Errors with missing font hoeflerText

I had some problems with iweb and someone in the forums recommended turning off the hoefler font in the font book. I did this and it actually did solve my problem.
Now, when I navigate through iweb I receive intermittent messages that this font is missing in regular and italic. I guess there must be pages using the font?
I'm wondering if:
1. It would be okay to turn the font back on at this point. Probably not.
2. Is there a way to disarm this message?
3. Is there a way to easily find the pages that include this font. I have a LOT of pages.

Packaging with missing fonts

I have (what I consider to be) a complex issue with missing fonts when packaging a project for print. I’m fairly new at using ID. It’s a little complicated, so I’ll attempt to be as precise as possible. When I package my files, a warning comes up in the package summary about missing fonts. Now this is where it gets a little tricky – three of the fonts are listed as “not installed” in the package dialogue box. When I check my Fonts folder, both Minion Pro and Bookman Old Style “parents” are there. The Minion Pro “children” are not listed in my Fonts folder but the Bookman “child” is there. When I attempt to find the font within my document (to make the correction) using the Find Font button of the Package dialogue box, none of the fonts are listed as being present in the document. I am at a loss as to what to do. I cannot send this project to the printer with missing fonts. Any assistance anyone could provide would be greatly appreciated.

You most likely have modified some font or paragraph styles that reference these fonts or a leftover rogue invisible character like a spacer that uses those fonts in its style. ID will retain that info in the derived style, if you only changed a part of a formatting. This is nothing to worry, even more so since whoever will use your file will have to have the same Adobe software which includes those fonts to open your ID native file and it's irrelevant for PDF files.

Help with missing font matter

The problem started after adopting Windows 7 OS. I have many manuals written in previous version of InDesing which some Type 1 fonts were used.
In my Windows 7, there is no type 1 fonts (furthermore, Type 1 fonts are not compatible with Win 7). So all fonts wirtten in Type 1 were replaced with TTF.   But when I open those indd files, I am getting a missing font error (see the attachment). In all of my indd files, there is no more fonts written in Times T1 fotns. I could not get rid of this error dialog box. Could someone advise me how to fix this problem? This drives me nuts. hummer

> it's usually defined in [Basic Paragraph].
Again, all T1 fonts and anything written in T1 were purged already.
The issue could be Basic Pargaph.   This is sometnhing I should look into.
Where or how to find Baisic Paragraphy?   I lost in the unfamiliar lingo, Basic Paragraph.

Exporting as a PDF with missing fonts - help please?

Hi,
I am using Windows In Design CS4 and an agency provided us with a template via Mac OSX.
Some of the fonts they used appear to be missing on Windows (mainly the ITC bookman family), I open the file anyway. When I export it to a PDF the PDF appears for the most part to be the same, despite the missing fonts.
My questions are:
Is the copy now just a closest match chosen by In Design (I think it may be using Bookman Old Style? If not, what is stopping me using font inserted by an external agency?
Does anyone know the cheapest place to buy the ITC bookman family?
I appreciate your help; I’m a beginner who has to teach himself!!
Neil

Bookman Oldstyle should be a very close match (if that is, indeed, what's getting substituted). I wouldn't bother buying ITC Bookman, unless you have to roundtrip your files with the agency. Substituting fonts and checking line endings would get old fast.
So you can be sure of what's getting substituted, go to Type > Find Font, find all usages of ITC Bookman and replace them with Bookman Oldstyle. It seems like you have a PDF from the agency, so you can compare a few substitutions and see if anything changed. You should expect line endings in running copy (long paragraphs) to change slightly.
If you really feel the need to buy ITC Bookman, I would just buy it from ITC (http://www.itcfonts.com/fonts/detail.aspx?PID=201890). Their price is not going to be much different than anyone else's. Check with the agency to make sure they have Type 1 ITC Bookman, not Opentype ITC Bookman, and then buy the same format they have. It's even possible they have a Truetype version. You would want to match it exactly, so you would have to buy the same font that they have, but in PC format instead of Mac format.

Error message Missing Font

Hello there,
I am working on manuals that sb else wrote and I'm about to crazy here. FM11 keeps telling me that one of the chapters uses a font that I don't have on my machine. I checked both the character and the paragraph catalogues and can't find any entry that uses said font. Is there anywhere else I need to look?
Thanks in advance

missing font
It's an extremely common issue. The causes are legion. The fixes and workarounds vary with Frame version.
The missing font is often not even used or declared in the Frame document. You can verify that by searching the MIF.

Importing excel with missing fonts

I've got a spreadsheet for my employees and the spreadsheet does the neccessary calculations and I then import it into indesign cs2 on mac. The problem is it claims the fonts are missing fonts and the layout is compromised. I then have to painstakingly select the fonts. I have read an article saying that there are many different types of filetype for a font. How do I install the neccessary fonts to indesign, I took a look at the fonts folder and there was nothing in here, which is strange as it should have the fonts that are currently available in indesign.
What filetype of the fonts do I require? Or does anyone have a script for me? The required fonts are:
Lucidia Grande Bold
Lucidia Grande Regular
Times Regular
Verdana Regular
Any help appreciated.

Thanks for all your input people. I am creating the excel worksheet myself from excel 2004 for mac. I can select the fonts and they're available from the selection list. I read that there are many different types of font, post-script, other type etc etc and they look upon them as different fonts though they are the same. I think that could be the problem.
I'm using an old mac, power pc which is starting to go out of date now, though I am very happy with it and only starting to learn the software. Not sure if CS3 is compatible with my machine, and I really don't want to as most of it is working great.
Thanks for advice people - much appreciated!

Error with missing files after force quit

I just spent hours building project management pages for work when the program would not respond I was forced to force quit. Then when I try to reopen I get an error and it tells me that all of the fonts and content is missing. When I click on each page it shows me images from templates that have gone away. Has anyone experienced anything like this?

If you have the 'keep' option enabled and let iTunes do the work - take a sound track album as an example - that has various artists and you didn't tell iTunes that the album was a compilation album - then iTunes will put all the tunes into into the iTunes Music folder as Artist>Album>Song - if you have the compilation option enabled for the tunes on that same album - iTunes will nest it as iTunes Music>Compilation>Album>Song. This helps reduce the clutter in the iTunes Music folder with a thousand artists and only one tune for that artist.
With the 'keep' option selected iTunes will move tunes automatically within the iTunes Music folder. Since iTunes moved the files it can keep track of the links.
To create a second library launch iTunes with the 'option' key down and follow the dialog box instructions. I have a 'Master iTunes Library' on my internal HD and several ext HD's with other libraries which I give unique names i.e.: Really Big Music. I give the library data base file its' own unique name so I don't accidentally erase the wrong file. I also keep all the files that you would normally see for an iTunes library on the ext HD (iTunes library. .xml, art work etc.,). If you are into lots of movies and TV Shows you could create a library on and ext HD with only video content and name it accordingly. You would keep all the files for that library including the library 'management' files on the ext HD in the same nesting as you would find on your internal HD.
This strategy works for me. I tried to manage the files by myself at one point and just had to many problems so I decided to not fight City Hall and go with the flow and it works for me.

Export to PDF error with embedded font

Hello,
i have added a Barcode font to a report and it is failing to export to PDF now saying it that the "font is not allowed to be embedded in document". i have tried with two different Barcode fonts A39W and C39W and both fail.
I have looked at forums which suggested downloading patches and updating the registry key ForceLargerFonts to 1, however this has not worked in either V9, V10 or V11.
Can anyone help??
Many thanks,
Hugh

Hi there,
I'm experiencing the same problem, except with the
Frutiger 45 Light font. When I try to export the report from Crystal Preview to PDF I get the error,
++++++++++
Failed to export the report.
Frutiger 45 Light - Font is not allowed to be embedded in document.
+++++++++++
I'm using CR Developer, Full, version 11.0.0.1282
I've checked in Windows XP and can see the font (a ttf) present with the other fonts installed on my PC in the Fonts folder accessed via the Control Panel in Windows. I can right-click on the font Frutiger 45 Light and see the Properties page for the Font. For all the Groups/Users I can see all the Permissions enabled except for Special Permissions.
I dont know what you mean by getting the security changed from the supplier of the font to allow embedding into the PDF?
My colleague was able to perform the same export from Crystal to PDF on his laptop, but it was an older laptop. So there must be a difference between the way our laptops are configured that is causing the problem. The version of CR is the same on both laptops the only obvious difference we can see is that the older laptop has Adobe version 6 installed and the new laptop has Adobe version 7, both machines have Distiller installed. He's now got an upgraded laptop and is getting the same error as I am.
Any help here would be much appreciated.
Regards
Robert.

Composite invoking Spring Context errors with Missing class indicator field

Hi. I’m working on a composite with a Spring Context component that is referenced in a BPMN process and have run into some issues and I was hoping you may have some insight.
I’m able to deploy the composite successfully, however when I try testing it on the SOA Server, it fails with the exception below:

I've tried adding the jar to the classpath, installing the jar on the weblogic server, adding all the dependencies, and adding the jar to the project sourcepath. None of these worked either. Any Help would be appreciated.

CS3 Indesign error with missing dbghelp.dll

Has anybody got a solution for this?

Thanks John
The problem is solved!! I have created a function whose entry is a char and the output is a PMString.
My char variable has UTF-8 encoding. This type of encoding is described in "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UTF-8".
The key is to convert each char to integer, but some characters (for example cyrillic) are saved into 2 or 3 bytes. So it's neccesary to read these 2 or 3 bytes to generate their decimals.
For example:
char myText[] = "й"
myText has 2 bytes: 11010000 and 10111001, so that, reads these 2 bytes and transforms to decimal (1081). This number is assigned to PMString with the "AppendW" function.
This is the function (it works with 1, 2 or 3 bytes):
PMString Convert_UTF8_to_PMString (char * myText)
PMString myString;
int total;
char binary[4];
bool two_bytes = false;
bool third_byte = false;
for (int cont=0; cont < strlen(myText); cont++)
int i = CHAR_BIT;
while(i>4)
--i;
binary[7-ib]=(const char)(myText[cont]&(1 << i) ? '1' : '0');
int num = myText[cont];
if (strncmp(binary,"110",3)==0)
// 2 BYTES
two_bytes = true;
total = (num+64)*64;
else if (strncmp(binary,"1110",4)==0)
// 3 BYTES
two_bytes = false;
total = (num+32)*4096;
else if (strncmp(binary,"10",2)==0)
if (two_bytes)
myString.AppendW(total + num + 128);
else
if (third_byte)
third_byte = false;
myString.AppendW(total + num + 128);
else
total = total + ((num + 128)*64);
third_byte = true;
else
// 1 BYTE
two_bytes = false;
myString.AppendW(num);
return myString;
Thanks!

Missing font error on PDF conversion

FrameMaker book that has been updated and converted with same set of fonts and styles many times will not convert to PDF on one machine. (I use a Mac running XP in Parallels for Frame, then Distiller Mac.) The error is "findfont" looking for Helvetica-Oblique. This and all needed Helveticas are present, and I've updated this machine's Distiller's PDF font settings to know where they are--to no avail. I have set Distiller to either warn and continue or ignore missing fonts.
This same file converts with no trouble on a second Mac with the same set-up. Acrobat distills with warn and continue, the substituted and/or non-embedded fonts clearly visible in the job log, through all 182 pages of the book.
Is the problem a corrupt font? Bad settings file (and where might I locate it to replace)? Something in what Frame is generating (.ps file)? Printer driver (Acrobat printer actually hangs on either machine)? Should I post this query to the Acrobat forum?
Thanks for any insight....
Karen Robbins

Forgive my erroneous terminology.... Yes, FrameMaker can open the files with missing fonts. No problem finding .ps files: I actually distill manually because Distiller is on the Mac. No, I am not using a default printer that lists Helvetica Narrow Bold as a built-in font. This font occurs in a file to which I import a large amount of tabular text that is preformatted by an MML file. We've been doing it this way for more than 5 years. This will probably make you cringe: Helvetica Narrow is not, and has never been, installed on the Windows side--only on the Mac side where Distiller lives.
There are now potentially two problems:
1) When FrameMaker is set to a printer other than Adobe PDF, a .ps file is generated and yes, I can see where the file chokes in Distiller; if I modify the suspect font on that page, the .ps file will distill up to the next instance of that font. This problem is correctly dealt with via warn-and-continue and/or substitution settings on a second machine with the same set-up as the one on which the problem occurs. Note: Using Parallels to run Windows XP, which uses an HP printer driver to reach my physical local printer (regardless of the make/model it happens to be). On the second machine, I have network printers and several different PPDs.
2) When the FrameMaker printer is set to Adobe PDF on the problem machine, no .ps file is generated because that printer does not find Helvetica Narrow Bold--apparently just as it should.
Because FrameMaker can generate .ps files and Distiller can distill them on a second machine with the same (apparent) set-up, from the same source material, I want to understand what it is about the fonts, or the font substitution instruction, that is possibly causing the problem. Or, perhaps adding an additional printer PPD (one that works on the second machine) to the problem machine could clear this up?
Thanks for more insight....

Missing fonts in cs4

Hello All,
I have installed CS4 on my XP desktop after uninstalling CS2 completely and I am now having some font missings from the applictation.
Although the font name like "Arial Black" already exist on the PC but its not finding it. When I open an existing Indesign CS2 file( I am getting an error message saying few fonts are missing and then a find a font box coming up with missing font names marked with yellow !.
I dont know how to add these fonts back into the CS4.
Someone advised me to delete all "adobefnt*.LST" files but this did not work either for me.
Please can you advise how to do this?
Thanks
S

Fonts are never unloaded when installing software. In the case of Arial Black, go to Arial, and see if Black has been added to the Arial family (where you see Bold, Italic, etc.). As well, Adobe software will sometimes sort files differently than other applications, so look carefully though the list to see if the ones you are missing are sorted somewhere else.
Fonts are often loaded with software, and probably this has happened with CS4 (I am on CS3). You might have gotten new versions of some of your old fonts. This could cause the problems you are seeing in ID. I think you can just tell the files to update to the new versions, if this is the case.

Is there a way to automate missing fonts in thousands of small pdf's for print

Greetings,
We are receiving thousands of small PDF's from several differnet locations with missing fonts. The controller on the printer is having to perform
font substitution on each page. This causes the printer to cycle and not run at rated speed.
I am wondering is there a way to have these files insert all the missing fonts before they reah the controller on the printer?
Thank you so much.
HDRDR

There are tools out in the market which should be able to embed and fix missing fonts. You might look at something like PitStop server.
If no commercial product is out there, you might talk to the developers of such tools for a customization.
Hope this can help.
Max Wyss.
