Fonts not showing in InDesign CS6

Hi there,
I've seen a similar question to this before through a Google search and I tried the advice listed such as placing the affected fonts in: C:\Program Files(x86)\Adobe\InDesign CS6\Fonts; as well as searching for fonts with a **after its name.  Doesn't work.  The files originated in CS5 and pops up saying there are two missing links (fonts) which are Avenir Book and Avenir Black.  I've done the "Find Font" and the only one that shows is Avenir Book.  Avenir Black isn't even there, even after re-installing and relocating to the new folder.  Secondly, even after I save the file after "finding" Avenir Book, upon re-opening it still says it's missing.  Is there anything else I can try-short of uninstalling InDesign CS6 (I still have CS5 installed)?  Also, I'm not that familiar with InDesign, it isn't a program I use much.
Thanks!

Is this the same computer where the files started out in CS5?
There are probably quite a few different cuts of Avenir (certainly over the years it has been available as TT and T1 in both Windows and Mac formats, and I have an OpenType version here from Linotype). Some possibilities for why CS6 might not see a font are that you have installed a different version, you have more than one version installed or it is installed in more than one location, or that it is looking at a different internal name in CS6. Typically, if the fonts are showing as missing, but are, in fact installed, using Find Font and substituting the same font will solve the problem.

  • Windows Fonts not showing in PhotoShop CS6

    Newly built Windows 7 Machine, installed the fonts and they show in all office Apps but not showing in Photoshop CS6, can you tell me how to get them to appear?
    Thanks

    Photoshop lists all fonts that are present in 'Fonts' folder in Windows.
    If PS is not listing some fonts:
    Either those fonts are not located in 'Fonts' folders (Windows keeps it in a secret statsh as they're proprietary to Windows 7)
    One or more of those fonts are corrupt. Adobe doesn't list corrupt fonts. In fact, often times Photoshop hangs when you have one or more corrupt/ invalid font registries on your system. Scan for corrupt fonts and remove them
    Can you post the 'fonts' that are 'missing', so we can see if they have any associated known issues with Photoshop?

  • Fonts not showing in inDesign

    A am using (in two different offices) Extensis Fusion 3 and Universal Type Server 3 (UTS) and both are having the same issue. I am on Windows 7, 64bit with Adobe CS5 with Adobe font collection. All licenced and legit versions.
    This issue has been happening for a couple years and I have finally had enough and need it resolved. Computers have come and gone, fresh installs etc etc but we are still having the same issues.
    Randomly sometimes Indesign is not showing activated fonts in indesign. This usually happens with Helvetica Neue Light 45 for some reason but can happen to other fonts, usually the ones we need at the time.
    The most recent case is that we cannot get the fonts we need (although activated) and we can see other fonts that are not activated?
    Has anyone experienced this before?

    Sorry that you're having issues with activation. Could you please contact support directly to diagnose the issue? It could be an issue with the font itself, and could benefit from inspection.

  • My fonts are not showing up in CS6

    My fonts are not showing up in CS6, but they are installed.  How do I fix this?

    Please provide some more detail. Are you on Windows or Mac? In which applications are the fonts not showing? And what do you mean by "not showing" (provide a screen shot if possible)?

  • Fonts not showing up in InDesign CC 64bit

    I find it extremely difficult to believe that Adobe have not found a solution to the issue of installed fonts not showing up in InDesign. If anybody has found a solution that does not include the "rewriting" of font types. Please assist. We specialize in Brand Management, and it becomes extremely challenging when Adobe InDesign does not show up the installed font in order to ensure Brand Management :/

    POSSIBLE SOLUTION
    I'm not sure if this is the cause for anyone else, but I had the same symptoms--almost no fonts showing up in InDesigns Font dropdown options.
    THE SOLUTION:  The new version of ID has two "font filter toggle button". They are the "Apply Favorite Filter", and "Apply Typekit Filter". It seem that in my install, the Typekit filter was on by default, which makes it so that the Font list only displays those fonts that originate from Typekit, as opposed to the thousand you have on your hard drive.
    Click the toggle to turn off the filter and --zowee! All your fonts come right back.
    I hope this helps some of you. It would also explain why people on both Macs and Windows boxes are having this issue.
    Best,

    Hindi font not show in Pagemaker

    Pagemaker has limited font support and will not be able to handle Hindi. There was a middle eastern version back in the day, nut I'm not sure if it supported hindi. Indesign and maybe some 3rd part plugins would be your best bet.

  • Linotype Decoration Pi will not work with InDesign CS6

    Linotype Decoration Pi Font will not work with InDesign CS6. If I buy a new version from the Sdobr store, will it work?

    Has the font ever worked in CS6? If not, did it work in a previous version? Did it ever work in any version of ID using your current OS version? I ask the last question because I helped someone on another forum today that had a font that did not survive migration on their Mac. In their case, the font was selectable but the application would crash exporting to PDF or printing.
    I'm using a PC. It works here.
    It is listed along with the fonts that start with D here.

    fonts not showing correctly only when on my account page on app store

    Firstly, make sure that your device is not hidden (left hand pane). If it just reads device then toggle between SHOW and HIDE.
    Secondly, try all the other ports on your computer, even a number of times.
    Thirdly, if you have another computer try plugging your device into it without taking any action, give it a moment, remove it and try it back in your other computer again.
    Failing all that, see here - http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538 for Windows and http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1591 for Macs
    And failing all that put the device into Recovery mode. See here and note the paragraph 'If you restore from a different computer.... ' down near the bottom of the page -

  • CS6: Fonts not showing up in Indesign or other adobe programs

    There are missing fonts in several of our files due to moving our marketing inhouse.
    I have installed the Avenir complete font family into C:\Windows\Fonts and a lot of them aren't showing up in InDesign or the other Adobe programs.
    After looking at some other forums I followed the instructions to place them into;
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe InDesign CS6\Fonts
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Fonts
    STILL The only fonts showing up are;
    Avenir 35 Light
    Avenir 45 Book
    Avenir 55 Roman
    Avenir 65 Medium
    We have already been using this font for all our printing so changing is not an option.
    Could someone give me some other suggestions?

    Have you rebooted? What format is the font? Does it show correctly in any applications?

  • Postcript fonts not showing in any of the CS6 applications

    I cannot get any of the postscript fonts to appear in the CS6 apps. I am using FontAgent Pro 4.1 to manually activate fonts with CS6 applications (auto-activiation works fine in pre CS6 programs - I do realize that InsiderSoftware has not released updated plugins for CS6 for windows yet). When I activate an opentype or truetype font they appear within a few seconds in the CS6 apps, but none of the postscript/type 1 fonts show. They do show in all other programs, including earlier versions of the Adobe programs. I have delete all adobefnt*.lst files, rebooted and still no progress.

    Updated info - it appears that the folder \Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Fonts along with a shortcut pointing to the folder where FAP adds shortcuts (FAP_APS) for the type 1 fonts that are activated. This was present in the \Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Fonts and all fonts except type 1 would appear in the CS6 apps when activated. I added the shortcut as shown in the link (http://knowledgebase.insidersoftware.com/entry/25/) and so far, type 1 fonts, once activated, are now showing in CS6. I wonder is this has anything to do with installing the 64 bit versions of Illustrator and Photoshop?

  • Enabled fonts not showing up in InDesign after Mountain Lion Upgrade

    After upgrading to Mountain Lion, fonts that are enabled in Font Book (Adobe open Type) are not showing up in InDesign CS5.5.
    However, if I go to Font Book and disable the fonts, then re-enable them...they will show up in InDesign.
    Anyone know how to fix this?
    Thanks!

    It sounds like a small glitch in your Mountain Lion upgrade. If you're just done an in-place upgrade (not a clean install) these things can happen.
    It sounds like you've found the workaround. But if you discover other problems with the upgrade, you should consider a clean install. Do a Google search on "clean install Mountain Lion" to find out how.
