Missing Fonts and Embedding Fonts

I've run into some strange behavior using Flash Catalyst, and I can't seem to find a solution.
I've created a project that uses a custom font. The font displays just fine in the design window, however whenever I open the project it says the font is "missing". Yet the font still shows up in the font list and is properly installed in my font directory on OSX.
Additionally, when I deploy the project to the web I select "embed fonts". When I load up the website, the font initially appears correctly, however hovering over or clicking on the text buttons changes the font to a default font in a very strange and unpredictable way. Here's the website for reference: http://www.neighbors-film.com
I believe this is related to FC being unable to find the font file, however I'm not sure how to tell it where the file is located.
Any suggestions?

Hey Mykill G,
To use preflight tool, you might need to go to Tools > Print Production > Preflight > PDF fixups > Embed fonts >Edit
Then, Edit Profile window will appear. In this, select Fonts under Embed fonts category and click 'unlock' from the right hand side.
You can now click on 'Add' button to add the desired fonts.
Also, You might check font permissions for Acrobat at the following link:
Additional License Rights, font permission list | Adobe
Please let me know whether your query is resolved.

AFEFontManager,TextLayoutFramework and embedded fonts

Should we not use AFEFontManager in conjunction with TextLayoutFramework and embedded fonts. I have a project that was using the compiler argument -managers=flash.fonts.AFEFontManager. I would embed fonts from a loaded swf, but the fonts would be of type "embedded" instead of "embeddedCFF". Since the type wasn't embeddedCFF, the font wouldn't display correctly.
I removed the -managers=flash.fonts.AFEFontManager argument and it works perfectly.
So, is there a different way to reference the AFEFontManager? Or perhaps it's not necessary to do so at all?
thanks.

I think this question needs to go to the flex forum, since it is more about AFEFontManager. "embedded" fonts work with TextField, "embeddedCFF" fonts work with TLF and flash.text.engine. It's possible there is a way for you do this with embeddedCFF, that is a question for the Flex group, they are the best source fr information about the compiler.
Thanks,

After removing system fonts and reinstalling fonts, FireFox will not start

After removing system fonts and reinstalling fonts, FireFox will not start! When I start FireFox the "Mozilla Crash Reporter" opens as if FF just crashed??? I don't see any records in event viewer. I am using FF v3.6.3 on a Windows 7 box. I tried uninstalling 3.6.3 and installing 3.0.18 and had the same problem!
== This happened ==

The files with submitted crash report ids are inside the ''submitted '' directory, from the directory you found the LastCrash.txt timestamp file.
The file names will begin with '''bp-'''
There might be more information from the crash report, but it might just tell us you are crashing the first time Firefox tries to use a font.
One thing I suppose you could do is select only those fonts you've got in Tools -> Options -> Content -> Fonts and Colors -> Advanced and then uncheck the '''Allow pages to use their own fonts''' option.
See http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Options+window+-+Content+panel#Fonts_Dialog
To be honest, I can't find anything on this Netscape Font Navigator and it sounds highly dubious.

The change to a different font was not done because the chosen font and the font encodings in the do

Hi,
I created a PDF from a Word document that used Cambria font, and when I select it in Acrobat to try to change the font I get "The change to a different font was not done because the chosen font and the font encodings in the document differ and could not be resolved"
How can I change the font and why is it preventing me from doing so?
Thanks,
Juan

Juan,
No, Acrobat is not a word processor.
More to the point Acrobat lets one "work" PDF and PDF is not a file format designed as a word processing, editing, formating, or page layout file format.
PDF is, essentially, a "final destination" format.
What it is is described in the ISO Standard for PDF (ISO 32000-1).
Be well...

Can I sync PC fonts and Mac fonts using Creative Cloud?

Can I sync PC fonts and Mac fonts using Creative Cloud?

Well, you should have a dedicated sync MIDI cable. Assign Logic to transmit MTC. Tell Cubase to chase it.
Song settings>Synchronization>MIDI
that is where you can tell Logic to transmit MTC. When routing back to Logic you shuld not expect significant latency and there are ways to offset it. The easiest would probably tell Cubase to run a little ahead of the clock. (Offset)
So there is the Logic settings panel Cubase has one similar, for chasing. If you use a dedicated audio interface and transfer audio digitally from PC to Mac then you would want to have then synced via word clock. I would put Logic as the master here again.
You're Welcome,

Problem with PDF export and embedded font (characters disappear)

Designer: Crystal Reports 2008 SP 2
Engine: CR4E 2.0 SP2 (runtime_12.2.203)
Hi there!
we found a problem in the pdf export. It seems like there would be a problem with the embedded fonts, the problem is as follows:
Rpt file with, for example only a text box which contains the german string " Änderungs Schlüssel ".
Export the Rpt file with CR4E to a pdf file.
When we open the pdf file in Adope Reader 8, the text appears to be correct,
but if we print the PDF file from the Adope Reader, the text changes to " nderungs Schl sselu201C,
here we are missing ther german umlaute.
When we open the file for example with an alternative PDF reader like Foxit Reader, there they are also missing.
After i found some posts here in the forum, there are people facing the same problem, since i couldn't find a solution in the forum, we build a little workaround for it that works for us.
For all of you that have the same problem here the workaround:
We used the IText JAVA library, this jar can can help as to fix the PDF file so the text is displayed correctly.
Here the code:
ReportClientDocument doc = new ReportClientDocument();
doc.setReportAppServer(ReportClientDocument.inprocConnectionString);
doc.open("C:\XY.rpt", OpenReportOptions._openAsReadOnly);
//... database logon,.....
InputStream inputStream = doc.getPrintOutputController().export(ReportExportFormat.PDF);
inputStream = PDFHealer.heal(inputStream);
//... write the stream some where

The helper class using IText:
import java.io.ByteArrayInputStream;
import java.io.ByteArrayOutputStream;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.InputStream;
import com.lowagie.text.Document;
import com.lowagie.text.DocumentException;
import com.lowagie.text.pdf.PdfContentByte;
import com.lowagie.text.pdf.PdfImportedPage;
import com.lowagie.text.pdf.PdfReader;
import com.lowagie.text.pdf.PdfWriter;
public class PDFHealer
   public static InputStream heal(InputStream in) throws DocumentException, IOException
      try
         ByteArrayOutputStream out = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
         PdfReader reader = new PdfReader(in);
         // we retrieve the total number of pages
         int n = reader.getNumberOfPages();
         // step 1: creation of a document-object
         Document document = new Document();
         // step 2: we create a writer that listens to the document
         PdfWriter writer = PdfWriter.getInstance(document, out);
         // step 3: we open the document
         document.open();
         // step 4: we add content
         PdfContentByte cb = writer.getDirectContent();
         int i = 0;
         while( i < n )
            document.newPage();
            i++;
            PdfImportedPage page1 = writer.getImportedPage(reader, i);
            cb.addTemplate(page1, 0, 0);
         // step 5: we close the document
         document.close();
         ByteArrayInputStream ret = new ByteArrayInputStream(out.toByteArray());
         out.close();
         return ret;
      finally
         in.close();

Has the issue with font licences and embedding fonts in a dynamic PDF been solved?

Hi all,
Can I check if this issue has been fixed in LiveCycle yet please?
http://forums.adobe.com/message/3724557
Issue is that although LC lets you specify what typeface should be used for the caption/value in a form, it cannot discern the corresponding licencing requirements.
So in the case where even though a particular font isn’t used for any editable information – being set as the caption only – LC requires a font permitting embedding for editing, otherwise the font is not embedded at all and therefore is substituted for another typeface on a system where the font isn’t available.
Seems LC needs it's embedding requirements to catch up with the usage of type in a dynamic PDF, as in cases where the fonts bundled with Reader or system fonts aren't suitable, such as when a visual standard needs to be met, the user may not be overly keen on paying a significant financial penalty for editable font licences.
Thanks
James

Hi James,
I don't think that it the case at all. If the font has a license for enbedding then that is what happens:
I accept that some fonts come with expensive "embedding for editing" licenses, but Adobe's implementation is in line with the font industry's expectations.
I don't think this is a "bug" that will be fixed.

Problem with v9.4.4 and embedded fonts

I have been using Acrobat for several years and have created and saved hundreds of PDF documents. Since upgrading to v9.4.4, all those are now unreadable. When I open any pdf saved to a previous version or new document saved to a PDF, I get the following error message:
"Cannot extract the embedded font 'TDVVWC+MyriadPro-BoldCond'. Some characters may not display or print correctly."
I don't know if this is a problem with Acrobat Pro or with Reader, but it has rendered every pdf file I ever created useless. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I use a MacBook Pro
Mac OS X 10 v 10.6.7
Acrobat 9 Pro v9.4.4
Thanks,
Jim

Larry and Phillip,
Thanks for your help. I'm sure you both are right that it is a problem with OSX. Unfortunately, the font fix didn't work. What is odd is that the original documents open fine in Pages, and even the PDF's look and print fine if opened in Preview. It's only when the PDF's are opened in Acrobat that the fonts get messed up.
The other thing that is strange is I emailed a PDF to a friend who opened the file in Windows. He got a similar error message (problem with embedded fonts...) but the fonts were not distorted and the PDF appeared fine.
That's because the defective font was embedded in you document; but, his machine likely has no issue with the font or is setup to use local fonts only.

Gumbo text elements and embedded fonts

Hi again,
ok I found the solution. The first time, I searched in the "CSS Advanced Selectors" spec document for the solution and I found nothing about it. Then I had the "great" idea to look in the only right place which is of course "Text Primitives (TextBox, TextGraphic, and TextView)". There I found the hint about "DefineFont4" which, with some search, led me to the solution:
1. Add the new property "cff: true" in the "@font-face" css block
2. Set the property fontLookup="embeddedCFF" for the text element
et voilÃ !
I hope this will save somebody else some time!

OK,
I have given up messing with stylesheets, trying display:
block, inline, different ways of formatting the XML, messing with
XML.ignoreWhiteSpace, and XML.prettyPrinting etc.
I went down the route of encodeURI, using a RegExp to strip
out all tabs, linefeeds and carriage returns. This now gives
consistent results for all situations, even embedded and none
embedded fonts.
e.g.
_text:String = TEXT FROM XML, HTML TEXT etc
var st:String = encodeURI(_text);
var pattern:RegExp = /(%09)+|(%0A)+|(%0D)+/g;
st = st.replace(pattern, "");
st = decodeURI(st);
YOUTEXTFIELD.htmlText = st;
The <p> tags still behave as a <br/> tag, but you
can add an extra <br/> to simulate a paragraph.
Here is the example again with the updates,
Hope this helps someone

Resource Bundles and Embedded fonts - best practice

Hello,
I am in digging into creating a localized app and I would
like to use embedded fonts.
Ideally, I would like to have two locales (for example), each
with a different embedded font and/or unicode range.
For example, how do I set up my localized app so that EN uses
Arial (Latin Range), and JP uses Arial Unicode MS with Japanese
Kanji unicode range ?
Note that I do know how to embed fonts with different ranges,
I just don't know how to properly embed them into resource bundles
and access them easily in style sheets.
Thanks!
-Daniel

Hello!
This is a very pertinent question, however as many things in life there is no one size fits all here.
We basically recommend, as best practice, to allocate for each specific context only the estimated needed resources. These values should always come from a previous study on the network patterns/load.
To accomodate for growth and scalability it is strongly advised to initially keep as many resources reserved as possible and allocate the unused resources as needed. To accomplish this goal, you should created a reserved resource class, as you did already, with a guarantee of 20 to 40 percent of all ACE resources and configure a virtual context solely with the purpose of ensuring that these resources are reserved.
As you might already know ACE protects resources in use, this means that when decreasing a context's resources, the resources must be unused before then can be reused by other context. Although it is possible to decrease the resource allocations in real time, it typically requires additional overhead to clear any used resources before reducing them.
Based on the traffic patterns, number of connections, throughput, concurrent SSL connections , etc, for each of the sites you will be deploying you will have a better idea on what might be the estimated needed resources and then assign them to each of the contexts. Thus this is something that greatly depends on customer's network environment.
Hope this helps to clarify your doubts.

Link and embedded fonts

Hi,
I'm using this to set the general format of my text flow:
<TextFlow xmlns='http://ns.adobe.com/textLayout/2008' fontSize='16' textIndent='0' paragraphSpaceAfter='0' paddingTop='5' paddingLeft='0' paddingRight='0' lineHeight='100%' fontFamily='RockwellCFF'>
<TextLayoutFormat color='#ff0000' id='hoverOverBrand' />
<TextLayoutFormat color='#00ff00' id='mouseDownOverBrand' textDecoration='underline' />
<TextLayoutFormat color='#0000ff' id='defaultLinkBrand'/>
<TextLayoutFormat color='#0000ff' id='hoverOverEmail'/>
<TextLayoutFormat color='#0000ff' id='mouseDownOverEmail' lineThrough='true' />
I'm also loading some embedded fonts, that's working ok.
When I apply a link to the current selection, I use this code:
IEditManager( textFlow.interactionManager ).applyLink( url, linkTarget, false);
The problem I have is that when the link is applied, the selection looses it's font family value and there is no way to re-format it again.
is it possible to declare a CFF setting in the "defaultLinkBrand" so all links keep the original font family?
any ideas will be appreciated.

Seems to work for me. Attached is a complete example that I can build and run. The dump methods show what fonts are actually used. I don't have RockwellCFF so I used a different font. If you could modify this example until its broken and pass it back we'd be in a much better position to figure out where the issue is.
http://drop.io/oscar7878/asset/oscar7878-as
(not sure how to attach a file here - let me know if this doesn't work)
This is the output I get (I removed the clusters dump as that's not interesting). It shows that the embedded font was used - it appears to be visually the case as well.

Dynamic text and embedded font

Hi,
I'm new to Flash and AS3, and I'm having a problem when I do
the following: I create an empty dynamic text field in the
authoring environment, click "Embed...", and choose the character
sets that I want (I get the same results when I embed the entire
font). The first time I change the contents of the text field with
the command:
text_field.text = "string 1";
I get good results--the text appears in the correct font.
However, subsequent attempts to update the .text property fail with
no error message, and the field becomes blank.
If I remove the embedded font by clicking "Don't embed" in
the embedding dialog, then every time I update the field's .text
property, it displays correctly using a local machine font.
I've also tried embedding the font in the swf by creating a
dynamic text field in the authoring environment, into which I place
no text, creating a second, functional text field in actionscript,
formatting it, using the "embed = true" property, and repeatedly
updating the .text property with the same bad results as described
above.
I haven't tried using the [embed] metatag to dynamically load
the font.
I've tested the swf in IE7 and Firefox on two machines with
the same results. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks,
Dave

Okay, here's more information. The font that I've been trying
to embed is Bitstream Vera Sans Mono. If I embed a different font,
like Bitstream Vera Sans, I have no problem. It seems to me that it
must be that my Bitstream Vera Sans Mono is corrupted, my .fla and
.swf files are corrupted, or there's a bug in flash...

Trouble in loading external swf file and embedded font dynamically

I have developed a flex application doing something like this: it loads A.swf from somewhere and show it on the stage
sometimes A uses fonts not installed on users' machine, so at this time my app will load B.swf with needed fonts embedded in it from another place
I have working it out that fonts in B.swf can be detected and shown in my app stage, but when I use SWFLoader to show A.swf, it still fails in showing the fonts properly...
Some of my codes pasted here:
// load fonts

Anyone has idea about this? 3x~

Hm, yes, I remember there being some challenges in this regards, with Modules loading fonts at runtime.
If you take a look at the section "Using run-time style sheets with modules," they describe the basic approach where everything has to be loaded and registered in the primary application domain.
I think it should work fine the way you have it, provided you are registering both the font and the loaded SWF in the primary application domain. If not, you may need to push the font registration down into the application domain being used by the loaded SWF.
Something like this perhaps:
childApplicatonDomain.getDefinition('flash.text.Font').registerFont(fontClass);
Where childApplicatonDomain is the application domain of the loaded SWF.

Kindle and embedded fonts

I have studied things in this forum and elsewhere about the net regarding embedding fonts for Kindle mobi files with InDesign CS6, but nothing seems to work.
Our Institute is prepared to pay for concrete help in this regard. If anyone is interested, I would send you the fonts and a few pages for trial. Kindly write to me at [email protected] and let me know what you would charge for a successful resolution to the problem.

Font embedding is a very confusing issue because it depends on the capabilities of the EPUB reader. I really haven't had the time to learn all the fine points.
I know that it now works correctly in InDesign CC if you're targeting iBooks, but I'm not sure it's guaranteed to work on other readers. With InDesign CS6, I believe you're using the correct workaround.

Firefox missing fixedsys and terminal fonts?

I know I have the fixedsys and terminal font installed in the windows font folder, however, they don't show up when selecting for a font in the Tools>Options>Content>fonts & colors. The drop down list of fonts don't show it at all.
I have chrome and they show in there.
Apparently firefox doesn't seem to see that the fonts exist at all, since attempting to display a webpage with these fonts makes it default to times new roman.
I want these fonts back, how do I get them?

There should be plenty of monospace fonts available that you can use instead of bitmap fonts.
Bitmap font can't be enlarged like vector font and will show blocky.
