Font Folio on InDesign

I have had Adobe CS6 for 2 years now. I use indd. pretty rugularly, so I just downloaded Font Folio 11.1 to have a better array of fonts. Is it at all possible to load the fonts from Font Folio directly to indd? If so, what is the most correct and best way to do so? Thanks.

You can either install the font folio which would load the fonts in the system hence making it accessible to all applications including InDesign. Or In case you wish to just have it available to InDesign then there is a way, you can locate the "fonts" folder InDesign installation directory, i.e. on windows it should be under C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe InDesign CS6 or C:\Program Files \Adobe\Adobe InDesign CS6 depending weather your system is 64 bit or 32 bit. On Mac it should be under Applications/InDesign/Fonts
Any font placed in the above directory will only be available to InDesign, Specifically to the version of InDesign that you copied the fonts over too.
Hope this helps!!

Using Font Folio in InDesign to export in PDF to app store

Our customer is creating applications using In Design. These applications are exported into PDF format for viewing on mobile devices. Is there any additional licensing needed from Adobe in this scenario?
Also, in the future (not now) if the customer would like to look into perhaps fonts to be embedded in a app the customer is creating, what licensing would be needed?
Thanks in advance!

For export of PDF from InDesign (or saving PDF from Illustrator or Photoshop), no additional license is required for embedding fonts sourced from Adobe (including all the fonts in the Font Folio and any bundled with Adobe applications).
This is not true for use in applications where text is being generated on-the-fly and/or can be entered by the user. Others will comment on those licensing requirements.

Font Folio OpenType Edition

Press Release Source: Adobe Systems Incorporated
Adobe Announces OpenType Edition of Font Folio
Monday August 11, 8:12 am ET
New Version Offers the Adobe Type Library in Enhanced Cross-Platform Font Format
SAN JOSE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 11, 2003--Adobe Systems Incorporated (Nasdaq:ADBE - News), the leader in network publishing, today introduced a new version of Adobe® Font Folio(TM) featuring the Adobe Type Library in OpenType® format on one CD-ROM. The Adobe Font Folio (OpenType Edition) product contains more than 2,000 fonts in OpenType format, which allows for richer linguistic support and more advanced typographic control in any print, Web or dynamic media project. Adobe also announced the availability of a new special version with a 10-computer license, making it more affordable for small design shops to access the entire Adobe Type Library.
Adobe and Microsoft Corporation created the OpenType font format to improve cross-platform document portability and simplify font management, by introducing one font file that works on both the Macintosh and Windows platforms. Creative professionals benefit from extended foreign language support and the inclusion of expert typographic glyphs, such as small caps, old style figures and swashes, in many OpenType fonts.
"The OpenType font format is much more convenient than the old Type 1 or TrueType fonts," said David Blatner, co-author of Real World InDesign, InDesign for QuarkXPress Users and Real World Photoshop. "With Adobe's new Font Folio in OpenType format, I love having large character sets in the same font instead of having to work with a whole array of related font files."
Pricing and Availability
The Adobe Font Folio [OpenType Edition] product is available immediately and will be sold primarily through the Adobe store at www.adobe.com, Adobe retail and licensing channels, and includes a standard 20-computer license for US$8,999. License extensions are also available and Font Folio is included in Adobe's transactional and contractual licensing programs. Upgrade pricing from Font Folio versions 8 or 9 to Font Folio OpenType Edition is US$2,499.

> "Adobe's applications DO allow selection of the individually styled fonts." Or something like that.
No, they don't. At least not as I understand the term. When Mac users talk about not being able to see fonts in Windows, they mean they can't see each and every variant in the font menu as a separate entry. So, Times Bold sits alongside Times Itals and Times Bold Itals in the font menu, and you can get from TNR Bold to Minion Pro Itals with one mouse click. In Adobe apps, you can't do this and you don't see all the variants in the one menu - you have a font family menu and a variant (or style) menu. You have to choose the font family first, then the variant, and you can't get from TNR Bold to Minion Pro Itals with one mouse click.
Although Adobe apps do style-link all font variants (a great advantage over Windows default limit of four family members), you are still choosing the family, then the style. In this, it's no different from choosing bold, itals, and bold itals in other Windows apps like Word, Ventura, FrameMaker, etc (and my post was referring only to these three variants, not to styles like black, condensed, etc, which may show up as separate entries). So, I stick by my statement that "bold, italic, and bold italic variations don't show up as separate fonts in menus in Windows apps".
(And Dov's right, we don't know this is the user's problem, but I was just raising a common issue, based on the limited info we had at hand.)

Adobe font folio 10

Hi Everyone,
Anyone have list of Adobe font folio 10 fonts?
I have searched all over but not found.
It would be great if anyone give me the list of Font folio 10.
Thanks,
Shonky

Thanks, Thomas.
All involved are on Macs. We are contracted to edit and then PDF the
InDesign files--we're a design and production house, rather than a
printer--so unfortunately we can't just get PDFs from them.
We are going to try running all PDFs on their end, and see if the
problem runs both ways--that is, see if they have similar problems
PDFing files with the newer font, as we have had PDFing files with
the older font.
I will let you know how it goes. It's still quite a mystery. I'm
asking them to double-check that they aren't accidentally running Type
1 instead of OTF on their end.
Thanks again,
David

What's new in Font Folio 11.1?

Looks like Font Folio 11.1 released today, per http://adobe.com/products/fontfolio.
Can anyone tell us what is new in the past 5 years? I had hoped for some better glyph coverage in fonts like Utopia, but I don't see any evidence of that in the documentation, but I'm still hopeful?
The list of 80 additional fonts does not seem all that exciting for Western users, but perhaps much more so for users of other Arabic, Hebrew, Devanagari, etc.
Comparing the PDF font listings, here's what the new faces are:

I suppose one answer is just "upgrade and find out." Looking at the case of Utopia, can I assume that the latest version from UtopiaStdReadMe.html is available? For instance, it reads:

version 2.076 created 2009/11/23
     Corrected font menu names in name table for Mac platform names. Name
     ID's 1,2 16 and 17 are now written following the same rules as the
     Windows platform names. Previous releases put the Preferred Name
     and Style in Mac platform name ID 1 and 2, and did not write name ID
     16 and 17, for legacy issues with old Mac OS versions.
version 2.066 created 2009/08/11
     Added Windows platform name ID 8- Manufacturer.
version 2.050 created 2007/08/16
     Release for FontFolio 11... [actually a lot of bullets here!]
So can I assume FF11.1 will have Utopia 2.097? I can't really see anything in the above that looks like a user-visible change of significance...
On the other hand, FF11.1 upgrades seem to be extremely reasonably priced. List price of the upgrade is $29.95/seat (20-pack), so really that's chump-change. So I suppose I can't really go wrong. But it's hard to get excited about, especially when I already have Adobe Text and Hypatia Pro from giveaway incentives (though I guess having them in FF clarifies some potentially thorny licensing questions...)
Thanks!

Err, so I thought this would be an easy question...not so?

Start by rebooting the computer. If that doesn't work, search for adobefnt*.lst and delete all instances where * becomes a 2-digit number.

Fonts missing in InDesign when they really aren't

I am using Adobe InDesign CS3 on the Windows platform, Windows XP Professional, Version 2002, Service Pack 2.
When I open certain documents in InDesign, I receive the "missing fonts" message, with certain fonts highlighted. However, when I investigated further to see what the replacement font was(by going into the text box), the missing font was definitely listed in InDesign.
Missing fonts include Helvetica Neue LT Std 57 Condensed, and Helvetica Neue LT Std 37 Thin Condensed.

Hey! The fonts were installed via the fonts control panel. I actually don't have admin access at my work computer and have to get the I.T. guy to install the fonts for me (VERY irritating). (Another gripe is that he hasn't been able to figure out a way to give me permissions on Vista's font panel since it doesn't seem to work the same as a regular folder.)
Some of the fonts that don't work are Type 1 and some are TrueType, but most are the former (I think most all the fonts on my old system were Type 1). I think in some cases there are newer Open Type fonts on the computers that conflict with them somehow or something (?). I don't know. It's very annoying. I suspect if I slaughter all the fonts on the system and just install the old ones things will be okay. I'm hesitant to do that though as there are lots of new fonts I wouldn't mind checking out.
I blamed Vista because I've had no font problems moving from one XP machine to another regardless of what fonts were already on its system. But now that I've moved up to the new platform many of the fonts just aren't recognized. In one case I found that -- although I couldn't install the fonts from an InDesign package font folder -- they worked when I installed them from the original CD. That didn't make much sense as the files should have been the same.
But anyway, it's annoying. Most of my previous work can't be opened with the correct fonts any more. Blah.

Weird font behaviour in InDesign

Can anyone explain what's happening here?
I've loaded an OT version of Zapf Dingbats into Fusion on my Mac Pro and it seems just fine. Font Doctor says its OK. Suitcase Fusion says its OK. The font characters display correctly in Fusion.
I can use both the TT and OT versions of the font in Mail and Word. Both versions print OK, too.
But when I apply the OT font in Adobe InDesign or Illustrator, all I get to see is boxes with a cross through them and that "missing font" pinkish hue.
No other OT fonts pose this problem. And deleting the TrueType font of Zapf Dingbats makes no difference so it's not a duplicates problem.
Thanks for any suggestions or solutions to this annoying issue.

Dang! It was so obvious. The OT version has the symbols in the correct place in the glyph palette. The letters and numbers that I used to type to get the bullets and scissors are empty characters in OT. Thanks to Carl over at Extensis for enlightening me. Boy was I being dim. I need to use the glyph palette instead of the old keyboard memories.

Weird OT font behaviour in InDesign and Illustrator

Hi font experts.
I've been directed here by someone at the InDesign forum, who thought you might be able to help.
Can anyone explain what's happening here?

No other OT fonts pose this problem. And deleting the TrueType font of Zapf Dingbats makes no difference so it's not a duplicates problem.
As a result of the above I've temporarily ditched Fusion today to try out FontExplorer (which I like). Comparing the two fonts in there, I can see that there are lots of "missing" characters in the OT version if I select "Show missing characters", but none in the TT version. Not sure if that's relevant.
Also, each character in the OT version has a lot more information, including Character Code, Unicode, Glyph ID, HTML and Keystroke, whereas the TT version simply has the Glyph ID. Don't know if that's relevant either. Incidentally, the keystroke doesn't work in InDesign or Illustrator.
Thanks for any suggestions or solutions to this annoying issue. It seems very weird but maybe there's a simple explanation. Cheers.

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?
