Missing fonts in FrameMaker 9 even after installing Adobe Type Manager

Hi,
We are using Formata family fonts in our templates. We import the templates and don't see the font family.
We then installed the Adobe Type Manager and tried reimporting the template. No results.
We then edited the makers.ini file and added the Formata font in DefaultFamily, still we see the font as missing in the Paragraph Desiger and Catalog.
Any help in this regard is appriciated.
The FrameMaker version is 9 on Windows XP.
Thanks,
Mrini

Hi Mrini,
I need not the ATM on Windows XP or higher to install a font.
1. Open the \Windows\Fonts folder
2. Drag and Drop the font file otf, ttf or pfm (for ps fonts).
3. Then the font is available for Windows and for the applications.
4. Test it with Word and FrameMaker to choose this new font.
Additional information for FrameMaker and the maker.ini:
FrameMaker can differ Weight, Angles, Variations, Windows Weight and Angles only.
Indeed you can define the correct Family Name with information to the Windows font name and information.
That isn't longer important if you use FrameMaker on Windows platform, but it can be a great challenge
if you also work with Adobe InDesign.
InDesign works default with the correct Font Family name with Weight, Angles, Variations.

I have Windows 7 and for some reason I cannot install Adobe Type Manager onto my Computer. I need ATM to install the DIN font but am having no luck what so ever. I can see the DIN font in my Dropbox but it is showing up like this:- ._DIN-bold, no file file extension. what am I doing wrong? is it Mac?

(1)    Adobe Type Manager (ATM) is not compatible with any version of Windows beyond Windows XP (32-bit, only). Attempting to install ATM on any newer version of Windows may actually disable Window's capability of rendering Type 1 and OpenType CFF fonts, requiring a reinstallation of Windows.
(2)    There is no need to use ATM to install any fonts under Windows.
(3)    The file name ._DIN-bold is indicative of a MacOS font. These fonts cannot be installed on Windows systems.

How Install Adobe Type Manager On 32 bit system

Installing Adobe Type Manager on 32 bit system gives error message saying need 16 bit system.

Thank you very very much. I bought these fonts from Adobe many years ago on a 3.5 inch disk which I still have. I assumed they were Adobe fonts. I have saved the disk contents on my network drive. I could use the Control Panel install from my network drive using my 6 year old desk top computer running Windows XP Professional Version 2002 Service Pack 3.
The Add Fonts from the control panel on my Lenovo SL510 running the same level Windows would allow me to point to the Font directory on the network drive but would not list the fonts. I had to move the the fonts into a newfont directory under C:\Windows. Then the Add Fonts would list the fonts and install them. I add all this because there have been over 130 views of this subject.
The question is Answered. Thank you.

Problem with another application after install Adobe Illustrator CC 2014

Hello, I write you because we don't know how to fix this problem.
We've encountered a problem after install that software in our corporative computers, for some reason the default font of Lotus Notes changes after install Adobe Illustrator.
It changes Calibri font by The Times New Roman font. Those problems have been detected in the 100% percent of tests made. (Uninstalling Adobe and/or Lotus, installing the software in many PCs and suffer the same issue).
There is a compatibility problem between those programs ?
Thank you in advance for your help.

d,
I am afraid Illy is reluctant to recognize Calibri as a (proper high quality) font and therefore replaces it whenever she comes across it.
Have you had the same issue with the original CC or even earlier?

Installing Adobe Type 1 Fonts on Solaris

We want to install ocra fonts on a workstation running Solaris 10. Currently the fonts are installed in a Solaris 8 server in:
/usr/openwin/lib/X11/fonts/Type1
On the workstation, we ftp'd the files from the server to /tmp on the workstation. We ran /usr/dt/bin/sdtfontadm and tried to use it to install the fonts. When you select install, 'Go To' /tmp and click 'Choose,'
we get a segmentation core dump. We have called this into Sun as a separate issue.
So we tried the manual way as described in IDAutomation.com (Installing Fonts on UNIX for Oracle Reports) and Oracle (Doc ID: 171464.1)
Both are pretty much the same. The following are the instructions:
1) copy ocra.pfa to /usr/openwin/lib/X11/fonts/Type1/outline
2) chown root:bin; chmod 644
3) Create a link of the file to /usr/openwin/lib/X11/fonts/Type1
4) Edit fonts.scale and add 1 to the number on top of the file.
5) add the following line:
ocra-pfa -adobe-ocra-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-p-0-iso8859-1
6) Run: /usr/openwin/bin/mkfontdir
7) Run: /usr/openwin/bin/xset fp rehash
8) Verify the font installation using /usr/dt/bin/sdtfontadm
When we run step 8, the font is there but the example tesxt is not OCR but courier.
We tried reformatting the workstation (due to the core dump) and setting it up to default to en_iso8859-1.
Can anyone help with this?
Thanks!
Frank

Windows Type 1 fonts each consist of two files, a .pfb file containing the font itself and a .pfm file containing extended font metrics used for formatting text on the host computer. If you don't have both files for a particular font, the font is uninstallable and unusable. To install a Type 1 font on a Windows system, the .pfb and .pfm for the font should be in the same directory. Right click on the font and click on Install or Install as shortcut. Install copies the two files to the \Windows\Fonts directory and subsequently uses the font from that location. Install as shortcut uses the font from the location the files are currently located in with the caveat that you must keep those files in that location or else the fonts will no longer be accessible.
If you actually attempted to install Adobe Type Manager on 32-bit Windows 7 (or later) system, you may have destroyed your system's ability to properly install and use Type 1 fonts at all. If this has happened, you may need to reinstall Windows! (If I recall correctly, the installer for ATM refuses to run at all on Windows 64-bit versions, sparing you the destruction of your Type 1 rendering!)

Adobe Type Manager problem with Windows 7 and DIN font file extension not showing

I have Windows 7 and for some reason I cannot install Adobe Type Manager onto my Computer.
I need ATM to install the DIN font but am having no luck what so ever.
I can see the DIN font in my Dropbox but it is showing up like this:- ._DIN-bold, no file file extension. what am I doing wrong? is it Mac?

Adobe Type Manager absolutely cannot be installed on Windows 7. In fact, even attempting to install it may corrupt your operating system installation and its ability to properly render Type 1 and OpenType CFF fonts. The last version of Windows for which ATM was at all compatible was Windows XP, 32-bit only!
Adobe Type Manager is not at all necessary to install fonts, even Type 1 fonts, on Windows 7 systems. Right click on the font file for TrueType of OpenType CFF fonts or the .PFM file for Type 1 fonts and select the Install option.
The font file you are trying to install is for MacOS. It cannot be installed on Windows.

Icon missing after installed Adobe

Hello,
Does anyone have the mac icons missing issue after installed adobe creative cloud installer?
My macbook pro icons were missing (didn't show) right after I installed Adobe Creative Cloud Installer (download from Adobe website).
At first, I thought the issue is my machine, so I went to apple store genius bar and left my mac for a week to let them find out the reason.
Apple erased my system and reinstalled it, and machine passed all the diagnose test.
Yesterday, I got my mac at apple retail store and everything was normal (no icon missing).
Right after I installed Adobe Creative Cloud Installer, the icons were missing. Then, I uninstalled Adobe Creative Cloud Installer, everything was back to normal, including icons were back.
I have no idea how this happen and why. But according to apple, they told me it should be the software issue and ask adobe for help. Adobe there is no phone call support form Adobe.
Does anyone have the same issue like this, or does anyone know how to solve the issue?

Hi Jeff,
Thank you for your reply. Please see the screenshot.
This is when I try to create a folder, it happens like this.
The second one is after I close this folder and reopen it. Please the second image.
The last image is very funny which I am not able to see anything form applications folder. But, actually, there are a lot of things. As you can see from Dock, there are many things like imessage, Photoshop, chrome etc. They just not shown!
I can only uninstaller the Adobe Creative Cloud Installer to solve it.
Do you have any idea how to solve it by any chance? Apple said it was caused by the software. They even replaced my logic board to solve it, but they still couldn't.

Macbook pro freezes for no reason even after installing 10.8 on a brand new hard drive

Macbook pro freezes for no reason even after installing 10.8 on a brand new hard drive.
Tried to reset pram, smc, nvram.
Tried installing new RAM.
Tried installing new hard drive.
You should know that my internal drive is installed in a cheap external case and plugged in a USB 2.0 port because i am waiting for a new hard drive cable.all
Yep all good things happened to me...i don't know if all these problems are linked, ahh and also my trackpad is behaving very erraticaly sometimes, it's like it is possessed by a ghost. My computer is not under warranty anymore so i'd like to avoid a trip to the Apple store but i'm close to doing just that.
Any help appreciated...

It's diagnostic software. It's supposed to help you find problems. I don't think anyone is making any software yet that fixes hardware problems.
That said, the two comments:

.....also my trackpad is behaving very erraticaly sometimes, it's like it is possessed by a ghost....
would lead me to think it's the logic board. On older MacBook Pro's both the USB I/O ports and the keyboard/trackpad are fed out of an integrated USB controller integrated into the South Bridge I/O controller. On newer models, the USB ports come out of an integrated North/South bridge controller and the keyboard/trackpad are handled by an SMC controller, which itself interfaces with the I/O controller. All of these items are on the logic board, and they're all unrepairable.
...unless of course the "internal drive [that] is installed in a cheap external case" is itself causing the problems. Another thing to try might be a different USB port, if you haven't done so already.
I didn't know the price for Scannerz went up. I could have sworn I only paid 30-some bucks for it. Maybe it was on sale at the time. I don't remember.
In any case, good luck.

Old X-Fi Platinum unrecognized even after installing drivers

Old X-Fi Platinum unrecognized even after installing drivers? I've got an old X-Fi Platinum card I bought more than 2 years ago (Model SB0460). When I first installed it a couple years ago (on Windows XP), it worked fine for a few months, then I started having issues about every 5th bootup where the card wasn't recognized. Simply restarting the computer would usually work. But after awhile, it finally quit being recognized. I thought maybe it was a problem with the drivers, which were old and buggy, so I took the card out and shelved it for a year and a half. I re-installed it today using the new drivers (2.8.0008), and everything installs fine until I reboot. Then I get the same old "Found new Hardware: Multimedia Audio Controller" popup every time, and the X-Fi drivers (that were there before the reboot) are nowhere to be found in the device manager list. ?
Is this a hardware problem or a software problem? This is a fairly new XP installation, and I spent weeks doing new installs and reformats a couple years ago when I had the original problem and that never helped, so I'm thinking it must be either the card is dead or a hardware conflict. FWIW, I'm using a Dell XPS 40 with the onboard audio disabled in the bios. Thanks.

I have the same problem! Running 32-bit XP SP2, Core 2 Duo with ASUS P5B Deluxe, with a MIDI keyboard plugged into the Li'veDri've of my X-Fi Platinum. Driver version 5.2.6.87 from 8/7/2006. Everything else on my computer works after I come back from standby, but not MIDI input. Most infuriating. The worst part is I know this will never be fixed...

For some apps it seems impossible to determine the price before, or even after, installing them. How can I get round this?

For some apps it seems impossible to determine the price before, or even after, installing them. How can I get round this?

Can you be clearer about what you're seeing? The price should be clearly stated up front... Is that not the case? Note that there may be additional taxes that will increase the final price, and that can't be included in that up-front listed price, since taxes are different everywhere.
