Fonts not available in After Effects

I'm new to AE and am working with a template that I downloaded.  All is well except when I try to change the font there are very few offered in the "Characters" within the composition.  I have many more fonts in PhotoShop CC for instance that don't show up in AE.  Is there something I have to do for a font to show up available when I'm working within AE?  I'm wanting to use Adobe Garamond Pro.
Thanks,
Dave

I looked at this page before I posted and I don't have a Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Fonts folder.
It looks like this page is from CS5?  I'm using AE CC 2014.

  • Filter not working in After Effects

    Hi there,
    I've improved my Sobel Edge Detection Filter a little bit and tried to use it in After Effects on some video material. But to no avail. It simply outputs a black frame. In Photoshop and Pixel Bender itself it works like a charm. But not in AE. Could somebody please tell me why?
    Here's the code: http://pastebin.com/TUbiGFND
    Thanks a lot!
    Greetings,
    Hendrik

    Pixel Bender and After Effects act totally oddly. I really don't get it.
    I have been trying the following lately:
    define two parameters float3x3 to replace the constant matrices in the edgeX and edgeY functions by two dynamic ones. They are not editable in after effects but behave differently from the constantly defined matrices although they have the same values. With two (uneditable) parameters I can see some effect in AE that is different from the one in Pixel Bender IDE but at least there is something happening. I get completely white frames which I can turn into something visible by turning down the parameters Bias (to zero) and Factor (to something less than five or so). With constantly defined matrices inside the functions edgeX and edgeY nothing happens. The image simply stays black.
    Where is the difference between a parameter float3x3 and a local variable float3x3 with absolutely and definitely the same values? And why does AE act differently from Pixel Bender IDE?
    I also have been playing around with region reasoning functions needed and changed but I can't by the life of me get any results by altering them. Not even any negative results. They seemingly do nothing.

  • Is Mocha available for After Effects CC?

    I was wondering if Mocha was available for After Effects in Creative Cloud? I don't see it in my installation and would really like to download it. Does anyone know if I have to buy it seperate from the membership?

    mocha-AE is not a separate application that you download. It is installed as part of After Effects.
    You use it from within After Effects.
    Instructions are in After Effects Help, here:

  • Font not available in Photoshop CS6 or Illustrator CS6 (Mac)

    I have installed the Frutiger font family in the font library. It appears in the drop-down menu in InDesign, but not Photoshop or Illustrator. How can I make the font available in these programs?

    It’s a ttf file – Frutiger. I’ve managed to get it into InDesign, but not Photoshop or Illustrator. Always seem to have problems with this font!

  • Free Automatic Duck .AAF export plug-in not compatible w/After Effects 6.5?

    Greetings,
    There is a free export/import module for FCP that Automatic Duck produces for Apple that lets you export your time line as an AAF sequence. As most of you know, the AAF sequence can be imported in to After Effects and other programs that support AAF, and all of the cuts are in place exactly where they are in the exported FCP sequence. For those of you who do not know the plug-in can be found at the following address, " http://images.apple.com/movies/us/downloads/AutomaticDuckAAF.dmg.sit "
    There is still an issue when importing a FCP produced AAF sequence into After Effects 6.5. Does any one know of a go around or solution to this problem?
    I spend extensive time searching the film/video web community to find the answer, to no avail!!! I do not believe I am doing anything out of skew to cause the problem, but I will explain the steps that I am taking. First, I take a sequence in FCP that is CUTS ONLY, and with the sequence (timeline) itself active or selected (and not in the browser window) I go to the "file" menu -> "export" -> "Automatic Duck AAF". I save the sequence and it is parsed by the plug-in. Then in After Effect 6.5, I import the AAF sequence. Every-time, every way I have tried, I get an error in After effects that says, " After Effects: AEGF Plugin AAF: Error during parsing: Invalid document structure (5027 12) " and "Error occurred while creating project"
    I really need a solution to this problem, because I have a cut that all green screen and of course is is not consistent. Exporting a QT reference is going to be a pain, so I need to get this working. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I own approximately half of Automatic Duck.

  • Fonts Not Available in Photoshop CS3 (Windows 7)?

    Hello,
    My desktop computer crashed yesterday and I had to run out last night and pick up a new unit as I'm trying to meet a number of deadlines (and not having much luck getting the work done in my laptop).
    The new computer uses Windows 7 as the Operating System.  It has already presented a ton of headaches... I've already spent in excess of ten hours trying to reinstall hardware and dealing with the various quirks that arise.
    The latest of these issues is that I cannot seem to access some fonts from Photoshop CS3.  I'm having the same issue, to a lesser extent, in Illustrator 10.
    For instance, after downloading the Helvetica and Helvetica Neue families in Windows 7, they do not appear in the Type menu in Photoshop.  There are a ton of useless pre-installed fonts there, but not the ones I installed.  If I try to access them from Illustrator, it displays only one weight of each typeface (for instance, it displays Helvetica Neue 65 but omits 55, 75, 95, etc....).
    The issue does not occur for all fonts.  For instance, I installed AvantGarde and it displays just fine.  In that instance, the fonts were TrueType whereas the Helvetica font files are Type 1 font files.
    Can anyone help?  I've already lost a day-and-a-half of work, and can't afford to spend much more time screwing around with this nonsense.

    Bill,
    Thanks for your thoughtul and thorough reply.
    To clarify, I do have a copy of ATM, but just have not installed it on my XP computer or this new one.  It is on my Illustrator 10 install disk.  Not sure if it will work on Windows 7, as Illustrator 10 would not run on the new computer until I set the compatibility to work with Vista and earlier.  I suppose that I could install it and see if it works.  Might be worth a shot.
    I will check out the software titles you referenced.
    With regard to font installation on Windows 7, there are three techniques as far as I can tell.  They are:
    1) Drag and drop method: Works the same as it always has.  Simply drag the typefaces into the Fonts folder or Control Panel > Fonts.
    2) You can navigate to where a font file is located (the desktop, for instance) and then right-click on it and choose "Install."  This is what I referred to previously, and I tried it after drag-and-drop did not work.
    3) For the third method (according to Windows 7 documentation I found online at http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/w7desktop/thread/324ecdc6-8574-4527-8099- efc430bf550f), you are supposed to be able to go into the Control Panel > Fonts, press ALT (to display the menu) and then choose File > Install New Font.  You would then be prompted to navigate to the typeface you want to install.  However, this option is not available on my computer.  When I tried it, I can access the File menu, but "Install New Font" is not listed on the dropdown.

  • Roboto font not available in certain applications and Openbox menu

    I have downloaded Roboto TTF font from here and saved it in ~/.fonts.
    After downloading it, I ran:
    $ fc-cache -vf
    After that, I changed the font in lxappearance and obconf and every single application I have tried so far uses it by default now except Openbox menu (window titles seem to work just fine) and Geany.
    What can I do to fix this?
    I really like the font and pretty much everything runs well except those two.
    Note: tried placing those files in /usr/share/fonts/local, but nothing changed.

    Any ideas?

  • Loaded fonts not available to apps

    Running 10.6.8, using Font Agent Pro, have not had problem for past year and a half, and all of a sudden yesterday, fonts not recognized by apps. Using Quark, versions 6 - 9, Adobe Creative Suites CS3 - CS6, Word, Excel, etc. I have loaded fonts through Fontbook instead of using Font Agent Pro, I have removed caches with terminal, ran Repair Disk Permissions, Shutdown, boot in Safe Mode, everything I can think of. In Fontbook, fonts display correctly but a lot of them are not available in other Apps. For instance, Arial & Arial Bold not available, but Italic & Bold Italic are fine. I work at a commercial printer and this is killing me!

    Did you repair permissions and restarted your computer after the font installatons?

  • Perfectly good fonts "Not Available"

    Has someone figured out the font incompatibility issues Snow Leopard seems to have with a lot of fonts that were working just fine under Leopard?
    I have a great many fonts that I want to be able to use, but since my upgrade to 10.6, they are "Not Available" and refuse to be activated.
    What do I have to do to get them working again?

    All but one somewhat small font issue has been resolved since 10.6.3. There are two things that come to mind.
    Reset Font Book. If it's database is damaged, a very common symptom of that is not being able to activate and/or deactivate fonts. Do that by restarting in Safe Mode (restart and hold down the Shift key), then restart normally. After that, all installed fonts will be active, regardless of their state beforehand. Any font sets you've created will be gone.
    Or if your problem centers around Type 1 PostScript fonts:
    Type 1 PostScript fonts are a set. One file is a suitcase containing all of the low res bitmap screen fonts. The rest are the outline printer fonts. As an example, here's Adobe Garamond.
    Adobe Garamond
    AGarBol
    AGarBolIta
    AGarIta
    AGarReg
    AGarSem
    AGarSemIta
    The first file which I highlighted in green is the font suitcase of bitmap screen fonts. The rest are the outline printer fonts.
    1) The files for a Type 1 PostScript font must have both the screen and printer fonts for a given set in order to work. They also must be in the same folder.
    2) The suitcase of bitmap fonts will work alone, but output will be terrible since the system will print the fonts using the 72 dpi screen fonts in the suitcase if the outline portions are missing.
    3) Having only the outline fonts will not work. You will get exactly what you are having problems with. You can see the fonts, but they will not load. That's not a problem with Font Book, Suitcase or other font manager. None of them, nor the system itself will load outline fonts from a Type 1 PostScript font without the matching suitcase of screen fonts present.

  • Fonts not available in IDCC2014, with Suitcase Fusion 5 or 6

    I have opened and worked a InDesign CC2014 doc. Everything is fine. The next day I attempt to open the doc again with the same fonts installed and they come up missing. I try several Macs, (different OSs), different versions of Suitcase Fusion including the latest and I get the same issue. Cleared font cache, restarted, etc to no avail. Any ideas? This has happened over the years occasionally, and has seemed to happen recently on a few occasions.
    Thanks

    That's a large part of the problem. You have more than one font manager on your Mac. If you're not using Font Book, delete it. Then you need to reset its orphaned database so OS X stops trying to control which fonts are, or aren't active according to that data.
    To remove Font Book from the hard drive, follow these steps:
    1) Open Font Book, and then its preferences. Uncheck the box for "Alert me if system fonts change". Close the preferences and shut down Font Book. Put the Font Book application in the trash and delete it.
    2) Restart your Mac and immediately hold down the Shift key when you hear the startup chime to boot into Safe Mode. Keep holding it until OS X asks you to log in (you will get this screen on a Safe Mode boot even if your Mac is set to automatically log in). Let the Mac finish booting to the desktop and then restart normally.
    This will reset Font Book's database and clear the cache files in your user account. The main goal in this step is to remove the orphaned Font Book database from the hard drive. With the Font Book application no longer on the hard drive, a new one cannot be created. Which is what we want.
    3) Close all running applications. From an administrator account, open the Terminal app and enter the following command. You can also copy/paste it from here into the Terminal window:
    sudo atsutil databases -remove
    This removes all font cache files. Both for the system and all user font cache files. After running the command, close Terminal and immediately restart your Mac.

    I'm hoping Adobe plans to at least recognize these cards one day soon so they don't show up unsupported.  If anything I would expect the newer adobe software to work better with newer cards than it should with 5 year old quadro cards.
    I know a situation like this can be very frustrating, sorry about that.
    Unfortunately, the newer Maxwell NVIDIA GPUs ship without the OptiX Library and acceleration of ray-traced 3D compositions is dependent on that. Therefore, acceleration of these comps will not ever be supported with those GPUs. You may want to reinstall that Quadro card if you plan on doing a lot of ray-traced 3D work.
    The After Effects team does recommend that you move forward with Cinema 4D Lite, as that is what is being tested and supported currently and going into the future.

  • In Pages 5.2, some fonts "not available", yet present in Font Book and working in other apps

    Using Pages 5.2, I open a document created in a previous version, and I get error messages about certain fonts within a font family being "not available" in OS X.  However, these supposedly unavailable fonts are present in Font Book and work just fine in all other apps running on OS X.  In fact, I still have the older version of Pages on my system, and it still finds the fonts without issue.  The specific fonts troubling me at the moment are Myriad Pro Semibold It and Myriad Pro Cond.  Pages 5.2 replaces them with Helvetica.  I have wasted hours of time trying to resolve this problem, and I am at a total loss.  What can I do?

    Like so many other thing is is probably gone. Why not use Pages 09 that has about 100 features more than Pages 5. If you haven't deleted it it should still be in Applications/iWork 09 folder.

  • Why are some fonts not available?

    I have found that there are fonts in HD>Library>Fonts that are not showing up in any Collection in Font Book and are not available in apps that I'm working with. Font Book Help does not address this problem.
    Some help with this, please?
    Peter

    What types of fonts are they? If they're Type 1 PostScript, this may be the problem.
    Font Book can read PostScript fonts. But from the sounds of it, you don't have the whole font. Type 1 PostScript fonts are a set. One file is a suitcase containing all of the low res bitmap screen fonts. The rest are the outline printer fonts. As an example, here's Adobe Garamond.
    Adobe Garamond
    AGarBol
    AGarBolIta
    AGarIta
    AGarReg
    AGarSem
    AGarSemIta
    The first file which I highlighted in green is the font suitcase of bitmap screen fonts. The rest are the outline printer fonts.
    1) The files for a Type 1 PostScript font must have both the screen and printer fonts for a given set in order to work. They also must be in the same folder.
    2) The suitcase of bitmap fonts will work alone, but output will be terrible since the system will print the fonts using the 72 dpi screen fonts in the suitcase if the outline portions are missing.
    3) Having only the outline fonts will not work. You will get exactly what you are having problems with. You can see the fonts, but Font Book won't load them. That's not a problem with Font Book itself. No font manager will load outline fonts without the matching suitcase of screen fonts present.
