CS6 Fonts Removal

I've just installed CS6 trial version. I've noticed that a considerable amount of fonts have been installed on my system, most of them I have no need for.
Which font files can I safely remove without negatively affecting application performance?
Thanks in advance
Mariano

Have you rebooted? What format is the font? Does it show correctly in any applications?

PS CS6 has a different set of installed fonts than my old PS CS4. How do I get my old fonts back? Don't like most of the newer CS6 fonts. Dell Precision, Windows 7. Does PS use the fonts in the Windows directory or does it use its own? If so, where are they in the directory? A lot of my preferred fonts show in the Windows directory but not in Photoshop, which does not display them within the program. Please help. If I get free fonts (NOT CC fonts) from elsewhere, where do I put them for Photoshop[ CS6 to use them? Thanks.

All versions of Photoshop get their fonts from your OS. Just install any missing font wherever Windows keeps fonts.
I don't do windows myself.

CS6: Fonts not showing up in Indesign or other adobe programs

There are missing fonts in several of our files due to moving our marketing inhouse.
I have installed the Avenir complete font family into C:\Windows\Fonts and a lot of them aren't showing up in InDesign or the other Adobe programs.
After looking at some other forums I followed the instructions to place them into;
C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe InDesign CS6\Fonts
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Fonts
STILL The only fonts showing up are;
Avenir 35 Light
Avenir 45 Book
Avenir 55 Roman
Avenir 65 Medium
We have already been using this font for all our printing so changing is not an option.
Could someone give me some other suggestions?

Have you rebooted? What format is the font? Does it show correctly in any applications?

FontBook corrupted ? adding back Fonts (Removed), Fonts Disabled

Hi everyone,
similar to many other people i got some of my fonts screw up after MS Office installation.
I tried to restore default fonts in FontBook, but it claimed that some fonts are missing.
There are no fonts in my ~/Library folders: Fonts, Fonts (Removed), Fonts Disabled.
However, there some in /Library: Fonts (Removed), Fonts Disabled which I would like to bring back.
So the question is - how to do it?
In /Library/Fonts Disabled i see Arial, Timew New Roman, Verdana, Wingdings. I guess all of them were disabled by MS installation
and then replaced by MS versions.
My FontBook however does not show me those (e.g. I see no Times New Roman at all, so I can't re-enable it).
I suppose FontBook database is corrupted, so I should restart with Shift in safe mode and then FontBook should be fine, right?
What do I do with /Library/Fonts (Removed) to bring in back in a propper way? Will FontBook also be able to see those and propose their restoration?
I would appreciate if someone could say with confidence what to do step by step to add Fonts (Removed) and Fonts Disabled back in use. I don't have a TimeMachine running (yet, plan to do it soon), and I use Mac for work, so i would prefare to minimize risks of messing the whole thing up myself
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Denis.

My 2¢
Goto Versiontracker.com and download "Linotype FontExplorer X"
Move your Font Book preferences from your (Library/Preferences) folder and then make an archive of Font Book (Control-click, create archive in the Finder)
Delete the original.
Now, install/launch FontExplorer X.
There is an option to clean font caches during install - do that and your Mac will reboot.
Now, there is an option under the tools menu in FontExplorer X that sets your system font folders back to defaults - do that.
You should be good to go. FontExplorer X is free and an excellent font manager.
If you have any questions, post back.

Adobe Master Collection CS6 fonts

Where can I find a list of ALL the Adobe Master Collection CS6 fonts? Thanks

We are having the same issue. Currently searching for a solution. In our instance, it is not only word, but Excel and Powerpoint as well. Launching any of the applications and then logging out and logging in corrects the problem, however this is not a solution because we are setting up these computers in a lab environment.

InDesign CS6 Font doesn't work in table cells

Hi all!
I'm working in InDesign CS6 on Mac OS 10.6 Leopard. I have character and paragraph styles defined using a certain font, and they work just fine except when using them in table cells. I have the character style nested in the paragraph style, which is then used in the cell style. But it doesn't work. It inherits everything correctly except for the font. If I select the text, the font menu tells me it is the correct font, but it displays in a different font. I've tried exporting to IDML and resaving, but that didn't work. I'm stumped

Hi Jeffrey-
Indeed it should, and I see why using a formatted table would cause conflicts, but I am importing it as an unformatted table already. Built all styles in InDesign first, then imported as unformatted table. A few times it did work as expected, but most of the time it steadfastly refused to apply the correct font.
But in any case, that wasn't my only issue with the tables. My understanding of importing Excel spreadsheets is that applied table and cell styles will be maintained when the linked file is updated, but local formatting/overrides will be wiped out, which is why I was trying to get the styles working in the first place. However, after testing, I found that even when I didn't use local formatting/overrides, updating the linked file still broke my InDesign layout.
In my test, the only thing I did to the imported (unformatted) table was to apply the table/cell styles and adjust column width (which is unavoidable as far as I know - didn't see anywhere I could set column width as part of a style). But even then an update to the linked file removed all the styles and column widths I had set (and was also highly annoying as it gave me a separate error message about the formatting loss for each and every instance of the spreadsheet).
Could be a fluke, or could be I'm missing something, but for whatever reason, I just couldn't get it to work

Photoshop CS6 Font problems

I am experiencing an intermittent problem in Photoshop CS6. I have over 500 fonts loaded on my IMac. I'll be working on a project file and when I go to add text, the drop down menu will only show about a third of my fonts instead of showing the complete list. The only way to correct this problem is to shut down Photoshop and reboot my computer. Most of the time this will give me a menu showing all of the fonts. I have had this Mac for over two yeas and have not had such a problem while using CS5. Is this a bug in Photoshop or do I have other issues ? I have downloaded the latest Photoshop updates.
Equipment: IMac 27 with 3.06 dual core processor and 12 gig of ram. I am running Os 10.6.8.
As this is happening more frequently and has become very frustrating, any help would be appreciated.

Since you already said that you have downloaded the latest Photoshop upgrades (http://www.adobe.com/downloads/updates ), Then I will forward you to the next possible solution.
This would be to turn font preview off in Photoshop's preferences:
In Photoshop CS6:
Choose Type > Font Preview Size.
Select None.
Another solution is to turn off the following fonts:
The following fonts are known to cause problems when used in Photoshop:
Bustle (Mac OS only)
21kannmbn_ttf
GURAKH_S.TTF
JH_TITLES.TTF
SCREEN__.TTF
SEVESBRG.TTF
SF Tattle Tales Condensed.ttF
ZEROGEBI.TTF
Zippy.ttf
Haettenschweiler (Photoshop CS4 when run as a 64-bit application on Windows only)
Finally, another option is to Validate all the fonts through the Font Book Mac Os Application:
If you have a third-party font management program, such as Suitcase Fusion 2, there is sometimes a tool in your application that validates fonts. (For example, Font Doctor ships as a part of Suitcase Fusion 2.) Use this type of application as your first choice.
If you use a tool to validate your fonts, but the problem recurs, it's possible that the tool did not successfully validate your fonts. In this case, follow the steps in Solution 4 below to check for damaged fonts and to reset your font caches.
To validate your fonts through Font Book:
Choose Applications > Font Book.
Choose All Fonts in the Collection column.
Select the top most font in the Font column.
Use the Down Arrow on the keyboard to select the first font, then hold the key down to scroll through all your fonts.
If Font Book crashes, restart Font Book, and scroll through the fonts one by one to determine which font caused the crash.
If you are using Mac OS X (10.5.x), Ctrl-click on any fonts that are problematic, and choose to Disable that font family.
If you are using Mac OS X (10.6.x), Ctrl-click on any fonts that are problematic, and choose to Remove that font family.
I grabbed all these from Adobe Help, which offer a few other options you might want to explore if these don't help you.

After Effects CS6 - Font Dictionary Cant Be Read

When I try and open CS6 I get a box that reads
After Effects warning: The font dictionary can't be read.
Please restart your computer.
If this problem persists, please go to

Sorry there is not alot of info
I have tried restarting, uninstalling doing what it says on above and deleteing the adobefnt files and still can't get it to work
If anyone knows any fix to this it would be great.

As Todd said, 99% odf the time such errors are casued by "bad" fonts (freeware fonts, legacy fonts). Remove them and see if it makes a difference.

Indesign CS6 Font issue after saving

I have had this issue come up about about 4 times since I have been running CS6.
When I open a customers document everything is fine no errors. I save it the same way I do the rest of the 30 jobs a day. When I re open the fonts will not load. If I open the customers document again it is fine and all fonts work, this cause problems because all of th changes that have been done need to be redone, because the only way I have found to fix this is to save over it with a new copy of the customers files.
I am running CS^ creative suite on a intel 27" iMac OS 10.7.3
The file is being saved to a prinergy job server not sure what version of server software that is running. We have at least 30 jobs sometimes over 45 indesign jobs a day getting processed and it only seems to be a couple. I tried restarting indesign then the computer but no luck. If I have my troubled document open and the find font window open it shows that there are fonts not available, I then open the customers document and everythign is fine. With both documents open at the same time I can toggle between them and see the fonts are there for 1 but not the other.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Are you working with a Packaged file? If so, the problem is probably that youare moving the file out of the directory that holds the Document Fonts folder that is part of the package, or saving with a new name.

InDesign CS6 - fonts problems (Document fonts fight with system installed fonts, "font incomplete")

hello
First, Indesign function to automatically open fonts from "Document fonts" folder is fantastic, quasy font manager. BUT, fonts is available ONLY for THAT indesign document, no other application can use it, even from CS6 suite. This is probably the most stupid decision about how this function must work. IDEALLY, fonts will be available for ALL application inside CS package until indd doc is closed. If I need some font for editing links in photoshop, illustrator I need to install them. This workflow have wrong concept.
We now have problem, sorry Indesign have problem. Example, I need type1 font mt-symbol for mathtype AND for Indesign. This font is installed in c:\windows\fonts folder. Everything work fine. When I make package from Indesign and reopen indesign indd document inside package, Indesign report that mt-symbol IS INCOMPLETE. WHY, BECAUSE CONCURENT FONTS from both C:\windows\fonts folder AND FROM "Document fonts" folder. If I rename "Document fonts" folder, Indesign open font only from system and everything work properly.
THIS IS BIG PROBLEM, fonts circles around workflow/folders and always will be duplicates in "document fonts" and system\fonts folder because different application need same fonts.
Any solution?

Another problem with the Document Fonts folder that we just noticed: in CS5, you could place Windows Type 1 fonts (.pfm and .pfb) into the Document Fonts folder on a Mac and InDesign would activate them.
This no longer works in CS6. (Bug report filed.)
Huge bummer, as this was a great timesaver and workaround in a high-production prepress environment when working with old Windows files. Hopefully this was not an intentional change and will be restored in a later bugfix release, or at worst in CS7.

Matching InDesign 2.0 + CS6 fonts

We recently upgraded to new Macs running Mavericks OS and InDesign CS6.
We have several files created in InDesign 2.0 (on Macs still using OSX 10.4) that have fonts not recognized by CS6. Fonts include Garamond Ultra Condensed, Bodini Open, Adobe Garamond, Zapf Chancery CSATT Italic, and Helvetica Narrow.
Where is the font library InDesign 2.0 uses?
Where is the font library for CS6 that we should install these fonts in?
- Ken

Your fonts in the old Mac are probably in one of these two locations:
[Computer Name] > Library > Fonts
or
[Home folder] > Fonts for any users for that computer.
Back those fonts up.
Install them in [Computer Name] > Library > Fonts on your new computer. Those fonts will now be available for all users.

CS6, Font embedding and iBooks

Hi,
It seems that there is a bug with embedded fonts in an ePub.
Embedded fonts in an ePub created with InDesign CS6 do not show in iBooks. The "com.apple.ibooks.display-options.xml" file is included.
If I use Sigil to obfuscate the fonts with the IDPF method, the ePub is working in iBooks.
The Test files can get downloaded under the following link: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/9429870/CS6FontEmbedding.zip
(Hopefully there is an update with these lots of bugfixes coming soon)
Kind regards
Yves

I've got the same problem with you. I'm stucking with embedded fonts. My epub created with inDesign CS6 cannot open in Sigil if it is one document type. If epub created with book of documents in inDesign, it's OK. Maybe I have to back to CS5.5 in order to open it in Sigil to embed fonts.
Is there a way to embed fonts after exporting epub by inDesign without using Sigil ? I've tried many ways I've Googled but they didn't work.
Need help seriously.

Embedded html font removes spaces!

I have a dynamic html textField which has embedded fonts.
When I provide it with html, it is displaying formatted text
(italic, bold, underline, etc) incorrectly. it removes a space
directly in front of the formatted word.
e.g. unformatted:
hello world
formatted:
hello
World
I have tried placing the space inside and outside the format
tag and it makes no difference. Switching off the embed makes the
field display correctly, however my client wants embedded,
anti-aliased text.
This seems to occur quite randomly so that some formatted
text in the same textfield does not display incorrectly, while some
does!
There are font symbols for all my formatted fonts in the
library.
Can anyone shed some light?

Is the SPACE character included as well?
