HT2435 My Font Book, is super slow, where should the fonts be to make it faster.

My Font Book, is super slow, it used to be ok but after I had to reset my computer is too slow, like really slow! I dont know if having users in my computer and do the fact that makes different folder locations for fonts might be the problem. And if so, were should they go to help the program be faster?

  • I can see a font from a previous project in a different program in Font Book and Illustrator is not finding the font when I open the file.

    I am using Adobe Creative Cloud and have the new updates installed. The file was created in Artbook, but saved as a PDF. When Illustrator opens it says it does not recognize the variants (regular extended, light extended) of the main font (regular) which it does recognize. Any Clues on this front?
    The font Skia-Regular_Extended is missing.  Affected text will be displayed using a substitute font.
    The font Skia-Regular_Light-Extended is missing.  Affected text will be displayed using a substitute font.
    To preserve appearance, some text has been outlined.

    Have you searched the font menu for the name of the font?
    In a PDF the font might also have been renamed.
    If the font is there, but under a different name, you'll have to reapply it to the text.

  • Font book - window pop up that says bad font

    So I got my mac back after the harddrive was erased so it was brand new. I uploaded a bunch of fonts from before and I was trying to install them all. Then my computer got slower and when I would start my mac a window would pop up saying BAD FONT so I would go to the direct place and erase the font.
    Is there a way to restart font book to its old settings before installing font?
    or know how to find all bad fonts?
    I validated the file from library-fonts and my font folder i brought in and erased the ones that had a x saying error but I still get the window.
    and what is the normal amount of fonts we can have active.
    also when I click on disable I don't see a difference.
    I just erased the font folder I had brought in and there is no different in the amount of fonts in font book.
    sorry for the questions, hope I make sense.
    thanks
    I had posted this in macbook pro but cmcsk told me about posting here in hopes that I could get more help.

    Here's a great article for you . . .
    It's a little long, but the most important stuff about the fonts you need
    is in the first 25% of the article. The article, by Kurt Lang, will tell you which fonts you really need, etc.
    http://www.jklstudios.com/misc/osxfonts.html
    The only thing still giving me pause, is you statement that you're clicking on the "Mac HD
    from the computer." If you are seeing the icon the Mac, and the word "computer" totally
    within the Font Book pane, then that's fine to delete fonts marked with a warning.
    Just make sure you read the beginning of the article first, OK?

  • What is font book used for? I read the description but still unsure. Does it contain fonts that are not already on the computer

    What can I use font book for? I read the description but still don't get it. Does it contain fonts that are not already installed on my new Mac? Thanks.

    Disabling (turning off) a font will make it unavailable for use in any font menu. You can alwasy enable the font(s) again - they're not gone permanantly. DON'T disable System fonts, though -> that's just asking for trouble.
    Here's -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JdR6-4lnF5A - a good video tutorial about using Font Book.

  • When trying to upload a PDF to an interactive site I get the announcement:"The attached PDF file references a non-embedded font Tahoma. Please remove file, embed the font and reattach." How do I embed this, or in fact any other font ?

    When trying to upload a PDF to an interactive site I get the announcement: "The attached PDF file references a non-embedded font Tahoma. Please remove file, embed the font and reattach."
    I could not get rid of the Tahoma font in the WORD file.
    How do I embed this, or in fact any other font ?

    Thank you very much !
    Indeed, I was unaware of the enormous number of options that can be selected when converting a WORD file to PDF.
    I went thru the settings and found the right one for embedding the fonts.
    Thanks again !

    Yep - I was only looking at Text Size.
    But still, not sure what the deal is. The "1" is just as readable as any other number on the keyboard regardless.

  • Where is the best place to make a slideshow with pictures and music on a mac?

    Where is the best place to make a slideshow with pictures and music on Macbook Pro?

    There are many ways to produce slide shows using iPhoto, iMovie or iDVD and some limit the number of photos you can use (iDVD has a 99 chapter (slide) limitation).
    If what you want is what I want, namely to be able to use high resolution photos (even 300 dpi tiff files), to pan and zoom individual photos, use a variety of transitions, to add and edit music or commentary, place text exactly where you want it, and to end up with a DVD that looks good on both your Mac and a TV - in other words end up with and end result that does not look like an old fashioned slide show from a projector - you may be interested in how I do it. You don't have to do it my way, but the following may be food for thought!
    Firstly you need proper software to assemble the photos, decide on the duration of each, the transitions you want to use, and how to pan and zoom individual photos where required, and add proper titles. For this I use Photo to Movie. You can read about what it can do on their website:
    http://www.lqgraphics.com/software/phototomovie.php
    (Other users here use the alternative FotoMagico:  http://www.boinx.com/fotomagico/homevspro/ which you may prefer - I have no experience with it.)
    Neither of these are freeware, but are worth the investment if you are going to do a lot of slide shows. Read about them in detail, then decide which one you feel is best suited to your needs.
    Once you have timed and arranged and manipulated the photos to your liking in Photo to Movie, it exports the file to iMovie  as a DV stream. You can add music in Photo to Movie, but I prefer doing this in iMovie where it is easier to edit. You can now further edit the slide show in iMovie just as you would a movie, including adding other video clips, then send it to iDVD 7, or Toast,  for burning.
    You will be pleasantly surprised at how professional the results can be!
    To simply create a slide show in iDVD 7 onwards from images in iPhoto or stored in other places on your hard disk or a connected server, look here:

  • Architecture Q. : Where should the ODI Repository Database be installed ?

    Hi all,
    Where should the repository ODI database be installed
    => on the same server as the source database one or ?
    => on the same server as the target database one
    Thanks for your answers
    Edited by: Meapri on Feb 26, 2009 6:59 AM

    Hi Shib,
    Maybe I could agree with you if you only use ODI for DW, for instance.
    If you think about data integration, no matter what kind of system, even at transactional system, or datamart extract/load the concept of "source and target" can be any of the RDBMS at company.
    What I'm defending is that in a complex environment, where ODI is the company *"data veins"*, the concept of source and target became complex too and, in my opinion, is not possible to decide where the repository should stay just by the use of those concepts.

  • Where should the ODI agent be

    Where should the ODI agent be. In Source server or target server
    app

    Well when we say the Target Location we generally means the Target Database or the Data warehouse location , since data needs to pass through the Target Server (target Database ) ,as i have mentioned before in my reply the target Tables or Database is how generally where the C$ ,i$ and various $ tables and also finally the Insert /Update takes place at the Target. When the data is there in one server ,the time for the agent to move data gets reduced and thus saved time and Efficiency.
    although this is not an hard and Fast rule its just an advisable practice. There are some Architecture where the ODI is installed in another Server and the Target Database is located in another Server. Some of them goes for creating the Agent at the Server where ODI is installed and so ODI communicates back and forth to in both the Server for its ELT operation.
    Again there are some who creates Agent even in the Source and Target , when there are huge loads needs to be fetched and processed.
    coming back to your question when you my machine , are you talking about your personal Desktop or Laptop Machine . ? In that case i guess your Target and Source and again the Agent created will be once Machine itself.
    Let me know if you require any more information or clarification .

  • How do I get fonts in my font book to a place where I can use them?

    I have some Hebrew fonts in my font book but I don't know how to make them useable. I don't even know how to ask 'help' how to get them out. Meanwhile the Japanese fonts and the Chinese fonts are readily available.

    I have a similar problem except I can't use any other fonts other than roman characters- all I want is to type in simplified chinese.
    As with any other language, and just explained above for Hebrew, you go to system prefs/international/input menu and check the box for the simplified chinese input method you want to use, plus the box for Show Input Menu in Finder. Then in the "flag" menu at the top right of the Finder you select Chinese and type.
    For full info on the various SC IM's, see the HELP in OS X or this site:
    http://www.yale.edu/chinesemac/pages/osx5.html#start
    If you have any questions, just ask again.
