Embeddable fonts for epub Windows 7

Hi,
InDesign (CS4 in my case) only allows embedding embeddable fonts in an ePub.
Looking at the Windows font folder, I see the following categories:
Blank, editable, installable, print and preview, restricted license.
Does anyone know which, if any, of these means that I can embed a font
in an ePub?
Thanks,
Ariel

What are your export settings? Where are you viewing the EPUB? Have you cracked it open to see if there is a fonts folder? Does the CSS show the proper font.
Finally, nothing wrong with a class if it has a purpose. For main body text you can use a p tag without a class. If the first paragraph after an h2 has a special format you can use h2+p to create that stylinging in the css. Of course, this assumes a knowledge of CSS and the willingness to crack open the EPUB to work on it.

Embeddable Fonts for EPUB?

I'm using ID CS6 to create EPUBs. When I try to export anything other than the usual Times New Roman, or other basic fonts, the fonts don't show up in the exported EPUB.
For instance, I've tried using Minion Pro, Warnock, Lucida, etc. and all I get at the other end is either a bizarre substitution, or Times New Roman.
Every paragraph and character in my ID docs is assigned a paragragh or character style, which includes export tagging, and usually a class. I've had people on forum boards tell me I'm foolish for assigning classes, but how else are you supposed to distinguish between two h2 styles with different attributes?
Rather than place text from Word, which I've noticed imports a host of other problems on export, I copy the text into a simple text editing program, make it plain text, then copy and paste into ID, then apply styles to format. The embed fonts checkbox is checked when exporting.
What am I missing? What qualifies as an embeddable font? I should mention that I am viewing the epub in ADE. Could this be the problem?
Update: Just noticed that none of the character styles I've tagged as span are coming through either. The em and strong character styles work, but nothing tagged span will be properly styled in the EPUB. I even tried applying styling to characters without creating a style and it doesn't work. For instance, SMALL CAPS come through as small caps.

How do I increase the point size and change the font for the windows and boxes on Maverick such as the tiny print on the email inbox list of messages. Can increase size on the actual message but not on the list of messages.

How do I increase the point size in the dialog boxes and especially on the list of messages on email? I can increase the point size and font of actual messages content but not the LIST of emails in my inbox. They are too small for me to read.

You buy it and install it or use one of the free knock-offs you can find on certain websites. There is no Helvetica on Windows otherwise and there never was. That's what Arial is for...

ClearType support for font rendering on Windows?

JavaFX 2.1 or higher supports LCD text - that's fine. But there is a big rendering difference to native font rending on Windows - JavaFX 2 text doesn't look as sharpen as Windows native apps looks. It's because we need clear type support like in JavaSwing!
Is it planned to implement native font rendering with clear type?
Best regards,
Tobi

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.

Why can I no longer specify my preferred font for text which has a link attached to it?

I use TBird to send old school, professional looking business letters with logo image header and footers. Recently, I am unable to apply my preferred font to the website link part of my footer. This seems to have become an issue after one of the more recent upgrades of TBird. Its frustrating as I feel good graphic design requires uniformity in font style/type and size. This seems no longer possible. Now when I attach a hyperlink to my website address it changes my preferred font to something that looks like Arial and locks both font and size. It looks crappy.

''Kits47 [[#answer-701080|said]]''
<blockquote>
The only way I know its 12 pt. is that I copy into Word and check the font size there.
</blockquote>
Huge error number one, and probably cause of your problem in the first place.
<blockquote>
I would really like to see TBird use point size for fonts.
</blockquote>
Thunderbird uses HTML, HTML is expressed in pixels.
<blockquote>
In terms of not having Papyrus on you Linux box, I suppose that's you're choice.
</blockquote>
Licensing actually, not choice. The font is licensed and distributed by Microsoft. See http://www.microsoft.com/typography/fonts/font.aspx?FMID=1113 for a list of products your recipient can install to get the font.
<blockquote>
In my outgoing email subject line I always specify that my reply is best viewed in HTML, full screen.
</blockquote>
HTML is the default for almost all mail so that does appear to be overkill. Full screen. Personally I would be just as likely to not read mail that required full screen. Mail gets about half a screen here.
<blockquote>
Most systems will automatically substitute fonts for ones not on that system, at least in Apple and PC systems. </blockquote>
Papurus actually has a higher chance of being present on a Mac system than a windows one as Apple have distributed it with OSX since 2003.
<blockquote>
Anyway all of that is a little off topic. I wanted help with why TBird intermittently messes with font size and style when I cut and pasting email responses to people.
</blockquote>
As I said at the beginning. Do not use word. Word first converts to RTF then to HTML (All done internally) The resulting HTML is extremely complex and to put it bluntly pastes as a whole page from which Thunderbird must extract only the relevant parts. (inside the body tag) The end result is the program ends up confused about what goes where.
<blockquote>
And, if there is some reason why sometimes, again I stress sometimes, it will not let me use the font of my choice for text that has a hyperlink attached to it.
</blockquote>
If your pasting from Word the most obvious thing will be that the hyperlinked text will have it's own font tags another reason I suggest you use the program your in.
* If you want it on paper use a word processor. It is what they are designed for
* If you want it in email use the email program to actually write your mail.
* If you want to guarantee the look on delivery send PDF attachments.

How to embed fonts in ePub (Pages 09)

^ That's my question, basically. I want to self publish an ebook, but it has some unusual fonts for the chapter headers, and I know that unless I embed them somehow, ereaders won't automatically pick up on them.
Is this possible? And if so, could someone give me a rundown please?
Ta much!

Do a google search on "embed fonts epub" to find info on how you have to modify the code to do that.

Font for photo info does not work on this MAC

We are running a new MAC (OS 10.6.2, 2.66 GHz Quad) with Lightroom 2.6. When I try to add photo data to a contact print, I see a series of boxes with AAAs. I got the same result with the Identy Plate when I changed the font. I changed to another font and it was fine. This leads me to believe the default font for photo info is not supported on this machine. We really need to use the photo info feature. Is there a way to either
1. Change the font to one that is supported on this machine
2. Add the default font to this machine

Considering the hundreds of thousands of Windows apps available, I doubt you're going to find such a list.
Is there a comprehensive list posted somewhere that show which PC software has compatibity issues?
Well since Windows software does not run on Mac OS, every application is going to have compatibility issues.
You'll either have to buy the Mac version (if available) of the software you want to use, or install Windows on the Mac.

Fonts for Pages

My wife is wondering if there is any more fonts, Windows type, for "Pages"? She is only using 67 Windows True-Type. She's worried about compatibility in e-mails, attachments, with our friends who are all Windows/PC users.

The great thing about this was that Apple licensed to Microsoft the TrueType technology that rescued PCs from type that looked totally and utter cr@p both onscreen and in print. In return Microsoft never delivered on their promise of a TruePrint technology. There must be high-fives all round at Microsoft every time they sucker Apple.
Like most matters in life, it's not so simple, sorry.
Bas, the scalable spline technology, was developed by Sampo Kaasila who in 1983 graduated top of his class from Kungliga Tekniska Högskolan in Stockholm, that is, from the Royal Polytechnic. Kaasila then went to work for Imagen Corporation in the US, and then from August 1987 to August 1989 for Apple on the spline programming language. Kaasila also developed what came to be known as the TrueType Variations technology. Kaasila is now R&D Director for Bitstream.
Royal, the internationalisation logic, was developed by two of the contributors acknowledged in the Unicode Proposal of 1988, David Opstad and Eric Mader. Opstad now works for Monotype and Mader for IBM on ICU International Components for Unicode, that is, on the internationalisation element of what once was Taligent. TrueType Specification version 1.0 was published in parallel with the Adobe Type 1 Specification, that is, in mid-1990.
TrueType 1.0 for simple obligatory shaping with the CMAP Character Map was implemented for Microsoft Windows 3.1 by Gregory Hitchcock. The intention was that Microsoft TrueImage would compete with Adobe PostScript and Apple TrueType would compete with Adobe Type 1 (and Agfa/HP Intellifont, Sun F3 Folio, Bitstream/HP Speedo and Fontware i.e. any and all so-called simple character-coded composition models).
With the Apple TrueType Specification and the Adobe Type 1 Specification going open and going public, Linotype which had partnered with Adobe and Apple in late 1984 saw the writing on the wall announced at DRUPA Druck und Papier in Düsseldorf that its leading composition products would be merged with the leading H e l l separation products to form the world's largest and most powerful prepress platform for imagesetting type matter and tone matter.
At FOGRA Forschungsgesellschaft Druck und Medien in München in April 1992, Adobe showed Carousel (later Acrobat) and it was announced that at that point the number of PostScript font program dictionaries available as Adobe Type 1 stood at 12,000 (twelve thousand). Following the publication of the PostScript Language Reference, Second Edition, in December 1990, Microsoft announced to Seybold in 1991 that TrueImage would not stay compatible with PostScript since PostScript did not have a colour architecture that supported the screen (a CSA > CRD transform is not invertible from CRC > CSA so it is possible to preview the printable colour appearance on the screen).
The deal between IBM and Microsoft on OS/2 and its Presentation Foundation fell through at the same time. In the grab bag OS/2 table of the TrueType Specification a sub-tag, the FSTYPE function, was introduced in order to support editable embedding of the font file in the file format of authoring applications including Microsoft Word. In technical terms, this approach preserved the source character string and the simple obligatory shaping of the CMAP Character Map so that style of face, size of face, justification, hyphenation and tabulation was WYSIWYG and at the same time editable since the font file travelled inside the Microsoft Word document.
Adobe went another way, arguing that if all professional production was by way of PostScript, then first capturing professional production in PostScript and then converting PostScript which is a page-dependent sequential access page description model into a page-independent random access page description model that permits pages to the accessed in any order the way the pages of a printed book are accessed in any order was the way ahead. The problem with it was that Adobe began by corrupting the source character string and then had to fall back to synthesising the source character string from cross-font glyph identifiers, whether the Adobe Glyph List or the Association for Font Information Interchange name list.
In mid-1993, Adobe published Acrobat 1.0 without search and Apple started seeding QuickDraw GX which included Apple Portable Digital Document technology. The International Color Consortium was formed in 1993, but the the transformation technology was somewhat simplistic in that it assumed that a print device was luminous linear in XYZ and that matrix-based transforms would suffice. The objections to this lead to the introduction of LUT Look-up Tables for print devices alongside matrix transforms for more linear devices such as monitors. The ICC archicture, unlike the PostScript architecture, was invertible and bidirectional from the start in order to support repurposing requirements including proofing.
In May 1994, Adobe acquired Aldus and thus blocked the QuickDraw GX graphics architecture that competed with PostScript. Aldus and Linotype-**** had already formed the Font Consortium to try to pressure Apple to make TrueType 2 cross-platform, but seeing the success Microsoft had with TrueType 1 and Microsoft applications that supported as well the source character string as WYSIWYG, Apple did not want to licence TrueType 2 whereas the file format of ColorSync 2 became the foundation of the International Color Consortium because Prof Dr Gerald Murch who headed the talks was convinced that Apple would never sell a single operating system on the argument that it was CIE managed from the ground up.
On the world wide web you can find posts in developer discussions where David Opstad says that in his view Apple should not licence TrueType 2 in order to preserve the advantage for Apple. The ColorSync 2 file format did survive to be succesful, but the TrueType 2 file format hitherto has lingered with John Jenkins posting that Apple internally does not have high regard for the rival extension tables termed OpenType, but on the other hand it is plain to see that Apple has done an truly terrible job of evangelising its internationalisation models, let alone supporting them in Apple system software and Apple application software.
In 1994, Dr Timothy Berners-Lee succeeded in setting up the World Wide Web Consortium and CEO's had to change perspective. I seem to remember William Gates as well as Dr John Warnock changing perspective at that point. But by then the starting point was unequal as in abstract archival space the condition is that you identify digital documents by their content of character information, and here Adobe's strategy that started by destroying the source character string was technically harakiri. So, now we have the problem of unknown amounts of viral type and unknown amounts of PDF that preserves the appearance but not the content.
In 2005, Microsoft made it clear that Adobe Type 1 would not be supported under the Presentation Foundation of Microsoft Windows Vista and in 2006 Microsoft left the International Color Consortium, of which it was a co-founder. The disagreement was over the ColorSync 2/ICC model which defines determinate, runtime-independent rendering for colour-colourant transforms, which incidentally is the same mould as the TrueType 2 model for determinate, runtime-independent rendering. The main opponent of this development model has been Adobe, by the bye.
This is a short summary, based on public posts with the people involved as well as private talks.
In 2005, Adobe had Pamella Pfiffner write a twentieth anniversary book on the Publishing Revolution, but the book is a celebration of Adobe's business model and not a discussion of Adobe's drawing models for composition, drawing models for separation, and document models for pagination.

Fonts for Photoshop

Hi,
I seem to remember the last version of photoshop having a lot more fonts available for text mode, so I was wondering, is there anywhere on the adobe website where i can download more of them?
Thanks

ps hasn't shipped with fonts for... like, ever. i've had every version since 6. the last couple gave you 1 free font family with registration though.
ps gets all it's fonts from windows. maybe you got them from something else? office? corel draw?

Fonts for RedHat Linux

The Adobe font store lists fonts for Windows and Mac. What about fonts for Linux?
We are using LaTeX on RedHat Linux and a requirement is to use the Adobe Univers 57 Condensed font family in a report I am generating.
The IT department is leaning towards requiring use of Type 1 fonts rather than allowing use of OpenType fonts.
Which Type 1 product (Mac or Windows) do we need to license for use on Linux? And just in case they allow OpenType fonts, which OpenType product (Mac or Windows) do we need to license for use on Linux?
Is there anything else we need to consider in regards to using Adobe Fonts on Linux? Same for use with LaTeX on Linux?

You can almost certainly use Windows Type 1 fonts in your Linux app (though some require .AFM files, these are also supplied with the fonts, even though Windows doesn't need them).
On the OpenType side, the fonts are the same files for Mac and Windows.
Your only complication is that to use the Adobe download manager and get the files in the first place, you may have to do the purchase from either Windows or Mac OS.

T
