Font Book will not print multiple fonts

I am having an issue with Font Book. I can print one font at a time but if I select multiple fonts (from a collection) it will not print, it just locks up and the print dialog box never opens. Does anyone know why or is there another free application that will print fonts?

Font Book Will Not Install New Fonts

I have purchased several new fonts that I need to use for an upcoming project. They are .ttf files. Whenever I try to install the fonts using Font Book, they do not install (no error messages or anything comes up) and it returns to the Font Book interface. I have restarted the app and restarted my macbook pro but I am still having the same problem. I've searched around but the only topics I could find regarding this were back in tiger. Any help?

Font Book is not a real font manager. It is not ready for prime time and may never be. I'd clear all settings from it and simply copy the fonts in question to your /Library/Fonts folder if you intend for them to be available to all users or to your <username>/Library/Fonts folder if you want only the user <username> to have access to them. That'll work.
If you feel that you must use a font manager, get a real font manager. Suitcase and Linotype's Font Explorer are real font managers.
I, personally, have more than a thousand fonts installed on my system and don't use a font manager. Especially I don't use Font Book. At best it's useless. At worst, it messes things up.

If I restore standard fonts in font book, will it delete the fonts that came with my Adobe Creative Suite program?

I want to reorganize my fonts; some I've received from my school to work on projects; others I got from work and some I've downloaded myself. If I restore standard fonts in font book, will it delete the fonts that were installed with my Adobe Creative Suite 5 program?

Font Book will not open...

When trying to open a font or open Font Book..
I keep getting the "Font Book Applictation quit unedpectedly" message.
I am unable to open it...
Any ideas?

Either Font Book's database is damaged, or you have damaged fonts. If it's the later, having damaged fonts will always in turn damage the database.
Follow the steps in Undoing Font Book. Note that you will lose any font collections you have created. Doing this will also clear the system's font cache files.
If after that Font Book dies again, then you have damaged fonts. To replace all fonts that came with OS X without reinstalling the entire OS, follow the last section in my article, Font Management in Mac OS X Tiger and Panther, to put all new copies of your fonts on the hard drive. Repeat the steps for Undoing Font Book.

6110 All-in-one sometimes will not print multiple copies

I have had this problem for sometime now. I searched the forum and found the Mopier solution for laserjets, but the 6110 does not have this setting. The same question regarding the 6110 went unanswered in the only post I found for it.
I am using the 6110 on WinXP Pro and connected by USB
Often times when I try to print multiple copies of a document (MS Word or MS Works as examples) I check 2 copies in the selection box but the printer only prints one copy. I then have to click Print again. What is strange is, sometimes it performs fine and others it will not print more than one copy at a time. Sometimes it SEEMS that if I change the "collate" checkmark it works, but proper functioning does not seem to be able to be recreated every time.
I do not get any error messages, the darn thing just acts like I have 1 copy selected rahter than two. I notice that when this happens and I go to print a second copy, the dialogue box has reverted back to 1 copy, but in those few times when it DOES print 2 copies, if I go back and select Print, it still shows 2 for the number of copies.
Any ideas? Thanks in advance

Hi there,
To make sure the software side of the house is in order lets try downloading and running the print and scan doctor located here:
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c03275041&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en
It can fix a lot on its own and if not give a better idea of what is going on.
Best of Luck!

IPhoto books will not print

Font book will not load

When I try to open font book I get the message that font book has quit unexpectedly and:
"Mac OS X and other applications are not affected.
Click Reopen to open the application again. Click Report to see more details or send a report to Apple."
The report information is long and complex.
When I open the font menu in a word processing program or outliner (such as OmniOutlinerPro) I get:
"Alert
* -[NSKeyedUnarchiver initForReadingWithData:]: incomprehensible archive (0xffffff94, 0xffffffca, 0x1b, 0x38, 0x30, 0xffffffc3, 0x16, 0x1a)"
I am not seriously held up by this non-functionality but it the fact that something doesn't work bothers me. I have seen nothing like this problem posted in discussions.
Any suggestions for a remedy?

One of your FontCollections has become corrupt.
Find the following files and move them to the Desktop to disable them:
/Users/~/Library/FontCollections/com.apple.Favorites.collection
/Users/~/Library/FontCollections/com.apple.Recents.collection
Then see if you still have the problem. (You may need to re-launch the application you were having problems in).
Font Collection files are stored as (keyed) archives, and NSCoder chokes on them when it can't understand the data in them.
Hope this helps....

Font Book will not work at all

Hi, i have been trying to install some new fonts using Font Book, but every time i hit install button, the Font Book just fails, it is very frustrating.
So far i have to drag the fonts directly to the Fonts folder in the Library which i don't like doing.
I have no idea what could be wrong so im asking if anyone has any information about this or is experiencing the same problem.
Thanks.

Thanks much for your solution, galvax. I can't say though I've ever heard of such a thing. Whether it's a different partition or drive shouldn't make any difference.
Just to be sure, I tested Font Book in both Leopard and Snow Leopard. I had no trouble opening fonts from any number of drives, both internal and external. So you may still want to consider reinstalling the OS. Without having to go quite that far back, reapplying the latest combo update also fixes many minor issues.

Officejet Pro 8600 will not print multiple copies

When I first set up my HP Officejet Pro 8600 I could print multiple copies. Not sure when, how, or why but I can no longer print more than one copy of any document at a time regardless if it is one page or 100 pages. I tried to update the drivers but the update failed as it said it could not uninstall the printer. When I did the error reporting it said there was no solution.
My OS is Window XP Home
The printer is connected via network.
I print mainly from MS Word 2010 and Adobe PDF files and I have the same issue from either program.
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Since the drivers and software refuses to update automatically, force it to. Uninstall all of the printer software and install it back using a fresh download. That will ensure that you have the latest driver and software for the printer installed and eliminate the need for updates for a while. I'll link them below. If that doesn't fix the problem with multiple documents not printing, try using an alternate driver for the printer. I'll link those instructions below. Let me know what happens.

ICal and Address book will not print using Snow Leopard

I have had several issues resulting in my having to re-install Snow Leopard several times. Currently all the issues are resolved, but now I have a new issue. The printer and PDF functions will not work. I dread having to reinstall Snow Leopard AGAIN. What is the deal?

This issue was resolved, thanks to a call to Apple Care support. Simply uninstalling and then reinstalling the printer driver fixed the problem. This may be necessary after another printer driver update.

HP printer will not print multiple copies of docs using new HP Pavilion HPE Series PC.

I purchased a new HP desktop computer with Windows 7. I connected my existing HP laser jet printer to the new PC and the drivers installed successfully. When I want to print multiple copies of a document the printer only prints one copy and stops. I can print multiple copies on my Kodak color printer from the new PC. I did not have this problem with my old PC. The issue only exists between the new PC and the existing HP laserjet printer. I have checked all printer preferences and settings to no avail. Any suggestions for further trouble-shooting?

printer model? is your win 7, 32 bit or 64 bit?

Font families consolidated in Mac OS X Font Book, but expanded into multiple fonts in InDesign CS6

I have an OpenType font installed on my system that appears in Mac OS X's Font Book as 5 fonts (regular, condensed, etc.). Within each of those fonts are the many bold and italic style variations, shown just as I want them. However, InDesign shows these fonts as dozens of different font families, and no more than 4 style variations for some of those families. How can I tell InDesign to consolidate this font into only 1 (or 5) font families?

It all depends on how the font designer created the font family.
Exactly which font family and which font vendor/creator are you talking about?

Firefox 3.6.9 / Windows 7 will not print using font specified with @font-face - any workarounds?

I've seen a few mentions of this problem around the interwebs, but can't find a resolution. I used [http://www.fontsquirrel.com/fontface/generator fontsquirrel's font-face generator] to prepare different versions of a font for cross-browser display. Screen presentation in almost all browsers is fine, and almost all browsers print the embedded font as well - except for Firefox/PC (3.6.9/Windows 7).
I have tried inline styles, styles inside of the head, and external stylesheets, all with and without media type print. What can I do?

Hi John,
Can u try the work around mentioned in the below link
http://notsomany.wordpress.com/2010/03/30/jinitiator-working-on-windows-7/
Also some times IE8 can block the webutil_file_transfer.
AS_to_Client if "protected mode" is ON for the security zone your forms url is in (look in the statusbar in IE ->
internet, trusted site, ... -> protected mode: On/Off)
Regards

Address Book will not print

I am new to MAC. I have spent the last month entering 1037 contacts into my address book. Now I cannot print it. The software itself does not respond. I have had to force quit it everytime. I tried to do smaller segments, but I actually cannot even print a single page. The little wheel turns and it states "not responding". I will even do letter size, but I cannot get it to do anything. I held for over one hour on Apple Support (and I paid big $$ for 3 year assistance, thank you)...So, it won't create a PDF, it won't print even a single page; I have given up on pocket size and would be perfectly happy to get lettersize. I found a link someone gave me to convert vcards to CSV but there are no fields...the addresses are a single row and it is a mess. Is there another software that will pull this out? I tried Entourage on my machine but no go. I will BUY anything after all this work. Thoughts? Ideas?

There are some other applications that can print your Address Book data. Rather than make a specific suggestion, I recommend going to http://www.versiontracker.com/ and searching for "print address book".
