CS4 - library fonts not working?

Does any body can give me a hint how to use loaded into
library fonts? What
I'm doing is:
- add dynamic field instance 'txtContents' to the stage
- all used characters are added to 'character embedding'
- font Arial is assigned
When AS3 insert some text - all is working ok.
Now I'm adding the same font to library and selecting 'export
for action
script'. In AS3 code:
font=new Font1();
style=new StyleSheet();
obj=new Object();
obj.fontFamily=font.fontName;
style.setStyle("p",obj);
txtContents.embedFonts=true;
txtContents.styleSheet=style;
txtContents.htmlText='example';
It works fine only for ASCII characters. E.g. Polish
characters stop to be
displayed. How to force Flash to embed also other characters
then ASCII?
Regards,
Marek

Intelligent barcode font not working in Data Merge?
When using Data Merge I only get a pink box where the code is supposed to go. If I cut and paste the same info into the spot the bar works fine. Anybody ever have this problem?

New fonts not working in photoshop...

I have installed new fonts on my mac but they will not work in Photoshop.. can somoene help me? I don't know if I have done something wrong or need to take another step.. I am running CS4 and OS 10.6.4. The message I get when I try to use a font I recently installed is "Could not complete your request because something prevented the text engine from being intitalized." Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Most likely you have some corrupt fonts installed.
Try validating the fonts using FontBook to find the most obvious problems.

Embedded CFF font not working in TLF in latest stable build and higher (4.0.0.13875)

Hi there,
We are using embedded fonts with the TLF framework and since upgrading to the latest nightly build or the stable build, it stopped working. Here is a short example:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:Application xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
                  xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"

     <fx:Style>
          @font-face {
               embedAsCFF: true;
               fontFamily: "Courier";
               src: url("COURIER.otf");
               advancedAntiAliasing: true;
               fontStyle: normal;
               fontWeight: normal;
     </fx:Style>
     <fx:Declarations>
          <s:TextFlow id="tf" fontSize="20">
               <s:p fontFamily="Courier" fontLookup="embeddedCFF">hallo is dit courier?</s:p>
               <s:p>hallo is dit courier?</s:p>
          </s:TextFlow>
     </fx:Declarations>
     <s:VGroup>
          <s:RichEditableText textFlow="{tf}" />
     </s:VGroup>
</s:Application>
Any idea why it doesn't work anymore. The same example works fine compiling with build; 4.0.0.11686.

HELP! CS4 Disk Will Not Work!

Hello All,
I need some serious help, Adobe support is closed today and I need CS4 to install. Here is my situation, I recently bought my imac along with cs4 and everything was working perfectly. On Saturday like an idiot, I tried to add PS to my dock and I accidentally moved my whole PS folder off of my HD. I put the folder back into my HD applications folder, but then when I tried opening an existing PS file, I received a message to reinstall PS. I put in my CS4 disk, click setup, put in my password, see the bouncing icon on my doc and then it just disappears, nothing happens. I uninstalled CS4 totally, even did the clean uninstall thing from Adobe, restored my OS and still nothing! I have been reading the forums and tried everything I read, I deleted the Library/Application Support/Adobe folder, I even deleted the Adobe folder within my Logs folder.
Here is the error I am receiving: "'std::runtime_error' Invalid path passed to FileSystemPath constructor".
Why can't I insert the disk and it work like it did when I first bought the disk! I am so frustrated!
I appreciate any help any could give me!
Thanks!

Could you describe what you have tried?
To make sure you are copying the old sessionstore.js file to your currently active Firefox profile folder, you can open that folder from inside Firefox as follows (either):
* "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Troubleshooting Information
* Help menu > Troubleshooting Information
* type or paste about:support in the address bar and press Enter
In the first table on the page, click the "Show Folder" button
Please note that before touching the existing sessionstore.js file, you should exit Firefox and allow time for it to close files. Either:
* "3-bar" menu button > "power" button
* File menu > Exit
Then rename it to sessionstore.old before copying in the file you want to use.
Note: if Windows does not show .js extensions on file, please see the steps in this article to show them so you can work with files as accurately as possible: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/865219

TrueType Font Not Working .. Help!

So, for my work I have to use PeopleSoft for my Expense Reports, and they use a barcode at the top of the page that uses a font called "3 of 9 Barcode". i have downloaded the font, installed it into \Library\Fonts and verified it shows its installed. Here's the weird part:
If I use TextEdit, the font performs as expected, however Pages, Safari, TextMate, Word 2008, etc will not show it correctly. They just show normal characters, no barcode.
What am i doing wrong? I have rebooted, logged out, etc. I even tried two different copies of the font from other sources. They all do the same thing: TextEdit works, nothing else.
Help!

Just clearing this from my profile.

Lucida Grande font not working on CS6

Just installed CS6 on macbook pro - Lion 10.7.4 - Lucida Grande font works on CS5 but not on CS6. Can someone help? I have tons of web stuff designed with this font.

Try the below mentioned steps and then check:-
1.   Drag the contents of the Library/ Fonts folder to a new folder on the desktop. (If you manually added fonts to the Library/ Application Support/ Adobe/ Fonts folder, also drag those fonts to the new folder.)
2.    At the Finder, choose File > Find.
3 .   Type AdobeFnt.lst, select the system drive, and then press Return.
4.    Delete all AdobeFnt.lst files found (for example, AdobeFnt10.lst).
5.     Restart the computer.
6 .    Restart InDesign. InDesign creates new AdobeFnt.lst files.
      Try to re-create the problem. Then, do one of the following:
If the problem doesn't recur, move one font back to the Library/Fonts folder, and then repeat steps 5-6 until you identify the problematic font.
If you have a font management utility, restart it and activate fonts in small groups or individually to identify the problematic font.
If the problem recurs, move the contents of the new folder on the desktop back to the Library/Fonts folder.
Note: If no adobefnt.lst file is found in the search, make sure that the search criteria are set to 'any' in the Find dialog box.

Live fonts not working

just bought a new iMac with fce pre-installed... working on livetype projects to import and having trouble with some live fonts... templates seem to work fine, but some livefonts i've used don't animate. Installed the livetype media discs 1 and 2, said installation successful, but still not working. (They were installed to "library/application support/livetype".) I've restarted the computer, etc, but the media browser in LT still shows "no" in the "installed" column.... i'm confused & frustrated... AAAHHHH! What am I doing wrong???

"Pre-installed" by Apple or from a previous owner?
You can search this forum for similar topics. We see improper install issues fairly often. The possible issues are many and some depend on the user's administrator status when installing.
If you navigate to > (They were installed to "library/application support/livetype".)< and double-click on some of those files, what happens?

Embed fonts not working

Hi,
I want to embed fonts within my Application but somehow it is not working.
I am doing the steps as below:
I am compiling fonts swfs in Flash CS4 with Publish settings as Flash Player 10 & ActionScript 3.0
Then I am having css files which I am compiling with mxmlc like: mxmlc c:\Palatino.css.
It is compiling and giving me swf file as Palatino.swf. I am doing this with "Adobe Flex 3 SDK command prompt"
Then I am loading these files with "StyleManager.loadStyleDeclarations".
But still when I am changing the fontFamily to "Palatino", it is now showing it.
I have attached the Palatino.css with this. I am using Flex 3.2 with TLF version 442.
Please let me know if I am making any mistake.
Regards,
Rajesh

Hi Abhishek,
Thanks for the reply.
Actually in my project which was previouly built in Flash 9 we were using TextArea.
We first have created Flash files for all fonts first (in Normal, Bold, Bold Italics...). Then we have all the css files like one which I have attached before. Then we compile this with Flex 3 SDK command prompt with mxmlc.
Then we have already worked out to load these font swf files and use them.
I just want to follow similar approach here for TLF.
Let me know how this can be achieved.
Rajesh

Why does set font not work in report generation toolkit?

I would like to change font and underline when inserting text into a Microsoft Word document. I have tried using the
"Set Report Font" vi directly in front of an "Append Report Text" vi in my own application. The inserted text at the bookmark is always in the default text mode
of the document. Is this a bug?
I also tried the find and replace vi with the same result. Font will not change.
I also cannot find any examples of this usage that work. See example vi file below.
Save at C:\ or adjust the template location accordingly in the vi.
Can anyone help me out?
Thanks,
Chris

That's a cool tool Ben! However, with a bookmark, you know the location on a Word Template, and if you know the location in MS Word, you can then set the fonts you want in Word.
Do you know how to change the fonts in a string?
Example, How do you insert this block of text on a SINGLE MS Word bookmark?
PART NUMBER: 1234567890
DESCRIPTION: These lines are formated dynamically, some orders may have 1 PN, and other orders many have 500 PNs.
I'm formatting my line details and inserting them on a MS Word bookmark. After the initial bookmark I have no more control of the fonts for the entire string block. I'd like to dynamically change the fonts in a string and I'd like to use MS Word. I saw HTML report writing, but, in my particular application, HTML reports will not work.
Doug
I don't have the time to try anything but as a suggestion I would experiment with the range start end properties (e.g. from start =0 to end =
12 bold is true, from 13 to 23 bold is false, ....) You first insert text without formatting then you use the range start and end to format the text.
I'm not sure it will work but it's worth a try.
Ben64
note: I would create a 2D array of start and end index of your string and auto-index a for loop that contain the range property node.

Font not working in pages

I have a double font suite and both fonts are showing up in the font menu but one of the fonts just displays regular text when typed and not the graphic font that it is supposed to display. The other font displays correctly. Both fonts are in font book and my library font folder. Any advice.
iBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.8)

It sounds like the problem you have isn't an iWork problem, but some more general font issue. I'd suggest looking in the general Tiger discussion boards, and see if there is an appropriate category there to post your problem -- you may get folks with more expertise in this area, who may be able to help you resolve your issue.

Library Fonts not loading in CS3 under Snow Leopard

I just noticed this: Most of the fonts in the HD/Library/Fonts folder are not being read by CS3 applications. This includes old favorites like Verdana, Trebuchet, Arno Pro, etc. These fonts are being read by Apple apps like Pages and Text edit. Anyone else having this issue?
I think a solve would be for me to have my Font Management application load these fonts.
Details:
I installed Snow Leopard on a freshly erased drive. Updated to 10.6.1. Installed CS3 Design Premium. Ran the Adobe updates (which was much more difficult than it should have been!)
Thoughts, ideas, suggestions?

CS 4 and Cs 3 they load as expected on my Mac Pro? Tr resetting the preferences.

Iweb + dreamweaver CS4 + dropdown menu not working on all pc's

I created a dropdown-menu on CS4 DW, pasted it in html doc. and is part of my iWeb created site.
Looks ok on apple: safari/firefox/iphone.. but on any pc does not matter which browser, it looks awfull, and the jumpmenu simply is not working.. what can I do to correct this?
Thanks.

By jumpmenu are you referring to the navbar at the top? It's well known that IE is not friendly with iWeb's navbar. The workaround for that is to create your own Text Based Navbar.
As far as the drop down menu, is it java based or html based? I'm not familiar with what does an does not work with IE as I don't do windows so can't help you anymore there.

Armenian Mshtakan font not working in MS Word

Hello,
I am able to use the Armenian Mshtakan font on a Macbook pro using OS 10.7.5 only in Text Edit. It will not work in MS Word.
Is there any way to get Mshtakan font to work in MS Word for Mac? Currently using MS Office 2011.
Microsoft's website states that it does not support custom fonts due to security issues, and yet there are some custom fonts that DO work in
Word, Does anyone have any ideas on how to get this to work?
I've tried clearing the cache file for MS Office Preferences, tried copying the font in fontbook to the Microsoft fonts folder. None of these things have worked.
Thanks!

I've got the same problem.
Have you found the solution yet?
