Font Dramas

Hi,
I've just brought a mac pro and it has 10.5.6 installed. As a graphic designer who has urgent client work to do I'm have major dramas! The fonts that I've been using happily for years won't work on this system for example Helvetica Neue and Eurostile are 2 that I need assess to ASAP. They are postscript versions and won't load. Is there a way to make them work?
Thanks in advance

Hi Josh,
Were you able to solve your issue with the fonts? I'm having the same issue but only when I go to publish the epub on Kindle Direct Publishing. When I view it through their previewer none of the fonts display. It seems like they display the default Kindle fonts. If you found a solution, please share
Thanks,

Lion, Font Book & Adobe Font Folio

Howdy All,
I have a brand new Mac mini with Lion installed (of course) and I'm having a bear of a time loading the Adobe Font Folio. In general, I'm having a really hard time with Font Book on other Lion, late vintage, machines. I've tried every counter measure in my bag of tricks: boot in safe mode, Onyx cleaning, new user accounts, deleting plists, etc. At first I ignored the Font Book warnings, then I've heeded every one and not loaded the fonts. On my latest attempt, with a new user account account I have 444 fonts loaded, with the vast majority turned off, but Font Book hangs. I suppose I can always flatten the machine and start from scratch, but I'm just wondering if someone has an insight into the Lion/Font Book situation that I don't have. For the record, I have about 600 fonts running on about 30 Snow Leopard machines without any drama.
Thanks in advance for ideas.

Same here. My thread: https://discussions.apple.com/message/15995212#15995212
I've had no replies. Have you looked at Activity Monitor while this is happening? check it out. I think i'm just going to go back to Leopard, don't know what else to do. Do you have an SSD in there?

Upgrade Dramas 3.4.5 - NIK Plugins

Hi,
Had the usual upgrade to Aperture 3.4.5 dramas and sorted it out with a reinstall and some swearing. Then my NIK plugins got knocked out. NIK were kind enough to link me to the full new suite. Guess what? They all crash. BOOOO!!!
Still waiting on word from them, anyone with similar dramas?
I'm more of a hobbyist so I'm not sitting on dealine jobs, but still quite frustrated.
Thanks

Re: Nik Software
Dec 22, 2012 1:58 PM (in response to Pabli)
Thanks Pabli, I too contacted Nik and they sent me the following instructions, which failed to work
Maybe you will have better luck.
Thank you for contacting Nik Software. HDR Efex Pro 2 and Color Efex Pro 4 take advantage of the Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) of the computer system. The GPU is also sometimes referred to as the Display Adapter or Video Card, in any case they are all the same. Sometimes certain video cards will not handle this additional processing.
In order to resolve this, the first measure would be to update the Display Adapters or GPU driver. Generally the video card that comes with your Mac will be updated automatically. The exception may be when there has been an additional video card added. In that case the user may need to go to the video card manufacturer's website to download an updated driver for their secondary GPU. If you are using Mac OS Snow Leopard (10.6) ensure to update to 10.6.6 or higher as this can affect performance. If this does not apply to you, please go to the next section below.
If after following the above steps you are still experiencing the same issue, the next step will be to either disable the GPU (if possible) or force the plug-ins to not use the GPU (safe-mode). In order to disable the GPU in the plug-ins, please do the following in each one:
If you are able to open the program and can see part of the interface, see if you can click on the"Settings" button in the lower left.
In Settings locate the section "GPU" and expand it, in this section you will see a check box "Enable GPU Processing", uncheck this so the GPU will be disabled, then close the settings window.
Close out of the program (click Cancel), quit out of any and all host applications (Photoshop, Lightroom, Aperture), and then relaunch HDR Efex Pro 2 or Color Efex Pro 4 to see if this corrects this issue.
If you are unable to disable the GPU via Settings or if the issue has not been resolved (e.g. HDR Efex Pro 2 or Color Efex Pro 4 crashes or the buttons are not displaying correctly), please try the following steps below after quitting out of all host applications (Photoshop, Lightroom, Aperture):
Open a finder window (or double click on the Macintosh HD on the desktop) and navigate to:
Macintosh HD : Users : <user name> : Library :Preferences : Nik Software : HDR Efex Pro 2
Locate the file, HDREfexPro2.cfg and right-click and choose "open with..." and then click "Choose" and then locate the applications, "TextEdit" to open this file.
At the very beginning (before all the text) of the configuration file, paste the following code below verbatim:
<configuration>
<group name="INTERN">
<key name="UseSafeMode" type="bool" value="1"/>
</group>
</configuration>
Now save the file, close it and relaunch HDR Efex Pro 2 and see if the issue has been resolved.
Then, for Color Efex Pro 4:
Open a finder window (or double click on the Macintosh HD on the desktop) and navigate to:
Macintosh HD : Users : <user name> : Library :Preferences : Nik Software : Color Efex Pro 4
Locate the file, ColorEfexPro4.cfg and right-click and choose "open with..." and then click "Choose" and then locate the applications, "Text Edit" to open this file.
At the very beginning (before all the text) of the configuration file, paste the following code below verbatim:
<configuration>
<group name="INTERN">
<key name="UseSafeMode" type="bool" value="1"/>
</group>
</configuration>
Now save the file, close it and relaunch Color Efex Pro 4 and see if the issue has been resolved.

From Google
Navigate to your Applications folder and open your Font Book as seen below.
2. Scroll up to the Arial fonts (A), select the drop down triangle to view it's contents (B).
3.Select any duplicates, hold your mouse over them to check their path(C).
4.Any fonts located in the "Path: Library/Fonts/'name of arial font" should be kept (such as the example above).
5.Duplicate fonts in any other location, such as the example below, should be removed by right-clicking (or control-clicking) and selecting "Remove 'Font Name'".
Examples of incorrect locations that should be removed are:
-Path: Users/ 'username'/Library /Fonts
-Path: Library/Fonts/Microsoft
6. Please repeat this process for all 'Arial' font duplicates, such as Arial Black, Arial Hebrew, etc.
7.Once all duplicate Arial fonts have been removed, please quit font book and restart your system.
If the crashing continues, then please let me know which of the plug-ins cause Aperture to crash. Is it all six, or is it just a few of them? This information will be helpful to continue troubleshooting.

How do I use Edge Web Fonts with Muse?

How do I use Edge Web Fonts with Muse - is it an update to load, a stand alone, how does it interface with Muse? I've updated to CC but have no info on this.

Hello,
Is there a reason why you want to use Edge Web Fonts with Adobe Muse?
Assuming you wish to improve typography of your web pages, you should know that Muse is fully integrated with Typekit. This allows you to access and apply over 500 web fonts from within Muse. Here's how you do it:
Select a text component within Muse, and click the Text drop-down.
Select Add Web Fonts option, to pop-open the Add Web Fonts dialog.
Browse and apply fonts per your design needs.
Muse also allows you to create paragraph styles that you can save and apply to chunks of text, a la InDesign. Watch this video for more information: http://tv.adobe.com/watch/muse-feature-tour/using-typekit-with-adobe-muse/
Also take a look at these help files to see if they help you:

How do you invoke Edge Web Fonts?

Assuming this is available in this release, how to you bring up the Edge Web Fonts capability?

Hi Phil,
You should be able to trigger the code hints manually anywhere in the font-family value by pressing Ctrl+Space. It should also pop up automatically if you type "," followed by a space anywhere in the value. Are those approaches not working for your code? (If so, please post a snippet of your CSS here so we can investigate).

How do I use the Japanese fonts in Font Book in a Pages document?

How does one use the Japanese fonts in Font Book in a Pages document. Pages has its own fonts but I cannot get the Japanese fonts into it.

To type japanese on a computer you change the keyboard, not the font. Go to system prefs/keyboard/input sources and add Japanese/Kotoeri to the list, then select Hiragana in the "flag" menu at the top right of the screen, then type. The font will take care of itself.

How do you use edge web font in Edge Reflow?

By default, I don't have a lot of fonts. It's just viewing a few of them.
How can you get the web font for Edge Reflow? Can you use font from fontbook?
Is there a way to download Edge Web Font?

Above: using Brandon Grotesque (web use font) does not display the correct font.
I'm using Typekit and have an internet connection. If I switch to a "desktop use" font, it shows up, so I'm guessing the "web use" only fonts won't show in Reflow. A little frustrating when you're trying to get an accurate preview/determine best font styling because of the back-and-forth workflow.
Above: using Source Sans Pro (desktop use font) does display the correct font.

How do I include 'Edge Web Fonts' into Edge Animate?

How do I include 'Edge Web Fonts' (not Google Web Fonts) into Edge Animate?

Have you tried to use google fonts? I have used them and they work for me.
When you add your font for example:
Copy paste:
<link href='http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Finger+Paint' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'>
and then for font family.
'Finger Paint', cursive;
then select addfont on the addfont screen

My Excel with PowerPivots acts weird, it hangs when i try to change font color

Hi
I am facing a weird issue using PowerPivot in my workbook, there is a worksheet named Charts in my workbook and all the charts i am using resides in that worksheet. Whenever i try to change the font color in that sheet, my excel's color palette goes blur
and then everything just freezes and turns black. This problem is happening only with Charts worksheet, when i try to change the color in other sheets, it works just, the problem is only with Charts sheet. File
size is 16 MB, there are just 10 pivot tables with some calculations and some calculated fields. There are no add-ins other than PowerPivot.
Thanks,

Hi,
In regarding of the issue, please provide us more information to assist you better.
Do you receive any error message?
Which Excel version are you using? Excel 2013 or other?
Which workbook format are you using? XLS or XLSX?
Are you performing any specific task?
According to your description, this issue seems only occur with the special worksheet "Charts".
Firstly, I recommend we copy all of the content to a new/blank Excel file to test.
If it works fine, this issue might be caused by the "Charts" workbook itself. We'd better check the "Charts" workbook. Or re-build the file with a new workbook.
If it still makes Excel hang with a new file, this issue might due to the content. Please check the content first.
Secondly, we could follow below KB to troubleshoot this issue:
https://support2.microsoft.com/kb/2758592/en-us?wa=wsignin1.0
Thirdly, if the issue still exists, we may try to collect the Event log and App crash dump file to do advanced troubleshooting.
Event log:
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Open-Event-Viewer
App crash dump file:
First enable app crash dump collection by copying following words into notepad, saving it as dump.reg and importing
it:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Windows Error Reporting\localdumps\EXCEL.EXE]

"DumpCount"=dword:00000010
"DumpType"=dword:00000001

Problem with duplicate and/or outlined fonts in Macintosh

If you are using Frame for Macintosh and you find you have duplicate Arial and/or Times New Roman fonts, or, if these fonts show up on the screen as outlines, the problem may be that you have the 2.9x versions of these fonts, the latest as of this writing (31 August).
You can find older 2.60 versions on the Apple OS 9.2 Install CD, deep in a Microsoft Internet Explore install folder (a Sherlock search will find them).
DEAD LINK, LEFT HERE FOR HISTORICAL PURPOSES: In case you're interested, you can find the 2.9x versions at http://www.microsoft.com/mac/download/office2001/fontsupdate.asp. The page says "New Apple Macintosh versions of Times New Roman (2.91) and Arial (2.90) This update includes a fix for a problem that prevented certain characters from being printed on PostScript level 3 printers", so I'm hesitant to say that you should not use these newer fonts at all.
