Lightroom 6 - Missing fonts with Extensis Suitcase Fusion 6

Upgrade today from LR5 to LR6 CC and have lost lots of fonts! Understand an old problem, but can't find recent solution. I still have all fonts in Photoshop CC after update. How do I get my fonts back? They still appear in LR5.

Suitcase Fusion 5 v. 16.1.0. I'll check if there's been another update. But I'd installed one not long ago.
It turned out that turning the font off in Suitcase and back on again made it show up in the menu -- which at least worked once. But it doesn't explain why they all disappeared in the first place.
The problem does now appear to be at the Suitcase end, though because when I relaunched Photoshop they were missing there as well.
I certainly wasn't aware of any hiccups or power glitches, and Suitcase had been running the whole time.

  • Extensis Suitcase Fusion will not launch after updating to 10.5.7

    Just recently updated to OS 10.5.7 and now I can't launch Extensis Suitcase Fusion software. Repaired permissions and hard drive, removed Suitcase from the login items list in my account under System Preferences, reinstalled Suitcase and updated to latest version (12.1.7), but still not working. Can't delete preferences file for Suitcase because it doesn't appear on my hard drive. Found a recommendation to click on RESET_SUITCASE script but that script doesn't appear on hard drive either.
    Anyone else with similar Suitcase issues and a potential solution?
    Many thanks in advance!

    Hi and thanks. I had already been to Extensis and read that article...couldn't perform recommended steps since there seems to be no preferences file for Suitcase on my hard drive.
    No surprise that Extensis recommends an upgrade fix. I will hold out for now in hopes that someone out there has just the trick I need.
    I appreciate that software/hardware developers are anxious to give us the latest and greatest at every turn, but am getting a little weary of trying to keep up with all the upgrades, especially when one seems to continually lead to another...
    In any case, thanks again. Anyone with any other suggestions, please share. Thanks!

  • InDesign CS5 vs Extensis Suitcase Fusion

    Does anybody know if there is a solution for auto activation problems within InDesign CS5, used together with Extensis Suitcase Fuison (v12.1.7)?
    The InDesign Plugins for auto activation which go with the Suitcase package go from CS till CS3. With our new CS5 I can't find any Plugin that will make auto activation work. Unfortunately the Extensis website doesn't seem to have a plugin available (anymore).

    You can't use earlier plugins. If Extensis hasn't updated them then you'll need to upgrade or live without it.
    FWIW, I wrote a review of Suitcase Fusion 3 for Creative Pro: http://www.creativepro.com/article/review-extensis-suitcase-fusion-3

  • Replace missing font with font of my choice in Photoshop CS5

    I'm using Photoshop CS5. How can I replace all instances of a missing font with a font of my choice?

    I am having the same problem. From what I read around the web, there is supposed to be a dialogue box which opens to ask which font you want to use. I don't get a dalogue box, it simply replaces the missing fonts automatically with Myriad Pro without asking which font I want to use. If anyone knows how to get the dialogue box to appear, I'd appreciate the help.
    I am using CC.
    Thanks!

  • Why can't I replace missing fonts with my desktop fonts?

    I just updated to CC 2014 which implemented the new Typekit features. Now "Find Font" is "Resolve missing fonts..." which only allows missing fonts to be replaced with Typekit fonts or other fonts already found in the document.
    Am I the only one who finds this ridiculous? I have a document with the 'Avenir Next Pro' font missing, but have no way to change all instances to the "Avenir Next" font that I have installed on my computer.
    The only thing that seems to work, is to select each instance of the missing font and then change the font in the character menu. Or to change one text layer and then use "Resolve missing fonts..." to select the font that has now become an option that
    it exists in the document. Both processes work, but they're heavy handed and leave a lot of room for human error. Plus they're frickin' annoying!
    What gives, Adobe?
    - a confused and grumpy, lazy designer.

    No you're not the only one who finds this ridiculous. Font replacement in other Adobe apps works absolutely fine, so why is the Photoshop team intent on making this into a difficult useless feature?

  • Replace missing fonts with default fonts

    I used fonts in my document that were not downloaded to my computer.  I would like to replace these fonts with the default fonts that the computer automatically substituted.  Is there any way to find out what fonts were used to make these substitutions?

    I realize this is an old post, but maybe it will still help.
    Was looking for the same functionality in Photoshop as in InDesign, where upon selecting "Replace all Missing Fonts", there would be a dialog box allowing me to choose the fonts to replace to. Instead, it just arbitrarily selects "Myriad Pro", regardless.
    My solve, as clunky as it is, worked OK if your whole document uses the same font for everything. E.g. a font across multiple slides of a presentation.
    Using the newer filtering options in the Layer menu, select the "Filter for Type layers".
    Select all the type layers with the yellow triangle warning.
    Go to your Type menu and select the font you want to replace to.
    You will be prompted for each layer to confirm the change, get ready to hit "OK" a lot of times.
    Click on the "Filter for Type Layers" option again to restore your full menu list.
    Should take care of the issue.
    With that said, this is a feature request that is well overdue!

  • How to replace missing fonts with a specific font (and not a suggested font)

    Hello all!
    Looking to replace missing fonts within my document - but the drop-down selection only gives a couple of suggestions, none of which are the font I want to use.
    How can I replace the fonts with a font of my choosing?
    I've attached an image to give more clarity - notice how the drop-down only gives the option to select between 3 fonts without an option to select your own font - many thanks!

    Same problem! The only solution I found is to prepare a textbox in a new file with all the font you need. Copy and past in the file you need to change font. Go to type/risolve missing font. Will open the same window in the pic you pasted. Then you find the font in the dropdown menu. I have to change all the Helvetica family ...it's a long go. If some one could save me. Hope to be usefull to your problem.

  • CS3 is replacing missing fonts with Myriad

    I am opening a file that uses some fonts that are missing. OK, and I get the warning message to that effect. Normally CS3 shows the alert badge on the layer and if the layer is selected & type tool active, it will show you the missing font name in brackets. BUT now when the file opens, there are no alert badges and the fonts are all changed to Myriad!
    I tried deleting my prefs but that didn't help.

    We received similar issue before http://forums.adobe.com/message/3024227#3024227
    Do you have Font Agent Pro? If you do, please remove Font Agent Pro plug-in from Photoshop Plug-ins folder and try.
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks,

  • Suitcase Fusion Question

    I recently was deleting fonts from Extensis Suitcase Fusion. Apparently, at some point, I tossed a font that upset Fusion. Now whenever I try to access the app. (to add a folder, font, etc.) I get a "Connection Failed" notice that reads–
    "The server may not exist or it is not operational at this time. Check the server name or IP address and your network connection and try again."
    This pop-up prevents me from doing anything with Fusion.
    I am not, and never have been, connected to a server.
    My computer is an iMac.
    Any thoughts?

  • Anyone having issues with InDesign (CS5) and Suitcase Fusion 3 (Mac)?

    I've run into a problem that I think might be caused by Suitcase Fusion 3 [Version 14.2.0 (319)], but I'm wondering if anyone here is having any issues with InDesign and Suitcase Fusion like I am?
    Just about every time I launch an InDesign document or an Illustrator document (don't seem to have the issue in Photoshop, strangely enough) it pretty much crashes to the point where it's a force quit. Before anyone asks the question, this is what I've done - I've reformatted my hard disk (even writing 0s!), done a clean install of Lion (10.7.3), clean install of Creative Suite 5 (and updates), clean install of Suitcase (and updates)...you get the idea. I'm still ending up with crashing just about every time I open a document in these two apps.
    As an experiment I downloaded a (fully functioning) trial version of FontAgent Pro (which I didn't like, btw) and didn't encounter any crashing at all in either application.
    I've opened a ticket with Adobe to see if they have any details as to whether this is a known conflict or whatever (though I don't hold much hope for getting help from them since it's looking more like a Suitcase issue than a Creative Suite one).
    Does anybody have any suggestions as to what I can do to try and resolve this?
    I'm in the middle of producing two magazines and I really really don't need this! Lol

    From the lovely people at Extensis tech support -
    Thanks for the info. As you said, if this is happening when you have only manually activated fonts, then the auto-activation isn't coming into play which does lead me to think it is related to the plug-in generally and maybe the sleep issue, which you say you definitely have. So I've added you to the sleep issue tracking.
    If you find yourself coming back from putting the computer to sleep and the apps with Suitcase plugins have hung, do this:
    1)      Go to your spotlight and type in "activity"
    2)      Launch "Activity Monitor"
    3)      Highlight the name of the adobe/quark application that is hanging by clicking it.
    4)      Click the "Sample Process" button at the top of the screen.
    5)      Click the "Save" button.
    6)      Click the "Save" button again and save the file to your desktop.
    7)      This will generate a file such as " Sample of Adobe Illustrator CS5.txt"
    8)      Repeat this process with any other application that is hanging.
    9)      Highlight the "FMCore" process by clicking it.
    10)  Click the "Sample Process" button at the top of the screen.
    11)  Click the "Save" button.
    12)  Click the "Save" button again and save the file to your desktop.
    13)  This will generate a file named " Sample of FMCore.txt"
    14)  Place these files along with the ".Plugins.txt" files created earlier into a new folder called "Plugins"
    15)  Right click (control+click) to compress into a .zip file.  
    Please attach this zip in reply to this mail.
    When we are sure of a fix, we'll get back to you. In the meantime here are some workarounds:
    Option 1:
    1)      Back up your font sets by dragging them to the desktop
    2)      Remove SF3 v14.2 by following the instructions here: 
    http://www.extensis.com/en/support/kb_article.jsp?articleNumber=4020
    3)      Download and re-install Suitcase Fusion 3 (version 14.0.6) from: 
    http://dl.extensis.com/downloads/ST/EN/M/SuitcaseFusion3-M-1406-EN.zip
    4)      Are there fonts and font sets in your old font vault you would like to recover?
    If NO :
    a)      Open SF3
    b)      Simply drag and drop your original fonts into the SF3 "Font Library". This will copy the fonts into a new font vault.
    If YES : Restore your old fontvault from the backup the removal tool created
    a)      If you choose "Y" to KEEP your font vault earlier when you ran the removal script, on your desktop you will find a folder called "Extensis-Backup-today's date" that contains a backup of your previous suitcase fusion 3 fontvault.
    b)      Move your old font vault from the "Extensis-Backup-today's date" folder on your desktop into this folder: 
    /Users/[your username]/Library/Extensis/Suitcase Fusion/Suitcase Fusion.fontvault
    c)       Launch SF3 from your dock. you should now see all your old fonts and font sets.
    Option 2:
    Remove our auto-activation plugins and activate your fonts manually in SF3 and/or add your adobe/quark apps to the SF3 > Preferences > General > Global Auto-Activation Options list. here's how:
    1)      In SF3: choose Suitcase Fusion 3 > Manage Plugins
    2)      Uncheck the boxes for adobe/quark apps; this will remove our auto-activation plugins
    3)      Choose SF3 > Preferences > General
    4)      Under "Global Auto-Activation Options", press the "+" button to add your adobe/quark apps
    Please note that "global auto-activation" is less accurate than our plugin-based auto-activation. Double check your font usage in your design app to confirm the correct font was loaded after opening a document.

  • Suitcase Fusion 3 for fonts slowing down Illustrator?

    I'm working on a PC in windows 7 and using CS5. I have Extensis Suitcase Fusion 3 for font management but someone told me that this may be why my Illustrator in particular is so slow. I frequently have to sit and wait for it to catch up to me while the top title bar says "Not responding".
    Can anyone comment on this? I don't want to give up my suitcase font manager - I really like it. Surely these programs can get along??

    Sorry that Illustrator is being slow for you. If you think that that Suitcase is causing the problem. I would do two things.
    1. Ensure that your version of Suitcase was built to work with your version of Illustrator.

    2. If they are compatible, and you still think that it's Suitcase, please contact Extensis support.

  • Suitcase Fusion is missing and will not launch

    I had to do a hard reboot and now my Extensis suitcase fusion is gone from the bar and when I try and launch it from the documents folder nothing happens.
    The prompt I get when I launch Illustrator is: Some plugins in add pluging folder are conflicting with application or user plugins.
    Also Get: Suitcase fusion plug in could not locate a copy of the suitcase fusion folder.
    Help please I need my fonts back.

    You should be able to download the installer and just enter in your activation codes, though it's been a while since I've used Suitcase so perhaps they've changed their licensing procedures.
    If if reinstalling doesn't fix the problem, then unless someone else here has a suggestion, you'll probably need to contact Extensis support and ask if there's any way to recover.

  • InDesign CC crashes with Suitcase Fusion 5-16.0.4

    After upgrading Extensis Suitcase Fusion 5 from 16.0.2 to 16.0.4, InDesign CC (latest version) crashes just after launch.
    It seems that it comes from the Suicase font activation plugin.
    Does anyone have the same trouble? Or anyone have the same configuration without trouble?

    I had same problem.
    After deleting Cache it was working again.
    Remove following Folder, it gets recreated when you restart InDesign.

  • InDesign CS5 Mac & Suitcase Fusion 3.0 - Crashing when exporting PDFs

    Hi there, experts in InDesign
    I work as a professional graphic designer on a mac with inDesign. I make my living with exporting highres PDF files and sending them to the printers.
    When I activate Extensis Suitcase fusion plug-ins, inDesign constantly crashes when I try to save PDFs. No matter how many pages, no matter how many fonts activated or used in the document.
    Extensis support ist not really helpfull. After weeks of insisting, I have somebody who says, he's trying to take care. No solutions found yet.
    The only thing is, to deactivate the plugins and switch fonts on or off manualy.
    Anyone made the same frustrating experiences?
    Anyone who knows, what causes the troubles?
    Any hint is appreciated very much
    Thank you
