How do I install fonts from Type On Call into Win 8.1

I have been using Trade Gothic Condensed as my default Excel font for many years. Each time I get a new computer I have been able to install the font in the new OS. I am having trouble doing that with Win 8.1. It says it is installed but does not appear in my list of Fonts, yet the Myriad font comes up fine.
Does anyone have any suggestions how to install the Trade Gothic font in my new Win 8.1 computer?
Many thanks
George

There are strings in the pliist file to add other Macs so that you can use some USB-DVD drives.
This is 5 page thread, so a little more 'meat' to it:
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3410900?start=60&tstart=0
And on PC booting Windows from a USB DVD to do the install is usually a piece of cake, sometimes you just need to specify that USB in the BIOS boot order and sometimes select via F12 (or another Fkey) and that is it.
What you have here seems to be everything and everyone is excluded unless there is a  mac-model device ID string that specifies yes.  An unnecessary hurdle.

    How do you install fonts from the net as the windows installer will only install them onto Word and I want them in PSE10

    >windows installer
    1-Windows puts fonts in a common fonts folder... which makes the fonts available to ALL software... at least if they are "correct" fonts (such as TrueType)

  • How to open or install fonts from a .suit file under Lion?

    How to open or install fonts from a .suit file under Lion? Thanks!

    although I believe I *have* used the .suit extension when I was creating suitcase files for TrueType fonts.
    You can get away with that because you haven't really changed anything. It's already a suitcase file, with a Type code of FFIL (the Creator code is mostly irrelevant). Adding .suit still tells the OS it's a suitcase.
    However, if you do something silly like change the Type code to LWFN (the outline portion of a PST1 set), then neither Font Book, or any other font manager knows what to do with it. It's recognizing the LWFN code, but the data structure of course doesn't match. The file is still a Mac legacy TrueType font. Suitcase Fusion 5 tosses this on the screen when I change the Type code to the wrong one:
    Changing the extension to something obviously wrong, like .otf produces the same message. It's trying to parse the data according to what the extension says it is, and nothing lines up.
    Trying to use .ttf or .ttc also doesn't work. A Mac legacy suitcase TrueType font is not built the same as a .ttf or .ttc font. Either is technically correct (it is a TrueType font), but that's the only similarity. What's happening in that case is Mac legacy TT fonts have all of the data in the resource fork. When you add .ttf or .ttc to the name, the OS and any font manager then tries to find the data in the data fork. Nothing there.

  • How do I update font from CS3 to CS5

    I have been doing all of my design work on CS3 and finally left the dark ages for CS5. I converted my CS3 to CS5 on my old computer and things worked fine. Now, I have moved to a new computer with CS5 and when I imported my documents I got the missing text notice. It is for Lucidia Calligraphy and perpetua titling bold. I'm assuming those were fonts in the CS3 package. The question is can I import those fonts from the old computer into the new computer with CS5?? If so, how exactly would one go about doing that??

    Neither of these fonts are installed with InDesign.
    Restart your old computer and open one of the documents that contain these fonts. Then use Type > Find Font to get the location of these fonts (click the More Info button in this dialog). Note down the location, then use your OS to navigate to it (Finder or Explorer, it doesn't matter). ... Uh, I don't think CS3 had this wonderful option to immediately open an OS window at the font location in the Find Font dialog (yes, that same function that's not functioning on Windows 7!), but if it does you can use that instead.
    Copy the font files on a removable device -- disk, USB stick -- or simply e-mail them to yourself. Then install them on your new system by following the approved steps for your specific OS.

  • How do I install fonts?

    I'm having trouble making X recognize a bunch of fonts that I have installed. I installed "ttf-apple-fonts" and I see the files in /usr/share/fonts/TTF along with other fonts that are recognized and show up in xfontsel. I installed artwiz-fonts as well, but they don't show up either, which I can understand since they are in /usr/share/fonts/artwiz-fonts, which isn't a "standard" font path.
    So, my question is: how do I install fonts? My xorg.conf is completely empty and I have no idea where to go from here. The wiki doesn't seem to be very up-to-date.

    Unfortunately, that too didn't work. I get even more confused because no matter how many times in a row I run fc-cache -fv (as root), it tells me it found new content every time.
    $ sudo fc-cache -fv
    /usr/share/fonts: caching, new cache contents: 0 fonts, 9 dirs
    /usr/share/fonts/100dpi: caching, new cache contents: 0 fonts, 0 dirs
    /usr/share/fonts/75dpi: caching, new cache contents: 0 fonts, 0 dirs
    /usr/share/fonts/TTF: caching, new cache contents: 78 fonts, 0 dirs
    /usr/share/fonts/Type1: caching, new cache contents: 35 fonts, 0 dirs

    /usr/share/fonts/encodings: caching, new cache contents: 0 fonts, 1 dirs
    /usr/share/fonts/encodings/large: caching, new cache contents: 0 fonts, 0 dirs
    /usr/share/fonts/misc: caching, new cache contents: 59 fonts, 0 dirs
    /usr/share/fonts/util: caching, new cache contents: 0 fonts, 0 dirs
    /home/skorpan/.fonts: skipping, no such directory
    /var/cache/fontconfig: cleaning cache directory
    /home/skorpan/.fontconfig: cleaning cache directory
    fc-cache: succeeded
    I did this AND restarted X several times and even tried a reboot, but still the same thing happens. The fonts just won't show up in xfontsel.

  • How do I install windows from USB on Macbook pro 3,1

    How do I install windows from USB on Macbook pro 3,1 ?
    My Superdrive is far from super anymore, So I managed to make an extern drive with both Snow Leopard Partition, Lion Partition (Since I thought Boot Camp 4,1 would bypass my problem), and Time Machine partition, Since I got 1. USB drive that works.
    - My general issue is that Boot camp Refuse to see the USB drive - (Many "how to"´s though show how they install windows perfectly through the USB port, but they use airbooks!, and somehow the Macbook will not ?)
    I fix that issue with >> rEFIt <<, that suddenly makes it possible for the Mac to see the USB drive, and partitions.
    Which was very strange since I could use an extern HD with the whole installation to start up wipe the whole disk, and then use my extern drive with partitions to install Snow Leopard and get everything as before with timemachine. Very smart with timemachine, but very lucky that I have a extern drive that runs the whole system and that I made the partitionsdrive before. DVD-drives are the past!
    Point: So the original system could see the Snow Leopard installation USB disk, but boot camp cannot find the USB drive ?????????
    After rEFIt I booted and then I got this error:
    Starting bootmgr.efi
    Error: Unsupported while loading bootmgr.efi
    I read it could be a problem with the Windows software, so I purchased an extern DVD drive, Used Disk Utility to make an image (.DMG), then used another program to convert the .dmg to .ISO.
    Then downloaded a trialversion of vmWare fusion, and installed windows from the iso. Everything worked brilliant, except and that is why I want to use boot camp, Running windows in another program while running the mac system is a little hacky and slow.
    Point: Nothing is wrong with the windows software, and windows runs fine.
    I then downloaded the Windows DVD / USB Tool, reformatted a USB drive as Master Boot Partition, MS-Dos Fat partition, then after lots of struggling got Vmware, windows to recognise the USB drive. And installed the windows software on the USB drive, as all the walkthroughs recommend.
    Then I tried for "fun"! to just install windows form the extern USB drive, and with rEFIt it will see the drive and start to do something, but then when it starts to boot, the screen just turns into black and nothing happens, and you can see the drive does NOTHING. (I think it is because I only have 1 USB drive and the Extern DVD drive does not get enough power, but again the mac refuse to see the USB drive unless it is a Snow Leopard installation USB-drive!
    Well trying to install Windows Ultimate 64 Bit, which worked great in vmware, because that program installed from the .ISO file that I had on the desktop, but trying with Boot Camp did not get anywhere, what kind of **** program is this boot camp anyway!?, but then I try the new USB disk with windows made from windows, thorugh rEFIt, it sees the disk and then starts and then I get this ERROR:
    rEFIt - Booting Legacy OS
    Starting legacy loader
    Using load option ´USB´
    Error: Not found returned from legacy loader
    Error: Not found from LocateDevicePath
    (x 9 times)
    Error: Load Error while (re)opening our installation volume
    The firmware refused to boot from the selected volume. Note that external hard drives are not well-supported by Apple´s firmware for legacy OS booting
    (Hey Apple please send out a updated firmware that fix this issue?!)
    So how do I do it ? - or is the only option to fix the partition running the system from the extern disk. Format the whole drive in 2 from the "bottom" and install windows and then afterwards install Mac on the other partition ?  Or just run windows on the mac and forget about mac software ? What a stupid solution...

    hello everyone!  i have a new macbook pro and i want to download aperture.  my app store says it is already installed (on my old macbook pro).  how do i install aperture from the app store in this instance please?

    Are yoy sure that Apeture is not in the Applications folder of the new system? If it is move it to the trash and the App Store will let you download Aperture from it.
    You will need to make sure you use the same Apple ID you used to purchase it in the past.

  • How do I install PS from CS 4 discs?

    Ok, this may be the dumbest question of the day.
    I have student version of CS 4 with three discs - App 2, Content and Learning.
    I put each of the first two in the CD drive and it spins but no install message.
    I look at the top files: AUTORUN & an icon but they do not execute.
    I go down into the follders below and I find an install PS program.
    When I execute it, it says I need to use Setup.exe.
    I search the disc for setup.exe and there is none.
    So, how do I install PS from CS 4 discs?
    Thanks,
    Frank

    Frank,
    Are you inserting the first disc?
    Can you click on AutoRun and launch that manually?
    Are there any executables in the root folder? If not, look in the Language folders, say US En, or whatever you are going to want to install as.
    If you still cannot find any executable, can you post a screen-cap of your #1 Disc open in Windows Explorer/My Computer?
    Also, this is a general CHECKLIST for installing most Adobe programs.
    Good luck,
    Hunt

    You don't. The Mac version of Pages works on Macs - not on iPad.

  • How do I install software from cd-rom onto my IdeaPad S10?

    I just received my IdeaPad S10.  How do I install software from a cd-rom onto it?  I tried putting my cd-rom in my regular laptop and copying it onto a flash drive and then copying it to the IdeaPad.  The installation starts, then I get a message that installation has stopped because the installation has been corrupted.  Any easy ways to install software?

    Here's what you can do.
    Download virtual Clone drive (freeware) from here http://www.slysoft.com/en/download.html  install it on your S10.
    Now on your destop, make a backup ISO of your software CD or DVD. 
    I use this http://isorecorder.alexfeinman.com/isorecorder.htm it integrates with explorer on the right click menu. There are other solutions also.
    Once your ISO is created you can copy it to your S10 via network, usb key, etc, and mount it as a drive letter with Virtual CLone drive.
    Hope that helps.
