Missing font in incopy windows

hello everyone,
i've got another problem. I have 10 installations of Incopy PC (Win XP Prof) and installed severall (41) OpenType-fonts on these PCs.On 2 PCs everything works fine - Incopy recognises the fonts, but on 8 PCs 2 of the fonts where not seen in Incopy.
It is the Soho Std Regular and the Soho Std Bold. I don't use any Fontmanager on Windows. Does anyone have an Idea how to get the other 8 PCs working?
Thanks
Robby

i've installed the fonts into the c:windows\fonts folder - worked fine for all the others.
but i got a solution a few minutes ago. i' ve copied the fonts which are not working into the programms\adobe\incopy\fonts folder
than incopy is recognising the fonts
cheers robby

Missing fonts in Windows InDesign CC'14 vs OSX

We are a school with about 500 Windows 7 machines. We also have an iMac suite (about 25 strong). We have a Creative Cloud subscription and have deployed it to all of our computer suites and our iMac suite. CC 2014 versions of the relevant products have all been pushed out, so there should be parity between the two platforms.
Our problem is that our Windows clients are outright missing 90% of the TrueType fonts that are available on the OSX (Mavericks) clients. Most of the Media classes are taken in the iMac suite, and therefore the majority of their content has been created in there, but two or three times per week the classes rotate to a Windows suite. Some students are encountering issues where fonts are missing after opening their INDDs in InDesign for Windows.
I discovered that InDesign for OSX has vastly more fonts than on its Windows counterpart, specifically of the TrueType variety. About 90% of the TrueType fonts on Windows were missing. As far as I could tell, all of the OpenType fonts matched.
Students get the follow dialogue when they launch InDesign with a missing font:
So yeah, that's my issue. I've literally spent all afternoon researching this issue to no avail and am pretty much stumped at this point.
Any help and advice will be more than appreciated!
Thanks for reading.

Early on in the life of Mac OS X (which has been around for over 10 years in multiple versions—we're now at 10.10), Apple advertised how many beautiful fonts were available with Mac OS X. And, it's true, they do install a lot of TrueType fonts.
Microsoft provides much fewer. As far as I can tell, most of them are installed with you install Microsoft Office products.
It's just the way it is.
I guess you could show students a list of the fonts installed with Creative Cloud apps (Minion Pro, Myriad Pro, etc.). You could also teach them about downloading Typeset fonts (although they won't be able to carry those to another location which doesn't have a CC subscription).

CS3: Find Font window on open, no missing fonts.

Is there a way to tell Illustrator not to show the Find Font window when tere are no missing fonts? It's only a whole lot frustrating and annoying.
I'm sure the fonts are activated in Suitcase Fusion (only just slightly less crappy a an option than no font manager at all). Even if they're not and are auto-activated, the problem occurs with three nearly identical files. If fonts were activated opening the first file, then the next two should be fine. If I then close the files then reopen I get the Find Font window again, so auto-activation has nothing to do with it.

My solution has always been to hit cancel and just re-open the file(s) I think Illy looks, sees missing fonts, kicks up the warning, then talks to your font manager, so that the warning will come up even though the font manager is working on it...
Is there a setting in Suitcase that keeps fonts open through a whole session (like until you quit suitcase) rather than closing them when you close the file (as it sounds like is happening for you) I haven't used suitcase since X1 or the one before that, but I seem to remember that closing the offending file and reopening it would work...
edit: on re-reading your post, is there the possibility of conflicting fonts, as in ps and tt versions of the same font? One may be activated, but it may be looking for the other.

HT203175 My ITunes software on my Dell computer is not displaying the menu items or the windows content of my music. The menus are active, but you cannot see the choices. I suspect a missing font set. Any suggestions before I trash the whole environmen

Loading the last two versions of the ITunes software to my Dell computer has produced unacceptable results. None of the pull down menus are showing the menu choices and none of the content on my IPod Touch shows up in the appropriate window. As a result, I have an interface with no functionality. It does still sync my Touch but that is all. I assume a missing font set. Any suggestions on how to correct these issues.
I also now get a message that ITunes cannot play back anything on my computer and a request to reinstall the software - which I have done multiple times both the original and the upgrade.

I'm not sure if it charged when I hooked it up to my roommate's computer, but it definately didn't register either. If I put it on the dock it plays so the port is fine, but that still doesn't help me sync it to my computer.

Adobe InCopy CS4 Missing Fonts...

I have a few users who are dealing with an InCopy file provided by a third party vendor who does their Marketing gazettes and logos, etc... Upon purchasing InCopy CS4, when opening the document provided, they receive a message stating "Missing Fonts" and they include:
Franklin Gothic Extra Condensed
ITC Franklin Gothic (T1) Demi
ITC Franklin Gothic (T1) Heavy
Helvetica Neue (T1) 27 Ultra Light Condensed
Helvetica Neue (T1) 97 Black Condensed
Helvetica Neue (T1) 57 Condensed
Helvetica Neue (T1) 37 Thin Condensed Oblique
Helvetica Neue (T1) 57 Condensed Oblique
Helvetica Neue (T1) 47 Light Condensed Oblique
Helvetica Neue (T1) 47 Light Condensed
Helvetica Neue (T1) 65 Medium
Helvetica Neue (T1) 77 Bold Condensed
I had went to MyFonts.com and downloaded one to test: Franklin Gothic Extra Condensed. The link to the one that I had purchased is here: http://www.myfonts.com/fonts/bitstream/franklin-gothic/extra-condensed/
The font is installed, but Adobe does not see it. MS Word sees the font fine along with other applications. Did I purchase the wrong font or am I not doing something right with Adobe?
I have been working with this issue for a few weeks now, and are willing to try whatever I can to get the font seen by the application.
Any help with this would be much appreciated, or simliar approaches to the same problem.
-E ([email protected])

I am having a similar problem. I get the list of "missing" fonts. Problem is, I have them installed but in a couple of cases the names are slightly different.
InCopy sees the fonts, but I can't for the life of me figure out how to substitute them, let alone permanently.

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.

Photoshop CC: Missing Fonts on Startup, only a few fonts are displayed as replacement options

I have a Photoshop document which uses some Fonts that I don't have on my Windows PC. When I open the document, I get a Dialog Box called "Missing Fonts", which states:
"Some fonts used in this document are missing. You can sync matching fonts from Typekit, or replace missing fonts with a default or different font used in this document"
This text suggests that I can only replace missing fonts with other fonts already being used in this document. However, I want to replace a missing font with a font that is not yet used in this document. Why can I only replace a missing font with another font already used in the document? For example, I want to replace "Helvetica Neue" with "Liberation Sans", however Liberation Sans is not offered in the Dropdown box, even though it is installed, as it is not yet used in the document. What is the point of only allowing to replace a missing font with a font that is already used in the document, and not with any font installed on the system??
Thanks,
best regards,
Chris

I'm a windows user so I do not know the Adobe Photoshop environment on the Mac or the versions of Mac OS. The only suggestion I could make would then be try using Adobe Cleaner to clean off Photoshop then install Photoshop Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6

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.

Missing Fonts in Illustrator CS4

I have been having an issue with the "missing font"
My problem is that Illustrator recognizes the fonts sometimes and not other times. I have had no problems for the past week or so and I just restarted my computer and now a number of fonts that worked fine suddenly are replaced with the "missing font" default.
The fonts I'm currently concerned with are all in the default LaTeX family (i.e. cmr10, cmmi10, cmbx10, etc...) I have all of them installed on my computer and they work fine in every other application.
Does anyone have any idea what is going on or how I can solve this problem? Why does illustrator "lose" them and how do I get them back? !!
Thanks!

Thanks for the link. I'm actually using Windows 7 and in the mean time my illustrator "found" the fonts again (still can't figure out why). I don't know how well the solutions for the Mac OS will work but I'll take a look. If anyone else comes up with an answer I'd love to hear it!
Thanks!

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.

Missing Font, But Font Isn't In the Document

Hello,
We're all using FrameMaker 10 on Windows 7.
My client and I are receiving the good old missing fonts error message, specifically:
The "ITC Stone Serif Std Medium Ital Italic" Font is not available.
It will be replaced by "Times New Roman Italic".
The "ITC Stone Sans Std Semibold" Font is not available.
It will be replaced by "Times New Roman".
First, the fonts are installed.
Second, Remember Missing Font Names is turned OFF. (Unchecked, cleared, etc.)
Third, the fonts are NOT in the document. I have saved the document as MIF. I have searched for the font names. Nothing. When I open the MIF file in FM, I don't get an error. But I save it as a .fm file, open it, and I receive the same error messages.
We don't use these fonts. We don't want them in our documents. I'm doing a massive clean up to get rid of old formats. About half of the files do not have any problems, but half do. I have tried everything:
- Generating a list of fonts. If the fonts are found, then I go in and manually apply the Default Para Font. Usually, doing this removes the font from the list of fonts. However, I still get the messages.
- Importing formats from a known good file.
- Editing the MIF, to the point of removing the entire paragraph, character, font, and table catalogs. (I started by deleting references to ITC Stone x, then went on to the more drastic measures.)
- Changing the default printer.
- Copying the text and pasting it into blank files based on known good files.
- I tried editing the maker.ini file to substitute fonts directly, but that didn't work. I may have been doing that wrong, though.
I've got over 10 years of FM experience, and I've never encountered a font problem that editing the MIF couldn't fix.
All of the documents came over from Frame 6. They're all in the same book.
We need to be able to work on the book file as an entity, without having to open the files that contain errors and leave them open.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Thank you very much!
~Robyn

I found the problem, but I'm not sure why it was a font problem to begin with:
Unresolved cross-references.
FM couldn't open all of the files in the book. Therefore, it couldn't update cross-references. It "thought" cross-references were unresolved.
I figured this out by deleting one page at a time from a Bad file. Then, I deleted one paragraph at a time from the Bad pages to determine that the cross-references were causing the problem.
I was cleaning up the book - deleting paragraph, character, cross-reference, table, and conditional text formats and master and reference pages. I then imported formats from a known Good file. The more files FM could open without errors, the fewer font errors I received. After I was able to generate/update the book, the font errors were gone.
Some of the font calls were on a reference page that was found only in select files. However, one would think that would show up in the MIF.
My best guess is that FM couldn't update the cross-reference formats without updating the cross-references, so it "thought" the text was still in the wrong font. That begs the question: Which came first, the unresolved cross-references or the missing fonts?
Of course, it doesn't explain why FM was complaining about a font that is installed.
Thank you everyone who took the time to answer. I'm sure this won't be the last time I run into this problem, and now I'll have a lot more knowledge for next time.

Missing Fonts in PDF

Hello everybody
I have a font problem somwhere in the chain Powerpoint->PDF->InDesign. When i Import the generated PDF, InDesign is reporting missing fonts in it. Now, there is a difference in which and where the fonts are missing (11 vs 31 errors) depending on which way i use to generate the PDF
a) via "publishing as PDF" from Powerpoint 2010
b) via "Print as" using the PDF printer
When checking the PDF's, i can see that corresponding fonts were embedded into the PDF (it might be that there is some confusion about naming of these fonts. For instance, PDF reports an embedded font "Arial" with "Actual name: ArialMT" while Indesign is simply missing "Arial", without any further information except that it has the status "not embedded").
Strangely, there also are missing fonts that i can find nowhere in the Powerpoint file (But several people worked on this presentation). I tried several versions and installations of Windows/Powerpoint/InDesign, without luck.
Workaround for now is export all slides as PNG. Any ideas what i can do to solve this problem?
Many thanks for assistance,
Andreas

Part of your problem is associated with PowerPoint 2010.
Microsoft's "save as PDF" leaves a bit to be desired at best.
Acrobat 9 (and obviously the earlier versions of Acrobat) do not support any of the Office 2010 components via the PDFMaker component.
If you print to the "Adobe PDF" PostScript printer driver instance from PowerPoint 2010 to create PDF, make sure you use joboptions that embed all fonts. The "out of the box" Standard joboptions do not do that. Try High Quality Print joboptions instead.
(The next full version of Acrobat will fully support PDFMaker with Office 2010! Even then, it will be critical to set joboptions that embed all fonts with no exceptions!)

Missing Fonts in Photoshop CS4

I opened an existing CS2 photoshop file in CS4 and I get a missing font error. The font that it can't find is on my system.
How do I "add" this font so PS can see it?
Thanks.

Yeah, I hear ya. But this seems to be a big complaint with 64 bit systems. And since all fonts show up and work fine in all other programs... seems like another adobe bug to me.
If you want to be a bit specific, Arial has 10 types. Only two show up. Regular and bold. And I'm not alone with this problem.
This was a bug (from what I read) in office 2007. But I never used 2007. However it wasn't a problem in office 2003 nor is it with my current version of 2010. As I said, no problems whatsoever with anything except... photoshop cs4 64. (works fine in 32 bit vista)
Now, FWIW, I haven't played much with font directories in the past, but it seems win7 is putting them into their own... kind of "folder". (could be wrong)
That is, in arials case, for instance, they aren't spread out. As... arial normal, black, bold, etc. They seem to be all lumped in to one. Click on it and they all open for display and are all there but I don't remember them that way in older windows progs.
But as I said, everything is fine in notepad, wordpad, excel, word, etc. etc. etc. A corrupt font is one thing, but I can't see a corrupt font working in everything but one program. And they DO work in dreamweaver.
Ok... update. As I said, tried putting them (the arials) in the adobe font directory (which I said was empty). Nothing. Tried again and it duplicated them. Still nothing. Went in and dumped the duplicates... seems to be working.
So, problem kinda solved. Just no clue why.
I need a drink and a few excedrins.

Missing Fonts from Imported PDFs

I have a document that has several PDF documents "Placed" in it. When I go to print, it tells me that I have missing fonts.
From Find Font, I can see the missing fonts and what PDF they came from. Only, Find Font won't let me substitute it.
I can't change the font on the PDF either since it was not made by my department.   I've tried Placing with and without a Frame. Tried embedded and linked.

I totally agree. I'd be a lot less stressed if that's how things were done here. We are a State University who's funding suddenly got cut. Work study students are cheap (though not as cheap as fixing up any messes they make). It's also cheaper to hire people who don't have complete training.   Every program I use, I've learned on my own. I'm at least smart enough to ask questions and read the manual. When training that my employers can afford (i.e., free) comes up, I attend. The only saving grace of Aspergers - I learn programs (and programming) quickly - maybe not as efficiently as you - but better than those around me. I at least knew about embedding fonts, linking graphics and packaging (my old days on Mac OS7 with PageMaker and Photoshop)
And at least I can read instructions.   "Place missing fonts in the Fonts Folder, which is located in the InDesign Application Folder." - Adobe Manual
I just looked. The folder is empty. And I gave them a print out of the instructions.
As for the Plug-in I asked to have installed "Missing Fonts Loader", they just dumped the plug-in into the Plug-in folder and didn't bother to read the "how to install" instructions. IT must have sent a work study student. Every time one touches my computer, something goes wrong or missing. Once they even installed the same program twice - 1 per partition.
Thank goodness the 'work around' did actually work. I'll will be working on fixing the problem the correct way, but I have to has this project ready now - not months from now.
