Xorg Fails to Start: Could Not Open Default Font 'Fixed'

After an absence from my Arch system, I tried to fire it up today and found that Xorg7 now fails to load, telling me that it "could not open default font 'fixed'". I have done a "find" on my whole partition - there is no font file called "fixed*" at all on the system. Just for fun, since I have an older SuSE 9.3 on another partition on the same machine, I searched it too - no files called "fixed*" at all.
Does anyone recognize this error, and know what to do about it?
I haven't touched this partition in probably 6 months (long story). I do have a triple boot on this machine, with the SuSE I mentioned above and also Ubuntu Dapper Drake. I have been running the odd update on those two OS's - I suppose they might have crept onto my Arch partition and messed things up...
Anyway, any and all thoughts much appreciated. I am pretty much dead in the water with Arch. I am running Arch 0.7.2, on a 3.0 GHz Pentium IV HT with 1 GB of RAM.

Hi Guys, thanks for the help. I haven't been able to get back to this for a bit but I finally did tonight. sh___, your tip did the trick. I did the grep and sure enough, fixed WAS on the system, it just clearly was not in the font path. I started backtracking and found that it had been commented out of the font path in xorg.conf. As soon as I uncommented it, X11 was back. Phew!
HOWEVER, XFCE4 is totally borked. It appears that one of my Ubuntu updates wandered onto my Arch partition and kindly updated parts of XFCE4, leaving the whole completely unworkable. Happily, I also have KDE installed on Arch, and was at least able to get an X environment back from which to work on the XFCE4 problem. I am now updating XFCE4 completely to the current version - that should restore version harmony and hopefully all will be well. We shall see! Thanks again.

Din font won't display in pdf file since December update to version 11.0.10

I upgraded my Acrobat to version 11.0.10 just before the Christmas break. Din font is my corporate typeface and I used it yesterday to create an invoice in Mac Pages only to discover that I cannot view the pdf as the font won't display in Acrobat. And to add to the problem my clients who are using the same version of Acrobat are unable to view the font either on the pdf. It all worked fine before the upgrade.
What can be done to rectify the problem? I need to fix this asap.
This error message appears when I try and open the file "Cannot extract the embedded font 'DQPJNL+DIN-Medium'. S"
The DQPJNL bit changes depending on the file being opened but essential Din font won't display.

Hi,
Please check if DIN font is embedded in your PDF by going to File > Properties > Fonts
If no, then you might need to go to 'Tools > Print Production > Preflight'
Then, open the PDF fixups section, click on Embed fonts fixup and choose 'Analyze and fix button'.
Please check and let me know if you are able to view the font now.
Regards,
Anubha

Xnewt dies: could not open default font 'fixed'

Hi,
trying to get srss4.2 on SXCE b129 running. However, Xnewt has a problem:

Maybe some of the [information from Chris Gerhard|http://chrisgerhard.wordpress.com/2010/01/11/more-sun-ray-on-opensolaris-build-130/] about getting Sun Ray Software to work on OpenSolaris build 130 can help you.
Note that Chris's blog is about OpenSolaris, not SXCE. SXCE 129 may have additional problems. I found the following information from someone working on X in Solaris:
Though I should probably also warn that if you installed snv_129 from SVR4
packages, many of the links in /etc/X11/fontpath.d will be broken - these
are okay in the IPS packages, and are fixed in the snv_130 X packages.
HOWEVER you probably only want to replace SUNWfont-xxx and SUNWttf-xxx
packages with the versions from snv_130, as I wouldn't be surprised if
Xnewt gets further broken by the snv_130 integrations of Xorg 1.7/X11R7.5
and the move from /usr/X11 to /usr of the programs & libraries.As the SXCE program has ended, you should consider moving to OpenSolaris. The Chris Gerhard blog also has information about getting SRSS to work on recent OpenSolaris builds (b132+).
Of course you'll always have to expect such breakages with new builds, as OpenSolaris is a rapidly evolving platform.

Fonts won't display in CS3-- particularly Photoshop & Illustrator

Hello Everyone,
Thank you for any help you may be able to provide for this question. Recently my laptop with my installed softwares crashed. Luckily I was able to recover most everything and restored it on my newer iMac.
One of the few software that didn't play nice was CS3, so I had to re-install it. Now, many of the fonts won't show up. I'm doing a logo for a client and I need some fonts but fonts from the following- New Peninim, Corsiva Hebrew, Ariel Hebrew and/or Raanana-- don't appear after you engage the Type tool. What shows up in both Photoshop and especially Illustrator is a square box with nothing in it.
I've gone to MANY of the help columns on line and followed 4 or 5 different "solutions"-- nothing seems to work. I even, against my suspicions, called the Adobe customer service and the best they could offer was to post a question here if my answer was not apparent.
So, does anyone have an opinion on the matter? Bearing in mind that I've put fonts in the Adobe folder, reset characters and a few other things since yesterday.
Any help would be greatly appreciated,
Thanks,
Andre

If you have the fonts installed and activated and they are not functioning, you may need to clear your font caches.
Are you using any font management software? Can you confirm that the fonts are active? If you're not aware of any font management, open up Font Book (applications -> Font Book) and see if you see the fonts in there. If they are in the list, are they active? If they are not in the list, you need to add them there (I think just by dragging them from the finder) and activate them. Not being a Font Book user I'm not sure, but you may need to restart Illustrator to see the newly activated fonts.
If you don't have the fonts active, your type will be displayed in the default font (Myriad, unless you changed it) which likely doesn't have the hebrew characters, thus all you see is the squares indicating missing characters.

Sent mail has not the default font

Hi,
Users complain that Groupwise changes the font when they use the "sent to" option in Microsoft Word. Has this behaviour changed since Groupwise 8? How can I set the font so that it is the same in every situation?
We use Groupwise 2012, version 12.0.1.16521.
Many thanks in advance.

Hi Joost,
I've done some checking with Novell and it would appear that this is a bug in the GroupWise 2012 client - Bug 796126 - Default font changes, using mail to from Excel and Word
The bug describes exactly the symptom that you are seeing, and, was not present in the V8 of the client. Unfortunately I do not know when the targeted date for a fix will be
Cheers,

Body text appearing as TNR, not the default font

I'm having a problem with the font settings with mail sent from Mail.
I've set the default font to Arial, but all emails sent to other people (using Outlook under WinXP) see it as Times New Roman. I've even specifically selected Arial from the Font Pallete and it still comes up as TNR. If I select another font, like say Verdana, they see that fine. It's only Arial that screws up.
I also have Arial in my signature, but that comes up fine - even at the same time as the body text is screwing up

Try setting the default in Mail preferences to something else other than Arial, then change the font to Arial in the message via the Font Palette.

Font won't display -- strange behaviour

Hi all,
I have a keynote presentation that I prepared last year, and it worked fine. I went to open it today, and the font does not render properly -- all the letters are compacted together and not legible. If I change the font size, I can read it again (going from size 36 to 18), but if I enlarge the text again, the same thing happens.
I emailed the keynote file to another mac in the house, and it opens just fine on that one. I tried restarting, and same thing. Since I need this presentation for tomorrow, I just went through and changed the font to a different one, and that works just fine.
When I open a different keynote file, that one displays correctly.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Boris

I see the same problem. Arial and New Times Roman are affected. The rest work fine. They behave as though the widths are fixed. Resizing the same fonts in Mail work fine, but found the same problem in Pages. Font Book validated these fonts. Also, in the Inspector, Text Spacing has no effect. I don't have an answer yet but I have a question. Did your other Mac on which it worked properly, have an earlier version of either iWork or OS X and are you having trouble with Arial and New Times Roman also or a different font?

Font won't display or print following upgrade to Reader 9

Since "upgrading" the other day to Reader 9, Monotype Corsiva will no longer display or print on my .pdf documents. I had no problems with the font displaying or printing prior to then. I tried copying the font and pasting it in the Fonts folder, but that didn't help. Anyone have any suggestions as to how I can fix this?

I'm having exactly the same kind of problem. I downloaded
Adobe Reader 9 and i havent used Monotype Corsiva before,
but for my projekt it is simply vital ;/
Looking forward for any help solving the problem
regards

Font won't display once installed in MS Apps

I activated Baghdad and Al Bayan fonts in the Font Book for both my account and the computer. However, the font's don't show up in Office Applications like Word and Excel, how do I activate them in these apps?

Are they in ~(yourHome)/Library/Fonts? If not put them there. Then relaunch your MS apps.

Could not use imported fonts, won't publish my site... total disaster

This version *****... first could not use previously installed fonts then I lost the entire published version. now can't bring up my blog... I published to .mac and only shelleypiser.com comes up but cannot get writeonyoga.com
I want my old version back this one needs to be thrown out and start again. does anyone know why the imported fonts cannot be used to other computers? it came up with big ugly letters. none of the geniuses or procare brains knew what to do....

Embedding a font does not make it available in Illustrator or any other program. (Exception, Acrobat is able, and must, use the font to correctly draw the page.)
If there are missing fonts when opening a pdf in Illustrator, the fonts are not installed on the machine.
As Bob said, "Illustrator is not a pdf editor!". It can, and is abused for such, all to often, with caveats.

Arial Black Font won't display

My website uses Arial Black on all of its menus. Firefox 4.0 converts this to Arial. It works fine with earlier versions of Firefox, IE and Chrome.

Not even a workaround to be honest - makes arial black extra bold (horrible looking) on all other browsers. Need to pinpoint FF4+ through jscript or php and apply css for FF only. Why they have done this is beyond me. Pain in the ass

Occasionally Firefox 3.6.12 won't display photos on certain sites. Reloading works sometime but not alwasys.

At times on auction some sites such as ebay, (and others), photos won't display. If I press the reload button there's a chance the photo will display. If reload doesn't work the first time, pressing it 3 or 4 times may work but not always. Closing the site then re-opening works sometimes but not always. Annoying.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
* Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

Terminal.app won't display OpenType fonts (.otf)

Where the characters should be, blanks are displayed. This is a serious problem for me because, while I use Monaco in my terminal, the fallback font for Japanese characters is Hiragino, which is an OpenType font: as a result, Japanese text is not visible in my terminal.
Here is a screenshot: http://i.imgur.com/wlNPV.png
Note that, since I set the system's language to Japanese, most of the text in Terminal's preferences is also invisible.
The problem only seems to occur in Terminal.app, and does not affect other users on the same machine (I tried logging in as guest). It occurs with all OpenType fonts I tried, not just Japanese ones.
Strangely, if I delete Terminal's preferences, the problem almost disappears (except that it still says ル in the window's title bar instead of ターミナル); however, if I close and relaunch Terminal, the problem immediately reoccurs, even though the preferences file is pristine.
I tried resetting the ATS cache (atsutil databases -remove) and restarting in safe mode, but the problem still occurs. I've tried googling around, and I found some other people mentioning the same problem, but no solution. Can you help?

I've got the same problem with my new MBP 2011 with Snow Leopard and it really annoys me as I'm dealing with multilingual texts every day.
What surprises me is that I had no problems at all since MacOs 10.1 and now it appears in 10.6 !
Back in the old days I had to put a .inputrc file for displaying Japanese characters but that was not a big deal.
When I create a new account, it works for a few hours (Japanese characters display well even with menlo or courier fonts set as default). But after a few manipulations here and there (that do not seem related to terminal or fonts like setting my iTunes account) and a couple of reboots, the problem reappears again, ie the Japanese characters do not display again.
I can temporarily solve the problem by using the Osaka font but 1 it is not nicely displayed with irregular spaces between characters and 2 when I want to display other characters (thai, khmer or whatever), I have to change the default font again. This is a real pain in the neck.
I read in another thread that there is a solution to convert the OpenType Font you wish to use into a TrueType font but it is not a solution for me neither as there is no existing font that covers all the unicode characters.
Is Apple aware of this bug? Did they acknowledge that there is a problem?
If someone finds a solution, I'll be really happy.

AI CC 2014.1.0 -- Character palette does not tell me the name of font in selected text. It remains on the default font.

Since the last update, when I select a piece of text (area or pt), the Character palette still displays the default font. When I am setting or modifying a Paragraph Style, the font is displayed.
It does not make any difference if I am using Typekit.
Is this a glitch? Could this be associated with a prefs setting?
Thanks.

DanBo,
You may try the list.
The following is a general list of things you may try when the issue is not in a specific file (you may have tried/done some of them already); 1) and 2) are the easy ones for temporary strangenesses, and 3) and 4) are specifically aimed at possibly corrupt preferences); 5) is a list in itself, and 6) is the last resort.
If possible/applicable, you should save curent artwork first, of course.
1) Close down Illy and open again;
2) Restart the computer (you may do that up to at least 5 times);
3) Close down Illy and press Ctrl+Alt+Shift/Cmd+Option+Shift during startup (easy but irreversible);
4) Move the folder (follow the link with that name) with Illy closed (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible);
5) Look through and try out the relevant among the Other options (follow the link with that name, Item 7) is a list of usual suspects among other applications that may disturb and confuse Illy, Item 15) applies to CC, CS6, and maybe CS5);
Even more seriously, you may:
6) Uninstall, run the Cleaner Tool (if you have CS3/CS4/CS5/CS6/CC), and reinstall.
