IDD not loading fonts that are installed on computer

My computer crashed last week and I have re-installed all CS5.5 programs. All of our IDD files use Lucida Sans (regular, italic, demibold, and demibold italic). These fonts are installed on the computer (Windows 7 - 64) but IDD is not seeing the italic or the demibold italic. I've deleted and re-installed several times. Illustrator seems to open oblique and demibold oblique but I don't even have them installed. I have tried to find the shared program files mentioned in the trouble shooting but can't find and I've even searched through "hidden files." If I open one of our old packaged files, it opens with the right fonts. I even used those packaged fonts to re-install onto my computer but the new IDD files or non-packaged files are still not seeing the two missing fonts. The fonts ARE available in word, etc. HELP!

I noticed that I could open the IDD files from the server (as opposed to on my computer) and they would open with Lucida Sans oblique/demibold oblique instead of the italic/demibold italic. For all intents and purposes, it's the same thing. So I uninstalled the fonts from my computer one more time and installed fonts from the server. Now at least all four font styles open on my computer. I'll have to replace all "italics" with "oblique" but at least I can function. So I suspect it has something to do with the AdobdeFnt13.1st files AND the windows security update.
Thank you ALL so much for your help.

  • Freehand telling me fonts (that are installed) are not.

    Hi there
    I'm new to this forum but have a very important issue that I desperately need help with. I had to do an archive install recently as my machine wasn't opening any programs as a result of a crash during a software update. The computer has since been in many ways better and faster than before, all except a font issue with freehand mx (11.0.2). The problem is this: whenever I open a document it tells me that several of the fonts are not installed. I use 'font book' as a type manager and all the fonts are active within the program. Illustrator and Photoshop have no problem reading the same fonts that Freehand tells me are not installed. I've tried reloading Freehand a few times and reloading the fonts too. I downloaded the freehand update which didn't help either. I have quite a few fonts active but for some reason it tells me that about 30 or so are not installed which they obviously are. This is the first time I've ever had an issue like this with freehand having used this version and it's predecessors for a number of years. I run leopard 10.5.8 on my machine. I use illustrator and freehand a lot however most of my work is still in freehand so this potentially posses a very large problem.
    Please can anyone offer me some light on this matter.
    Thanks

    Hi Mark
    Thanks for your help so far,
    Unfortunately freehand itself is telling me several fonts, some new ones but even very straight forward ones like verdana, Trebuchet ms, windings etc. aren't installed. If I open about 70% of previous work it says the same thing. This also happens if it's a new document entirely (some fonts are not in the list). All the fonts show up in Photoshop and Illustrator however. I tried reloading the fonts again and reloading Freehand and the update just to make sure.
    I'm still very stumped

    Subject: Freehand telling me fonts (that are installed) are not.
    OK this info helps, Al.
    So, create a new Freehand document and type in some text and choose the problem fonts from the font list. If these show up OK in the new FH file, than there is a corruption in your old file somewhere. If not, try these fonts in other applications to make sure they indeed work.
    What I would do is create a new FH file at the same size and specs as your old file. Then copy/paste the art from the old one onto the new one and see if the fonts show up.
    If not, then try the non-text elements only along with the text blocks that do show up correctly. The worst that can happen is copy paste the old text into the new file and reformat it to the fonts that wouldn't show up before. Basically using a clean, uncorrupted file.
    Let me know what happens.

  • My fonts that are installed in Font Book are not showing up in Microsoft Word. Can someone help me fix this problem?

    Hello!
    I am needing some help. I own a Mac Book Air with OS X 10.7.5. This computer belongs to the school district I teach for, so I do not have permission to do a huge wipe that would uninstall programs such as Word. When I first got my computer, I added all my fonts. I did this by putting them into a fonts folder. The fonts were not all showing up in Microsoft Word, so I was told to use Font Book. All of my fonts show up and are installed in Font Book; however, they do not show up in Word. I have restarted my computer. All the fonts are validated. I have tried almost everything I could think of after researching answers online. Another problem--my bullet points are messed up. When I click the bullet button, instead of an open circle it's an open rectangle. This doesn't concern me as much, but I thought it might help as a clue as to what is wrong. The fonts also do not show up in the Format > Font box.
    Also, I want to point out that my colleagues, using the exact same computer, network, etc, are able to download and use all the fonts. They have tried to fix mine, also.
    Any help is much appreciated! Maybe there is some way to wipe out my fonts and start clean?
    Thanks so much!

  • Adobe Audition 3.0 will not load recordings that are 8 hours long?

    I have been taking day long recording sessions and wanting to review them from projects and notes. Someday these recordings can be over 8 hours in length and Audition will only load the first 2-3 hours of this.  Does anyone else have this issue?  How did you take care of this issue?  I am just looking for any information.  I have tried to record in both .WAV and .MP3 and it does the same thing.  I would really like to be able to find a way to make this work.   Thanks.

    I am actually not using it to record it live.  I am trying to import files off of an Olympus voice recorder and then edit them into sections through Audition.   The complete file will not load up.  It will only show the first 3 hours of a recording and then not see the rest.  But if I open the file in Windows Media Player it will play all 6-8 hours of the recording.  Any ideas of why it will not open the complete file?
    This is a slightly longer explanation of what ryclark wrote, and with probably the only solution that will work for you. I say probably, because I haven't ever needed to do this for myself. Others have reported that it works, and that's what I'm relying on here!
    So, what format are you opening the file in in Windows Media Player? If you open the MP3 it won't have a problem, because the MP3 file is severely compressed. It's only when you expand it out and try to save (or open, even) it so that it looks like a wav file that you have the problems. Because of the wav file size limit, you can't have a single wav file at anything like a sensible sample rate that will last that long. This isn't an Audition limit, it's imposed by the maximum address size you can write to the file header.
    The way around this is to import the file into Multitrack view, because this has the ability to split files and use the extra chunks in the broadcast wav specification to appear to open a much larger file. In reality it isn't though - it's just stitching together the several max length wav files that expanding the MP3 file out created. But you wouldn't be able to save this as a giant wav file, simply because of the addressing limitiations, which remain. What it should do though is let you extract sections from it, and open and subsequently save them in Edit view.

  • How do you add/use typekit fonts that are not edge web fonts?

    I am just trying out the new Muse CC 2014.1 (August) release and was keen to try the new font facilities.  As far as I can see that while I can now add other fonts for which I have downloaded web font files via the Self Hosted Web Fonts function, Typekit fonts that are not "Adobe Edge Web Fonts" are effectively unavailable?  Have I missed something.
    As an example I want to use the Proxima Nova web font family.  I have selected it on the type kit site, set them up to Sync via my Creative Cloud account.  So for example if I select a font in Photoshop CC or Illustrator, the Proxima Nova fonts appear. Even ok in Word for Mac.  They do not appear in Muse.
    To add them as self hosted web fonts, I would need to physically download the relevant fonts files and install them on my desktop using the OS-X font tool.  However as they are being sync'd via Creative Cloud this shouldn't be necessary should it?  Also I don't see an option for doing so on the typekit site.
    Any help or guidance would be very welcome.
    PS:  I seem to have a separate issue with the Creative Cloud app, which is not listing fonts under the Assets tab.  But I don't think that is related as they are working fine for Photoshop, etc.

    Hi David,
    I'm sorry that you ran into trouble with this. To add fonts from Typekit to your Muse website, you will want to use the web fonts path instead of desktop fonts.  (You can use a desktop font synced from Typekit in your Muse design, but it will exported as an image the same as any other system font.)
    There are a couple options for using Typekit web fonts in Muse:
    o) The Muse Insider wrote a post on how to insert the Typekit embed code from the Muse interface:
    http://museinsider.com/how-to-add-typekit-fonts-to-your-muse-site.html
    o) Or you can add the embed code to the Page Properties dialog within Muse, which will include it in the <head> of the page when you export your website. The steps are the same as this tutorial, but you will add the Typekit embed code to Muse instead of into your page directly:
    TYPEKIT | Adding fonts to your site
    Note that in either case the Typekit fonts will not be displayed in the Muse preview window. You'll need to publish your site to a server in order for the Typekit fonts to be loaded into the page.
    If those look like more coding that you are comfortable with, you might try one of the fonts which you can select from the font menu instead. Here are some that are similar to :
    https://edgewebfonts.adobe.com/fonts#/?xHeight=high&contrast=low&class=sans-serif&width=re gular
    We are also working on a more complete integration of Typekit with Muse in the future, but I can't say yet when that will be available.
    >> PS:  I seem to have a separate issue with the Creative Cloud app, which is not listing fonts under the Assets tab.  But I don't think that is related as they are working fine for Photoshop, etc.
    Do you see a "loading" icon in the tab (e.g. a blue spinner wheel)?  It sounds similar to this thread; you might try these suggestions:

  • 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.

  • Tried to reinstall PS CS6 from download, will not load after download and install, need assistance

    I tried to reinstall PS CS6 from download, will not load after download and install, need assistance.
    Thank you.

    Thanks for the suggestion - but I eventually tried again and was able to contact via "chat" to someone qualified to help. The problem was that in my existing "bridge" - preference was (I think by default) - checked to startup in background on Login. I did not realize this - because I don't think I set it that way in the first place (maybe I did a few years ago) - and I could not see anything in task manager to suggest that bridge was running an application or any process - but when I learned this - I was successful in installing PS CS6.
    Yes, I'm still not on solid ground re: whether or not I want to change from "owning" the tool or renting it -- what concerns me is that is sounds like regardless of users wishes, Adobe is headed in this direction and will eventually make it financially more feasible to go that route. At the moment I think they are "asking" for everyone to get on their bandwagon, but who knows. They have a powerful set of tools, that they continue to support and advance - and along with those development and support costs, they also would like to make a profit - so I understand if their past marketing model is no longer sufficient.
    Thanks again.

  • "this computer is no longer authorized for applications that are installed

    "this computer is no longer authorized for applications that are installed on the ipad "name of ipad" Would you like to autoriize for items purchased from the itunes store?
    if you do not autorize ....
    Why am I getting this message I only have 1 computer the ipad connects to, it hasnt changed so why do I suddenly have to autorize it again????

    I've gotten the same issue now on my ipad.
    My mac mini is authorized. I only have ONE itunes account. I sync my original ipad today and I get this message. So i say sure authorize, even tho it is. Enter login and password, comes back with this computer is already authorized. I knew that but ok. hit ok. Up pops message that this computer is no longer authorized, blah blah blah. Ok ill try again. Authorize credentials entered. Get message that computer is already authorized. Itunes is most recent 10.2.1. Ipad is updated to 4.3.1.
    I deauthorized computer and reauthorized it. Still get loop.
    google for solutions, find lots of problems, no answers outside of reinstall itunes and it "might" work, but not for everyone. Not gonna do that yet.
    Figure Ill call, I mean its not that an old a device and its surely a bug in the software, I havent changed a single thing since I last synced and only tried got the sync message when i plugged it in to update the OS.
    /rant on Go through a gazillion voice prompts and question, finally get operator and he'll help me if i spend 80 or 30 bucks depending on the service program I want. Yah know thats just total #$%@.
    How about some customer service eh? How about posting a solution to the forums. If you dont have one, at least tell people that.
    I get the same bit of attitude when I walk in the apple store.

  • I just upgraded to 10.9.  My exchange email won't load emails that are older than a few weeks old.  How do I change this setting so I can see all my mail?

    I just upgraded to 10.9.  My exchange email won't load emails that are older than a few weeks old.  How do I change this setting so I can see all my mail?

    Plett81,
    I'm having the exact same problem. It does not seem to be a settings issue but rather some sort of "problem" with mac mail. My Exchange provider was able to setup my mailbox on a test machine running Mavericks and everything pulled in fine, however I cannot duplicate on my upgraded system.
    I was able to get rebuild my mailbox and get the older messages within my Exchange inbox, however none of my folders and old messages outside of the Inbox are downloading/synching.
    **NOTE** I contacted Apple SUpport and they told me to call my email provider. I called my email provider which did as described above and they don't see a problem. SO as suspected it has something to do with the Mavericks update but I'm not sure Apple is willing to help. I might try contacting them one more time and see.

  • Check if in Word document (Word 2013) advanced option "Use fonts that are stored on the printer" is set

    Is it possible in a VBA macro to check whether an opened word document has the advanced option "Use fonts that are stored on the Printer" is set.
    I have a word macro that opens and processes thousands of word documents.  The processing needs to be different based on whether this option is set or not.

    Hi Harry,
    I'm afraid that we're not able to retrieve this option value. The Advanced Options are actually stored as application level. Some of the options can be accessed with the Word.Application.Options property. But there're also many options that are not
    exposed in the Word Object Model. As you can see in this figure, there's no property corresponding to "Use fonts that are stored on the printer":

  • Just purchased CS4 but disk will not load at all, cannot install

    I have been looking around on the forums for a day or so but have not seen anyone else that has this problem. I insert the CS4 disk into my DVD rom and it is not doing anything at all. It wil not load, if I go to My Computer and click DVD rom it causes my comp to freeze.
    Notmally I would assume this is a problem with my disk drive but when I put any other disk in there it works fine. Now experimenting I tried placing my frien'd photoshop elements disk in and it does the exact same thing.
    I have tried all the other tricks like turning off the firewall, virus software, removed Adobe reader and Flash. But nothing has changed. What else should I try?

    The first thing to do is to check if the Photoshop disk is in fact ok or not.  Are you able to read the Photoshop disk on another computer?
    If the disk is ok, there is something specific to your drive/system which is causing the problem.
    You can find loads of discussions about DVD drives freezing the system in various forums.  Some general troubleshooting steps: http://www.brighthub.com/computing/windows-platform/articles/53821.aspx
