Individual fonts not recognized properly when opening a MAC FLA file on PC

I'm getting a missing font warning when opening an FLA file
even though I have all the necessary fonts. The problem is that
while I have MyriadPro-Bold, MyriadPro-BoldIt, MyriadPro-Semibold
on my machine, they only show up in Flash as the Typeface names of
Myriad Pro (first two), and Myriad Pro Light (last one).
I don't want to have to go through an entire file and apply
bold and italics to anywhere they exist, so I'm hoping there is a
way to map these properly. Adobe Type Manager shows all these fonts
properly when I open it, so I don't understand why Adobe's version
of Flash can only see the font family and not the individual fonts.
Hopefully someone out there has had the same problem and can
help me figure this out.

I know this thread is a bit old, but I wanted to share my experience and solution in case anyone else runs into this.
The other day, I spent many hours editing some photos for a client. I saved them all and closed Photoshop. When I tried to open the .PSDs, they all came up with this "Not a valid Photoshop document" error. I was freaking out. I could see the thunmbnails and previews with the MacOS Finder and could see the images just fine in Lightroom, but couldn't open them in Photoshop CC.
Finally, I remembered that these were NOT supposed to be .psd files! They were supposed to be TIFFs. What happened was, when I edited them from within Lightroom into Photoshop, they opened as TIFFs. However, when I did "save as", I wanted to name them similarly to some other files I had. I clicked on one of the existing files to copy the file name in the Save As dialog to make it easier to name the new file I was saving, but I didn't realize it was changing the file extention from ".tif" to ".psd" as well. The older MacOS (version 9 and earlier) didn't rely on file extensions fo identifying file types, so it didn't hit me right away that this would be the problem. When I changed the incorrect .psd file extension to .tiff, the files opened in Photoshop just fine.
SO... if you run into this "Not a valid Photoshop document" error, try figuring out if it's actually another file type (.jpg, .tif, .png, etc) by either getting the file info from another program or just experimenting with different file extensions. Chances are good that your file isn't actually corrupt, but just named improperly!

  • Fonts are not showing properly when opened through mail?

    When sending a PDF via email the Frutiger font does not appear properly on an iPad or iPhone. When viewed on an iPhone all the text appears as gradient boxes and when viewing on an iPad font becomes too light to be legible. Is this a problem with the font in the iOS platform? I also tried opening the file in iBooks and got the same outcome.

    Does disabling hardware acceleration have a positive effect or is it still happening?

  • Field type TaxonomyFieldTypeMulti is not installed properly when opening Site columns page or saving site as template

    I have a site collection which I am moving from a SharePoint 2013 enterprise server to a SharePoint 2013 foundation server. This all seems fine apart from when I try and access the Site columns page (from Site settings) or when I save a Site as a template
    - both times I get the error: Field type TaxonomyFieldTypeMulti is not installed properly 
    If I look in the SharePoint logs I get the following:
    Unable to locate the xml-definition for FieldName with FieldId '249a1c1a-5a3e-4173-abad-779b01892510
    Any ideas?
    Many Thanks,
    Jenny

    I have re-done the migration from Enterprise to Foundation and now get the following error:
    Field type RatingCount is not installed properly. Go to the list settings page to delete this field.
    However I cannot go to the Site columns page as I get this error so don't see where I can delete this from? Previously I had to delete this field manually from each of the Blog sites but this time there don't
    appear to be these fields to delete - I presume because I disabled all the features relating to this premigration?
    Any ideas?
    Many thanks in advance,

  • Flash CS5 Crashing when opening a specific .fla file

    I just upgraded from Flash Professional CS4 to CS5.  Everything seemed to be working fine. After upgrading, I started working on a project I had been creating in CS4 on the new CS5.  The file opened originally and I worked on it in the new CS5.  My swf works and the video plays.  All of the external swf files I load in to the Index swf work great.  They were created in the new CS5.  I can open the external swf, .fla files without any problem.  But when I open the one Index file that was created in CS4, Flash CS5 crashes saying there was an unexpected error. I have uninstalled and installed flash several times.  I have tried deleting the com.adobe.flash.plist file and restarting.  Nothing has worked.  I am really afraid I'm going to lose this file and all the work put in to it.  Can anyone help me with some ideas to troubleshoot this?  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks.

    You're still using 12.0.0, and the current version is 12.0.2.
    That looks like a font related crash fixed a while back.

  • Document not showing properly when opening in Acrobat 9 Pro

    When I create a document in InDesign and export it as a PDF, I want to see what it looks like as the PDF. One of the documents that I opened does not look as it should. It only has the photo on the ad but is missing the red background and the words on the ad. As a thumbnail, it looks correct. But, it is not showing up correctly when I open it in Acrobat. Some of the other ads are fine but this one in particular is not showing me all the elements. What do I do to fix this?

    Yes, I have the most current version of AA9. I exported the document from InDesign using the PDF exporter. That is what I have used for years and it has worked fine. I just installed CS4 yesterday.
    I think I realized what the problem is but I don't know how to fix it properly. I actually went back to the preferences in AA9 to the document color options in accessibility and changed it back to its original state (which, I believe, is where nothing is checked). I had originally changed it because I was trying to experiment with the background of the program. It's black and when I open a PDF, I can't see the black border. But I mistakenly changed the document color. Which brings me to the question of: how do you change the background color of the page so that I can see the black border on the document? I sell advertising so I need to be sure that when people send me their ads, they have black borders. And I can't tell when it has the background behind the document so dark. Acrobat Reader has a white background.
    Additionally, can I still install the latest Acrobat Reader and use that instead of AA9 if I want to? It seems easier.

    I have a similar issue.  I have the CS4 Design Premium with all updates on an iMac running 10.6.  All Adobe apps work except for Flash 10.0.2.566.  All apps worked perfectly under 10.5.  Within seconds of loading a file or clicking 'New' Flash terminates generating an Apple crash report (see exerpt below) - not an Adobe crash report.
    Exception Type:  EXC_BAD_ACCESS (SIGBUS)
    Exception Codes: KERN_PROTECTION_FAILURE at 0x0000000000000004
    Crashed Thread:  0  Dispatch queue: com.apple.main-thread
    (BTW, sometimes a normal Quit is interpreted as a crash by the other CS4 apps.  Could this be related?)

  • How do I open a mac .fla file in a pc version of Flash?

    I have files from a class that I took in 2D animation. There are things that I wanted to fix and finish, but the computers that we did the assignments on were macs. I no longer have access to a mac and my computer at home is a pc but whenever I go to open the file, a pop up tells me that its an unexpected file and will not open. Is there anything I can do? Please help.

    Flash CS3 (also know as Flash 9) came out in 2007. So if your class was in the last couple of years you probably used a newer version of Flash to create the file.
    I might be possible to find someone who still has CS3 (assuming that was the version) and they could open the file and save it to Flash 8. Flash can save to one version prior to the current version. Flash 10 saves to 9, and 9 saves to 8 and so on. Of course that is assuming that what you made didn't use some feature that was only available in newer versions of Flash.

  • Music does not sync properly when updated to latest version.  Can see computer but can't play from ipod

    Music does not sync properly when updated to latest version.  Can see on computer but can't play from ipod.

    Hope this helps...
    I was having the same problem where only 1.7GB of 10GB of selected music would sync so I decided to start fresh.  The following steps worked for me:
    1.  Open itunes and connect iphone 5 if not already.  Uncheck all playlists, artists, etc. till nothing is checked to sync.  Then uncheck the sync music box so that all music will be removed from the phone.  Sync iphone
    2.  Eject device. Quit itunes (don't just close). unplug iphone.
    3.  Restart imac, macbook, or PC.
    4.  Restart iphone.
    5.  Now after power up, restart itunes then plug in iphone, check sync music and select music to sync.  Sync iphone
    6.  It worked for me!!!  Good luck.

    If after you charge it for about three hours and it only last about five minutes the battery is probably dead or there could be another hardware problem.  I would go back to the Apple store and ask them specifically how can it be OK if the fully charged battery only lasts five minutes.

    Hello My ipads Power button is not working properly when I press it once it shows option to turn off instead of locking and some other display problems like it suddenly lockes down or display disappears ...Please help. Thank You

    Thanks for that information!
    I'm sure I will be calling AppleCare, but the problem is, they charge for the phone calls don't they? Because I don't have money to be spending to be on the phone with a support service.
    In other things, it seemed like the only time my MacBook was working was when I had Snow Leopard without the 10.6.8 update download that was supposed to be done to prepare for OS X Lion.
    When I look at the information of my HD it says that I have 10.6.8 but that was the install that it claimed to have failed and caused me to restart resulting in all of the repeated problems.
    Also, because my computer is currently down, and I've lost all files how would that effect the use of my iPhone? Because if it doesn't get fixed by the time OS 5 is released, how would I be able to upgrade?!
