InDesign does not package fonts used in placed .AI files

When we package a project for our print vendor, placed .AI files containing fonts do not get collected. I know those fonts are embedded in the .AI file when printing from InDesign, but sometimes our prep vendors need to make last minute edits to these .AI files before they RIP the project. Is there a way to have InDesign collect fonts from .AI files? I know we could use Illustrator .EPS format and uncheck "Embed Fonts", but our vendors prefer .AI files. Any add-on plugins available to solve this problem or other workarounds?

I suppose you could open each .ai file, go to select> object> text objects, copy, then paste into InDesign, save and package. Then delete the pasted type after packaging. This does not work with Zaph dingbats, symbol, or probably other "ornamental" fonts, which are converted to outline upon pasting.

  • Why does InDesign sometimes NOT package fonts?

    Hi. I'm using the latest version of InDesign and lately, when I package files, I've noticed that the 'document fonts' folder is not always created in the finished packaged folder. There seems to be no pattern to when it does or does not include them. For instance, on one job it did include them, then on the same job when the artwork had been updated, it did not. Same typefaces etc. Any ideas?

    Okay. So you do not have the latest version but you do have the most recent patch for CS5. I know there were some issues with Type 1 fonts but I’ve heard nothing about issues with Opentype or TrueType especially on Windows.
    Sorry, but I really don’t what to tell you.

  • InDesign CS5.5 does not display fonts correctly

    InDesign CS5.5 does not display Futura fonts correctly. I have removed all versions of Futura from FontBook on my Mac (running Mac OSX 10.7.4) but CS5.5 - Indesign, Illustrator & photoshop - still displays Futura as being open but only InDesign does not display the font correctly. The font displays correctly when I open InDesign CS4 and all other versions of Illustrator and Photoshop.  I really need to use this font. What's going on with InDesign?

    In your first screen shot , there are 2 futura font ,one is Adobe Type 1 font and the second one is True Type, you might have installed both the type of the font on your computer sometime. Now you have removed all the futura font and it is still showing in the Indesign , also the same thing happened with the Minion Pro , seems to me the font cache is not updating.
    First remove the Adobe Font cache's file:-
             At the Finder, choose File > Find.  
             Type AdobeFnt.lst, select the system drive, and then press Return.  
             Delete all AdobeFnt.lst files found (for example, AdobeFnt10.lst).
    then clear system font cache  :-  
    Launch Terminal (from /Applications/Utilities)
    Enter the following command at the prompt and press Return: sudo atsutil databases -remove
    Restart your computer immediately

    How to fix file when it says, "Cannot open file " ". Adobe Indesign does not support the file format, a plug-in that supports the file may be missing, or file may be open in another application." It worked one second, I saved and closed the file, then tried to reopen and now it won't work. I am using Adobe InDesign CS5. It is the only version on my comp. I have tried opening on another comp & copying the file – same error comes up. PLEASE HELP

    First check the version of the document with Jongware's script "Identify.jsx" (ExtendScript/JavaScript).
    You can find it here:
    [Ann] Identify Your InDesign File
    If it is CS 5.5 or above, you need someone to open it in the version the script says and export an IDML representation from that. Another way would be to install a 30days version of CS6 or above (CC) and do it yourself.
    In regards of the script showing a result for InDesign files higher than CS6:
    CS7 = CC v9
    CS8 = CC v10 = CC-2014 or CC2014.1

  • Acrobat/Indesign does not export correct into the selected output intention (eci_iso_coated_v2_300)

    I use the CS6 suite with Acrobat XI at windows platform.
    When I want to save a file from InDesign as .pdf with output intention eci_iso_coated_v2_300 the result is a .pdf with more than 300% ink coverage.
    I tried to transform the result in Acrobat XI into this standard output intention, but also the result has more than 300 % ink coverage.
    What is the reason of this bug?
    Before with Acrobat X this worked without problems

    Hi Rob,
    I was told the new way to work would be to draw files via Bridge direct into the InDesign file
    and I thought automatically the color would not be changed.
    my colourmanagement setting in bridge for the whole CS6 was  ECI isocoated_V2_300
    The Illustrator file was saved without color profile.
    In this test file I used 3 kinds of black: background of pirate in cmyk 79,34 / 72,78 / 59,38 / 79,88 = ink coverage 291 %
    DÜSSELPIRATEN in “black” (if you would convert this in the file with the cmyk button it would be the same ink-percentage as before
    “e.V.” was set to 100 % k
    I set the preferences for Acrobat from InDesign CS6 as pdf X4 with profile eci isocoatedV2_300 in three ways:
    no color conversion
    convert to profile
    convert to profile keeping existing values
    in all tree files the pirates background has 322 % ink coverage instead of 291 %
    Why does Acrobat convert “black” in the wrong way?  If I click in Illustrator on the 4c button to convert the “black” into 4c it is 291% ink
    Acrobat should come to the same result with all profiles: iso coated V2 and iso coated V2_300
    The same happens also by saving as .pdf X3 or .X1
    The minimum what I expect is, that Acrobat reduces ink coverage for black to 300 %
    I also made test with the new ECI profiles for laminated prints from 2012.
    And with newspaper profiles
    In this case the ink coverage comes below 300 %, but only when I choose convert to profile.
    And then the 100 % k converts to cmyk, what I don’t want to have with text.
    Is there no way to reduce ink coverage below a special percentage without changing Text 100% k
    And is there a bug in Acrobat XI with the ECI IsoCoated_V2_300 Profile? For there is no color reduction below 300 % in all conversion settings.
    I can’t test this with Acrobat X or IX, for my computers with this software don’t run with CS6 64 bit.
    enclosed you find my files

    I have checked the box "display date and time on the Menu Bar" and it does not work.  Using OS X Yosemite 10.10.2  Anybody have a fix?

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Step 1
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
    Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this behavior; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
    After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    *Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
    Step 2
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Please take this step regardless of the results of Step 1.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2.

  • Is there a way to increase the icon size (and the text below) without using zoom?  I am trying to help out someone who has moderate visual impairment that does not want to use zoom just to see the icons and their labels.

    Is there a way to increase the icon size (and the text below) without using zoom in iOS 7?  I am trying to help out someone who has moderate visual impairment that does not want to use zoom just to see the icons and their labels.

    Hello Apple.
    It seems you have gone to great lengths to improve accessibility in many areas of the iPad. Why was this obvious problem with icon text size missed?  (It's not with the Mac.). And for so long too.
    Do you employ people with actual accessibility problems to help you do UI design?
    I think too, that some buttons are too close for people who might have motor control problems.
    I love my iPad but I fear as I age, the iPad might not keep up with me.

  • Farm Remote App 2012 R : Your system administrator does not allow the use of default credentials to log on to Work Resources

    Hi
    Here is the situation:
    I have a Farm with 3 servers W2012R2 in a Domain
    Server1                           Server 2                                  
    Server3
    RDSession Host            RDSession Host                            
    RDSession Host
    Connection Broker        Connection Broker (Passive)
    RD Web Access
    2 DNS Alias : - poc.mydomain.local (Use for the RD Web Access and points to Server1
                        -poccb.mydomain.local (Use for the Connection Broker and points to Server1)
    I have setup the Connection broker in HA with Server2 as Passive Server : DNS Round Robin poccb.mydomain.local (Server1)
    The certificate Manager has generated 2 CA certificates :
    - 1 for the RD Web Acc (poc.mydomain.local
    -1 for Connection Broker SSO and for publishing
    I have created 1 Group Policy for these 3 servers and 1 GP for my client Windows 7 SP1.
    Server GPO :
    Computer/Administrative Templates/Windows Components/Remote Desktop Services/Remote Desktop Session Host/Security
    Always prompt for password upon connection=Disabled

    TERMSRV/POCCB.mydomain.local
    I use no Gateway and in my collection,I have activated SSL (Like in my Server GPO)
    I have now problem with SSO.
    Connection with remote desktop client with server name = poccb.mydomain.local
    Your system administrator does not allow you the use of default credentials to log on to the remote computer poccb.mydomain.local because its identity is not fully verified
    If in my client GPO I add the physical name of the 3 servers, it works :
    TERMSRV/Server1
    TERMSRV/Server2
    TERMSRV/Server3
    Open RDP Files with server name = poccb.mydomain.local
    if my connection broker connects me on Server1 , no problem
    But If I arrive on Server2 & Server 3=
    Your system administrator does not allow the use of default credentials to log on to Work Resources
    I have searched on internet. No result for " to log on to Work Resources"
    Any idea ? Thanks for your help

    Hi,
    Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
    Firstly check that, your user is using domain\username to enter the credential in the dialog box.
    Now for a try, you can edit .rdp file with notepad and just place “enablecredsspsupport:i:0” line in it, save it an launch to check whether you are facing same issue.
    As you are using windows 7 then upgrade to RDP 8.1. Also as you have already enter the FQDN name of server under “Allow delegating default credentials”. For a try please enable and configure for all the remaining settings as follow and check the result.
    Start / Run / gpedit.msc / Computer Configuration / Administrative Templates / System / Credentials Delegation, and make sure you have the following four options enabled and configured:
    Allow Delegating Default Credentials with NTLM-only Server Authentication
    Allow Delegating Default Credentials
    Allow Delegating Saved Credentials
    Allow Delegating Saved Credentials with NTLM-only Server Authentication
    Finally, open a command prompt and use “gpupdate /force” command to apply the policy directly.
    More information:
    Remote desktop credentials did not work
    Hope it helps!

  • SQLite encrypted Database does not get attached Using Adobe Air,Why?

    Hi,
    Any one knows the solution, am trying to attach the encrypted SQLite database adobe air-adobe flex bulder , it does not get attached using sqlconnection.attach throws error, though the given key is correct, but it gets open using sqlconnection.open with the same key, any one knows the solution, how to attach the encrypted data base, since am using two data base one is opened and another must be attached to the existing ,thanks in advance. using adobe air- flex related. i use the following code
                   databaseFile1 = File.applicationStorageDirectory.resolvePath("Sample_1.sqlite");
                   databaseFile2 = File.applicationStorageDirectory.resolvePath("Sample_2.sqlite");
    dbConnection.open(databaseFile1, SQLMode.CREATE, false, 1024, secKey);
    dbConnection.attach("db2",databaseFile2,null,secKey);
    got the following error.
    ERROR #3125 Unable to open the database file.

    And I would say more "this is the issue" !
    It should be possible as it is clearly stated in the doc :
    public function attach(name:String, reference:Object = null, responder:Responder = null, encryptionKey:ByteArray = null):void
    with 
    encryptionKey:ByteArray (default = null) — The encryption key for the database file. If the attach() call creates a database, the database is encrypted and the specified key is used as the encryption key for the database. If the call attaches an existing encrypted database, the value must match the database's encryption key or an error occurs. If the database being attached is not encrypted, or to create an unencrypted database, the value must be null (the default).
    so with a same encryptionkey, I (and this should be the same for FinalTarget) can open the encrypted db but not to attach it... quite strange.

  • Aperture Does Not Import Videos using IMPORT FOLDER AS PROJECTS

    SOLVED - Aperture 3.2.1 does not import videos using "Import Folder as Project"
    After 2 days of trying to figure this out (actually around 2 hours total) I've finally managed to import all my photos & videos last year. 200 Gigs 54,000 files. First few tries resulted with referenced photos only, no videos. I had no luck with Google, even tried moving a couple of .plist as mentioned from this thread: https://discussions.apple.com/message/11188017?messageID=11188017#11188017 - this worked for some but not for me. Some issues were solved by NOT selecting "Raw Only", this will cause Aperture to skip your videos.
    Thank you to these people who took time to share. In return I am posting my micro contribution to the Aperture Community. FILE > SWITCH TO LIBRARY > then create a new library. You should be able to import your photos with videos in folders.
    I hope this gets into Google soon. :-)

    , I see only the file, where these photos are, not the photo names or thumbs inside the file (Aperture import path).
    You mean in the Aperture Import panel the folder, where the jpegs should be, is empty?
    Then you may have excluded jpegs from import in your "Import Settings".
    Check the above settings in the "Import Settings" options in the "Import Window". I.e-make sure the Raw+Jpeg Pairs option is set to "Both", even if you do not import raws.
    After reassembled all the programs to a new hard drive in Mac Pro
    Is this new Harddrive your system volume? And are the jpegs you wat to import located on this drive? Or are the on another external volume? If yes, how is this volume formatted?
    Have you checked the permissions and ownership of the jpegs?
