email to one of your own and change your password to one thats tough to crack to avoid going through this terrible experience again.
Hope that helps :-)

How can I find which font is used inside a PNG?

Hi,
When I started my company, I had a company logo and website designed for me by another company. This company doesn't exist anymore and all I have left are the source files of my logo and website. They delivered me the logo in PNG format. I am trying to make different sizes and shapes of my logo, but when I open the PNG file in Fireworks (CS5), it says that the font is missing, so whether I want to replace the font or keep appearance. How can I find out which font was used in the original PNG file? When I select the text, the font selection box is empty, so I cannot see which font was originally used...
Thx,
Steven

Hi Linda,
I tried it and you are right. I kept trying to preserve the appearance. Never tried the replace fonts option!
Thank you very much for your help!!

Printer Built-in fonts in java

Hello,
I'm using Imaje 2000 Series Printer, when opening a new microsoft word document I can see some built in fonts specific to that printer like Imaje Arial, Imaje Times New Roman B, etc... I found out when printing with one of these fonts, the printing process is very fast. what happens is that I can see those fonts with name Imaje in MS word with printer icon attached to them, but in java i cant see them, and to check all fonts in java i used the below code :
Font[] f = GraphicsEnvironment.getLocalGraphicsEnvironment().getAllFonts();
for (int i=0; i<f.length; i++) {
System.out.println(f.getFontName());
if i try to set the font to Imaje Arial, java will neglect that font and print on the default I guess. Is there a way to use the printer built in fonts from within my java application

well, i cant find the font in windows fonts
directory, but when I open MS wrod i can find the
font (for example: Imaje Arial) in the fonts list and
has an icon of printer which means its not a true
type font. and please note that this font Imaje Arial
did not appear in MS word before installing the
printer driver.Well, if it's not installed and you can't find the file, how do you expect Java to do it?
