Font management with InDesign and Windows 7

Hello
I am presently looking to upgrade to Windows 7 and use InDesign CS4. I have had a play with installing postscript type 1 fonts using the windows font manager and it seems absoloutley average, but it worked (I think). I was wondering if you had any suggestions of what would be best practice in this setup.
Thanks for your time

Thanks for that. I spoke to the team using indesign and they would love to move to Extensis Suitcase but they had experienced problems with MathMagic pro. I am going to test this out and hopefully resolve it but I wondered if you had any knowledge of compatibility issues?
Thanks again

Font issue with InDesign and OS 10.6

I have read quite a bit on this but have found no resolution. We installed OS 10.6 on two of our three G5 Macs at work. We use InDesign CS4 and OS 10.6.5.
When we open an InDesign file that we all share, the machines with 10.6 on it say fonts are missing. (I believe this is a naming convention problem.) I learned that some of the fonts for InDesign should be moved to the InDesign font folder. We did that. That helped on several of the fonts. However, we still have an issue with Helvetica Neue, and Universe (67 or other numbers). I have the same Universe font family listed, but when I go to find 67 or 47, they aren't there.
Anyone else having this problem? Do we need to go in to every document and change the fonts to avoid this error? Is there a better fix?

I have just swapped from an old Mac Mini (using 10.4.11) to the new Mac Mini (using 10.6.6). I did not do any fiddling about fonts. Everything is as it installs. The only thing I did is to resolve duplicate fonts in Font Book.
For convenience, I used Arial for documents. Now when I open an ID document, it says Arial[TT] (as well as bold, italic...) is missing. I checked the Arial ttf group is in /Library/Fonts, but in ID font list, it shows an Open type.
All I want is that the fonts should work, when I open all the InDesign documents (still in CS2 Version) that I created since last five years. I am no techie by any means, what I need is a step-to-step to solve the font issue, so that I can get on work immediately.
Any concrete step-to-step advice is highly appreciated.

Problem with touchpad and Windows 8.1. Acer Aspire E5-511

I bought an Acer Aspire E5-511, but I have problem with touchpad and Windows 8.1.The touchpad (Synaptics) is not working with Windows 8.1 x64, but it works fine with Windows 7 x64 and Windows 8 x64.When I install Windows 8.1 and have to choose” language to install” I can’t choose anything with the touchpad. I should plug in my mouse to continue. I doesn’t work even when it’s fully installed and with latest driver (available only for win 8.1 x64) from Acer’s website. I tried with an older driver, but had no success. I updated BIOS, but it doesn’t work again. In hardware IDS in device manager it shows HID\… not ACPI\… (like win 7/8). Fn+F7 doesn’t help.When I try to install Windows7/8 the touchpad is working properly at the beginning (I can choose ”language to install”, “Time and currency format”… and the touchpad works after install even without driver).

SOLUTION So guys after deep research and troubleshooting I found that you need to keep notice of a few things at time of installation: Installation Mode: UEFI (only)- LEGACY would create touchpad issues. after installation of windows just follow the driver installation hierarchy 1.Intel NB_Chipset_M Baytrail-M 2.Intel I/O Driver then rest of the crap. Note:After doing all this make sure your touchpad is active >> Fn+F7 Just wished if this solution came from an acer executive , the world would have been a better place , but anyways this is what community is for. Enjoy everyone

External Hard Drive Compatible with Mac and Windows?

So my old laptop is a Dell Latitude and I bought a Western Digital external hard drive and put all my files/pics/music on it. The information the WD came with said its compatible with Mac and Windows, but when I plug it into my brand spankin new Macbook, it doesn't register with the computer and won't show up. What's going on?
Message was edited by: philliesphan

I recently ran into that problem. In order to have the hard drive compatible for both PC and Mac it must be in a FAT32 format. In order to do this though all your files will be deleted (in order to reformat). You can do this by plugging in the hard drive into you mac and going under disk utility and there you will find your hard drive and under erase change the format to FAT32 and then you press erase (all will be deleted off the external drive though)

Cannot convert webpages to pdf using Acrobat X Pro with IE9 and Windows 7, worked fine until a few m

Cannot convert webpages to pdf using Acrobat X Pro with IE9 and Windows 7, worked fine until a few months and updates ago

I tried your suggestion, not knowing that the direct pdf printer would also "save as" PDF, but when I try your suggestion and use the Adobe PDF printer that is a direct creation of the PDF from the browser (IE9), instead of the "black out" areas I get when I use the "Convert to" button, I get missing blocks of the resulting PDF, and only get the first 1/4 to 1/3 of the webpage.
Just to clarify, when I said I print the webpage and then scan, that is a work around I have to do if I need a scanned version of the way a webpage appears on a particular date and time, instead of the one step process I used to be able to do when Adobe Acrobat would actually convert the webpage to a pdf without blackout areas or, if I try your suggestion, blank spots with a partial webpage. But the idea was one I had not thought of and I appreciated the thought.
Yes, Acrobat was updated, and is updated, and was working fine until a few months ago, Win 7 and Office 32 bit versions, Office 2010

Project Server 2010 compatibility with IE11 and Windows 8.1

Hi All!
Maybe a silly question since compatibility is always asked about older versions, but here is my question:
Is Project Server 2010 compatible with IE11 and Windows 8.1?
I personnaly tested with IE11 and it seems to be ok. All views and pages can be opened with IE11.
But what about windows 8.1?
Has Microsoft done any communication about this?
Thanks in advance for your helps.
Guillaume.

I am seeing a minor issue with the timesheet grid after users are upgraded from IE8 to IE11.
We are using Project Server 2010 with SP1 and Oct 2013 CU.
When some users (using IE11) switches between filters or views in the Timesheet page, the grid shrinks making to content un readable. The only way to get it back is to refresh the page. After a refresh, the grid returns to normal size, but the pane
divider is too far to the left and always must be dragged to the right in order to see the task names in the left grid.

Any issues with PE7 and Windows 7?

Hi All,
I am considering purchasing a second computer. I have had great success with PE7 and Vista, But I can't get Vista on the new Alienware I want to buy. So, has anyone had any issues with PE7 and Windows 7? I have read many posts where there are issues with PE8 and Windows7.
Thanks, Stan

It's a toshiba laptop.
4 gig DDR3
core duo
320 hard drive - partitioned
I also use a dual screen - 22" lcd monitor
I don't use it a lot, since I have a desktop. I've noticed having a
dedicated video card makes a world of difference in editing. This might be
your problem; a dedicated high end video card is the way to go.
If I do simple compilations I don't have any problems. I usaully am making
a DVD of soccer games. If there is a lot of special effects I'll use my
desktop that has XP.

I have iphone 3gs ios 6.1.3 .. I have a problem I can not look contact profile and save it. I already sync with outlook and windows books also can not be seen. I tried to add a contact on the contact menu, but the result like restart ... (but not restart the device, not just stored). I am confused about this issue ... please help ..
thank you in advance.

Your suggestion worked perfectly. I can't believe there is nothing in any of the instructions I have seen online at the Yahoo and Apple help sites about the making sure the right default account is checked. I don't think I was even aware there was a "default account" setting. Thank you so much.

Does Creative Cloud work with InDesign and linked files?

Does Creative Cloud work with InDesign and linked files?

This will work for online storage.
The preview you will see on the website but will be what you see on your desktop if the the folder was missing. If you want someone else to be able to see a preview online to give comment feedback you could export out a PDF file of the work-in-progress and upload it.
If you just want to work on the project at different locations it might be easier to zip up everything into a single file and upload it. Then download it onto the computer where you want to work and unzip it.

Managing fonts in Adobe CS6 and Windows 7

Previously I had students add their fonts to C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Fonts. This worked well. I gave them write access to this folder and they would drag their fonts into this folder and they would be available to all products from the Creative Suite. This was when our school was on CS5.5 and Windows XP.
Over the weekend we reimaged the machines to have Windows 7 (64-bit) and CS6. Students can no longer add fonts to Adobe, as I am unsure of where the fonts folder is. They also cannot add fonts system wide, as they are not given admin access to these folders (which makes sense). I have tried to add fonts to the folder found at "C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Fonts" but this does not make the font available to Adobe CS6 applications.
Is there a way to have fonts added to Adobe? I know that there are manny different applications that can manage fonts; can the Adobe forum users recommend one? I don't want students to be able to affect system wide fonts. I have dealt with the repercussions of giving students access to the Windows fonts folder.
Help in this would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Blake

I have been hodling off upgrading to CS4 for a year now, since Adobe has not make any statements about Windows 7 support. If adobe has release some statements, can someone point me to the statement?
http://www.adobe.com/products/creativesuite/faq/ See "Support for Windows 7"
What is the possible release schedule for CS5, I am thinking May 2010?
That's as good as anyone else's guess.
CS: Sep 2003
CS2: April 2005 (19 months)
CS3: April 2007 (24 months)
CS4: Oct 2008 (19 months)
CS5: May 2010 would be 19 months - but only Adobe knows the real date.

Font Management problem InDesign CC

My InDesign CC crashed. When I try to reopen it I get this message:
Adobe InDesign does not recognize Font Manager.InDesignPlugin as a valid plug-in. Please reinstall the Font Manager.InDesignPlugin plug-in and restart InDesign.
Do I need to get a new Font Manager. I have been using Font Agent Pro and it worked for a couple of weeks fine with the Cloud Creative suite...but now it won't.
Any suggestions?

Thanks! I reinstalled InDesignCC and when I was doing that I got a notice that Adobe was having some problem on their end and to come back later. I think some of this was a problem on their end. I followed some else's advice to deactivate something in the Utilities which I did. Anyway, it is working now but I have to reinstall InDesignCC again because when I did it was a trial version. I am a subscriber and need the permanent version.
Thanks for your help.

Font issues with ATM and new O/S install

I have had to reformat my h/d and now have issues with fonts. I see that I have several different versions of Minion and Myriad installed on my PC, when viewing through both the windows font manager and ATM, yet these same versions are not availble to me when I am in Pagemaker or Word. I suspect it has to do with Multiple Masters but I am unsure how to fix the problem. Any ideas?

Multiple master fonts can still be happily used with XP, but Vista doesn't support them or ATM (which is needed to use them). (There is apparently a workround to install MM fonts on Vista, but I haven't read much about it.)
Anyway, have you installed the multiple master fonts? You've listed the OpenType versions but don't say if you've installed the MM versions. If you haven't, you'll get substitution in files originally created with those fonts. If you have, you still may not have created the specific custom instances used in the files, in which case you'll have to use ATM to create those instances.

Flash Player Does Not Work with IE8 and Windows XP

I am using Windows XP VR 5.1 with SP3. Flash Player does not function? So videos will not play that use Flash Player. The Adobe Support Site has been 000 Help because it is a free product. Microsoft says it is an Adobe problem. Finger pointing to the nth degree. I have loaded the latest version of Javascript and Flash Palyer.. Any ideas?

Resetting IE is a shotgun approach, but may be much easier (and faster) for a user than trying to troubleshoot and find exactly which add-on, control, setting is causing issues. For a fast approach, you can reset IE, then start re-installing the add-ons you wish to use. Here is a kb that describes the process and even provides a Fix it: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/923737
If you’d like to troubleshoot, here are some steps that will fix most issues with Internet Explorer and Add-ons. This can be more of a scalpel approach, and could help you save your cookies, stored passwords, etc.
1)      Update your Windows software
a.       Follow the steps below to view updates that are available for your computer.
                                                   i.      Click to go online to the Windows Update website
1.       Note: If Microsoft Update is not installed, you will be taken to the Windows Update website. See the note below if Microsoft Update is not installed.
                                                 ii.      Click Custom to check for available updates. In the left pane, under Select by Type, click each of the following links to view all available updates:

2)      Turn off Internet Explorer add-ons you don't recognize
a.       When you visit a website, an add-on might be downloaded without your knowledge, or you might be prompted to download an add-on. These add-ons might cause Internet Explorer to run slowly or become unresponsive. You should remove all Internet Explorer add-ons you don't recognize or trust.
b.      How do I spot malicious add-ons?
                                                   i.      You can usually spot malicious add-ons under the Name column in the Manage Add-ons dialog box. Malicious add-ons might have:
1.       Blank names.
2.       Names that include random characters or have a sequence of numbers and letters (for example, fhriduvh.dll or f6rid8vh.exeas as opposed to Windows Messenger).
3.       A publisher name you might not recognize.
c.       How do I disable an add-on?
                                                   i.      Open Internet Explorer.
                                                 ii.      Depending on your version of Internet Explorer, do one of the following:

2.       In Internet Explorer 7, click the Tools menu, point to Manage Add-ons, and then click Enable or Disable Add-ons.
3.       In Internet Explorer 8, click the Tools menu, click Manage Add-ons, and then click Toolbars and Extension (if necessary). Also note the drop down list labeled “Show:” You are interested in Add-ons and Downloaded
4.       Follow these steps to determine the version of Internet Explorer you're using:
a.       Open Internet Explorer.
b.      Press ALT+H, and then click About Internet Explorer.
c.       How can I find which version of Internet Explorer I'm using if it won't launch?
                                                                                                                            i.      If you're unable to launch Internet Explorer you can use the following steps to determine the version you're using:
1.       Click Start, click Run, type %ProgramFiles%\Internet Explorer, and then click OK.
2.       Right-click iexplore, click Properties, and then click Version.
3.       Under Item name, click File Version. The version number appears under Value to the right of File Version.
a.       Note:If the file version number begins with 6, you have Internet Explorer 6. If the file version number begins with 7, you have Internet Explorer 7. If the file version number begins with 8, you have Internet Explorer 8.
d.      If you aren't using the latest version of Internet Explorer, consider updating.
                                                                                                                            i.      How do I update to the latest version of Internet Explorer?
1.       Click to download and install the latest version of Internet Explorer
                                                                                                                          ii.      How can I update Internet Explorer without launching my web browser?
1.       Click to go online to the Windows Update website.
2.       Click Custom to check for available updates.
3.       In the left pane, under Select by Type, click Software, Optional.
4.       Select the Internet Explorer update, and then click Review and install updates.
                                                iii.      Click the name of the add-on.
1.       Click Disable. You might have to restart Internet Explorer for the changes to take effect.
2.       Why do some add-ons include (Not verified) in the Publisher column?
a.       If (Not verified) is displayed in the Publisher column in the Manage Add-ons dialog box, the add-on itself is not digitally signed even though the program that installed it might be. A digital signature verifies that a file comes from the person or publisher it claims to be from, and that no one has tampered with it since it was digitally signed.
3.       How do I disable an add-on if I can't access Internet Explorer?
a.       Click Start, and then click Control Panel.
b.      Double-click Internet Options.
c.       Click the Programs tab, and then click Manage Add-ons.
d.      Click the name of the add-on you want to disable, and then select Disable.
e.      When the Add-on Status dialog box appears, click OK to close it.
3)      Perform a free Full Service Scan using Windows Live OneCare safety scanner (not necessary if you don’t suspect viruses and are confident in the protection you have on your machine).
a.       Go to the following website, and then click Full Service Scan: Windows Live OneCare safety scanner
                                                   i.      http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=56726
If you are still experiencing issues, perform these steps. If the issue subsides, you may discontinue the remainder of the steps
1)      Disable all add-ons (one at a time) until you can no longer reproduce the problem
a.       Close all Internet Explorer windows.
b.      Click Start, and then click Control Panel.
c.       Click Network and Internet Connections, and then click Internet Options.
d.      Click the Programs tab, and then click Manage Add-ons.
e.      Click the name of the add-on you want to turn off, and then, under Settings, click Disable.
f.        Click OK.
g.       Restart Internet Explorer. Continue using Internet Explorer the same way you did when you received a crash report. If Internet Explorer continues to crash after disabling this add-on, continue with the next step.
h.      Repeat steps b through g for each add-on listed. When you can no longer reproduce the problem, the most recently disabled add-on is the cause of the problem. Once you discover the add-on that is causing the issues, you can uninstall it (use Manufacturer’s uninstaller if one is provided) then if you wish to continue to use the add-on, install the latest version from the manufacturer’s site.
