Missing font - how to repair?

I'm using Illustrator CS4. Suddenly the font One Stroke Script Let Plain has gone missing. How can I repair it?

That's not a standard font and you will simply have to find it/ buy it again from wherever you originally got it from and install it.

Missing fonts: How to switch off the coloured background?

Hallo!
I am making JPEG-Snapshots of InDesign CS4 documents.
But whe a font is missing the text has a background colour.
Does anybody know how to switch of the background colour for text with missing fonts?
Thanks,
Alois Blaimer

Hi Alois,
I would expect this is due to kBNTextAdornmentBoss. Please verify and use kRemovePageItemAdornmentCmdBoss to remove the adornment from whereever they are applied to (story / textframe / ...).

Missing Fonts- How can I delete the message

Hello,
If I start up some documents PAGES always aks for a specific Font-Type, which I do not have and I do not need in the document.
Any solutions?
The best
Bernhard

Fonts are used within different structures in the documents, as I mentioned in Suz.'s post. Fonts used in pages include fonts installed within the System folder as part of the iWork installation and they can be mispllaced/deleted when you do an archive and install of the system.
The easiest way to reintegrate those fonts is to reinstall iWork, or if you have a Previous Systems Folder after an archive and install, they will be in that folder. If you don't want to lose your current iwork installation, rename the iwork folder/programs in the application folder, reinstall, delete the installed programs and rename the old ones back.
Like I said, this is the easiest route.

How do I recover missing fonts?

I have Appleworks 6 (original disc for SYS 9 + online update for Panther (6.2.9).
Recently I discovered that some of my original fonts are missing, in particular Palantino. How might I go about recovering this font without losing my custom templates, etc.? It does not show up in any of my font libraries, but it DOES show up in Appleworks 6 on my other user's account when Appleworks is launched in his setup, although it does not appear to show up in any of his font libraries either.
Thanks for any and all suggestions.

Palatino is a font that has been installed with the Mac OS as far back as I can remember (System 7.0 in 1992). As a matter of fact, I have Palatino in both my OS 9 System Folder/Fonts & HD/Library/Fonts. Font Book in OS X shows both & their locations by "hovering" the cursor on the font name. Is it possible that Palatino is in the other user's Home > Library > Fonts. This would make the font available only to that user.
As far as AppleWorks opening the templates, it will open them, but substitute any missing font.

PSE uses the fonts on your computer, so if you install Rockwell there, PSE should pick it up.

My iBooks will not open, I receive a message that states: "Failed to load book because t he requested resource is missing." How can this be repaired/resolved?

If you can't open a particular ibook then try deleting it from the bookshelf via the Edit button at the top right of the bookshelf, and (assuming that it's still in your country's store) redownload it via the Purchased tab in the ibookstore in the app (or if you have a copy of it on your computer's iTunes library sync it back from there).

How to Add Missing Fonts

Hello!
I read through a bunch of other posts but haven't been able to fix my problem. I use Pages to design a project that I turn in each Friday. Today I opened last week's Pages file to update my project for this week and it says:
"The following errors occurred while trying to open this document:
Missing Font -- Hoefler Text-Regular
Missing Font -- Baskerville"
Etc. Lots of missing fonts.
It tells me "To include missing fonts, add them to your Fonts folder, then quit and reopen Pages."
I have no idea how to add a font to my fonts folder or even where my fonts folder is. And where do I get the font? I am so confused! Somebody please help me!
Thanks!

Welcome to Apple Discussions, mowriter.
Open FontBook from the Applications folder and check the font collections "All Fonts" and "User".
Hoefler Text, e.g. is found in my "All Fonts" collection and it even contains duplicates from Mac OS 9 system folder (marked with a black dot).
Maybe you've just disabled the fonts that Pages requests.
If this information is useful to you, please mark it as "helpful" or "solved" using the little buttons in the titlebar of my message. Thank you.

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.

How to supress dialog window "missing fonts"

Hi, i place a RTF file using scripting. When the RTF uses fonts, which are not available a dialog windows appears "missing font: ... substitute fonts..." and the script stops.
How can i supress/disable this dialog window?
Is there are general mechanism to supress dialog windows, when scripts are running?
Thanks!
Gerd

Hi Gerd,
suppress the message with
app.scriptPreferences.userInteractionLevel = UserInteractionLevels.NEVER_INTERACT;
But dont't forget to reset the interaction level before finishing the script:
app.scriptPreferences.userInteractionLevel = UserInteractionLevels.INTERACT_WITH_ALL;
Otherwise you will miss some dialogs in future.

How do I find where a missing font was used?

For an example, download the Property Owner Application form from http://www.atlantahousing.org/housingchoice/landlords/index.cfm?Fuseaction=forms
When opened in LiveCycle Designer, I get a message that Kozuka Gothic Pro-VI M (Regular) is missing. I don't see a way of searching for a font in LiveCycle, so I opened it up in Illustrator, thinking I would get a missing font message ... but I didn't. And when opened in regular Acrobat and looking at the Properties > Fonts list, it doesn't appear there either.
It's not causing any problem that I can see, but I'd like to get rid of it. Or maybe this is a font used by the application for some special symbol? Anyone khow to find it, or what's going on?

Hi,
I haven't downloaded the form, but if you can open the form in LC Designer then go to the XML Source tab and do a search there for "Kozu". If the font is used, it will definetly show up in the XML Source. Note that while in XML Source you will be able to look up and down and identify the object that contains the font.
If you find it there, amend it for something else like Myriad Pro and see what happens.
Good luck,
Niall

Missing fonts in CS4 – how to install?

Hi all,
Apologies for asking a question that I've seen posted and answered, but I'm wondering if there is a simpler solution than the plug-in suggested.
I have lost a few of the fonts I regularly use. They appear in Font Book and are enabled, but they are not available in InDesign. The missing fonts are available to me in other programs (e.g Word) so they are definitely on the system.
I was given advice to check in Home > Library > Application Support > Adobe > InDesign > Fonts, but there is no folder called "InDesign" within the Adobe folder of that path, so I don't know if that was good advice.
Of course (always the way, isn't it?) I've noticed this problem one week out from my deadline to the printer, so would really appreciate resolving it quickly.
Thank you in advance,
Andrew

Well, if your goal is to make the problem go away without
understanding it, thus reducing the liklihood you'll understand the
cause and prevent it from recurring in the future...
"Sometimes they get sleepy" is an attitude that really bothers me at a
deep level. Programs shouldn't break. And when they do, we should make
the effort to understand why they do. And report those problems back
to the manufacturers, who should be given the opportunity to fix
them. Even if we think they won't.
Programs break for reasons. Sometimes complicated and tricky
reasons. Sometimes reasons we can't actually figure out. But sometimes
reasons that we can. And we need to take the effort to figure out
why. Or at least try to a reasonable effort.
It is our moral duty. Otherwise the programmers who author the
software will have no opportunity to fix the problems, and thousands
of user across this green earth will be forced to deal with the same
problems we deal with regularly, for years and years, all because no
one was willing to take the minimal effort to figure out what was
broken and why.
Don't lie down and say "oh, it just broken again, I accept that i have
to jump through this hoop to fix it periodically." That's just not the
way it should work, and it doesn't have to be that way.

How to Change the (Missing) Font in Endnotes

Hello and thanks (again) in advance,
My preflight report showed that I have 170 errors: they are all missing fonts in the numbers of the endnotes.
Some of the Endnotes are in the Times New Roman Font, but for some reason, 170 endnotes are not. This is a font problem with the "number" part of the endnotes -- the text in the endnotes is all Times New Roman.
What I would like to do is to change the font from the missing one (Cambria Regular) to Times New Roman.
The endnotes were imported when I placed this MS-Word document into InDesign.
Here's what I tried, that failed:
1. Fix the font problem when I opened the file, and InDesign showed missing fonts. (This fixed the fonts -- changed them from Cambria to Times New Roman) for all the text, but did not touch the numbers in the endnotes.
2. Search and Replace for the number of the Endnote -- the numbers were ignored by the search.
3. Search and Replace for the number of the Endnote, with the "Include Footnotes" button highlighted
4. Search and Replace for Cambia Regular text (although I might not have done that correctly.) ... I left the "Find What" box blank, and in the "Find Format" box I selected Cambria Regular. ... Nothing was found.
5. I deleted one of the numbers -- endnote 202 -- "by hand", and then retyped the number. This did change the font, but it had the bad effect of ruining the endnote numbering system: it made the next endnote (number 203) below it into number "1" and the endnote after that "2"
Also, I wondered if it "broke" the entire endnote system -- If there is some connection between the number that I deleted, and the corresponding superscript number in the text itself.
Here (below) is a screen shot of my pre-flight report.
You can see that some of the numbers in the endnotes, (for example: 200 and 202) are in the correct font; but endnote numbers 201, 203, 204 are not in Times New Roman.
I am stuck ... Suggestions are welcome and appreciated !
ZtG

Since ID doesn't really support endnotes, I suspect they were imported as a numbered list, particulary considering the uselectablility and find/change sympotoms you describe. Bullets and numbers in lists aren't "real" characters that can selected.
Find font should probably have done the trick if the numbers were assigned a style in the list definition AND you checked the update styles when changing all box in Find Font, so I'm also going to guess that you either didn't check the box or there is no style assigned to the numbers (and I suppose it's possible they aren't really a list).
The best solution would be, I think, to first verify that they the endnotes are a list, and to assign a character style to the numbers.

How to avoid missing font dialog box(alert) while running the script??

Hi....
     In Illustrator CS4 ,I tried to skip missing font dialog box(alert box) by using the following script .But,I could not skip the dialog box
So if you have any suggestion about this let me know..
tell application "Finder"
set user interaction level to never interact
    activate
    set fileName to (path to desktop folder as string) & "fer11757_f1208.eps"
    --set user interaction level to never interact
    --    set user interaction level of script preferences to never interact
    open file fileName
    --set alert missing fonts to true
    set user interaction level to never interact
    activate
end tell
display dialog ("completed")
end tell
Thanks,
Mubeen

Does this NOT error when run? Your target application here is 'Finder' Apple's system file browser and you are giving it Adobe illustrator commands?
Im not 100% about the versioning with Illustrator installs I think they are all just…
Tell application "Adobe Illustrator" -- No CS Versioning?
     -- do stuff here
end tell
you could check by just picking the app from this list
choose application

Missing fonts in Keynote file : how to replace them ?

When opening a Keynote file that had fonts not installed on the system, an alert window used to open.
You could then easily replace the missing fonts with other ones installed.
Not anymore !
The alert window still appears in Keynote V6, but the "replace font" option is missing.
Does anyone know a workaround ?

yeah, I tried the whole modifying the master slide thing but the missing fonts aren't on there, they would have come from slides I deleted as well or already replaced the fonts on so not sure why they are lingering....
oh wait...I think I might have just figured out something. The whole "revert to previous version" wouldn't that have something to do with still remembering fonts used in a previous version? I'm going to try and see if I can duplicate the current document in some way that makes it a new version with no history in it.
Other than that I was going to try exporting to '09 do the replace fonts tool that was in there and then open it back up but I'll have to modify the transitions and shadows that were new to current version of keynote.
