Folio11 Fonts Not Compatible in Photoshop v5?

I have am having trouble with new fonts from Folio11 not being displayed on font Text menu in photoshop version 5 (I know its very old version).
I understand that photoshop v5 ascertains/borrows its font styles from Windows.
New folio11 fonts are recognised in MS Word Documents but not photoshop v5, how can I fix this small techinical issue
Regards
J

The fonts in Font Folio are OpenType fonts. Photoshop 5 (not CS5) dates back to a period of time when our applications only supported Type 1 and TrueType fonts. Photoshop's font handling has nothing to do with Windows; that is not the issue. And yes, modern versions of Microsoft Word (since at least Word 2000) do support OpenType fonts to some minimal degree.
You are not going to like this, but the only workaround is to upgrade your copy of Photoshop which was released sometime prior to 1999 if I recall correctly, prior to the release of the first OpenType CFF fonts provided by the current Font Folio.

  • Font not available in Photoshop CS6 or Illustrator CS6 (Mac)

    I have installed the Frutiger font family in the font library. It appears in the drop-down menu in InDesign, but not Photoshop or Illustrator. How can I make the font available in these programs?

    It’s a ttf file – Frutiger. I’ve managed to get it into InDesign, but not Photoshop or Illustrator. Always seem to have problems with this font!

  • 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.

  • Print Studio Pro plugin is not compatible with Photoshop Elements 12 Editor for Mac

    It appears that the latest version of Print Studio Pro PlugIn is not compatible with the Editor version of Photoshop Elements 12 for Mac as available on the App store.  The install gives an error saying that it did not find a supported version of Photoshop Elements. This error has been reported before for Elements version 12 but was reportedly fixed in the latest version of Print Studio Pro. Now it appears that this version may support Elements 12 for Mac but not the Editor only version from the app store. Any suggestions for work-around on this?

    "Any suggestions for work-around on this?"
    No! 
    Not untill Mac and Adobe and Canon get their collective acts together.  Mac (Apple) has the bad habit of upgrading their stuff and not being forthcoming with the particulars given to 3rd party companies like Canon and Adobe.
    Besides the cost difference of Mac's the compatibility issues are it's worst features.

  • Saved printer information is not compatible with Photoshop Elements 11

    Hello - After successfully using PSE11 to print photos on my Epson Artisan 810 printer, the printer died and was replaced with an Epson Artisan 837 printer.  The new printer works on ALL of my other applications EXCEPT I receive the following error message after hitting 'print' on Photoshop Elements 11.
    MESSAGE:
    The saved printer information is not compatible with this version of Photoshop Elements, or the saved printer is no longer available.  You will need to check your printer settings before printing.
    You can see from the screen print attached that the Epson Artisan 837 is a validly installed printer.  All advanced settings were available for selection/modification, and all printer drivers are up to date.  Also, uninstalled and reinstalled the printer without resolution of the problem.
    Can anyone please point me in the right direction to resolve this issue?
    Thanks so much, Debbie
    Running:
    Windows XP sp3 (up to date)

    You did indeed lead down the correct path with only a little modification required in the naming (see below).  Thank you so very much!! 
    Here's what I had to do to get this to work:
    1 - I first tried to rename this printer to a generic 'DSLW Printer'.  This renaming worked for ALL OTHER applications except Photoshop Elements 11 even after rebooting my PC.  Received the identical error message listed in the original message.
    2 - I then renamed the printer as 'EPSON Artisan 810 Series'.  This was of course a lie but matched the printer as named by the 2010 original Artisan 810 installation.  VOILA!  This does work for Photoshop Elements 11 (jpg and psd files tested) and the other applications that I've tested.  Hopefully all other testing will provide equally successful results.
    So problem seems to be resolved BUT is this a question/problem that I should pursue with either Adobe or Epson?  I do know that the 810 and 837 only differ in the ability to print from a wider variety of wireless devices (e.g. cell phones & tablets), otherwise the functionality is virtually identical.  Did Epson drop the ball or did Adobe?  Or maybe it's simply that I'm a die hard XP sp3 (32 bit) user until forced out by Microsoft.
    Thanks again!!

  • CS3 file not compatible with Photoshop CS4?

    My son uses Photoshop CS3 at college. He worked all day on an image (120MB), and saved it on a USB stick. When opening at home with Photoshop CS4, the "Reading Photoshop format" appears, then an error message "Could not complete your request because the file is not compatible with this version of Photoshop."
    He has been burned before by a USB stick, but all the other files seem OK.
    Is there a solution to this?

    ^First thing I did was make a copy.
    QuickTime Picture Viewer (which seems to open other PSD files) says it is corrupted.
    Adobe Bridge can read the metadata, gives no preview, and won't open the file.
    Any other thoughts?

  • Fonts Not Compatible with Windows 8

    We've had some problems with fonts not working in Windows 8. Are all OTF available via Adobe Type campatible? The files we're having problems with have the extension of .PFB. They are visble via c:Windows/Fonts but do not work in our applications.

    Windows 8 (as well as Windows Vista and Windows 7) should be fully compatible with all Adobe OTF (OpenType) fonts as well as Type 1 fonts.
    Note that Type 1 fonts require two files per font, the .PFB file with the fonts' outlines and the .PFM file with the fonts' metrics. Such fonts are installed by right-clicking the .PFM file and selecting Install. Note that the .PFB file must be in the same directory as the .PFM file for the installation to work.
    Assuming that you have the fonts already installed, they should work with all classic Windows applications. However the Type 1 fonts are not recognized by Windows WPF applications as well as those explicility written for Windows 8's  new so-called modern application interface. Applications such as Visio have not supported Type 1 fonts in years. We also know that a bug in Windows causes Internet Explorer 9 and Internet Explorer 10 to hang if they call for a font that has the same name as a Type 1 font you have installed.
    Perhaps you provide more information about what fonts you have installed with what applications that don't work or are not recognized?

  • Windows Fonts not showing in PhotoShop CS6

    Newly built Windows 7 Machine, installed the fonts and they show in all office Apps but not showing in Photoshop CS6, can you tell me how to get them to appear?
    Thanks

    Photoshop lists all fonts that are present in 'Fonts' folder in Windows.
    If PS is not listing some fonts:
    Either those fonts are not located in 'Fonts' folders (Windows keeps it in a secret statsh as they're proprietary to Windows 7)
    One or more of those fonts are corrupt. Adobe doesn't list corrupt fonts. In fact, often times Photoshop hangs when you have one or more corrupt/ invalid font registries on your system. Scan for corrupt fonts and remove them
    Can you post the 'fonts' that are 'missing', so we can see if they have any associated known issues with Photoshop?

  • All fonts NOT loading in Photoshop, Flash, etc.

    I have installed a mass amount of fonts (around 2000) on this computere and for some reason Photoshop and Flash only read up to the end of letter G. It doesn't even list standard fonts anymore if their names start after the letter G. I have tried many things including clearing my font cache, removing all Photoshop files and reinstalling it, etc and nothing seems to be working. Does anybody have any ideas?

    can anyone help me find good sanskrit fonts and
    sanskrit transliteration fonts for OS 10.4.6.
    i am working on a book and need this for it. thanks
    for the help
    For a specialized question like this it is best to start a new topic, rather than tag onto something discussing the problems of large numbers of fonts in Adobe apps.
    OS X comes with the font Devanagari MT, which should also work for Sanskrit, although there are some special conjuncts it probably cannot do. No other font can do them either, however.
    http://homepage.mac.com/thgewecke/TypingDevanagari.html
    The font Lucida Grande probably contains everything needed for Latin transcription of Sanskrit, though there are probably others you could use like Charis SIL or Doulos SIL.

  • Some Fonts Not Compatible with Intel Macs?

    ID CS3.
    I have an Intel Mac running Tiger, and opened a ID CS3 file and installed the PostScript fonts that travelled along with it. Or tried to anyway! :)
    The fonts would make FAP3 quit when I'd try to import them. And they wouldn't work properly if I installed them manually in ~/Library/Fonts.
    Corrupt fonts I'm a thinking!
    So I diagnosed them in Font Doctor which found no problems at all.
    Then I tried using the fonts and the ID CS3 file on an older PPC Mac, and everything works perfectly!
    Has anyone heard of PostScript fonts not working at all on Intel Macs?

    Thanks Nini, but I also went to the extent of installing a new internal HD and installing & fully updating the OS on it. Same problem.
    I believe Buko is correct about these fonts. Customer is going to need to buy new ones! :)

  • Font not showing in Photoshop (works in non-Adobe programs)

    Hi all,
    One of the fonts I want to use in Photoshop CS6 is not showing up. I installed the font, it is working in Word / Gimp / Paint.Net etc, though not in Photoshop or Illustrator. In the picture below you see the font preview, the installed font properties, a preview in Word and the absence of the font in Photoshop.
    Does anyone have a clue how to fix this?
    Thanks in advance.
    Bram

    There must be something in the font's encoding that Adobe doesn't like. If you run the font through an application like Font Validator it shows several errors. I guess Adobe apps are more stringent with fonts than other applications.

  • Why do downloaded fonts not work in photoshop elements 10 but work fine in other applications?

    Having trouble with downloaded fonts in adobe photoshop elements 10.  Can anyone suggest how to fix this problem?  The font does not show detail (all filled in black) in elements but is perfectly fine in other applications on my mac. 

    PSE simply uses the system fonts. Have you installed the font in the default location?
    Are you using a small font size on a large resolution image?

  • .OTF Fonts Not Loading in Photoshop CS3

    Post harddrive replacement I have been re-installing lost things, including Photoshop CS3 and font packages that I had on my system before.  While the fonts have been successfully installed on my Mac, they are not showing up in Photoshop.  The fonts have been upgraded since my prior use (old versions that worked with leopard would not install on snow leopard), so they are *different* then what worked before.  But looking around online it seems like the .OTF format should work find with CS3.  Ideas?
    Thanks so much!

    To what location did you install them? Are they showing up in other applications?

  • Fonts Not Available in Photoshop CS3 (Windows 7)?

    Hello,
    My desktop computer crashed yesterday and I had to run out last night and pick up a new unit as I'm trying to meet a number of deadlines (and not having much luck getting the work done in my laptop).
    The new computer uses Windows 7 as the Operating System.  It has already presented a ton of headaches... I've already spent in excess of ten hours trying to reinstall hardware and dealing with the various quirks that arise.
    The latest of these issues is that I cannot seem to access some fonts from Photoshop CS3.  I'm having the same issue, to a lesser extent, in Illustrator 10.
    For instance, after downloading the Helvetica and Helvetica Neue families in Windows 7, they do not appear in the Type menu in Photoshop.  There are a ton of useless pre-installed fonts there, but not the ones I installed.  If I try to access them from Illustrator, it displays only one weight of each typeface (for instance, it displays Helvetica Neue 65 but omits 55, 75, 95, etc....).
    The issue does not occur for all fonts.  For instance, I installed AvantGarde and it displays just fine.  In that instance, the fonts were TrueType whereas the Helvetica font files are Type 1 font files.
    Can anyone help?  I've already lost a day-and-a-half of work, and can't afford to spend much more time screwing around with this nonsense.

    Bill,
    Thanks for your thoughtul and thorough reply.
    To clarify, I do have a copy of ATM, but just have not installed it on my XP computer or this new one.  It is on my Illustrator 10 install disk.  Not sure if it will work on Windows 7, as Illustrator 10 would not run on the new computer until I set the compatibility to work with Vista and earlier.  I suppose that I could install it and see if it works.  Might be worth a shot.
    I will check out the software titles you referenced.
    With regard to font installation on Windows 7, there are three techniques as far as I can tell.  They are:
    1) Drag and drop method: Works the same as it always has.  Simply drag the typefaces into the Fonts folder or Control Panel > Fonts.
    2) You can navigate to where a font file is located (the desktop, for instance) and then right-click on it and choose "Install."  This is what I referred to previously, and I tried it after drag-and-drop did not work.
    3) For the third method (according to Windows 7 documentation I found online at http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/w7desktop/thread/324ecdc6-8574-4527-8099- efc430bf550f), you are supposed to be able to go into the Control Panel > Fonts, press ALT (to display the menu) and then choose File > Install New Font.  You would then be prompted to navigate to the typeface you want to install.  However, this option is not available on my computer.  When I tried it, I can access the File menu, but "Install New Font" is not listed on the dropdown.

  • Apple Symbols font not working with Photoshop CS2...

    This seems rather strange to me, but only a few characters will type....I've tried 'option+key' - 'control+key' - shift+key and 'apple+key' ....and the ones that show up, I do not even see in the font book display of this font. I have done a search and found a document about "special characters and symbols", but could not find the described character palette in PS.
    Should I be using some other key - like an F key or something?

    Hello
    Perhaps your script used to work under pre-OSX10.5 (AppleScript 1.x) but now fails under OSX10.5 (AppleScript 2.x)?
    If so, the most likely cause is the drastic change in internal text handling between them. In AS2.x, internal text is Unicode only, which might prevent PSCS2 from resolving 'file path_string' descriptor (when path_string is assumed to be plain 'string', not Unicode text).
    Try the following code instead -
    tell application "Adobe Photoshop CS2"
    open ("AV:logo:rot0001.png" as alias)
    end tell
    Or -
    set a to "AV:logo:rot0001.png" as alias
    tell application "Adobe Photoshop CS2"
    open a
    end tell
    Hope this may help,
    H
