Installing font indesing cs6

Hi
i need to install fonts for using on a indesing document, i recevived the fonts, but indesing doesn't recognize them and I have fontexplorer doesn't recognize them too.
I have tried to copy the fonts in the library folder of the systam (mac) and in the fonts folder of indesing, but when opening the document, it says the fonts are missing.Indesign cs6.
I don't know why the files show zero bytes
any idea?
thanks

We used to see this when burning CDs, though it's more than ten years since I worked at that company
Well, looking at the file dates in the screenshot, it's been more than ten years since these files were created. Reassembling resource and data fork is doable, but it's been ten years since I knew how.
fireblade, if you have access to the source Mac then make sure that the files aren't already zero K there. In ye olden days the secret was to avoid zipping and only use Stuffit, but unless the source Mac is running 10.3 or whatever, then I doubt that this trick will help you.
I see a reference to "afm" in that screenshot. I recall that as a dead giveaway that these files were originally compiled on Windows. Did Mac T1 fonts have the separate afm and pfm files as they did on Windows? Once again, this is all too far in the past for me to have clear memories.
Dang it, when did I get old? I forget that, too

  • Importing installed fonts into CS6

    Hello everybody,
    I have acquired InDesign CS6 for a couple of my users and have installed our firm’s standard Marketing font (various weights of HelveticaNeueLTStd) on their PCs and added the font files to the InDesign folder: C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe InDesign CS6\Fonts, installed from there as well, however the fonts do not seem to import into InDesign when it is run.
    I have followed all direction I have found online without any success. 
    Is this something someone has seen before and if so, how did you resolve it?
    Would be most grateful for any help/direction at all.
    Thank you.
    Henry

    Hi P Spier,
    All of that basic stuff done, however I did not delete the .lst file.
    Once that was done and the PC was restarted, my new fonts now appear in InDesign.
    Guess you are Mr FixIt!!!
    Most grateful for your solution.

    PS CS6 has a different set of installed fonts than my old PS CS4.  How do I get my old fonts back?  Don't like most of the newer CS6 fonts.  Dell Precision, Windows 7.  Does PS use the fonts in the Windows directory or does it use its own?  If so, where are they in the directory?  A lot of my preferred fonts show in the Windows directory but not in Photoshop, which does not display them within the program.  Please help.  If I get free fonts (NOT CC fonts) from elsewhere, where do I put them for Photoshop[ CS6 to use them?  Thanks.

    All versions of Photoshop get their fonts from your OS.  Just install any missing font wherever Windows keeps fonts.
    I don't do windows myself.

  • Font Problems: Installed fonts are showing as un-installed in CS6 and are not avaliable to use.

    Hi,
    Installed fonts in the Windows folder(which have been installed for agaes), are now not showing up in Illustrator CS6 since we have installed the suite. The font name shows in the box, but it has an astericks next to it. It is getting annoying not being able to use our regular fonts, as other people from different companies send us their artwork to change, and we can't display the fonts in the file, dispite them beiong "installed" into the system. We have tried re-installing them , and this ocassionaly works once, but when illustrator is re-installed or computer is re-started...they go back to being "unavaliable.
    Please help! Is this a common bug in CS6? It is driving the whole team crazy!

    Delete the system's font cache and any adbefnt.lst files you may find. Also make sure to run with sufficient user privileges.

  • Can't get installed fonts on mac to appear in CS6

    Hi
    I have installed and validated a number of fonts on my mac running maverick. When I go to CS6, they don't appear. I know similar questions have been asked before but I can't find the answer. I do not have a folder under application support/adobe/fonts which is odd. I have installed fonts ok in the past, so unsure why it's not working now. The are .ttf files ans as said I have validated them using fontbook
    cheers
    Phill

    If they are loaded in Fontbook they should be available in Photoshop.
    I do not have a folder under application support/adobe/fonts which is odd.
    When you alt-click Go > Library in the Finder that Folder is missing?

  • How to disable Document Installed Fonts feature

    We store incoming files on a Windows server, one employee opens and makes laser prints of them to be supplied with the job ticket. Then the folder is moved (not copied) into the actual job folder in the same volume on said server. The problem is, the enclosing folder containing the collected indesign job cannot be moved in it's entirety as the server sees files in use. You can move the files piecemeal from the enclosing folder, or copy the whole thing to the desktop, but the enclosing folder & the Document fonts folder cannot be moved until the original employee quits Indesign. This makes a mess of the storage folder as the operators just drag out what they need & is of course, extremely frustrating. The Document Installed fonts feature is nice, but also a problem for us as we do layouts in Illustrator, and the fonts are only available in Indesign without loading them manually, so we have to remember to outline the fonts in Indesign, which is not possible sometimes depending how the file is created etc. The easiest solution is to have the original employee quit Indesign every so often, but I would like to be able to disable The Document Installed fonts if desired.

    What happens if you preceed this step with deletion of the Document Fonts folder from the package?
    Good idea, that would work fine, TY. And Yes Peter, we would make sure to keep those fonts handy.
    I am still interested to find out if there is a way to disable the Document Installed Fonts.

  • I installed font it shows in list but in css doesnt work

    Hello I am new to dreamweaver, I install font Paint Drips in windows and dreamweaver CS6 when I choose the font in list in css font-family the font doesnt change on webpage. The css font-family name is Paintdrp and it doesnt work. Any help will be appreciated.

    You have a link to your main_template.css file before the <head> section starts, that's a relatively big no-no. Move that link into your <head> </head> section.
    Your "Backhand Brush" font-family will only work on a machine where that font is installed, you have no link to a webfont or @font-face rule in your css. Here are some resources to help you get that working...
    CSS3 Web Fonts
    CSS3 @font-face Rule
    There is no "Paintdrp" font anywhere in your css, is this the most recent version of the file you're working on?
    You have other errors in your code, run the validator at http://validator.w3.org to find them and fix them, mainly html text content, the horizontal bars, are in an invalid location between an ending </li> and before the next line items starting <li>, you can't have content in that location.

    I installed Adobe Photoshop CS6 on MacBook Pro, OS 10.7.5. Now my DVD player will not work. Any ideas?

    Problem solved. Yes, it was a coincidence. The problem had to do with my DVD preferences, not the Adobe installation. Thanks for your reply.

  • Problem installing my adobe CS6 design standard

    I am having trouble installing my adobe CS6 design onto my computer. It'll successfully download, then once I click to install, it'll install and then prompt me to enter my serial #, after that it says my serial # is valid but the qualifying product cannot be found on the computer. It gives me an option to choose the product i own in a drop down menu and alongside to enter the serial number for the product. The drop down menu doesn't even list the product I bought. I'm stuck at this point, please help!!!

    No, if you had the CS5 installed you would not have to do the confirmation of having the qualifying version, but I do not recommend installing CS5 just for that.  MAke sure you are providing the CS5 serial number and not the CS6 number for the qualifying version information.  If you continue to have a problem try contacting Adobe Support thru chat and they should be able to resolve the matter with you.

  • Please help! Installed fonts just stopped showing up in CS4 MAC, how do i get them back?

    Hi there,
    I'm on a MacBook Pro running OS X 10.6.8
    still on Adobe CS4, i initially had problems getting CS4 to see my installed fonts when upgraded to Snow Lepoard, googled the problem, tried several different things for hours - something worked not sure what exactly but CS4 started seeing all of my installed fonts.
    Now all of a sudden, they are not showing up again, i have not downloaded anything, installed anything, moved anything - were all there and working last week, and then this week they are not.
    I have 1060 fonts installed - work for an agency with hundreds of different clients so need a lot of fonts. Am not using any font manager - just fontbook, is that the issue? all 1060 fonts are showing up as installed in Fontbook....
    I have some fonts in HD>library>fonts, and also fonts in user>library>fonts, could this be the issue? is it best to have them in just one place? if so which folder is best to have all fonts in?
    I know indesign has its own font folder - which is now where it seems to be reading fonts from, and illustrator is reading its fonts from somewhere else - only about 30-40 are showing up there, system fonts folder i'm guessing?
    How can i get indesign and illustrator to read fonts from my actual font libraries?
    any help is much appreciated! Our graphic design team of 2 are the only ones on macs so all our IT support guys are PC based and never know anything on how to fix mac issues so i'm on my own with this issue!
    Thanks
    Mel

    If you are managing fonts with font book, then all should be well. Something else is going on. Try installing Onyx and use that to delete all your caches including your font cache. You willl need to restart your computer after clearing your caches.

  • I'm a new user and learning, I bought and installed Premiere Pro cs6.  I got a nice video clip but has a baby cried in the background and very annoying.  My question is, is this noise remover is separate from the cs6 or I need to get this software downloa

    I'm a new user and learning, I bought and installed Premiere Pro cs6.  I got a nice video clip but has a baby cried in the background and very annoying.  I have tried all of the sounds in Prem cs6 but didn't work. My question is, do I need to get a separate sound software download and install to be able to use it?

    In the CS versions, there was some audio capability in PrPro but you needed to get a separate audio program for major work. Lessening a baby definitely qualifies as major work. That's lessening, i dont mean eliminating. Adobe's audio program is Audition. There are others "out there'. In the CC versions one just downloads Audution also.

    If you want them available for all users then drop them in the /Library/Fonts/ folder. If you want them available only for you then put them in the /Home/Library/Fonts/ folder.

  • Problem with installing adobe illustrator cs6?

    I am having trouble installing adobe illustrator cs6.When it gets to 2% it says "the setup encountered an error (37) during install. Please restart the machine and try again." I tried restarting my computer but it still shows that message.
    Also at the beginning it said "Installer has detected that a machine restart may be pending.It is recommended that you quit the installer, restart and try again" and i clicked ignore and continue.
    When i installed adobe photoshop cs6 last year it was successful.
