I have some fonts showing up in Japanese(?)

I just installed illustrator from CC. First object I insert and some fonts are named in English but have Japanese characters instead of "sample"
Other fonts are all Japanese.
I checked edit > preferences > type.
There is no English option of any kind .Just Display East Asian Options (Unchecked) and show Indic options (also unchecked).
All UI elements are in English.
Anyone have a fix for this?

Which fonts are they, can we see a screenshto? Are they actually Asian?
Even though you install Windows and Adobe Creative Suite in English, you are still bombarded with many foreign fonts you have to manually uninstall too reduce the length of your font list.
try edit >> preferences >>type >> show font names in English

  • I recently bought and installed Adobe InDesign CS4. It does not have some fonts I want, e.g., Papyru

         I recently bought and installed Adobe InDesign CS4. It does not have some fonts I want, e.g., Papyrus Bold. I copied it from the Windows XP Fonts folder into the InDesign Font folder, which, for starters, was empty (even though when I open the InDesign application its inherent fonts are available). I have gone to online Help and tried different things, but I still cannot get Papyrus Bold when I open my file.
         Where are the InDesign fonts stored, if not in the InDesign Fonts folder?
         How can I make the fonts that are in my Windows XP to be available in InDesign?
         Thank you.
         Andrew

         Peter,
         Thanks for your quick reply.
         I don’t see why there should be a problem with the Papyrus font I copied from Windows, since it works just fine in Word.
    It is listed in the Windows XP/Fonts folder as Open Type, although in brackets beneath it has “True Type.”
         Note: the Adobe InDesign Fonts folder was empty when I first viewed it (except for my attempted copies of Papyrus and a couple of Lucidas). Where are the inherent InDesign fonts stored, if not there?
         Thanks again for your attention.

  • Why are certain fonts showing up in Japanese in Illustrator CS6

    In Illustrator CS5, I would use a font called Kozuka Mincho Pro/EL.  Illustrator's font selector would show the font with the English name.  I'm on a Mac running 10.7.4 and Font Book shows me the font with the English name as well.  After upgrading to CS6, the font name in Illustrator is being displayed in Japanese.  Unfortunately, I don't read Japanese.  Is there some way to correct this on my end or is there a bug in Illustrator CS6?

    Hi D Holcomb
    If you acess Illustrator > Preferences > Type section there´s a field you can enable called Show font names in English.
    If you enable this option...does the Kozuka font continue to be showed in japanese?
    Best Regards

  • Some fonts are in library fonts folder,  but not in font book or in illustrator

    imac/tiger/illustrator11
    So I have some fonts that are in library>fonts but do not appear in font book or illustrator font list
    also no fonts names listed in attributes, when you highlight font in the artwork, (but does list whether it is regular/bold!)
    -also when I go about illustrator(11) it gives me info but locks program and have to force quit

    Type 1 (PostScript) fonts require 2 files to make them work.
    The FFIL files are screen fonts which load into the OS/programs in order to show up in the menus. They should show up as Font Suitcase in the KIND column of the finder. You will also need the corresponding LWFN file which is the postscript outline file. That will show up as Postscript Type 1 outline font in the KIND column of the finder. That is used to render the font on screen and output it.
    OSX needs both of those in the same location in order to work correctly. Needing two pieces is just part of the problem. The names of the files are also different. The PostScript parts usually having abreviated names.
    And it's more complex than that. One FFIL file actually may have many screen fonts inside it for the different variations of the font family. Then you will need to make sure you have separate LWFN files for all of those.
    I know it's confusing. The 2-piece font just asks for problems. Unfortunately that is how Adobe invented them 20+ years ago.
    OSX makes it harder by not letting you open the FFIL file to see what's inside. In OS 9 and earlier you could open the suitcases and add or remove screen fonts - even add unrelated fonts all to the same suitcase
    Well I've rambled enough about Type one Fonts. I hope my first few paragraphs clear up some of it for you.

  • Some fonts have wrong "internal names," won't display properly in font menu

    Several fonts which I have acquired over the years have a peculiar but bothersome problem.
    The fonts' "file names" in the Finder are perfectly fine, and the files are named what they're supposed to be named. And when the fonts are "installed," they work perfectly fine in all applications, as they are supposed to. But here's the problem: the fonts are mis-named in each application's "font menu." In my case, most of the font names (which are of the standard English alphabet and have standard English font titles) instead appear listed as a long string of Chinese characters.
    As a random example, a font called "Holiday Ranch" made by FontDiner is not listed alphabetically between "Hoefler" and "Impact" in my font menus, where it ought to be, but instead is listed at the end of the font menu list, after "Zapfino," as a long string of Chinese characters. This wouldn't be such a problem if there were only one or two fonts misnamed this way, but when (as I do) you have 25 fonts at the bottom of your font list, all of which are long strings of incomprehensible characters, then it becomes a problem indeed.
    The fonts come from a variety of sources, so it can't be a flaw in just one company's coding. I contacted (as per the example above) FontDiner, but so far they have no response. But for other mis-named fonts in my collection, I don't even know who designed them or where they came from, so I can't ask the designer for a solution.
    Keep in mind that all of the fonts work perfectly fine, once I've tracked them down in the big morass of hard-to-find misnamed fonts at the bottom of my font menus. They work in all Apple applications like TextEdit, they work in Adobe products like Illustrator, they work in MSWord -- they work everywhere. The only issue is the naming.
    Also, the file names are all correct. In the example above, the file name for "Holiday Ranch" is "Holiday Ranch.ttf". And when I inspect the font with Linotype's "FontExplorer X," it is listed properly as "Holiday Ranch." But here's the key: When I open the font file in Apple's "Font Book" (v.2.2.1), the name is indeed listed there as a long string of Chinese characters, and when I install it onto my computer using Font Book, it unfortunately uses that name.
    I've tried downloading a wide variety of "font tool" programs, but none have been able to fix this problem.
    I also tried (using FontExplorer X) "Cleaning system font caches" and "Cleaning application font caches" and restarting, but that had no effect whatsoever. I don't think it's an error on the part of OSX, I think that the fonts are simply misnamed internally, or that something went awry when the font designer converted the fonts from one format to another, or something like that.
    I think the simplest solution would be to just re-name the fonts internally. But how? I can't find a way to do it. Even the optimistically-named freeware program "Font Renamer" did not change the internal names.
    Has anyone else ever experienced this problem, and if so, how can it be fixed? Thanks.

    As for free downloads to play with: unfortunately, the FontDiner ones are all commercial and thus not free...
    They do have some free fonts. At the bottom of the first page (after the lead in page), click the "Free Silverware" link at the bottom. The fonts that come up on that page are all free.
    I downloaded four of those fonts at random. All work as expected. That doesn't prove though that the Holiday Ranch font doesn't have something wrong with it.
    Kurt, as I noted above, I already did empty all font cache files and restart. Unfortunately, that did not fix the problem.
    Oops! Sorry, missed that.
    So I think the problem is not that there's anything wrong with my OS, but rather that the person who made the font simply goofed when giving it a name!
    It seems to point that way, but you're seeing the issue across fonts from different vendors. I would believe it's either the OS, or Font Book itself.
    Your tagline shows you're running 10.6.4. Download and reinstall the 10.6.4 Combo updater. It's surprising how many problems go away when applying the combos.

  • Some fonts have become tiny and pale blue

    Example: When I view my online banking, my personal information is presented in a tiny font, which is also too pale to read, pale blue. When I am ordering something online, the fill-in boxes and what I type in them are tiny and pale blue. When I shopped on Drugstore.com, I had to read with a magnifying glass about their products. I have cleaned the registry and tried to find ways to adjust the font, but since not everything on the desktop is tiny and pale blue, I 've had no effect at all. Incoming email is fine, as is outgoing email. Word documents are fine.

    Check the default font and color settings (screenshot: [[Some text shows up bold after upgrade]])

  • Anyone have an issue where a font shows in the font list in Photoshop/Illustrator but not in Flash?

    Anyone have an issue where a font shows in the font list in Photoshop/Illustrator but not in Flash?
    I'm not 100% sure but i may have had flash open when installing, i then uninstalled the font and then reinstalled the font. I even tried going from an OTF font to a TTF font.
    No luck.
    Do I need to do some sort of font cache clearing?
    -Line
    I'm using Adobe CS6 Flash, Photoshop and Illustrator on MAC OSX

    Yes. It's rare, but some fonts do not play well with Flash. Flash seems to have a more strict method of evaluating a font that can be imported. This is, in my opinion, probably because Flash needs to create a faux version of a font when it is imported. There may be some information that is either missing or not acceptable to Flash in a particular font and so Flash won't allow it to be used - even if you're not going to import that font.

    Hello,  I have songs that show they are "Waiting" for download from the cloud but they are greyed out.  Some songs in one album are done others in the same album will not download. It is not a time function because i have been working on this for weeks. I have allowed my compter to run for days and the songs are still not accessible.  I have a Match subscription and Match is working.  If I click on the "Genre" link the greyed out songs show that they are ready for download from the cloud but I cannot download them.  I have downloaded over 1500 other songs, so I am trying to understand what is going on here. I would appreciate any help anyone can give me.
    Thanks

    I did think about that and if I have to I will do that, however there are about 50 songs. I have closed and reopened iTunes several times and I am sure that I have the latest version. It fails right away but I can click on the cloud download icon and download the song that it failed on ... therefore it is not that song "or any one song" causing the issue. Any ideas?

  • Hi, I have this green mark (with pointing arrow looks like a link) on some words show on my window screen when I open a web page, I wonder if it is a virus link or such. Need help how to get rid of it. Thanks

    Hi, I have this green mark (with pointing arrow looks like a link) on some words show on my window screen when I open a web page, I wonder if it is a virus link or such. Need help how to get rid of it. Here's the example:
    WING
    GAMES
    MAJORITY
    Thanks

    If the third link you posted (the link containing the word "majority") does not look like the following then you inadvertently installed adware.
    That particular page should resemble the following:
    The word "majority" in the third paragraph should not be a link and should not have the green icon associated with it.
    To learn how this may have occurred, and how to prevent it from occurring in the future, read How to install adware
    Most so-called "news" websites are nothing more than entertainment outlets that cater to prurient interests, and contain advertisements that leave the user about three clicks away from installing junk. If you decide to frequent those websites, Safari's "Reader" feature helps minimize that exposure.
    Try it:

    Have made some slide show libraries on publisher then saved as jpg however when I sync through itunes to my ipad the previous import is over written. Can anyone offer a solution. Thanks

    I have tried much of the same - still no joy.
    I also reported it as a bug to Apple although the response page said "we can't reply to messages"
    For now I have had to turn off auto syncing and keep plugging and unplugging until the device is recognised correctly - about 1 in 10.
    In my email to apple I also listed the contents of the xml file that keeps track of the devices that iTunes has seen:
    When seen as an ipad:
    <dict>
    <key>Connected</key>

    When seen as an iPhone:
    <dict>
    <key>Connected</key>
    <date>2010-06-08T21:39:07Z</date>
    <key>Device Class</key>

    <key>Updater Family ID</key>
    <integer>10006</integer>
    <key>Use Count</key>
    <integer>22</integer>
    </dict>
    You will see from the Use Count that these are adjacent connections, ie plugged in as ipad then as iphone. Apart from the device class, everything else is the same.

  • Flash CS3 doesn't show some fonts.

    Some fonts that I'm trying to use in Flash CS3 aren't showing
    up. Specifically, these fonts are Peter Saville's New Order line of
    different typefaces. Font Book only shows errors for one of the
    fonts (N.O.– Movement). This is the specific font I want to
    use in CS3, but there are other N.O. fonts that I could substitute
    with, if I could get Flash CS3 to recognize them.
    Does Flash inspect fonts in loading to determine their
    usability? If someone has a solution, I'd really like to hear it.
    Thank you.

    I asked about this once. Some newsgroup user told me the
    fonts wouldn't display within flash because the font package did
    not include font outlines.
    Hope this helps,
    Joe
