How to install Fonts into Adobe Illustrator

I am using a computer that runs on Snow Leopard 10.6.8
Hi there I want to know how to install new Fonts / Typefaces into Adobe Illustrator CS3?
I am also curious as to how I would install fonts on other Adobe CS applications?
All help, links, and resources much appreciated.

I just dragged and dropped the downloaded ".tff" font files into in Font Book icon in theDock and a new window popped up and just click "Install Font" button.
That works, too. Sets are, more than anything else, just a way to organize your fonts by project. By dropping the font in, it should now be listed in one of the standard headings like "Computer".
The new fonts have automatically loaded into Adobe Illustrator CS3 without having to close it.
Better apps will see when fonts have been enabled or disabled without having to close and restart them. Microsoft Word (and likely the entire Office suite) does not.

I found in the installation of the ADS configuration Guide this informations.
Adobe document services require access to fonts that are installed with the Font Manager Module. This module contains a number of Adobe bundled fonts installed in /usr/sap//j2ee/os_libs/adssap/FontManagerService/fonts/adobe.
You can also add fonts obtained from other vendors. The types of fonts you can add are OpenType® (.otf), TrueType® (.ttf), and PostScript® Type 1 (.pfb/.pfm).
So the question is how can i install new fonts so as to use in Adobe Forms?
I will appreciate any help and documentations about.
Thank you,

Create a subdirectory called fonts below the

Create a subdirectory called customer below the fonts directory created in the previous step
Copy your font file(s) into the customer directory
Restart the "Document Services Font Manager" for the changes to take effect.Use Visual Admin on the Adobe Document server

Fonts are handled by your operating system and installed through the respective System Control panel (Windows) or Fontbook (Mac). On Windows simply type "Fonts" in the search bar in the start menu and when you open the panel/ folder use File --> Add Font. On Mac the procedures are similar, you just need to find the Fontbook app in Applications:Utilities.

How can I export an Adobe illustrator CC .AI file to a DWG or DXF file suitable for SolidWorks?

Hi
Can anyone help?
How can I export an Adobe illustrator CC .AI file to a DWG or DXF file, without SolidWorks enlarging the file & converting every curve into hundreds of short little straight lines rather than a single continuous line/s.
I have made sure the file is ungrouped or has any compound paths or colours.
Opening it in Autocad 2010 still converts the DWG file into hundreds of short little straight lines!
The file is needed to laser cut out an aluminium shape using SolidWorks 2008 (Metal soft)?
Formats they can handle are:
DWG, DXF, IGES, IGA
There must be a way to export it without re-drawing the whole design in Soildworks again!!??
Can anyone help?
INCA

Not really. This is a limitation you will have to live with. Unless you are extremely careful, most paths will be converted to polyline segments by AI and in particular in AI CC this is somehow busted, so it happens more often. You might have much more luck opening a native AI file in DraftSight or a 2D CAD program like TurboCAD and exporting a DWG or 2D IGES/ STEP file from there. The sizing issue is a different matter, but without knowing what units you actualyl used, nobody can advise.

Hello guys..does anybody know how to install and use adobe master collection with the new lion?
I need to use Flash and illustratore, but apparently those programmes are incompatible with the new operative sistem...
I am a new mac users and I'd like to know if there are other similar programmes I can use with lion!

well dude I can only let you know that as I work with those programme I don't have to pay for it is my company that pays the programme I whant to use( that's why I was asking if there where other programmes ..that I could use with lion insted that Illustrator and Flash!)..I know Adobe since 2005 and I can say that Adobs products are very good...I think that if it's an Adobe probleme or fault ..they will solve it very soon...but unfortunally I have the impression that after Jobs passed away Appel decided to change politics..and everything started to go very bad! (see FCP X)..
good luck with apple dude..
Where is the Apple problem? I have CS4 and CS5 running perfectly fine on my Macbook Pro. Installed 5 after Lion upgrade. Worth every cent. Adobe did have some catching up to do with Lion but with the CS5.5 update all runs fine. But not yours. So it is a problem with the Lion OS? You say you have been with Adobe since 2005. So you would be aware of all the other issues that Adobe had catching up with past Oss in Mac and Windows then. They get it right, but it is up to them. It is not up to Apple, nor Microsoft for that matter, to run around and check that every software developer in the world is running their business properly.
And what has politics got to do with anything. Some people just have to blame Software for their poor Hardware maintainence of failure of the same.
<The only think I can really do is to go back on my old windows...give back this orrible lap top and ask for my money back!>
Great suggestion. You should go with that one, but good luck getting a refund.

How to get audio into Adobe Premiere Elements 12?

How to get audio into Adobe Premiere Elements 12?
I have filmed an air show with a very good camera JVC pro
And when I pick up the clips in Adobe Premiere Elements 12, it works too, but only without sound.
I think I tried everything for 4 days now.
Sound in my computer works perfectly
I go to where the video files are located and try to run them in VLC or in Nero Kwik so it works fine with both audio and video.
I have checked the sound card.
Yes, I have tried everything so now I'm so tired of this lousy so I'm ready to throw this program at the dump.
It's not normal if you will keep on producing audio for over 4 days at Adobe
The old Elements 9 worked fine. Offer some of would consider developing it again. I do not know how I should do.
My name is Thore Hult
live in Karlshamn in Sweden

Thore Hult
On what computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 12 working on? Have you updated it from 12 to 12.1 Update using an opened project's Help Menu/Update. If not, please do so.
For your immediate problem.
What is the model/settings for the JVC camera that recorded you video. I want to get at the properties of your source video including the file extension.
Since you are getting video, but no audio, please download and install the free codec utility named GSpot to see what is shows
for your Audio Name and Status.
http://www.headbands.com/gspot/
The other properties of the file there would also be of interest.
When you import your source file into the project, do you see any "conforming" activity going in a progress bar at the bottom right corner of the workspace?
If so, do you wait for it to complete before you move forward in the project?
Can you get sound in any of your Premiere Elements projects with this current JVC file or other?
Can we assume that your troubleshooting has included checking
a. Volume control within the project
b. Edit Menu/Preferences/Audio Hardware ASIO
Let us start here and then we can decide what next if necessary.
Thanks.

Who knows how to install fonts CS5 w/win xp?

I am running Adobe Web Premium CS5 on a Windows XP sp3 machine.
I want to install some fonts for the CS to utilize and load on startup. Previously, with CS4, all I had to do was place the font files in the following folder
C:\program files\common files\adobe\fonts\
What is the equivalent folder when running CS5 in WinXP?
I cannot install fonts into the system fonts folder, due to access restrictions (i am a non-administrator).
There is also a performance advantage to this, as the fonts in the above folder are not indexed by the OS.
Thank you for any help!

That feature is dead. Installing fonts in the system folder is mandatory.

Import Existing Cartoon Into Adobe Illustrator

I found a cartoon on the internet that has given me an idea for a cartoon that I want to do for a friend. Is there a way that I can import this cartoon into Adobe Illustrator and then proceed to alter it to suit my own purposes? I need to squeeze it, stretch it, subtract from it, add to it, and generally change it until I come up with a completely different cartoon of my own.
I have tried placing the original art on a surface in Adobe Illustrator, but the Adobe tools have no effect on it whatsoever. I am unable to change anything. All I want to do is use the nucleus of an idea and expand upon it to the point that it no longer has any resemblance to the original.

Ok, I now see you dont know much about computers and all that.
How to make a screenshot:
1. Press the Print Screen [sometimes also shown as Prt Scr] button on your keyboard.
2. Open Microsoft Paint.
3. Goto Edit > and choose Paste.
4. Goto File > Save.
5. Choose where you want to save the file.
6. Choose to Save the file as: JPEG.
7. Type a filename, and save press Save.
8. Go to www.tinypic.com and press the Browse button and select your image file, which you saved 1 steps ago.
9. Press the big upload button.
10. Goto the box which says Direct link, select the text inside and Right-Click > Copy
11. Paste that link here.
Then we can continue.
However, I think you need to learn the basics of Illustrator first, as you dont know the basic functions very well.
Here are some nice videos: http://tv.adobe.com/show/learn-illustrator-cs4/

Pasting from Microsoft Word into Adobe Illustrator...problem

Hello gang, I'm a professional comic book letterer and I recently decided to upgrade from using TextEdit to using Microsoft Word for all of my script copy pasting that I have to do.
In TextEdit when I copy a page from a comic script it will then paste into Adobe Illustrator beautifully. Retains line breaks and formatting really well (doesn't remember bolds or italics, but oh well). However, when I paste from the Word version of the same script, all the line breaks disapear, leaving me with a big square block of text, making it hard for me to easily find dialogue to use on the page.
Does anyone have a solution for this? Is this a known issue with Word? I can't seem to find anything about it on the net.
I'm using Word 11 for Mac version 14.2.1 I think it is and Adobe Illustrator CS3 for Mac.
Running Snow Leopard on a MacBook Pro for what that's worth. Verion 10.6.8
thanks,

When I tried to place a 12 pages Word doc in Illustrator CS5, the same way told by John_Danek, I could see a small + sign on the bottom right corner of the text box. If you double click that text box, you can see page 2 of the doc. Similarly, you can view all the pages of your Word doc in Illie.
OR
If save your content in a PDF and then place the PDF in Illustrtaor. This will help you retain formatting as well as will allow you selecting page numbers of your document you want to place.

Can't copy image from Adobe Reader into Adobe Illustrator

I am attempting to copy an image from a document in Adobe Reader 8 into Adobe Illustrator CS3. When I try this I get this message in Illustrator:
"Quicktime^TM and a decompressor are needed to see this picture."
I am running OSX 10.5.2, with Quicktime Player 7.4.1. I just purchased and registered Quicktime Pro but that has not helped.
What I am trying to do is use the image select tool in Reader to select an illustration out of a long PDF document so just opening the PDF in Illustrator is not convenient, nor is extracting the image, saving it in another format and then importing it. Before I upgraded, I was running Illustrator 10 on MAC OS X10.3. I could use the image select tool in Adobe Reader to copy an image to the clipboard, and then paste that image into in Illustrator document. Very convenient. For some reason that no longer works with Illustrator CS3 and OS X 10.5.

"Try opening the document in Illustrator. There will options for importing different pages etc."
I can do that, but it is for my purposes much more convenient to do what I used to be able to do: open a document in Reader, scroll down through the document to find the image I want, select only that image (not the entire page) and then paste it into an already-open Illustrator document. Now what I have to do is 1. use Reader to find the image in the document and note the page 2. Open that page of the document in Illustrator and then 3. copy that page into the illustrator document I am working on and 4. crop to just get the image.

If you want to embed videos in your muse site, without using a service like youtube or vimeo, then you will need to manually upload the video files on the server and use them via the video tag available in html5, HTML5 Video
To insert the video tags in your muse pages, you will need to use the 'Object -> Insert HTML' option.
Since this option is not available in Muse, out of the box, I will recommend that you post this on our ideas section over here, https://forums.adobe.com/community/muse/ideas, and let our devs team know of this requirement.
