Gsfonts installation overriding default font

The Gimp depends on gsfonts (I don't know why), but it's installation overrides the default font, which I don't know which is. How do I avoid this, or return to my current font after installing gsfonts?

Anyone?

Go to properties first: and set before typing anything in as shown here:

Then right click bring up this menu while inside active field and click on item with arrrow:
http://screencast.com/t/ZTRjMWRkMzk
Now what ever you typed should reflect the new Font setting.
we may be as you say. But then again other people act like whats on the other side.
We do our best. And if we fall short, well we gave it our best shot.
Okay. In the interests of being completely clear:
I have already tried this. Several times. This procedure will change the default for any of the fields that I place by hand. It does not change the default for any of the fields placed by the Wizard. I was unable to find a solution to the problem in any of the manuals, books, or on-line forums, which is why I posted here as a last resort. This leads to two conclusions:
A. Your advice is incorrect
B. There is a problem with my installation of Acrobat
I will assume that A is not the correct conclusion. I will therefore try a re-install of my software to see if this clears up the problem. There have been other issues with other Adobe software on my machine that a re-installed has fixed nicely. Luckily, I don't have to do this at all often.

How do I set a new default font in CS6 for ALL documents

I've seen in many discussions on here how to change the default font for new documents, but no one has addressed the idea of how to make it so that you have a preferred default font that overrides Myriad for any document you open. Is that even possible? I receive files from many different sources and most people just stick with Myriad. I need to change that font constantly in documents to Helvetica Bold and want the type tool to just stay there unless I manually change it myself. Any ideas?

mrsmeed,
You may follow the instructions here (follow the link with that name, and remember to work on the preference file with illy closed):
Working with the AIPrefs/Adobe Illustrator Prefs file
You may try with Helvetica-Bold (instead of just Helvetica for Helvetica Regular); as you can see there may be a bit of trial and error to find the exact name.
If you do, I should be thankful if you will report back so I can add the right name in that hint.

HT4059 default fonts in ibooks

Easy question. I'm learning to convert some brochures in ePublishing for work. Is there a list of default fonts? I have a script that overrides, but Impact does not work.
Any help and further reading for ePub is greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Hi Niels,
There is some sort of entity settings file that Frame opens (in the background) during XML import that is actually a binary FM file and contains fonts like this. On FM11 on my machine it is here:
C:\Program Files\Adobe\AdobeFrameMaker11\Structure\entfmts
When FM attempts to read it during an import, you'll get these font errors if your machine doesn't have them. The solution is to make a backup of the file, then go into the original and just replace those fonts with something else. I'm not really clear on what this file is for but replacing fonts in it have never had any consequence for me. But like I said, make a backup
See if that fixes the problem.

How to set a different default font

Is there a way to set a different font other that Myriad Pro as the default font so that you don't have to continually reset it for every field or label???

During import, Designer attempts to match fonts in the PDF file with fonts that are available on your computer. If the file contains an unavailable font, Designer displays a dialog box showing the missing font and a suggested replacement. You can accept the replacement font or change it.
This font substitution is not permanent. Designer must map the unavailable fonts every time the form opens. You can make the font substitution permanent by selecting File > Save As and then selecting Permanently Replace Unavailable Fonts before saving the file. This method is recommended for permanently substituting fonts.
You can also set up a font-substitution table in the file ConvertPDF_FontMap.txt in the Designer installation directory. If you add a font-substitution rule to this file, all occurrences of the substituted font are changed to the new font when you import a PDF, regardless of the font-mapping table and regardless of whether the substituted font is available on your computer.
ConvertPDF_FontMap.txt is empty by default. Each entry you add should have the following syntax:
input_font=Designer_font
where input_font is the name of the font used in the input PDF file, and Designer_font is the name of the font that is installed on your computer. Asterisks (*) represent wildcard characters. For example, the string *Cour* refers to all font names that contain the string Cour. Question marks (?) represent single-character wildcards. Adding wildcard characters before and after the input_font name accounts for any slight variations in the name of the font in the form. For example
*Arial*=Arial
*Helv*=Arial
*Cour*=Courier New
*=Times New Roman
Processing occurs in descending order. The last line in the example converts all remaining fonts to Times New Roman.

Restoring the default font set

I recently installed a large collection of fonts and have since noticed an incredible decrease in my system performance. So, I'm wondering if there's an easy way to get back to the default font installation set without having to completely restore my computer? I may or may not have a backup of the system before I installed all of the fonts, I've likely made a new backup since then. I'm using Linotype FontExplorer X to manage fonts and I'm worried that this app also has something to do with the font problems on my system. Could anyone shed light on what exactly FontExplorer does with my fonts that OS X wouldn't do by itself?
Thanks!

FontExplorer like most other font managers allow you to collect specific fonts into groups that can be activated or deactivated according to need. This helps reduce the OS load of having to handle all the fonts that are installed in the several fonts folders.
For more on font management I suggest you visit the User Tips Library and read the tips on font management.

Default Font in Safari Won't Change After Upgrade to Leopard

Hey - I just upgraded my iMac from Tiger to Leopard and everything went great; however, when I use Safari, my default font is something random. I tried changing it to anything different but it stays the same (in Safari>Pref's>Appearance). I even tried re-installing it. Any suggestions?
Thanks!

We're left with two things, both of which may be somewhat time-consuming.
The first is to use the new user account you created and migrate all your programs and settings that work over to it, and then delete the old user account, or:
Do an Archive & Install, with Preserve Users and Network Settings. This will give you a completely new installation of 10.5 and move the old one to a folder named Previous System, which you can then delete. All your users and network settings will be preserved, but you will need to use Software Update afterward to bring your system current.

How do I change size of default fonts on OS X 10.9.4?

How do I change size of default fonts on OS X 10.9.4?

CS4 does run on Mavericks. The 150:30 error means licensing broke.
Two ways to fix this: If you are used to the Terminal app, you download the license recovery package and following instructions carefully, you use the python script in the package. Error "Licensing has stopped working" | Mac OS
I've done this and it works.
If for some reason it doesn't, reinstall CS4 from your discs, or download the CS4 installer here.

What defines the default font?

What defines the default font used in an applet besides the font.properties file? I'm running an applet on two NT systems with identical font.properties files but the applets use two different fonts. Is there an OS setting in NT that would override the default in Java?

To my best of knowledge, it's completely contained in the font.properties file. At least for jdk118. You can always create and define other fonts in your font.properties file even going to the extent of removing the ones you don't like probably but I haven't done that. I have added new fonts to the font.properties file and then set what ever component you are using to this new font. So to create a new font to use on a button and add the button to a panel.
p1 = new JPanel();
Font bf = new Font("comic",Font.BOLD,16);
JButton bj = new JButton(label);
bj.setFont(bf);
bj.addActionListener(this);
p1.add(bj);
Note that in my font.properties file I added the following line:
comic.0=Comic Sans MS, ANSI_CHARSET

How do you change the default font in Illustrator CS5?

I have upgraded my Illustrator to CS5 and my default font has changed to a strange font. In Photoshop and InDesign, I was told that all you have to do is change the font in the Character menu to the font that you wish to be set as "default" and it will be the font that you always start with.
NOTE: Does this mean that if I use a different font in a different document, the font will stay that font unless I change it back? Isn't there a way to make a particular font the font that I would always what I start with? All this setup means, is that the "default font" will always be whatever the last font that was being used was. There has to be a way to make a default font that I will always start with no matter what the last font that was being used was.
Illustrator gives you no option on font type, unless a file is open. Then, if you change the font and close the file, next time you start a file, it will go back to what is was to begin with. There has to be a way to change the default font for all of these programs to where the font always stays the same unless you change it. Mine is just set to use a weird font that I would probably never use.
I just never thought it would be that big of a deal to change default settings for the font.

Okay, I basically made three different documents and I made sure that I had everything chosen in each. I then saved the three to that file and they now appear in the list:
Settings for all 3:
72psi, 150psi and 300psi
Rulers Visable
Times New Roman
12pt
14.4pt
I then went in and started three new documents. I used the three different New Document Profile's that I made and they all had Rulers, their sizes were correct, but the font stayed Myriad Pro. Did I miss anything? And, Yes, I did change the font and the setting before I saved them in the New Document Profile.
One other thing, I did create a file in the folder, but it was spelled incorrectly. I then went into the folder, erased it and made a second. Then, I went to open it in IllustratorCS5 and it was still listed. I went to the file and it wasn't there anymore, but it was still listed in the New Document Profile. Is there a way to get it off of the list or is all I have to do is restart Illustrator?

How do you change the Default Font setting for a HP 6310 all-in-one?

I've had this printer for a couple of years and has worked great, but just recently, the main body of text is shadowed, like a shadow font. If i print from MS word and select my font it prints great, but the default font for printing emails and anything off of the web has this shadow

It has no style so seems to be beyond the user's control.
I've tried changing it to something else and redefining the Free Form style, but it doesn't apply when you create a new comment.
The closest you'll get to what you want is to have a Style that you like and apply it to every comment when you open it, using an FKey shortcut.

Unable to change default font in Themes

I have been trying unsuccessfully to change the default font in a theme. When I change the font in one of the master slides and click the Format/Advanced menu item, the "Save as Default for Current Theme" is grayed out, as all all the other options in the Advanced menu. I've tried the same thing from a slide in the presentation [not a master slide] and the same thing occurs.
Any ideas as to what is going on and how I can access this command? Otherwise I'll have to go through each and every master slide and make the change [and that might still not work]. Thanks for any help.

How do you change the default font in indesign cs3 on a mac?

Hi, I have tried closing all indesign docs and then changing the font in the font menu to helvetica (from times), then opening a new document and it still gives me [Times (TT)] when i draw a new text box and write something in it.
I have tried quitting indesign and reopening it and its still the old default font of [Times (TT)] - which is also not an available font on my machine.
I have also changed my basic paragraph style to helvetica from times, and it still doesnt change the default font when i open a new document.
When i open a new document in indesign it comes up with helvetica in the character pallet as the font, its just when i go to draw a text box and write something in it that it writes it in Times.

Is it possible you have more than one text frame object style, or that you have some default paragraph style set other than [Basic Paragraph]? If you are only editing Basic Paragraph and your default text frame is set to another syle, or you have another paragraph style selected when you begin typing, you might see this behavior.
If not, try resetting your preferences. Replacing InDesign Preferences
