After Reformat There Are Missing Fonts - NOT SOLVED

I know i already posted it but i said it was solved... turns out i didnt solve the problem. Heres whats wrong:
I recently zeroed all the data on my hard drive and started all over with my mac. However, I recently discovered, with the reformat, I lost my fonts. Even normal ones like Tahoma! How do I get these. I'm sure tahoma is a normal font that should be bundled with all computers and i remember using it before i reformatted my computer.
i also noticed this problem when i created a new account before i reformatted. no tahoma. unfortunately i forgot to back up my fonts folder so i dont remember what i had and what i didnt have. i think i might have imported the Tahoma font from my XP. but if thats not the case, then why isnt it there, and how can i get it back? I know for iDVD there was a similar problem where they didnt have any "Previous Menus" and all i had to do was unpack a package program thing (one of those open box icons) and they were there.
I'm sure I'm not the only person that has this problem since i have the same version of Tiger that everyone else has. What do i do? Or does tahoma just not come with Mac/Tiger?

Tahoma is not an OS X installed font. You must have installed it as part of some other application or as a separate font. Tahoma is a Microsoft font which suggests that it's installed when you install a particular Microsoft product, for example, Office 2004 X.

  • Some text fonts are missing or not displayable???

    Can anyone help!?
    Sorry if this is the wrong forum.
    I opened a logic 7 song today and had this error message pop up 'some text fonts are missing or not displayable'. I then noticed whenever I tried to mute audio (using 'Apple M') logic would crash.
    Any clues what has happened or how I fix this?
    Thank you!
    G

    I have had this exact issue/warning when opening up older songs that I made in previous versions of Logic.
    To solve it, do this procedure even if you never use the Score Editor:
    1. Open the Score Editor
    2. Go to Text>Text Styles (in the toolbar: Layout,Edit,Functions,Attributes, Text, View, Options
    3. When you open Text Styles you will see the grid with different kinds of Fonts for the various Score Editor settings. In this grid, whatever fonts are not available on your computer will have some sort of asterisk bracket stuff instead of saying the name of the font that is already on your computer - Arial, Times, Helvetica etc.
    4. Change the fonts by clicking them and selecting ones that are on your computer. If you dont use the Score Editor, it doesnt matter what fonts you put there. Anything will do but you must get rid of the columns which have got a 'hole' with brackets.
    5. Save the document with the changes made - the problem should not re-occur.
    PS For some reason, when booting up, Logic experiences a 'crisis' when it doesnt have previous fonts available. As I said, do this even if you never use the Score Editor

  • Why is there a missing font called "Ben Pioneer" when it is installed on my pc and works perfectly well with photoshop CS5?

    Yes the font works fine with Photoshop and office been using it for years.
    Illustrator is a lot more pickier about fonts than those two. And Freefonts are known to get into trouble with Illustrator.
    From what I can see on Dafont the font isn't a bitmap font.
    Do you use font management? Try installing the font without font management.

  • 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.

  • Missing fonts not identified in open documents

    Adobe documentation states that when a document is opened that uses uninstalled fonts, a message will identify the missing fonts and offer to use font substitution. This is not what happens when I open such a document in Photoshop CS3. The warning message does not identify the missing fonts, nor can I click the offending text to get this information because font substitution happens automatically before the file is opened. The result is that I have no idea, in some cases, which fonts are missing. This is incredibly dumb!
    How can I get Photoshop CS3 to tell me which fonts are missing? Thanks!

    Unfortunately, Photoshop DOES substitute fonts. My files most definitely never specified Myriad Pro (which is what all the type in these documents has been converted to) or anything even remotely resembling Myriad Pro. What Photoshop does not do is provide a way to specify the font substitution settings at all.
    As for Suitcase, it has its limitations; but honestly, I am unimpressed by every one of the font management programs out there. I have not had activation problems with Suitcase Fusion in the past, but who knows? Maybe I'll have better luck if I try to open my files in Photoshop CS. Thanks for your feedback!

  • Keynote complains of missing fonts not in presentation

    Keynote complains about two missing fonts when I open a file, even though I have gone through the deck and changed all of the text elements to a known font.
    I checked the .apxl file in the package, and it's making references to these missing fonts in paragraph styles that are not being used in the presentation. Is there a way to remove the missing fonts short of redoing the deck from scratch?

    Same problem as previous poster but...
    1. I have no idea what an apxl file is; a search of that extension yields zip. Where do I find this file and how do I modify it safely?
    2. I don't want to replace the missing fonts as they are not used anywhere I can find (and I went through every page); rather, I want any reference to them to go away. How do I do that?
    3. I am unable to export the show as a QuickTime file because, "There is a problem with the file," according to Keynote. Could the (erroneous) missing fonts be the problem?

  • WMF format equations available/missing fonts not displayed/alerted

    WMF format equations fonts are not displayed in the applications, If any fonts used on that equations is missing in the system the indesign will not show/alert any missing font warring to the user and the substitute fonts replaced automatically for the missing fonts, Because of this the output PDF comes with wrong fonts. How to fix the equation font missing issue in Indesign.
    Your suggestions are welcome.
    Required Details
    Indesign CS5.5
    OC - Windows XMP
    Equation Software : Math type
    Format: WMF

    Best practice would be not to use WMF at all in InDesign.
    WMF cannot embedd fonts, so the second best practice would be to use a WMF without live text.
    Best would be to use ai or pdf files.
    What other format can Math Type export?
    // I did have a look on Softonic's web site. They write that Math Type can export EPS. Use that!
    /// If you have also font embedding problems with EPS take care that you use fonts which allow embedding (not every font does) and put the EPS in the Distiller with some kind of setting without color conversion and make a PDF of it, then use this PDF. The PDF should be dcreated on a computer with the same fonts available which you have used with Math Type.

  • Downloaded and installed FF 36.0.3 but there are no release notes so is this a legit install???

    So I did the latest FF upgrade (36.0.3) when notified. Then I went to take a look at the release notes in
    https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/releases/
    for 36.0.3 but there are none. So was this a legitimate release without documentation or did I just get snookered into installing rogue software?

    Thank you for your reply.
    However in this day and age of malware it is important to dot the "i"s and cross the "t"s so that we have nothing there which looks suspicious.
    Remember, it ain't paranoia if they really are out to get you. And they are.
    Thanks

  • Missing font not missing

    I created a newsletter on the Windows XP platform using InDesign CS4. The newsletter was fine, and I "packaged" it with all the fonts. I then upgraded to Windows 7 (64-bit).  Now, when I open the same newsletter, Adobe tells me Arial Black is missing. But it's right there in the Font folder, and when I try to reinstall it in Windows, just to see what happens, Windows says it's already there.
    If this helps, when I select the font in the newsletter, it is listed in InDesign within brackets, like so: [Arial Black]. What gives? And how do I fix it?
    Thanks!

  • There are missing files for numbers.

  • How can I find out if there are any masters (not referenced) in my library?

    Hi!
    I've been using Aperture for a while (most masters are on different hard drives, but maybe some are in my library by mistake when I imported them), now want to consolidate all my photo-masters on a separate "photo" hard drive and leave in my Aperture Library only the previews and the adjustments.
    I have some projects in my library, and my library is 12 GB. Is there a quick way to find out if any of my masters are in the library so I can "take them out" and put them on my separate HD?
    If there was a way to sort by "badge" and see the ones not referenced that would be nice.
    In the future I will be more careful when importing to make sure my photos are always in the right place and referenced.
    Thanks for any help!

    Easy. Add Rule "File Status" = "Managed".
    Make a Smart Album, store it in your top level Smart Albums folder (I put all my Library administration Albums there), and check it before doing a full back-up, or regularly. I keep recent shots on my MBP internal drive so I can work on them wherever I am. After a month or so I relocate the Masters to my big external drive.
    Note that Managed Masters/Versions are likely already differentiated by badge. Referenced images have a "link arrow" badge. Managed images do not.
