Activated fonts not appearing in Illustrator?

I'm running Illustrator CS on a Dual PPC G5 running OS 10.3.9. I have an OpenType font active (using Linotype FontExplorer to manage fonts) and can use the font in all programs except the Adobe ones (Illustrator and Photoshop). Why would the font not appear there? I need it for a logo that I have to manipulate into a vector graphic, but I can't do anything if it won't appear in the type menu. Any ideas as to what's going on and how I can fix this?

Christine,
Did you by any chance create the fonts yourself? OpenType fonts shouldn't cause any more trouble than Type 1 if they are correctly made and named.
If their names show up incorrectly or if they don't show up at all, it's probably because someone did something wrong in Font Info when he was making the font. If you make use of the Build Names thingummy in FontLab Studio it can save you a lot of this kind of trouble. I have done quite a bit of this kind of work - adding Icelandic characters to fonts and that sort of thing - and find that it's absolutely essential to do things right if you want to avoid problems in FontExplorer.
It can sometimes happen too that fonts are made specifically for Windows, in which case they may need to be edited and re-saved for Mac before you can use them so that they work perfectly. You can often get a Windows font to work well on a Mac but you should keep your eyes open for glitches all the same.
And another thing, you may occasionally need to restart Illy when you've made changes to fonts in FontExplorer. This doesn't happen often these days but still crops up occasionally all the same.

The graphic HTML signature panel does not appear in my Mac mail

The graphic HTML signature panel does not appear in my Mac mail. I have inserted the signature after reading on the forum. But the images do not download - the rest of the text in the signature is in place - just the logo and the baseline which is a graphic file does not download. Please help.

Hi, are the pics at a remote location, or on your Mac?
Have you tried drag & dropping the graphics on the signature window?

I have 3 iTunes courses that i downloaded using my iPad. After syncing my iPad with iTunes on my mac, these 3 courses do not appear on my mac iTunes library yet they are still on my iPad.

I have 3 iTunes courses that i downloaded using my iPad. After syncing my iPad with iTunes on my mac, these 3 courses do not appear on my mac iTunes library yet they are still on my iPad.
I have 2 other courses that I downloaded frim my iPad and these appeared on my iTunes (mac) library.
Any idea why the other 3 that i downloaded were not synced in iTunes?

You and the iPad can function with the Remote App from across the room, or in another room.
However, your stereo system has to have a way to communicate or connect with the computer. Unless it has some kind of wifi connector or has Bluetooth, I don't see how you can do this.
There is no app or software to resolve this. You need a way for the stereo to connect.

Some fonts not showing up on Mac

I produced an e-book on typography for maps. It was produced on a PC and converted to pdf using the PowerPoint 2007 Save As PDF option. My customers who are on PCs have not had any trouble viewing all the fonts shown in the e-book exactly as they should be. However, two of my Mac customers (perhaps more, I do not know) are having black boxes show up where the letters should be. This only happens for certain fonts. For example, AUdimat (OpenType) is not showing up but Gentium Plus (OpenType) is. The fonts are embedded in the file. Any ideas? Thank you so much for any help you can provide.
It may even be that the fonts are showing up in regular mode (the customers have Acrobat Pro, I believe) but not when it prints or is in Preview or QuickLook. It is a mystery to me.

I originally thought it was a Mac versus PC issue but now (re: previous comment) it looks to be that the Save as PDF option did not save all the fonts. Some of the fonts saved were OpenType some of the fonts not saved were OpenType. So it doesn't appear to be an OpenType issue. If I were to purchase Acrobat Standard or Pro would I be able to embed all the fonts? Maybe it is because I am using PowerPoint 2007's Save as PDF that is the problem but I am just not sure. I tried signing up for Adobe CreatePDF but then found out that my file size is too big for that program (it's 12 mb whereas the file size limit for Create PDF is 10 mb). Thanks again for reading...

Some device fonts not appearing under 11.0.1.152

Mac OSX 10.7.1 (Lion)
Safari 5.1
Firefox 6.0.2
I have several swfs published for FP 10 & 10.1 which have been working fine under FP 10.3.182.10 in both Safari and Firefox.
The swfs have code that displays a device font ("_sans") for certain languages, such as Greek, Russian etc. After upgrading to 11.0.1.152 some of the device font text is not appearing. I say some as it stills appears correctly in some places but not everywhere.
I have re-installed 10.3.182.10 and it works perfectly again in both browsers.
In case this problem was related just to the browser plug in I also installed the standalone player for 11.0.1.152 (Flash Player Debugger) and ran the swf from my desktop by double clicking it. Once again the fonts stopped displaying correctly.
If I run Test Movie from within Flash Professional, the text appears correctly as I have installed 10.3.182.10 as the version under "Players" in the Flash Professional installation folder.
Can anybody shed any light on what is going on here?

I think I have been able to replicate the issue.
My swf has some dynamic text under a mask which by default is set to display as Arial. By changing a Boolean variable to true, I set the text field to use a new TextFormat which has a font property "_sans".
Here is the complete code:
import flash.text.TextFormat;
var useDeviceFont:Boolean = true;
if (useDeviceFont) {
          var format:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
          format.font = "_sans";
          myClip_mc.myText_txt.embedFonts = false;
          myClip_mc.myText_txt.defaultTextFormat = format;
myClip_mc.myText_txt.text = "Hellobvxcxcvbnrsdjytfkugilhdjgsfhjkl";
The result is that with FP 10.3.182.10 installed I can see the text. but with 11.0.1.152 the text does not appear. Here are two screen shots:
My system is Mac OS X 10.7.2
Safari 5.1.1

I can also see the same issue when viewing the swf in the standalone versions of the player.

Font not appearing in illustrator

HAPPY NEW YEAR to everyone! I have downloaded the free font Baveuse and installed it in my Font Book .. using a Mac, 10.8.2. Font appears in photoshop but not illustrator. I have validated the font, shut down illustrator, shut down the computer but the font remains not available within illustrator. I also have Baveuse 3d in my font library and both the 3d and normal baveuse show in Ps cs6 .. weird!
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

In reading the forum, the only two suggestions I have read for when Illy doesn't see fonts is to either delete the font cache(s) and or delete the preferences.
Both those suggestions are in the following thread. It should move to post #14 by Wade which concerns the prefs, then the following post #15 by Nini on the font cache issue.
I have zero idea if either works as I have not ever needed to do either.

Fonts not appearing in CC, but are shown in CS5.5

I'm having an issue where fonts are not appearing in CC, when they are active in CS5.5. There's even fonts which do show up in CC but not all the weights.
For example: ITC Lubalin Graph. It has several weights. All appear in CS5.5 but only 'book' in CC. so that can't be a format issue can it? (TT vs PS or OT)
It's making the transition to CC frustrating and I'm spending more time working in CS5.5 than I should, as the fonts work there fine.

Don't seem to be any takers, so I'll ask the next obvious question... can these fonts be seen and used in other Mac, NON ADOBE apps like Word (or anything else which allows you to pick fonts on screen)?

Fonts not appearing in Classic

When I open up a program in Classic, only a few fonts appear. I have my fonts in the fonts folder in System 9. Help!

Hi, Dauphin Lady -
Welcome to Apple's Discussions.
As you seem to be aware, only fonts that are in the OS 9 Fonts folder will be available to OS 9 or Classic apps.
In addition -
• those fonts can not be in folders. All font suitcases and any separate printer (Postscript) font files must be loose in the Fonts folder.
• the fonts must be of a type usable by OS 9. Fonts built for OSX and font types built for other platforms (such as for a Windows machine) will not be usable in OS 9 (Classic).

Fonts not appearing under all users

I have recently performed a clean install on one of our G5s. When I installed the our corporate fonts, the only appear in Font Book under the admin account and not the other user account.
Whenever I try to add them to Font Book in the other user account, they still don't appear.
I have installed them in /Library/Fonts folder, so assumed they would be available to all users.
I'd appreciate any ideas.

Hi, Maff. Welcome to the Discussions.
1. Double-check that they are not in the Home > Library > Fonts folder of the Admin account on the affected Mac.
Font Book's preferences specify by default that fonts installed via Font Book are saved in the User collection, i.e. the Home > Library > Fonts folder of the user installing the fonts. If one wants to use Font Book to install the fonts in the Computer collection, i.e. the Macintosh HD > Library > Fonts folder, one must change this in Font Book's preferences.
2. If you did not use Font Book but placed the fonts in Macintosh HD > Library > Fonts folder of the affected Mac yourself, assure that:
• The permissions for Others on that folder permits Read Only.
• The permissions for Others on the fonts in question are at least Read Only.
Check the permissions using the Details sub-panel of the Ownership & Permissions panel of the Get Info window of that folder or the fonts in question. If the permissions are incorrect, make changes accordingly using the Others pop-up menu.
Good luck!

Certain installed fonts not appearing in flash

This has become a pretty frustrating experience. I'm running
XP and have installed 6 .otf fonts, from the Avenir family. Flash
MX 2004 and Flash 8 don't see all but the Light and Roman versions
of the font (they are the only ones that appear in the font menu).
Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop display all the fonts, however.
An associate suggested that sometimes Flash doesn't like the
names to be non-standard; in other words, it doesn't like "Heavy",
but prefers "Bold", etc. This seems to support the fonts not being
displayed in the Flash font menu, as they are
AvenirLTStd-Heavy.otf, AvenirLTStd-HeavyOblique.otf,
AvenirLTStd-LightOblique.otf and AvenirLTStd-Oblique.otf. The only
two being displayed in the font menu are AvenirLTStd-Roman.otf and
AvenirLTStd-Light.otf ("Roman" and "Light" are pretty traditional
names).
I've tried renaming the fonts to "Bold" and "italic", etc.,
but Windows still sees the original names. I've tried opening the
fonts in Notepad and changing all references (for example, all
"Heavy" to "bold"), but saving the font file (even if I add and
remove a space) makes it unreadable as a font (security issues, I
think).
One reason I think it's a naming issue, is I did try renaming
Heavy to Roman, and installed it, and Flash saw it as Roman, but it
had the Heavy characteristic. This work-around doesn't work,
however, as I need Roman, too (and renaming it Roman2 doesn't
work).
Is there any solution for this? I need access to all of the
Avenir font family, as it's for a branded project that uses Avenir
specifically.
Oh, and last but not least, I have the fonts installed on my
Mac, and Flash 8 and CS3 both see all the fonts, no problem.

It has nothing to do with font name itself. Also, by the way,
font being a system component,
can't be easily renamed in NotePad. You will need dedicated
font editing tool like Macromedia's
Fontographer.
Anyway, Flash simply does not support some fonts and font's
families. Unlike Other tools you brought
up, Flash is vector based and not catered to handle all kind
of fonts, but specific groups only. In
fact if you deal with more applications, you will realize
that it's a common issue. CorelDraw supports
literally any font, half of which won't never shop up in
Photoshop, then these that show up in photoshop,
half of it won't show up in Flash, and so on. You just can't
use all the fonts and it won't matter
whatever you change their names. It's all about the font and
its outlines and the way it is made.

Font not appearing on PDF Output

Hi,
We are creating a XSL-FO report in Oracle Applications R12 which uses a special font. I installed the font using XML Publisher Administrator and I can see the font when I click on Preview on the template. But when the report is run from Applications, the same font does not appear. I will really apreciate if anyone can provide a solution to me for this.
Thanks
Regards,

Hi Abhishek
When you say XSLFO template do you mean an RTF template or an XSLFO template?
Where are you previewing the template successfully and to what frmat?

Fonts not appearing in CS3 program font lists

Certain postscript fonts (ZapfDingbats and Rubino Sans) are correctly installed in Windows 7 and available to Microsoft programs (Word and Excel) but not to Adobe programs. That is, they do not appear in any of the CS3 Design Standard applications (PhotoShop, InDesign, Illustrator) font lists when the application is open. I have uninstalled and reinstalled both the fonts and CS3 to no avail. I have added shortcuts to the Common Files/Adobe/Fonts directory to no avail. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

I assume by PostScript fonts you really mean Type 1 fonts. (TrueType and OpenType fonts are every bit as much "PostScript fonts" as Type 1 fonts are!)
There is a known problem with the CS3 applications with all Type 1 fonts under all Windows Vista 64-bit and Windows 7 64-bit versions when such fonts are installed in the Windows System Font directory. The problem is fixed in CS4.
The workaround is to copy all the Type 1 font files (both the .PFB and the .PFM files - each Type 1 font has one .PFB and one .PFM file) to the Creative Suite's private font directory. Depending upon the CS version, that may be in
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Fonts
or
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Fonts
Restart the Creative Suite programs you are using and the fonts should appear.
You may also copy said fonts into the private font directories of the individual applications (typically a directory path ending with the node name Fonts.

Fonts not appearing in Chrome

I published my site and uploaded it to the web and the places I used Droid Serif Bold the fonts do not appear until I refresh the page.
It appears that some script is being loaded by MUSE which doesn't load prior to everything else and only on page refresh does it load the font!
What can I do? Why include these fonts in MUSE if I can't use them on a live site.
