Can't install Simsun font

I have a Word document which uses the Chinese font Simsun. I found the font file in the MS Office/Fonts folder but I can't seem to install it in FontBook -- when I try to add it, nothing happens. FontBook doesn't hang or anything, it's just . . . nothing. The font doesn't appear in the list.
Is this an issue with the font itself or with Font Book?

I put Simsun in cherylkohler/library/fonts (I don't have a "home" folder, I assume this is what you mean)
If from the Finder you do Go > Home, you presumably are in the cherylkohler folder, right?
I wonder if there is something about 10.3 which doesn't like that font? (I'm using 10.4 but I did not think there should be a difference). Did you restart your machine?
Another place you can ask if necessary is the Word newsgroup:

How can i install bangla font in my nokia asha 311...

How can i install any font in my nokia asha 311 manually. Help me....please (signhnsk). It's my last chance. I cannot distrub you any time. Help me.....

Ah? As already said, it isn't possible for you to manually install languages. You need to flash a different software variant of the phone which contains that language built-in.
So better is to visit the Nokia Care Center and ask them to do the job

You cannot install fonts or other keyboards on the iPad. You can make suggestions to Apple here.

Can't install a font I need for work - please help! 10.4 ={

Hello,
So I am trying to install this font on my work computer, which is old and has os x 10.4.11 (tiger?). I have downloaded the TTF file onto the desktop. When I double click to install it, it says I need to choose an application and none of them I tried will work. I have a brand new macbook myself and downloaded the same font - worked fine because I could put it right into font book.
The problem here is that I cannot find font book anywhere on this computer and have not found any helpful discussions on how to re-install it or about different ways to get this font downloaded and usable. I have tried everything I can think of. I would just make these damned brochures on my own computer, but then they won't convert to this one.
Anyways, super frustrated - any advice/places to get font book/or something else I could use would really help. I don't even care if it's a round-about way of doing it, I just NEED this font!!
Thanks ahead of time!

Is the font compatible w/Tiger?
The Font Book is inside the Applications folder. If it is not there, use Spotlight to search for it. If Spotlight cannot find it, you can custom install Font Book directly from the system DVD that originally came w/your MBP. Use the custom install option. It should be inside the Bundled Software folder. If not, there, it will be inside the Applications folder.

I got a free mobile font from Fontshop International (FontFont). Can I install it on my iPhone or is it for developer use only?

You cannot legitmately install fonts onto your iDevice without modifying it but this will cause you to loose warrenty on your iDevice.

CS2 I believe is PPC based so will not work on Lion, Mountain Lion or Mavericks. Either you will need to update to a later version or reinstall Snow Leopard.

Can't install LWFN fonts

Hi,
I have three font families (composed of around 40 files) in PostScript 1 format and whenever I attempt to open them with Font Book, I get no result. Dropping them into the dock icon does nothing, I can't drag them into the folder list on the left hand side and when I attempt to go through the 'Add Fonts' option, all of the fonts are greyed out and unable to be selected..? Can anyone help?
Cheers.

Hi Jeremy,
The LWFN file is the outline printer portion of a Type 1 PostScript font. These will not work on their own.
You should be able to find your answer here. Read down a bit in the thread for my post and the following one by Mark Douma.

Can you install Sinhala fonts for iPad 2 ?, Can you install Sinhala fonts for iPad 2 ?

There are lot of sri lankans who are interested in buying the iPad but there is a huge problem with the language barrier. If you all make an app for this as soon as possible , believe me there with be a lot of happy apple users

You can't add fonts to the iPad so that they are available in every app, only Apple can do that - so if a third-party wrote an app that included it, it would only be available within that app.
You can try leaving feedback for Apple and maybe support will be added at some point : http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html

Can't install fonts in user/library/fonts folder

I have a problem which has a number of different symptoms (I presume they are related as they all started at the same time):
I can't install any fonts into my user/library/fonts folder. Or, rather, I can install them but they vanish about five seconds later
I have three files on my desktop. Every 60 seconds (precisely) they vanish for about a second and then reappear
Seemingly randomly, but always when I empty the trash, I get a message saying "The last time you opened Finder, it unexpectedly quit while reopening windows. Do you want to try to reopen its windows again?"
The error message I get in (3) above always disappears when the desktop files blink as in (2) above.
These problems only started in the last 24 hours. Yesterday I installed an update which took me to Mail 6.6. I also installed a Microsoft update to Word. I also installed an update for TechTool Pro taking me from v6 to v7.
Solutions I have tried:
I have checked SMART status (no problems)
I have verified volume structures (no problems)
I have reset boot and kernel caches
I have deleted font caches
I have reset home directory permissions and ACLs
I'm running a MacBookPro with Mountain Lion 10.8.5
I am stuck, puzzled, frustrated but hopeful that someone in this community can help me out.
If you can, I would be so very very grateful.

If I am reading it correctly, do I boot using the drive copy, change premissions using utility, then reboot using the original drive? Is there another way to repair premissions, change password?

Also when I called Wacom support they actually had me create a new user account to install the software. It's odd that I can install the fonts in the applications folder in one user account but they do not show up in the administrator account.
As I stated, if that new account was an admin one, the fonts should be available to all users. Alternatively, they might be user specific, but you'll have to ask Wacom about that.

Hi folks,
I can't install new fonts to kde konsole. After an "Install bitmap" I got

Install new fonts

dear
how can i install new fonts on my nokia E90. so i can read the the doc file in my mobile correctly
thank u

Try this
Go to file manager and create a directory c:\system\fonts,Copy the fonts from PC windows\fonts to this directory.Else copy the files in C: of phone.Go to file phone manager and move them to system\fonts. You can see the system directory by turning on "see system directory" while you are in file manager of the phone.
This works for communicator 9500. So should work you E90 too.

Problem installing .pfm font

I've just bought a 15,4 mbp unibody;
i've read couples of post about fonts installation problems, mainly due to the nvidia geforce 9400-9600 and bootcamp version.
For myself, i can't install .pfm font on my windows, where i get a message "not a valid font file", even though i was able to install the exact same font on another pc, and on two other mbp, bought a year ago.
Any help or shared concern will be appreciated,
Olivier

Start by rebooting the computer. If that doesn't work, search for adobefnt*.lst and delete all instances where * becomes a 2-digit number.
