Illustrator white not showing up in indesign cs5

I have a white illustrator logo as an .AI file. When I put print over view on, it is not showing up.
The illustrator swatch is set to white process 4 color.
I looked at indesigns attributes and nothing is checked.
Any thoughts?
thanks,
Jon

White objects inadvertantly set to overprint has been a problem since day one of the desktop publishing revolution. The day that a company or agency vectorized their logo is when the problem started. And the story goes like this: a logo is vectorized and colorized for multiple usage, in hopes to prevent trapping issues for the black version the art is set to overprint. Then someone realizes that a reverse logo is needed, takes the black version switches to white, not paying any attention to an overprint setting.

Enabled fonts not showing up in InDesign after Mountain Lion Upgrade

After upgrading to Mountain Lion, fonts that are enabled in Font Book (Adobe open Type) are not showing up in InDesign CS5.5.
However, if I go to Font Book and disable the fonts, then re-enable them...they will show up in InDesign.
Anyone know how to fix this?
Thanks!

It sounds like a small glitch in your Mountain Lion upgrade. If you're just done an in-place upgrade (not a clean install) these things can happen.
It sounds like you've found the workaround. But if you discover other problems with the upgrade, you should consider a clean install. Do a Google search on "clean install Mountain Lion" to find out how.

I am having issues with Sidebar files not appearing from within InDesign CS5.5. They show up fine from other Adobe applications. Using OS10.6.8.

I would first of all trash the preference file for InDesign, make sure the application is closed then find the prefs in
/Users/USER NAME/Library/Preferences/Adobe InDesign and just throw the entire folder away, it will generate a new one after you launch InDesign again.
Now launch InDesign and see if the problems are resolved.
If not I would repair your permissions on your hard drive wih disk utility, and if that fails then di-install InDesign and re-install that single application.
Let me know if any of these suggestions work for you
I will be checking my email although you might have to wait for a response as I will be taking a microlight flight over the Victoria Falls tomorrow. Yay can hardly wait.

How importing illustrator CS4(or 5) gradients into InDesign CS5?

How importing illustrator CS4(or 5) gradients into InDesign CS5?
Many gradients for illustrator we can download in Internet, but nothing for InDesign ...

I try create ASE file, but his only for Colors, without beautiful gradient...
What i must do?

Thanks, copy to clipboard - it's working,
but why developers not create "Simple converter" in InDesign
Menu -> Load Swatches, what will get swatches in *.ai (or other) files??

Default keyboards folder in illustrator CC not showing- no .kys file in apps folder

default keyboards folder in illustrator CC not showing- no .kys file in apps folder, The keyboard shorcuts in Illustrator -Edit-shorcuts, don't show default shortcuts either...should I reinstall Illustrator CC?

If you are on a Mac, then the default keys should be in Adobe Illustrator CSX/Presets/en_US/Keyboard Shortcuts. If it's not there then a reinstall would be in order possibly running the cleaner tool in between.

Generally this should work, but of course there may be occasional compatibility issues across the different programs and their different versions.

Fonts not showing up in InDesign CC 64bit

I find it extremely difficult to believe that Adobe have not found a solution to the issue of installed fonts not showing up in InDesign. If anybody has found a solution that does not include the "rewriting" of font types. Please assist. We specialize in Brand Management, and it becomes extremely challenging when Adobe InDesign does not show up the installed font in order to ensure Brand Management :/

POSSIBLE SOLUTION
I'm not sure if this is the cause for anyone else, but I had the same symptoms--almost no fonts showing up in InDesigns Font dropdown options.
THE SOLUTION: The new version of ID has two "font filter toggle button". They are the "Apply Favorite Filter", and "Apply Typekit Filter". It seem that in my install, the Typekit filter was on by default, which makes it so that the Font list only displays those fonts that originate from Typekit, as opposed to the thousand you have on your hard drive.
Click the toggle to turn off the filter and --zowee! All your fonts come right back.
I hope this helps some of you. It would also explain why people on both Macs and Windows boxes are having this issue.
Best,
Lance

White Boxes from EPS Not Showing Up in INDD CS5

this is kind of lame, but I'm still curious...
I have an Illustrator eps file (CS4) that had black and white shapes, text, etc (very simple), however when I placed the eps file into InDesign (CS5), the white box did not show up. There is a black stroke around the box that appears, however the white does not appear. I went back and drew a new white box, resaved it and the new white box appeared. Any idea why the original file would not have come through properly?
(PS...I'm using Windows)
Thanks!

White set to overprint?
And stop using EPS...it's an archaic file format. Use native AI or PDF from Illustrator for best results.

Extensions not showing at all - Indesign CC 2014 - but shows in Photoshop and illustrator

Hi Hallgrimur Bjornsson,
Extensions not showing at all in Indesign CC 2014 (see screenshot) - but are showing in Photoshop and illustrator
Have tried to remove ExMan.db file and restart Extension Manager (v. 7.3.2.39).
After install, the extension correctly shows in
~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/CEP/extensions
In CC folder - there's one extension (Adobe Mini Bridge)
~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/CEPServiceManager4/extensions
Have tried to uninstall and reinstall InDesign CC 2014.
There is only CC 2014 version of the applications installed.

Is Extensions available as a menu item under Edit > Menus...
If it is, is it marked as visible?
If it is not, uninstall, run the cleaner tool (CS Cleaner Tool for installation problems | CCM, CS6, CS5.5, CS5, CS4, CS3 ) and reinstall.

Is there a fix for Arial Narrow not showing up in InDesign? I need it!!

InDesign CS5, Windows7. I am seeing where lots of people are having trouble, but has anyone found a fix? Arial Narrow and it's font family is supposedly installed in Windows/Fonts, but is not available in InDesign. Arial narrow only shows up under Arial as a family member, not its own family. I NEED Arial Narrow Bold to work! I am behind schedule.

This problem is due to the offending fonts having the wrong "Preferred Family" and "Preferred Subfamily" names and it can be corrected using a Font Editor, such as the free version of Type light which can be downloaded from http://www.cr8software.net/typelight.html.
The process I found to work (in Windows 8 with Adobe Indesign CC and Office 2010) is as follows:
Open a File Explorer window and go to the system font library at C:/Windows/Fonts and double click on the Arial font (this has a special icon indicating that it contains multiple subentries)
Copy the fonts for Arial Narrow, Arial Narrow Bold, Arial Narrow Italic and Arial Narrow Bold Italic to a new folder on your desktop
Edit each of these copies using your font editor and change the Preferred Family and Preferred Subfamily names (in Type light use the menu option Font>Names... then click the Advanced button)
The Preferred Family should be changed to Arial Narrow and the Preferred Subfamily should be either Regular, Bold, Italic, or Bold Italic as per the particular font you are editing (While you are there you could also make similar changes to the Arial Black font which has the same problem - in this case, make Preferred Family Arial Black and Preferred Subfamily Regular)
Save each font file back over the top of the one in the folder in your folder on the desktop (Save and replace) then open a new File Explorer window for that folder and drag the changed fonts back into their orginal location at C:/Windows/Fonts/Arial
Open a new File Explorer window and do a search on the C: drive for all instances of AdobeFnt*.lst then delete all of them
Restart your computer

CS6: Fonts not showing up in Indesign or other adobe programs

There are missing fonts in several of our files due to moving our marketing inhouse.
I have installed the Avenir complete font family into C:\Windows\Fonts and a lot of them aren't showing up in InDesign or the other Adobe programs.
After looking at some other forums I followed the instructions to place them into;
C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe InDesign CS6\Fonts
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Fonts
STILL The only fonts showing up are;
Avenir 35 Light
Avenir 45 Book
Avenir 55 Roman
Avenir 65 Medium
We have already been using this font for all our printing so changing is not an option.
Could someone give me some other suggestions?

Have you rebooted? What format is the font? Does it show correctly in any applications?

Incopy changes not showing up in InDesign

I have an InCopy story in which the editor made several edits and applied several style sheets; however, those changes are not showing up in the InDesign file. The InDesign file does not show that the story is "out of date." When I open the actual INCX file, the changes are in the file and if I unlink the story from InDesign, delete the text, then re-link the story, the changes now appear.
We were able to fix this instance and did not loose any text; however, I just wondered if anyone else has had this happen and if there's a known cause for this.

I think your understanding is correct - when double clicked it DOES open the appropriate InDesign file, and it DOES clear the "Package" icon in the assignments palette next to the assignment. But it DOES NOT show the modified incopy "incx" files as has been modified.
Normally it would show it needing to be modified, in which case, like you said, you are prompted (well, there's not a dialog box at that time, but you see the yellow warning icon next to the "incx" file in the Links or Assignments palettes) to update the link(s).
Again this is a hit or miss proposition. The designer and I worked on this for a few hours last week. My contention was that it had something to do with where she had the Exported InCopy "incx" files; where she created the assignment (clicking on the Change button in the New Assignment dialog); or where she put the "indp" package when it she received the modified edits. So we tinkered with changing these paths. We also switched from "Exporting Layer", which is our normal process to just Exporting an individual selected article. Using the "Exporting Layer" and keeping the assignment in the default path (with the InDesign file) seemed to work. But we didn't do enough of that scenario to prove it consistently worked. She will be doing that over the next few live jobs.
But none of those really made sense to me as the culprit. I'm contemplating my next move for testing. Of course today with my local testing, I couldn't reproduce the problem. We're on Window's servers via SMB, maybe that's got something to do with it.

Fonts not showing up in InDesign CS4?

Hi,
Newbie here, so any wisdom from the voices of experience is greatly appreciated.
I just upgraded from CS2 to CS4, and several fonts that worked fine in CS2 do not even show up in CS4 (!). I'm working with Mac OSX and I'd really like to know if anyone has any constructive suggestions. I've done some poking around online and it seems I'm not the only one who's encountered this little issue, but it also seems that others have been unsuccessful in resolving it. Can anyone provide some insight?
Thank you!

Thanks for responding.I'm working with Mac version 10.5.8.
The fonts I'm trying to work with are foreign language fonts that don't appear anywhere on the font list (trust me-I've looked!).
Well, if you've really looked through the whole list, you already know that foreign-language fonts usually show up at the end of the list, in categories that are ostensibly by language. Some of them do not show up in their pre-ordained language category; massive Unicode roll-ups of many scripts often show up with the Latin-script fonts or the Thai fonts (???).
I'm the complex-script DTP wonk in a translation firm that specializes in refugee languages; chances are that I've already encountered the fonts you're trying to install, at some point in the last decade. If I haven't, I know someone who has done so. You really should post the names of the fonts, so I can tell you if I know anything about them, tricks to install them, and so on.
As far as how the fonts were installed-I'm not sure how they got here initially (fonts are a great mystery to me), but they show up in my Fontbook in the "Computer" collection but not the "User" collection. Could that have something to do with my problem?
Uh, maybe. I doubt it, though. You could find out by
1) Finding out where the actual font files are.
2) Copying them to your desktop, or someplace where Mac OS can't get to 'em.
3) Uninstall them from Fontbook. (I don't have a Mac with that version of Mac OS installed; I'll look when I'm at home to see if I can give you step-by-step instructions, or you can Google for instructions.)
4) Put the font files in your /Applications/Adobe InDesign CS4/Fonts folder.
For fonts that Mac OS doesn't like, this is the most reliable way to get them working. But really, post the names of the fonts and I'll probably be able to tell you all about using them for typesetting in InDesign.

Errors not showing up in InDesign, finding them in print publication

I design a weekly newspaper. Today, and other weeks, we've had what seems to be a sporadic issue where once I finish designing my InDesign document (with no errors in preflight), and send it to our plate maker, the plate is printing a page or more with each line of text cut halfway (see photo).
For instance, this issue occurred this week on our front page, but I used the same template and same PDF preset as the week before, and last week, there were no issues, nor the week before, or week before.
My first question is, what might cause the text to print like this on the plate, but not show up as an error in the InDesign document?
Secondly, we finally worked around the issue this week by exporting the entire document as a .ps file, then converting it to a .pdf. Why would this have made a difference? More importantly, why would the export setting I've used dozens of times before only not work a handfull of times in regard to the text being cut?
