Fonts missing in action

Moving to a new computer and in the process of transferring everything over.
When I open one of the CS3 documents I'm getting a "font not available" message. The same doc opens fine on the old machine.
The two fonts are Arial Narrow and ITC Zaph Dingbats Medium.
I've searched everywhere I can think of on the old machine as it's obviously there. Windows/fonts... the common files dir in Adobe's Program files directory... etc.
Can someone point me in the right direction to find these blasted fonts??
Even I knew the _exact_ font name to search for, I expect I could track it down. The problem be that I've purchased/installed just so many Adobe programs that it's buried somewhere other than where I'd usually look, or perhaps got installed without a proper link. (?)
Thanks

Well that solved half my problem. Thanks Dominic.
Aerial Narrow refused to cooperate however. But upon searching, I found that this is hardly a problem unique to my system. Many others hit by it as well.
Finally found a solution that worked for me in this thread-- posting a ways down in this thread by Mauro Bertuol:

Given I was working w/ docs that came in from MSWord, this explains a lot.

  • Font missing issues

    After seemingly resolving 'font missing' message when opening a document, the font is still highlighted in pale pink and I can't seem to get rid of it. Can anyone help?

    Strangely enough, I seem to have resolved the issue myself, by removing the fonts from Font Book. Your last reply popped up as I was removing them, and I was going to reload them to font book, however when I went to inDesign to open the document and get you some screenshots, the issue seemed to have resolved itself, leaving me baffled, as I thought I had to have fonts installed in Font Book to be able to use them?
    I do have a secondary issue with another font, Knockout, though. I have added this to Font Book, for use in the same document (I had no issues with this one going missing though), but when I view it in Font Book, it appears as shown below? Do you know why?

  • Symbol font missing problem

    I have a Visio design containing symbols from Symbols font (in Windows) converted to PDF and then imported in the Illustrator CS 6. It says the symbol font missing and substitued with 'Myriad Pro', and those symbols are shown as crossed ('X'). As suggested in some posts, I tried to replace this font with <Symbol> font  (tried others as well) using 'Find Font', but it didn't replace. Can some one tell me a working solution, preferably the solution to the missing symbol font problem itself, if not a way to replace.
    Thanks a lot in advance.
    Raj

    Placing seems to work even without flattening, but as you said cannot edit text anymore.
    Regarding the other solution, that is where my problem was. I tried to assign the correct font  (and with some other fonts too just to check) to the text objects, but Illustrator doesn't seem to accept as the font remains the same 'Myriad Pro' all the time! It is infact what 'Find Font' does for font replacemet, if I understood correctly, but alas this too doesn't work.
    Until there is no better solution, I can at least use the edit restricted place method for now! Thanks Monika for that.

  • Opera fonts missing/garbled? [solved]

    I just did an Arch installation on my desktop out of curiosity, and it is FAST AS A MOTHER(rhymes with)TRUCKER ... now I can see what the whole rage was about!  I've been running it on my 233Mhz Dechutes laptop w/212MB ram and THAT runs well, man!!  2.35 Ghz really shows.
    Anyway ... I have installed (via pacman) xorg, xfce4, opera, and some other misc stuff, and when using opera, I can't help but notice that there are fonts missing.  I have opera set to pop-up a progress bar at the bottom of the page as things load, and I see a lot of boxes, empty spaces, and sometimes kanji characters.  Also, in the transfers window, there is no text at all.  Like where the filename, size, etc. should be, there is just blank space.  Very weird.
    Is anyone having a similar problem?  Is there a font pack that I should install or something?  Everything runs spankin ... except for opera.  And that still runs very spankin, just the fonts ... they don't.
    Thanks all!

    I had the same problem...
    In opera no text in transfer window, in console - corrupted MC...
    Fixed it by changing my locale=en_US.utf8 to en_US.85... can't remember exact numbers... You just edit /etc/locales.gen file - uncomment that en_US.85...... and then save and run locales-gen...
    It workeg for me now i have a beautifull MC in console and everything else
    I'm using fluxbox...

  • Error message: Helvetica Medium outline font missing when creating PDF's

    Error message: Helvetica Medium outline font missing when creating PDF's. Where can I downlaod it and why is it suddenly happening?

    OS? Version of ID?
    This means that either you have an extra Helvetica Medium font installed and it's interfering with ID finding the T1 version, or the T1 version is damaged. I found this really old thread that explains it fairly well: http://www.asadesigner.com/22-indesign/2d812de56777cc90.htm
    The good news is that it's probably only affecting the page information marks.

  • Fonts missing – though I'm 100% sure I'm not using them

    Hi,
    I've got a Keynote file, which I'm sure is only using one font ("Lato" from google fonts). Every time I open it, it says it's missing 2 more fonts (Cantarell and SourceSansPro).
    I'm 100% sure the fonts are absolutely nowhere in the template. Not on any slide, and not in any Styles Preset:
    I checked all presets and they only use Lato.
    I duplicated the Keynote file and deleted all slides and all master slides apart from one. All I have left is an empty, white slide with absolutely no elements on it. Save -> reopen -> still says it's fonts missing!!
    Does anyone know what the problem could be?

    I created the file, but during the creation of the file, the Lato font was not installed – I'm 100% sure.
    The square shape was copied over from another presentation I created. And THAT presentation was using the Lato font (though NOT in the shape I copied over). For the new presentation, I don't use Lato and I also don't want to have to install it. I don't want to run around in circles, particularly not with installing fonts on iOS.
    Anyway – the square only serves as a simple example, in order to illustrate the problem in a concise way. There's a lot more shapes that I want to copy from the old "Lato" presentation to this new one. NONE of those shapes have any fonts or text inside them, yet they still come up with the "font missing" problem.
    I'm hoping that someone from the Apple Support team is reading this.

  • Fonts Missing in Adobe, Exist in FontBook - Post Yosemite Upgrade

    Working from a company computer. Operating CS5. Our company font family is Museo.
    The problem began immediately after updating the computer to OS X Yosemite. All Adobe programs fail to find the Museo typeface. I was able to bypass the problem in InDesign by placing Museo in the Fonts folder. Photoshop and Illustrator doesn't have such a folder that I can find.
    The fonts are in Font Book and are validated.
    Some other information:
    The fonts appear in the Notes application but NOT in Microsoft Office.
    Other default adobe fonts are missing as well (ex: Myriad Pro, Adobe Caslon, etc)
    Not sure if this has anything to do with the problem, but I noticed Museo in Font Book is OpenType:
    Yet photoshop seems to be looking for TrueType?
    Any ideas on how to get fonts back into Adobe?

    Have you tried re-creating Photoshop preferences:
    To re-create the preferences files for Photoshop, start the application while holding down Ctrl+Alt+Shift (Windows) or Command+Option+Shift (Mac OS). Then, click Yes to the message, "Delete the Adobe Photoshop Settings file?"
    Note: If this process doesn't work for you while you're using a wireless (Bluetooth) keyboard, attach a wired keyboard and retry.
    Important: If you re-create the preferences by manually deleting the Adobe Photoshop CS6 Settings file, make sure that you only delete that file. If you delete the entire settings folder, you also delete any unsaved actions or presets.
    Reinstalling Photoshop does not remove the preferences file. Before reinstalling Photoshop, re-create your preferences.
    NEW Video! Julieanne Kost created a video that takes you through two ways of resetting your Photoshop preferences. The manual preference file removal method is between 0:00 - 5:05. The keyboard shortcut method is between 5:05 - 8:18. The video is located here:
    How to Reset Photoshop CS6’s Preferences File | The Complete Picture with Julieanne Kost | Adobe TV

    Important: Apple made the user library folder hidden by default with the release of Mac OS X 10.7. If  you require access to files in the hidden library folder to perform Adobe-related troubleshooting, see How to access hidden user library files.

  • Font errors in some fonts (missing "o") only when printing. Snow Leopard.

    In a couple of fonts I use most commonly, the letter "o" (lower case o), does not print. A space appears when the letter should be. It displays fine on the screen. In a QuickView of the font file, the letter is also missing. This just started after I upgraded to Snow Leopard.
    1. What is causing this?
    2. How can I fix it?
    3. Is there a good application that will let me see in innards of the font in detail?
    4. How could the display differ from the printed version?
    More info:
    These fonts were originally purchase a long time ago (about 15 years ago) from Adobe. They are Berkeley and InterState.
    The problem occurs in all variations of the fonts.
    I have 100s of fonts; so far only these two are affected, but I haven't been able to look at every other font.

    What I don't understand is 1) why these fonts worked in Leopard but not Snow Leopard and 2) why these particular fonts.
    If you search you will find a large number of posts in these forums about changes in Snow Leopard related to fonts, e.g.

  • Printing problem when PDF is sent to the printer with certain fonts - missing text

    I'm running into a printing problem when PDFs containing certain characters of the Calibri font are used.  The text in large sections of the PDF is missing on the paper version, but the text is there on the screen.  It's also happened when the PDFs we created were e-mailed out to a client and printed on their printer.  The problem is not present when printing directly from the programs (Microsoft Word, Excel, Visio, etc.).  I've been trying to get tech support from Adobe on this, but every time I call they apologize and say they will call back in 4-6 hours with an answer.  Same result each time, no call back.  If anyone from Adobe is listening, it's case number 184891587.  The font appears as an embedded subset when I look at the document properties.  Sometimes deleting one or two Characters allows for larger text blocks to be printed - i.e. removing a long dash in bold from the heading of a paragraph makes the paragraph reappear when printed to paper from PDF.  In all cases the PDF appears correct on the screen.  Printing as an image allows the text to appear, but the image quality isn't acceptable for small text, even at the 600 dpi setting on the printer.  If the PDF is sent out by e-mail, we do not have control over the end-user's printer setup anyway, so we need this to work in all cases.  
    The setup/process I'm using is as follows:
    Windows 7 Professional SP1 64-Bit
    Microsoft Office 2013 - problem is present when printing documents from Word, Excel or Visio.  Even other variations on documents. 
    I've tried Acrobat versions 11.0.0 to 11.0.5 as well as Acrobat Pro 11.0.0 and 11.0.1.  Same Result
    Printing to Adobe PDF as the printer, from the third party application
    Printing to a Xerox printer from PDF using Acrobat - Text missing
    Client prints to Konica printer - Text missing
    I print to the wide-format Ricoh (which also does 11x17) and the text is present. 
    Is there something I'm missing?  Is the entire font not getting embedded into the PDF file?  I noticed that rolling back to a much older version of the Calibri font (1.02 compared to 5.72) makes the problem mostly go away, but it's not completely gone.  Is it possible the font is too large to be completely embedded?  Where can I go from here? 

    Success!  At least for now.  It looks like my problem was fixed with Adobe's most recent update, 11.0.06.  From the release notes:
    PDF creation
    Added support for Lotus Notes 9.
    Added support for WebCapture in IE 11.
    Added support for conversions from AutoCAD 2013.
    3652540 A blank pdf is created for files having hidden visual style.
    3601108 Flow Chart converts as a multicolored square.
    3654345 Word documents missing parts of images in conversion to PDF.
    3654572 Temporary file size increases when creating pdf by combining multiple files into one PDF.
    3670155 PDF file created with Distiller XI prints incorrectly to some printers. (Emphasis mine)
    3599407 Checkbox check marks do not appear in these files.
    3663233 IE Web Capture in localized OS: Icons and drop-down menu items are missing and conversion dialog is not localized.
    3651931 Chrome Only: Few web pages when converted to pdf from Chrome plugin doesn’t show up the Save As dialog.
    3597910 EPM Mode On: Web capture is not working on Windows 8-32 bit when cache folder is missing.
    3610644 Firefox 23.0: With Firefox version 23.0 (latest), the WebCapture icon shows up very dim as if it is disabled.
    3650244 ODA falis to convert DWG files to PDF for large files.
    I don't know if that's definately what solved the problem, but it sure sounds similar and this is the update that made the printing problem go away.  We can't get the PDFs to fail at this point with our printers, even with Calibri 5.72.  I'll come back to thread if we have printing problems at the end-user locations. 

  • Missing soap action in the soap axis receiver adapter ?

    Hi Guys,
    I could not find the soap action field in the soap receiver adapter and i followed the OSS note
    Note 1054986 - SOAP (Axis) receiver adapter's SOAPAction field missing
    Please apply the following patch and use the handler parameter defaultSOAPAction for the XI30OutboundHandler handler in the request chain. This handler parameter can be configured as a module parameter for the HandlerBean module associated with this handler. It is noted that this module parameter takes precedence over the channel parameter for SOAPAction if this field is available.
    For SP12
    XI ADAPTER FRAMEWORK CORE 7.0
    Support Package 12, Patch Level 1 (SAPXIAFC12P_1.SCA)
    we are on SP15 so i think the option should be available ?
    Do i need to add this parameter in the Module Configuration ?
    Moduel Key : ?
    Parameter Name: handler.type ---> is this right
    Parameter Value ---> ?
    we need to validate the user id and pw on IIS for NTLM authentication. Any help regarding developong the handlers would be great
    any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Srini

    Srinivas,
    You are on the right path...........yes that is the right note for this issue.
    The problem is this is not a general fix that comes with all service packs as the axis adapter is not used a lot, that being said.if you dont see it with sp15..i would safely go apply this fix and see if it works..else you might have to open an oss note for the same...
    Hope that helps..
    Regards
    Ravi Raman
    P.S: On my home system..i did apply the fix and i was on a much higher sp level ..i saw some errors..in the logs but nothing a restart couldent fix..

  • Fonts missing in Photoshop CS5

    I have many DVD case templates I created with Photoshop CS2.  I now have Photoshop CS5.  I am opening these DVD case templates with PS CS5.  There have been several instances where the fonts I used in CS2 is not available in CS5.  Is it possible for me to import these fonts into PS CS5?  If so, how?
    Thanks,
    Angela

    One follow-up question concerning the "missing fonts" issue.....
    With Photoshop CS5, if the font is missing the program will alert you.  Because of these alerts, I was able to determine which fonts were missing in my Photoshop projects and install the missing fonts.
    Unfortunately, Premiere Pro CS5 will use the "next best" font if a font is missing.  Therefore, I was trying to determine which fonts were "incorrect" within my APP CS5 projects and install the missing fonts accordingly.
    My question.....I have approx 360 fonts from my XP computer.  Would there be any harm in installing all of these fonts on my Windows 7 computer, to make sure I cover my bases?  Currently, there are approx 300 fonts on my Windows 7 computer.
    I have verified that if I try to install a font that is currently on my Windows 7 computer, I will get a prompt asking if I want to replace the existing font.  Obviously in this case, I would not replace an Windows 7 font with a Windows XP font.
    Take care,
    Angela
