InDesign CS6 Middle East : default font substituted for missing font

Hello,
Message error from Indesign : Default font substituted for missing font
I am currently using version "InDesign CS6 Middle East," which normally supports the Arabic language ...
The problem is that the characters display correctly and others not! Especially this "font" called "MunaPlain", this version was created in 1996. (on the Internet, I could not find a new version!)
According to research, test... i have found that Mac OS X Lion that causes this error!
My question is:
Can I uninstall Mac OS X Lion and install an old OS version in my computer, for example MAC OS X Leopard ? Any solution please ?
Is there an update or plugin indesign for Arabic? (except ScribDoor, because in this case, it is useless)
Thank you!

For questions regarding Adobe apps, it is probably really best to ask Adobe or use their forums:

I am amazed that an arabic font from 1996 would work correct anywhere today given the changes in technology that have occurred. Is it really not possible for you to use a modern Unicode Arabic font for your work? There are lots of them -- Apple gives you a half-dozen or so. And there is a list at

Whether you can downgrade your os depends on your hardware. If it came new with 10.7 installed, then it is not possible.

InDesign CS6 Middle Eastern Version an 32 bit

1. I want to purchase InDesign CS6 Middle Eastern Version, but I cannot find this version on the Adobe Web site under the "Buy" tab. Where can I purchase it?
2.Does InDesign CS6 run under Windows 7 32 bit or I need to install the Windows 64 bit version?
Thanks in advance for your help.

I think you can find it if you switch to one of the online Adobe stores in the Middle East region, and yes, it will run on 32-bit.

Middle East, Arabic, Hebrew language for Adobe Design Standard or Premium?

Where can I find those? Are there trials for Adobe Design Premium or Standard, any version from CS3 onwards in Middle East, Arabic or Hebrew language?
Either to buy or to download. If not from Adobe itself, what sites can be trusted?
I see some upgrade language kits from languagesource dot com for example but not sure about those.
Any suggestions?

Indesign CS6 crashed, can't be started again (missing required fonts, cmap files). Reinstalled -- doesnt work. help?

hi,
my indesign CS6 worked perfectly until yesterday afternoon, when it suddenly crashed and wont open again. all it says is "There are required system fonts or cmap files missing. reinstall indesign". Did that, with the cc cleaner, but that doesnt work!
working on windows 7, sp1 -- never had any problems.
all i can find in other forums is about the cs2, which is fairly outdated. why does this happen?! all my other programs from the master collection work fine!

ok, after a quite frustrating weekend the problem seems to have solved itself. what i did (for future requests):
- downloaded cs6 master collection (since i had my cds not with me)
- deinstalled old install
- wiped the system with the adobe cc cleaner tool to get everything off
- restart
- install cs6
- same error. no chance of doing anything.
i then installed a trial version on another computer to at least render my pdf. i then tried something new: i put the cmap & fonts (in C:/Programs/Common Files/Adobe/PDFL) from the working pc on a usb drive. when i "backed up" my PDFL Folder on my main pc into a zip (just in case), i gave indesign another try. it then started up -- since it was the first time a bit slower than usual, but it's back on track.

How do I stop InDesign CS6 from suddenly forgetting export tags for accessible Adobe PDFs?

Was working in InDesign CS6 on Windows 7 Enterprise today with a file that had a large number of export tags available, which I use when exporting accessible PDFs,
Suddenly, my selection of tags became severely limited.
When opening another blank file, even tags such as H1, P, and Story were missing. I had to replace my InDesign application preferences with those from a backup made a few weeks ago, and reimport the tags from a file done last month. Is anyone aware of an issue which would cause InDesign to suddenly lose its ability to tag stories for export?

I've moved your question to the InDesign EPUB forum.
EXACTLY what version of CS6 are you running? There was a bug in an early version of CS6 that prevented either space before or space after from being recognized (I forget which). It was fixed in a later version.
What does it say in the About InDesign dialog?

Not able to get font style for some fonts

Hi,
I am getting font style(like regular, bold, italic etc) like this-
while (count < fontCount) {//loop , which iterate throgh used fonts.
                                                  ATE::IFont currentFont = fontRefArray.Item(count);
                                                  if (!currentFont.IsNull()) {
                                                            FontRef fontRef = currentFont.GetRef();
                                                            AIFontKey fontKey = NULL;
                                                            result = sAIFont->FontKeyFromFont(fontRef, &fontKey);
                                                            result = sAIFont->GetUserFontName(fontKey, fontname, 50);
                                                            result = sAIFont->GetPostScriptFontName(fontKey, psname, 50);
                                                            result = sAIFont->GetFontStyleName(fontKey, stylename, 50);
                                                            result = sAIFont->GetFontFamilyUIName(fontKey, familyname, 50);
For some fonts(not all the fonts) , Style name is comming as empty string, however for other fonts its working. Not sure why its working for some fonts and not for others. Other font properties are coming fine for all fonts.
When its failing, result is not kNoErr, but i dont know that how to get the exact error?Please help me in this issue.
Regards,
Harsh

Hi A. Patterson,
Thanks for your suggestion.
I tried GetFontStyleUINameUnicode() also but its also returning the emply string for style name for some of the fonts only difference is that error is kNoErr for all fonts. May be there is some problem with those specific fonts(who knows? ). m keep digging this.

Harsh

Removing/substituting a "missing font" from a document

Hey all!
I removed some unused fonts from my system, and now some of my Pages documents raise up the "missing font" error on opening, although all styles used in the document use the fonts that are in the system. Perhaps some of the blank paragraphs may have "traces" of those old fonts.
So is there a way to do a "substitute font" procedure? Or do I have to manually select all paragraphs and make sure the style they use is based on an existing font?
Thanks,
Artemiy.

Artemiy,
check this posting, where Dale Gillard published an AppleScript to change missing font names by other names: http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=2212786#2212786

InDesign CS6 folio builder/links question. For iPad app.

Hi there. I am a graphic designer who is very experienced in InDesign using the software for print purposes. I am now branching out with the capacities CS6 has and am learning to design (mainly presentation) apps for the iPad. So, I've designed a portfolio as a multiple page document with both portrait and landscape page orientations. The app would consist of a starter page which would be a load of animation exported as swf, and imported back into InDesign as HTML5, or MP4, or however (I haven't nailed this yet as I'm leaving this till last as this page will serve as a screen saver until swiped). When the viewer swipes page 1 they will enter into the main 'contents' page with a load of thumbnails of clients I have and within those clients a load of case studies. So, I've roughly designed the layout and will need to build but I need to know what I'm limited by.
Page 1 title page,
page 2 contents (with scrollable bar with links to other pages)
page 3 will be the 1st client and will need approx 6 case studies, which I presume I'll need to make extra pages. And so on.
Anyhow, I digress – the question I ask is that to upload and test on the iPad through content viewer I obviously need to upload the articles as separate pages (incorporating both H & V orientations) but would I make the links from my 'contents' page when the document was a multiple page document (ie in it's original state) or would I apply these links (as buttons I presume rather than hyperlinks) when the articles have been separated and I'm working with page 01, 02, 03 etc in folio builder?. I know how how to create buttons from thumbnails but I can't work out how to link them to their desired targets (next page/page no/ etc etc) for the record I want to present my work on an iPad as an app, without relying on WIFI or 3G. Last question (phew) Is I have a picture frame with a slideshow in - is it possible for the viewer to click these and open them in full screen mode and flick/navigate through that way? then click via a cross in the top corner back to the screen they were on. Very grateful for any replies – It's a steep learning curve from print! Steve C, London, England

Steve,
we have many resources, from step-by-step tutorials to videos and more at our DPS Developer Center at http://www.adobe.com/devnet/digitalpublishingsuite.html.
There is also a very cool (and free) app called DPS Tips with many examples on using interactive overlays in DPS: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/digital-publishing-suite-tips/id436199090?mt=8
The iPad Publishing Companion Guide PDF is available on the DPS Dashboard (https://digitalpublishing.acrobat.com). The link to download the Companion Guide is available in the "Additional Resources" section on the Dashboard.
I think that these resources will provide answers to most of your questions.

InDesign CS6 crashing when exporting as a PDF (not font problem)

I have attempted exporting my PDF with all different kinds of settings. It's only an 8 page document. It has about 15 low res jpgs in it. I used a stock Adobe font.There are a several hyperlinks in the file but, mostly it is just text. I have no idea how to fix this. And naturally, I need it for work tomorrow. I do get one error message saying that there is overlaying text on 3 of 8 pages, but I really don't think that is something that would cause this problem. Any ideas??? Thanks!

I thought that's what that link was for...the crash report I posted to pastebin. I have never used that site before. Sorry.
Alas, I was able to get it work...after 5-6 hours of working on it. I ended up saving it as an IDML (again, the first time didn't work). It replaced all the images with gray squares, but at least I had the content. The images were the least of my worries. I recreated the entire doc (borrowed every page but page 4) to get away from whatever that was about and just redid the layout for page 4. It exported perfectly as a PDF and is now on the boss lady's desk, just in time.
Thank you all for all of your help!
