Arabic Font Issue

I have some arabic font that works with Photoshop v.7.0 ME but I can not use them in latest version Photoshop CC. They are TrueType fonts.
Is there any solution to make them work?
I heard someone said convert them to OpenType and they should work and I did but nothing changed.
Really appreciate your help.

It may be a corrupt font. Our IT group is looking into it. When I change the font to Arial, it pdfs fine.
I tried typing the font directly into InDesign (even though Arabic text does not render correctly unless you're using InDesign ME) and then pdf'ing it. I got the same kind of error message about licensing:
"This font could not be embedded due to licensing restrictions in the font..."
InDesign ended up replacing the font with another one that looks similar. If our IT group fixes this, I'll post the solution. Until then, I'd appreciate all the suggestions/ideas you (and others) have. Thanks.

  • Arabic Fonts issue in Microsoft Word 2013

    Dears ,
    I am facing an issue with some arabic fonts like ( Al-Mohanad & Al-Mohanad Bold ) which I belive they are not supported in Word 2013 .
    when I type in microsoft word using these fonts an empty boxes appear in the document !! but it will not appear after I print the document .
    I really appreciate who assist me regarding this matter .
    Best Regards,

    Hi,
    Which language version did you use? English Office version or Arabic Office version? According to your description, the Al-Mohanad & Al-Mohanad Bold font displayed correctly in Word file.
    Please copy the Al-Mohanad & Al-Mohanad Bold font to Notepad and print it to test.
    If it also can not print from Notepad, I recommend you upgrade the printer driver.
    If it prints well from Notepad, please try to change a font in Word to print. We can look for free fonts, shareware fonts, or commercial fonts, go to the following Microsoft typography website:

  • Arabic Font Problem

    Hello,
    I've been told by my client that my arab text is not
    rendering correctly. The problem occurs where an incorrect 'alef'
    appears next to a 'lam'. Now I'm not an arab speaker or reader
    unfortunately, so I really don't understand exactly what this
    means, but its incorrect. I've had a good look at my character
    settings, and I'm not seeing any extra properties that I can set to
    correct this. An extract of my code is below that relates to
    character format.
    charFormat.color = fontColorIs;
    charFormat.fontFamily = fontIs;
    charFormat.fontSize = fontSizeIs;
    charFormat.locale = "ar";
    charFormat.ligatureLevel = LigatureLevel.EXOTIC;
    charFormat.lineHeight = "160%";
    charFormat.fontLookup = FontLookup.EMBEDDED_CFF;
    charFormat.kerning = Kerning.ON;
    paraFormat.textAlign = TextAlign.RIGHT;
    paraFormat.direction = "rtl";
    I've also put a some screen shots of the problem and the font
    online at
    http://www.kenmacleod.com.au/adobe
    - these 2 images were from the client and explain the issue.
    Adobe Arabic is working and rendering correctly, so I'm
    presuming that it is a font issue, and the font I'm trying to make
    work, just can't work with Flash even though its an OTF.
    I am wondering if maybe I've missed something. It doesn't
    appear to be a embedding issue either as I'm embedding the entire
    font via Gumbo.
    If anyone has had luck with other Arabic fonts rendering
    correctly please let me know what they are.
    Thanks, Ken.

    Just as a follow up to this problem if anyone else is
    experiencing something similar. We ended up contacting the actual
    developers of the Arabic font (
    http://www.grapheast.com).
    They described it as a Unicode issue and said they would have to
    update their font, which they promptly did in about an hour and
    fortunately for us, it worked straight up.
    http://www.brashbrands.com/ar/
    We had some unexpected issues with the Chinese version of the
    site too, I didn't do any research on font file sizes, but with the
    chinese language having so many characters, the font files seemed
    to vary from about 7MB to 15MB. Once squashed into a swf via Gumbo,
    the smallest versions were around the 4MB mark, but these were
    dropping characters all over the place. The 15MB looked great, but
    only came down to about 10MB, which is obviously way to big to
    embed. We tried just using 'sans' but some system fonts were
    dropping characters also, especially when we needed chinese
    characters next to punctuation. The result ended up being using a
    program called Fondu and extracting the mac system font Hei.dfont.
    The font size of the Gumbo swf ended up as 3MB and it worked
    perfectly. Details of the how to with Fondu are

    (thanks Aral Balkan and Fondu).

  • Arabic font become smaller in Pages' PDF in Yosemite

    It seems that Pages (5.5.1) in Yosemite has a bug that makes some fonts become small when exporting or making PDF.
    I have this problem, both in Adobe Arabic OTF font and a font that an OTF font that I've made myself.
    Does anybody has any solution or experience about this issue?

    First, Thank you Tom. Yes, it is a bug. Actually the only problem is that the glyphs are smaller, otherwise the correct instant of the characters are used.
    And then, thank you Jeff. At least now I know what causes it. The UPM of my font as well as Adobe Arabic fonts are set to 2048 due to complexity of the shapes. But there I have other TTF with the same UPM that works fine. So I guess this is something that happens to only OTF fonts in Pages.
    At least now I know what is the cause. I hope Apple would solve this. Thank you!

  • MS Office Mac wreaks havoc with arabic fonts on OSX

    i always have this problem when installing the dreaded MS Office for Mac on any OSX system and that is that Arabic fonts that work fine start going haywire because MS Office Mac installs some funky corrupt fonts.
    Does anyone know how to go back to the original pre-office installed fonts that came with OSX snow leopard? im guessing i have to use the install discs or something.
    i've tried to selectively figure out what Office has installed and remove them and its a pain.
    on a related note, will Office do fine if I dont allow it to install its own fonts on my system?

    tom -
    i am not sure of the specifics but here's some info from a poster on a board:
    "2) There is an entirely separate issue about viewing Arabic in Safari. Installing MS Office for Mac also installs Office fonts on your Mac. Two of those fonts (specifically Arial and Times New Roman) will corrupt Safari's ability to display Arabic properly and you will wind up with disjointed Arabic text like ? ? ? instead of ???
    To fix this all you need to do is delete the offending fonts from your Mac (go to Library>Preferences>Fonts and simply trash Arial and Times New Roman. Your mac will then revert to using the original versions of those fonts that came with your system -- in other words, you'll still have access to the Arial font in Microsoft Word and other Office apps, but Safari will display Arabic correctly."
    http://www.emiratesmac.com/forums/arabic/604-writing-displaying-arabic-my-mac-3. html
    and there's some useful information here as well http://www.smi.uib.no/ksv/ArabicMac.html .
    are there any other font folders that i should time-machine restore besides the two aptly named ones i mentioned in /Library and /user/Library ?
    and on a related note, there was an option in the custom settings of the MS Mac Office installation to install 'fonts' (or was it 'additional fonts' ?) that, in hindsight, maybe i should have unchecked. if i ever have to reinstall office one day i will pay more attention to this as well as have my fonts backed up for sure.

  • Photoshop CC 2014 font issues

    I'm Not entirely sure why this is happening, or what's causing it, but photoshop cc 2014 is causing some serious issues with fonts on my documents. Up until this point my company has used Extensis Suitcase Fusion to activate fonts used throughout our project docs. The 2014 typekit update and addition is somehow conflicting with either photoshop or suitcase and in return setting a large portion of my fonts to it's default or regular weight. It seems like while suitcase is auto activating the necessary fonts, typekit is reading each of those weights as their own individual fonts. This might seem difficult to understand but in any case i would just like to know if there is a way to completely deactivate typekit and or remove it's involvement in my project documents, at this point it is resetting dozens of fonts on some very important project files. I'd much rather not be limited to just the fonts that adobe or typekit prefers.

    I still don’t have a clue…

  • PDF Format Oracle Reports font issue

    My process is generating the batch oracle Reports.
    Their key map is:
    Key1: %* server=server1 userid=xxxs/xxx@xxxx report=D:\sample.rdf destype=file desformat=PDF
    My process is calling IAS server to generate report. IAS ser is generating and saving the report in the specified location.Reports are running on the server locally and DESTYPE=FILE. So the Oracle Reports output is saved on the server itself. Whenever i open the report on my machine/server i have font issue. Some of the reports has very tiny font. It seems the reports generated by using oracle reports which is Arial Unicode font type is causing the problem. If any reports other then Arial Unicode font like Arial Westrn, those reports are fine. We have 1000s of reports. So we don't want to change each report font type. For me it seems the issue is with the font on the server. Is there anyway to ask App server use Arial Westrn if Arial Unicode not found. How to make these configuration changes in the server. Any suggestions please.

    Maybe this helps or at least points you in some direction ...
    Have a look at font aliasing when configuring Application Server : http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B14099_19/bi.1012/b14048/pbr_font.htm#i1006140
    If your Application Server is located on Windows I would suggest to install the fonts there.
    In Unix, this a more complex task.

  • Font issue between Reports Designer and Report Output

    Hi.
    I've succesfully migrated several reports from 6i to 10g (10.1.2.0.2) with and without parameter form. However, I have the following font issue:
    - When report is run from Reports Designer, font is kept.
    - When report is run from a forms module (through rwserver on the same machine, that is not really from an application server, but using Oracle BC4J or Developer Suite enviroment) the report output is different. In this case a bigger font is displayed and occasional truncation happens for some fields.
    The question is: How can i avoid this difference in font behaviour?. Is it font.ali related?. How come this happen on the same machine(Windows XP)? These reports are to be deployed on Linux, where reasonably, and font machine is expected to happen.
    Font used: Arial (Occidental) 9

    this might be an issue with the printer that is associated also, and the permissions to the printer that you might have..
    login to the application server machine and restart the reports server as an admin..try running the reports via the URL..i have a feeling that this issue might be somethiing to do with the permission(s) to the printer from your AS machine

  • ICal Print List Hang / Font Issue / Sync Problems...

    Okay, here's a couple issues all wrapped up into one thread/post - reason is cause I suspect they may all be tied together somehow, but am not sure.
    Sync Problems...
    Regarding the Syncing problems, you can find an ongoing thread about @ http://forums.markspace.com/viewtopic.php?t=1632
    In short, some of us are having issues with events syncing to our Palm to the wrong timezone, causing them to be an hour off (usually within the new & old DST date change). Yes, all the usual fixes have been tried - pls read the thread noting "adairnet" and ymatto" postings.
    Also, in addition to this time issue, I have iCal events that I've deleted in iCal still show up on the Palm after one-way syncing!
    Print List Hang...
    Every week I print a "list" of events from a certain calendar. The past couple weeks I noticed some lines in the notes field printing on top of each other. Twas odd indeed, but I hadn't had the time to look into the reason. Then this week I was going thru my usual printing proceedure and now iCal locks up, hangs up, crashes, forcing me to force-quit the program. It's usually after I extend the dates beyond 2 or 3 days, but I've not been able to find a consistency. I've redone events thinking they were corrupt with no success.
    Font Problems...
    After the Print List issue above, I opened my Console program to see if it was reporting anything. At first it indicated that it could not find Helvetica Neue and would substitute it for Helvetica. This put me in touch with some font corruption - so I got rid of those bad fonts and activated Helvetica Neue which got rid of that message. But made me wonder if there are more font problems causing the print hanging & syncing problems. I have FontAgent Pro and do have some font issues that I'm trying to work out.
    But the Console is displaying another string of messages every time the Print List proceedure hangs up which I cannot figure out...
    2007-04-24 16:24:54.151 iCal[28975] NSATSGlyphStorage inconsistency. Cannot find run storage for character range {138 67} for CTRun 0xDBE87D0. Ignoring the run...
    2007-04-24 16:24:55.175 iCal[28975] -[NSMutableStringProxyForMutableAttributedString replaceOccurrencesOfString:withString:options:range:] called with out-of-bounds range. For apps linked on Tiger this will raise an exception. For earlier apps it will produce this one-time warning and continue with existing behavior (which is undefined).
    2007-04-24 16:24:55.176 iCal[28975] * NSThread: ignoring exception '* -[NSMutableStringProxyForMutableAttributedString replaceOccurrencesOfString:withString:options:range:]: Range or index out of bounds' that raised during delayed perform of target 0xdde58d0 and selector 'renderPreview'
    So, all of this is causing me to wonder if the iCal or SyncServices database is corrupt. Is there a way to dig into the iCal db and check for corruption &/or fix it?
    Or does anybody have any further suggestions on any of these issues?
    thanx.jason.

    RedKamel,
    The SyncServices folder should be avoided like "a swarm of bees". This article discusses some of the issues that can arise when the SyncServices folder is deleted or modified:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301920
    Data loss and Data corruption can result from deleting or modifying the SyncServices folder, and that data loss or corruption can be propogated to devices, .Mac, and other applications that sync with SyncServices.
    If you have isolated an issue with the other steps in your post, I would recomend speaking with AppleCare before removing that folder.
    Hope this helps,
    Nathan C.

  • Acrobat 7 Pro - Comment Summary Font Issue

    We have a situation involving font usage in comments in Acrobat 7 Pro that I hope someone can shed some light on. It will be some time before we can move to version 8 or 9, so the problem is important to us.
    Here's the symptom, then I have a few basic background questions. The text in a Note comment includes a 'less than or equal to' symbol which appears correctly. The problem comes when the comments are summarized to a PDF file or printed. The 'equal to' portion has now disappeared! I first thought that this might be a font issue, but now am unsure.
    My basic questions are:
    What font is Acrobat using when a comment is created? I realize that you can set a preference for which font to use when viewing comments, but apparently not when creating them?
    When a comment summary is created to a PDF file, what determines which font is used in the summary? We have seen cases where the resulting PDF has used Arial or Tahoma or SimSun or.........
    We have had at least one situation where opening the same Acrobat 7 PDF in Acrobat 8 Pro did not exhibit the problem when summarized there. Was this a known issue that was repaired in Acrobat 8?
    Thanks much for any information you can provide.

    Hi David,
    This is a known issue with Acrobat on Mac.
    Please follow the steps mentioned in the KB : http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/blank-eula-screen-appears-acrobat.html
