Font doesn't work in Photoshop

Hey Everyone!
I was in MS Word 2007 the other day when I found a perfect font for a title. Knowing that I'd want to use it in other formats, I opened up Photoshop & InDesign to create a larger version of it. However, Photoshop refuses to use the font (you select the font and it just disappears). I did a little research on the internet and found out that the font I'm trying to use, Gautami, is supposed to look like this:
http://www.microsoft.com/typography/fonts/font.aspx?FMID=1570
However, I opened up the otf file and got this preview (which is what I'm looking for!)
Here it is in MS Word:
And now in Photoshop:
Can anybody tell me why this is happening? Did my fonts get switched up somehow? I'm dying to use the font as seen in the Word document :/
Thanks a lot for your time!

You've got it all wrong.  The english/latin character positions in Gautami are in fact Arial. Gautami also supports the telugi character set.
To see it completely, run Charmap (Start/Run/Charmap).
How you access the telugi glyphs may be different between Adobe and MS products. There have also been a number of different versions of Gautami delivered with different versions of Windows. At least one of them didn't have any glyphs at all in the positions for the latin (ABC) characters.

  • Automated batch doesn't work in photoshop & from Bridge

    Hi all,
    Automated batch from  Bridge  tools>photoshop>batch  Photoshop cs5 stops working. Automated batch also doesn't work in photoshop. Automated actions work in Photoshop. All other Photoshop process work  from Bridge. I use a PC with windows. This happens even with files I was  previously able to do an automated batch with Photoshop. It doesn't  matter what the file extension is. This has only recently begun  happening for no apparent reason.

    First, given what you've written, it's important to ask:  48 x 48 what?  Details matter.  48 x 48 pixels?  Inches?
    Beyond that, yes, I believe the Image Size dialog interacts with us a little differently than it used to.
    Whether it's a positive or negative design change I can't say.  They're trying to pack a lot of functionality in there, and it might take a little getting used to...  It does seem deterministic:
    If you want to keep the physical print size the same and increase the pixel density - i.e., upsample the  image - you would have to choose physical dimensions.  Try this:
    1.  Change the units to inches.
    2.  Change the ppi value and press OK.  This resamples the image.
    On the other hand, if you want to keep the pixel count the same, but just change the ppi value so that it matches a particular kind of display, how would you do it?  Try this:
    1.  Change the units to pixels.
    2.  Change the ppi value and press OK.  This changes the metadata.
    Are you trying to assume what leaving the units set to percent means?  To me it says "xx % of the pixel count".

  • Embedding fonts - doesn't work

    Another day, another Flash Catalyst problem.
    I check the box to embed fonts when I publish, only when I preview my output they are nowhere to be seen. Bottom line, Flash Catalyst doesn't work on a Mac. I've had nothing but problems. This program isn't ready for prime time at all. I've used betas of programs that are much more polished than this. I believed that there wasn't suppossed to be major issues when using FC with 10.7 Lion.
    That's not true, this program is so broken and flawed and such a frustration to use. Adobe can't be bothered to update even though they've had access to Lion for months. If they can't make a program that works then why bother releasing for the Mac platform at all?
    Lets see:
    1. Placeholders don't work.
    2. Importing Illustrator files doesn't work.
    3. Publishing with embedded fonts doesn't work.
    These aren't minor issues. They are MAJOR PROBLEMS!!! How did Flash Catalyst see the light of day on the Mac? Why was it released? Are these problems isolated to 10.7? Why aren't these MAJOR DEALBREAKERS listed? Can anyone at Adobe stand up and admit that this Flash Catalyst on the Mac is a total fiasco?

    I am sorry you are having trouble. I'm not running Lion on my Mac (issues with LDAP and a corporate network). With something like you are describing I would try two things before contact Adobe support. The first would be to try a fresh install. Maybe the OS upgrade wonked something. The other thing I would make sure is that my JAVA runtime is up to date. Flash Catalyst is built on Eclipse, which in turn in built on JAVA.
    Beyond, that these issue are more that I can help with.

  • Font problem (font doesn't work in preview?)

    I've been working on a book with the arial narrow fonts (regular, italic, bold , bold italic). I've tried using the open type and the true type version of the font but always end up with one of the fonts not working when I preview the book on my ipad. When I use the true type version, arial narrow regular works but the other variations don't (I also get a message that the true type version is not supported on IOS when it should... So it's weird...). And when i use the open type version narrow regular is the one that doesn't work...Does anyone know what the problem is?
    thanks!

    An iBA 'preview' is just a dumbed down PDF.
    For a reliable test that will duplicate what your users will see/experience, use iBA's Share/Export menu to output an .ibooks file, then drag that to iTunes and sync w/your iPad.

  • 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

  • Mighty Mouse - scrolling to zoom view doesn't work in Photoshop CS, why?

    I just got my new G5. Apple's new Mighty Mouse doesn't seem to work right with the main apps I use. You can't use the scroll wheel to zoom the view, in either Photoshop or Cinema4D (3d app). I tried turning off horizontal scrolling in hopes that it would fix the problem. Nope. No zoom. Can you remove the Might Mouse driver so it is just a two button/vertical scroll mouse?

    Doh! I thought that was on by default. It still doesn't work in my 3d app though, but I found out that is a know issue and the latest update should fix it. Thanks for your help.

  • Font doesn't work in Premiere Titler but DOES in After Effects?

    Having trouble figuring out what the issue is on this one. I'm using the GENUINE font, and when trying to create a title inside of Premiere, it doesn't work. It shows up as blocks/rectangles. If I use the font in any other program, such as After Effects (or Illustrator, Word, etc) it works fine. See screenshots below:
    In Premiere:
    Using After Effects:

    Titler is probably the most font-sensitive application (or mini-app), that Adobe has. I have encountered fonts that work fine in PS, AI, InDesign, AE and even older PageMaker, that flat killed Titler. This ARTICLE goes into a bit more detail, and offers a scheme to fix things, in some cases.
    Good luck,

  • Define Custom Shape doesn't work in Photoshop CS5

    It seems to be impossible to Define Custom Shape in Photoshop CS5. This option in Edit menu always remains grayed out...
    Can anyone check and see if this is the case in your own installation of the program?
    Very same procedure works in Photoshop CS4 just fine, but not in CS5...

    Hi Fox,
    I think you might just have found a bug there. I've reported it upstairs.

  • Sending Rich Text Emails - Default Message font doesn't work!

    I have just set up Mail to compose Rich Text emails as default which seems to have worked okay. However, I have set the default Message font as 'Arial' and it doesn't seem to work when sent to Microsoft Outlook. However if I set the text to a different font and then back to arial when composing it works fine.
    I just looked at the raw source of the email and it doesn't actually state in the HTML that the font is set to Arial by default, only when it is manually changes when composing. It may display correctly in Mail but with more users on a windows based machine using outlook this is no good! I don't want to have to change the font manually every time!
    Anyone got a fix for this?

    Are there no fixes for this?
    In my eyes this is a major problem and certainly something that is making me consider moving away from Mail...

  • Jazz.suit font doesn't work in 64 bit mode

    Ever since the new update, and using 64 bit mode, the jazz fonts disappear. Most of the score stays intact (including events which are generated by any other font, such as jazztext, jazztextextended), but anything which uses the Jazz.suit font simply disappears.
    In 32 bit mode, this doesn't occur.
    I tried to replace my Jazz.suit font and it didn't fix it, and this is happening uniformly on 3 computers I use at work with Logic Pro 9.1. Unchecking use external font if available fixes this (basically doesn't use the jazz.suit font) and Sonata and Swing fonts work (the other choices).
    Any ideas?

  • I want to override webpage fonts but tools/options/fonts and colors/advanced/[]Allow pages to choose their own fonts doesn't work (unchecking it)

    tools/options/fonts and colors/colors does work to some extent - it does not overide link colors, but I don't really care about that. ^+ and ^- (ie control plus/minus) do work to change size to some extent - everything bigger/smaller, but of course not everything size=20, eg. I know there must be a way to do this sort of thing because years ago I could do it in Netscape.

    Some extensions that you can look at:
    * Default FullZoom Level - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/6965
    * NoSquint - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/2592

  • Arial Unicode MS font doesn't appear in PhotoShop CS5 for MAC

    Hello,  I'm having a problem with Arial Unicode MS font in MAC. The other apps such as TextEdit, Pixelmator... can see the font but not PhotoShop CS5 and the other apps in the CS5 suite (Flash, Illustrator...)
    Does anyone have the same problem with me? Could you help me to solve this problem?
    Thanks in advance,
    Chinh Do

    Check the entire font menu, all the way to the bottom.  The font may not be in the alphabetical order you expect, but towards the end of the list, among the Asian fonts or so.

    Take a look in the root Library folder (not your home one) and see if you have the ScriptingAdditions folder with the Adobe Units Types file inside. If not that is your problem. You can either reinstall Photoshop, or you can create the ScriptingAdditions folder and download and unzip the file HERE, then put it in the ScriptingAdditions folder. NB: there is NO SPACE in the folder's name.
