Missing fonts, why not to choose other relatives?

Hallo.
I have a pdf file and I want to modify it with adobe 8 professional but when I m going to delete some text the said that all or part of selection has no available system font.
When I m choosing other fonts and clivk on embed Im taking a message that says The change to a different fontwas not done because the chosen font and the font encoding in this document differ and could not be resolved
Any solution on that?

The post you refered to states that updated to 7.0.8 would solve the issue. But it
does not. Updated to 7.1 does not and even upgrading to 8.x still has not resolved the issue.
Any ideas?

Embedding Fonts - Why not?

We are really excited about the news of iBooks Author, since we are graphic designers who run a large font website. The bad news, iBooks doesn't support embedding fonts in the iBook format. Why not? (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5072) - The only work around seems to be if you publish in PDF format, but of course that limits things. Various foundries and font sites offer licenses for eBooks, so iBooks should support this, it's an important aspect to the book design and communication abilities..
Please fix this in the next update? Pretty please....?

> The bad news, iBooks doesn't support embedding fonts in the iBook format. Why not? ... The only work around seems to be if you publish in PDF format
In the ISO 8879 SGML family of which ePub and HTML are implementations the author inserts character information and content information considering the logical reading order. Appearance and geometry is not defined early binding by the author, but late binding by the audience. Because Apple controls the configuration of the obligatory CMAP Character Map in the SFNT Spline Font files available for rendering appearance, the author is guaranteed that the character information will map as intended in whatever appearance the audience chooses. This is *not* the case with glyph encoding and character substitution, whether in Adobe Type 1 font program dictionary format or in Adobe and Heidelberg SFNT Spline Font files which should have been sold with character encoding and glyph substitution, but which were in fact sold with glyph encoding and character substitution. Essentially, Apple is doing in the iBook Store what Microsoft did in Word 1992, that is, supporting obligatory CMAP shaping only for character-glyph mapping, and supporting system supplied SFNT Spline Font files for appearance approximation over third party selectable font files (whose character-glyph mapping may be completely off the wall).
There is the additional problem that adding logical reading order to PDF in order that it may reflow for PDA Personal Digital Assistants with different geometries is as complex, if not more so, than doing the same for a model for document markup that was designed for defining reading order. PostScript and PDF were designed for defining layout rendering order, not for defining logical reading order.
Hope this helps,

Missing font - Helvetica not included in the CS6 setup

Hi,
Cannot see that Helvetica is included in the CS6 setup I bought. Why is that so? It's a most common font.
Best regards
Cecilia

Helvetica does not and has never come with Photoshop.
Photoshop uses the operating system fonts. Windows does not have Helvetica, Mac OSX does. Therefore it will show up in the Mac version of Photoshop.
You have to purchase it separately and install it yourself in Windows or get a Mac.

Why Not Use WHEN OTHERS - Friday Question

There are several people on this forum that abhor use of WHEN OTHERS in the same vein as GOTO (which really is a bad practice). I have an open mind and am looking for the reason it should be avoided.
When used to output the state during unexpected exceptions, WHEN OTHES can dramatically reduce debug time. The only bad exception handler is WHEN OTHERS THEN NULL. Error logging to a table is important and should include the back trace and call stack in addition to listing pertinent parameter, constant and variable values. I consider this debug instrumentation. If you write perfect code or you don't have end users that are very creative in finding bugs that occur because of the convoluted way they get to the code that causes the error you don't need it. Or you like the thrill of the hunt going slogging through thousands of lines of code to try to figure out what caused the error. I am lazy and want to have it spelled out for me. Below is my error logging table (CODE is a session level transaction identifier used for filtering) and my error logging procedure is equivalent to DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE. This makes it easy to take other people's code and replace DBMS_OUTPUT with my error logging. This becomes very useful for debugging triggers since there is no standard output device.
CREATE TABLE SUPPORT.MESSAGE_LOGS
CODE        INTEGER                           NOT NULL,
TEXT        VARCHAR2(4000 BYTE)               NOT NULL,
CREATED_ON TIMESTAMP(6)                      NOT NULL,
CREATED_BY VARCHAR2(100 BYTE)                NOT NULL,
OSUSER      VARCHAR2(100 BYTE),
MACHINE     VARCHAR2(100 BYTE),
PROGRAM     VARCHAR2(100 BYTE),
BACK_TRACE CLOB,
CALL_STACK CLOB
Typical insert is:
INSERT INTO message_logs (
              code,
              text,
              created_on,
              created_by,
              osuser,
              machine,
              program,
              back_trace,
              call_stack )
VALUES      (
              utilities.get_xaction_sequence,
              pv_text,
              SYSTIMESTAMP,
              UPPER ( utilities.get_session_user ),
              UPPER ( utilities.get_osuser ),
              UPPER ( utilities.get_machine ),
              UPPER ( utilities.get_program ),
              DBMS_UTILITY.format_error_backtrace,
              DBMS_UTILITY.format_call_stack
Typical error text:
ERROR in UTILITIES.CREATE_FILE: ORA-29280: invalid directory path

C'mon Ed, now shirley you must have an opinion regarding the use of WHEN OTHERS?
Feel free to share it with us
My opinion is that I hate it when an application -- any application, under any framework, in any language -- swallows an error message. As to getting into the weeds of WHEN OTHERS, I tend to agree that it should be avoided but am open to arguments for exceptions. Does that sound like waffling? It's not intended to be. Here's where I have to make a confession. When I transitioned from the role of "developer" (we called them "programmer/analyst" then) to dba, my shop was also transitioning from IBM's IMS database (hierarchical) to relational databases - first DB2, then as client-sever architecture came in they settled on Oracle as the C/S database. Because I was viewed as an "early adopter" and had been doing some development work on our first client-server apps, I was tagged to become our first Oracle DBA. (My first oracle db was v7.3 on Win 3.11)   As a result of that path, I never really got heavily into development with PL/SQL. I can do OK on individual procedures - mostly for one-off or stand-alone use. But I never developed that mental framework and toolbox of procedures that only comes with working heavily in a language.
Don't call me Shirley

Missing fonts in PDF placed in InDesign

I was sent a PDF to make slight changes to it. Since the changes were so minor and relatively few, I thought it would be easiest to just place the pages of the PDF into an InDesign document and put white boxes over what needs to change.
I just noticed the Preflight panel says I'm missing Arial and Times New Roman which I know I have. I tried doing "Find Font" to replace the missing Arial with my Arial, but "Change" is grayed out so I'm thinking the fonts must not be properly embedded in the PDF.
I'm not sure if they have the original document the PDF came from (and if they do, it might be in Word). Is there a way I can fix this either in InDesign or with Acrobat?
Or, if I don't fix it, do you think that the missing fonts will not print properly?

You might be able to embed these fonts properly in the PDF. It isn't always successful, but in Preflight, open the fixups section and use the selection as in the screen shot. Then relink/replace the PDF in ID.

CS4 - Missing Fonts Loader Plug-in?

I apologize if this has already been asked, but I am having difficulty with the missing fonts loader plug-in.
Q: Can some please give me a detailed (step-by-step) instructions for installing this plug in for CS4?
Q: What is this Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable Package required for CS 4?
I need some assistance, please.
Thank you very much for any help!

I meant to add this as well.
Missing Fonts Loader Plug-in for Adobe InDesign CS4
The plug-in for Adobe InDesign CS4 is available on the Proxima Software Web site. This plug-in can automatically
activate missing fonts in Adobe InDesign documents.
Missing Fonts Loader Plug In
Product Adobe InDesign CS4 version 6.0
Description Automatic Activation of Missing Fonts
Operating System Microsoft Windows
Requirements Your missing fonts must be located in FontExpert
Groups (visible in the Groups view).
FontExpert 2009 version 10.0.
The plug-in may also work with FontExpert of earlier
versions 9 and 8, but FontExpert 2009 version 10.0 is
recommended.
File Name MissingFontsLoader.pln
How to Install the Plug-in
NOTE
The plug-in for InDesign CS4 requires Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable Package
(available on the Proxima Software Web site, http://www.proximasoftware.com/download.htm ).
Copy the MissingFontsLoader.pln file to the Adobe InDesign plug-ins folder:
c:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe InDesign CS4\Plug-Ins\MissingFontsLoader\MissingFontsLoader.pln
and RESTART Adobe InDesign.
(Where "c:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe InDesign CS4\" is the folder where Adobe InDesign is installed.)
Using the Missing Fonts Loader Plug-in
This plug-in has an activation option: automatic (recommended) or manual.
Automatic Activation
The Missing Fonts Loader Plug-in loads missing fonts automatically when you open an Adobe InDesign document.
The plug-in searches for fonts in font groups defined in FontExpert. If a missing font is not found in the FontExpert
Groups view, it will not be activated, and the font will be marked by InDesign as a missing font (for the current
document).
3
Missing Fonts Loader Plug-In for Adobe InDesign CS4
In the picture below, the Missing Fonts Loader window shows an empty list of missing fonts for the current
document, because all fonts were activated automatically:
4
Missing Fonts Loader Plug-In for Adobe InDesign CS4
When InDesign opens the document, it may still mark fonts as missing, even though they were actually activated
by the plug-in during the opening of the document. In this case, you may be required to reopen document to let
InDesign know that all missing fonts are now activated.
The font information xml file helps solve this problem. It is recommended to select the Use font information xml
files option. Every time you save the .indd document, the Missing Fonts Loader plug-in will create a small xml file.
This xml file will include the list of fonts used in the corresponding .indd document. When this xml file is present,
the plugin can activate fonts just before the InDesign actually opens the document and searches it for missing
fonts. (You will find the xml file near the Adobe InDesign .indd document on your computer.)
Manual Activation
When the Activate Missing Fonts Automatically checkbox is cleared, the plug-in
does not activate missing fonts when you open the document. You can open the plug-in
window and activate fonts manually.
The Missing Fonts Loader window shows the list of missing fonts in current document:
5
Missing Fonts Loader Plug-In for Adobe InDesign CS4
Click the Activate All button to activate missing fonts.
Important Note
Unfortunately, when missing fonts are activated manually, you are usually required to close the InDesign
document and open it again to let the document "know" that new fonts became available. This is the
disadvantage of manual activation.

Outline missing fonts in an INDESIGN

Is there any way to outline the missing fonts in an InDesign client file so it doesn't mess up the layout?
I have tried to replace some of the missing fonts but not the same version so the text layout is affected.
Any suggestions?

And to add a postscript (not a PostScript) to this discussion, even if you had the fonts to provide the outlines, outlining text is really a bad idea for any number of reasons including (1) inability to subsequently edit the text in InDesign, (2) much lower print and display quality due to lack of font hinting (geometric scaling with outlines as opposed to intelligent scaling with fonts), and (3) inability to search and/or do text touch-up in Acrobat.
Ironically, some really misguided print service providers act like Luddites, requiring customers to outline all text. Adobe strongly recommends against this practice!!!

Why is my mac missing certain fonts and not displaying some pictures, is just a little blue box with a question mark in it?

When I open documents it always comes up with warnings that I am missing fonts and some cannot be replaced.
Also now I am noticing that some pictures are now missing and are replaced by a small blue box with a question mark in the middle. Can anyone
tell me what is going on and how I can fix this?
Confused and frustrated,
Amanda

Do you get a dialog box if you control click the missing image.

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?

Why are my fonts are not installing in ox6 it shows as exec?

Why are my fonts are not installing in ox6 it shows as exec?

Are you referring to an icon that looks like a monitor and has the word exec in green on it? If so, that's OS X's way of saying "I have no idea what this file is".
I'm guessing you're trying to use an incompete Type 1 PostScript font. Type 1 PostScript fonts are a set. One file is a suitcase containing all of the low res bitmap screen fonts. The rest are the outline printer fonts. As an example, here's Adobe Garamond.
Adobe Garamond
AGarBol
AGarBolIta
AGarIta
AGarReg
AGarSem
AGarSemIta
The first file which I highlighted in green is the font suitcase of bitmap screen fonts. The rest are the outline printer fonts.
1) The files for a Type 1 PostScript font must have both the screen and printer fonts for a given set in order to work. They also must be in the same folder.
2) The suitcase of bitmap fonts will work alone, but output will be terrible since the system will print the fonts using the 72 dpi screen fonts in the suitcase if the outline portions are missing.
3) Having only the outline fonts will not work. You can see the fonts, but they will not load. That's not a problem with Font Book, Suitcase or other font manager. None of them, nor the system itself will load outline fonts from a Type 1 PostScript font without the matching suitcase of screen fonts present.

Missing Fonts That Are Not Missing

Why does FrameMaker 11 claim that it cannot open a file due to missing fonts when in fact no fonts are missing? I have repaired this problem with numerous files, replacing the missing fonts, but Frame is proving recalcitrant with one file in particular.

For one thing, Calibri does not come in a Heavy font version, the only available heavier weight is a Bold (see: https://www.microsoft.com/typography/fonts/family.aspx?FID=287).
To find the offending Calibri Heavy use the Find > Character Format..., then set everything to AsIs (Shift-F8) in the Format panel. Then select only Heavy for the Weight (it's important that you don't have a Font Family named, as FM will restrict your choices for the Weight to only what is available for the installed font). This should find all instances of Calibri Heavy with whatever it is substituted with.
To make the substitutions permanent (if you can't get your substitutions to work through the Fonts pod), turn off the "Remember Missing Font Names" preference setting and then save all of your files. You can then reset this Preference back. It is best to close the FM session when changing the Preference to ensure this setting is properly enabled when opening the files for the permanent substitutions.
Opening all of the files in a book (all in one go using the Shift-key shortcut) first is only a workaround to ensure that all problems, such as the missing fonts, are addressed and FM then doesn't have to ask about what it should do about the errors in the files. Fixing the problems mitigates this step.
The SetPrint utility automatically sets the AdobePDF as the default printer instance for the FM session only and then resets it back to whatever you have as your system default printer when you close FM. This helps prevent things such as printer fonts from accidentally being used and has the correct device for creating PDFs already enabled. It's quite useful for us lazy types...

Why does emoticons sent from my iphone 4s does not show on other phones

why does emoticon sent from my phone does not show on other phones

iOS emoticons are Unicode characters that need a certain set of glyphs to be able to be displayed—think of it as a missing font not displaying correctly. If the device you send them to doesn't have the "font", it can't show it.
That's just the way it is.

In Pages 5.2, some fonts "not available", yet present in Font Book and working in other apps

Using Pages 5.2, I open a document created in a previous version, and I get error messages about certain fonts within a font family being "not available" in OS X. However, these supposedly unavailable fonts are present in Font Book and work just fine in all other apps running on OS X. In fact, I still have the older version of Pages on my system, and it still finds the fonts without issue. The specific fonts troubling me at the moment are Myriad Pro Semibold It and Myriad Pro Cond. Pages 5.2 replaces them with Helvetica. I have wasted hours of time trying to resolve this problem, and I am at a total loss. What can I do?

Like so many other thing is is probably gone. Why not use Pages 09 that has about 100 features more than Pages 5. If you haven't deleted it it should still be in Applications/iWork 09 folder.

Missing fonts, why not to choose other relatives?
