Myriad Roman licensing restrictions on someone else's template:

Hello!
To elaborate - I'm working on a CD artwork, and I'd like to upload all the designs as PDFs.  This is the first time I've done work on these documents on the computer I'm on now, and when I went to save my Illustrator file to a PDF after some new edits, I got a message that the font Myriad-Roman would not embed because of licensing restrictions.  Where there used to be some text in the template, there is now just a bunch of gibberish.
I'm at a loss, because the font is not something I've placed in the document, it's a font that was part of the template I'm working with from disc makers.  I don't know how to fix the issue, or how to get around it.  Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks.

Hi Dov,
While I'm not specifically sure about the font's origins, I am positive it is not part of the Myriad Pro family, as that has been a part of my font library since purchasing the Adobe CS6 package a couple of years ago, and has worked fine the whole time.  From what I could tell in other searches and forum answers here, Myriad Roman is part of an older font package distributed by Adobe.  With that being said, I may still be able to find something off if I check the file access privileges, so I will try that.
The reason I'm not sure how to resolve the issue is because the template is still vital as part of the files that I need to send off.  I'm not familiar enough with their workflow to know whether or not changing something like that in the template could accidentally affect their ability to use the data to print the images.  I think the chances of causing a problem by just changing the font in the template to Myriad Pro are small/negligible, but until I can contact the company tomorrow I won't know for sure. 
My hope was that there was some kind of fix for the licenses/authorization, or that there was some original files I could buy/download to have the proper rights to use the font in the template and just not worry about it.
If you've got any other useful information that could help in those regards, I would be extremely grateful!

  • Changing someone else's template

    I'm using MX 2004 for a freelance project that someone else
    started and my client wants me to finish it. I don't have
    experience using templates. What I usually do is create one page
    and do a "save as" to create the rest of the pages. However, for
    this project, there are templates already made. Instead of
    re-creating the whole project, is there a way to modify the
    previous templates? There are boxes with aqua-colored outlines and
    tabs that have the names of whatever the box is called, like
    "middle column." When I place my mouse over them, it gives me the
    "no" sign (circle with a slash). Can't I delete some of those
    template elements in the code?

  • Myriad Roman/Italic - font licensing issue?

    Dear all,
    I'm asking your help regarding a small issue with the Myriad Roman and Myriad Italic font.
    Today I opened an "old" document I created in a previous Illustrator version (CS 6). But when I wanted to save it into a pdf file, a bad message told me some parts of the file can't be saved due to font restriction: The font Myriad-Roman could not be embedded in the PDF document because of licensing restrictions. Stroke text will not be visible.
    How can I manage this? I have a lot of documents with Myriad Roman or Italic in it, so this is very disturbing for me right now... :-/
    Thanks in advance fo your help

    The fact that you freely “downloaded” these fonts makes this all very suspicious.
    Yes, you can replace these Myriad typefaces with the equivalent Myriad Pro OpenType typefaces, some of which were bundled with CS6 and earlier software. The investment in terms of modifying your content is relatively low if you have used styles appropriately and even if not, Illustrator will prompt you if a font is missing and let you globally replace (you would of course, remove those crufty, possibly hacked old Myriad typefaces first). If you don't have access to those previously bundled, the cost of getting a license for them in both $ and time is quite low compared to other alternatives.

  • After I've Subscribed to the Creative Cloud Can I Transfer Old Licenses to Someone Else?

    I have a question regaring licenses for previous versions of software.  I currently own a number of stand-alone licenses for prior versions of Illustrator, Photoshop and other applications from the Creative Suite.  Once I've upgraded to the Creative Cloud, I'll no longer have a use for these licenses.  Is there anything prohibiting me from transferring these licenses to someone else after I've subscribed?

  • I will give my laptop to someone else, how do I unlink my apple id? Do I need to remove the apps I downloaded with my id?

    I will give my laptop to someone else, how do I unlink my apple id? Is it just the app store unlink? Do I need to remove the apps I downloaded with my id? Will they get removed when I unlink my apple id?
    Are there any other procedures I need to take into account?
    Thanks

    You need to remove all software that you acquired from the Mac App Store, including newer versions of OS X. These are all registered to you and encoded with your Apple ID in the licensed copy. You cannot legally pass any of the software to the new owner, which is why Apple states to erase the Mac and return it to the version of OS X that shipped from the factory on the Mac. You must also remove any older Apple software that you installed by DVD or pass the DVD to the new owner with the Mac.

  • Can I share my iCloud Photostream with someone else with a different Apple ID? How?

    Can I share my iCloud Photostream with someone else with a different Apple ID? How?

    Yeah no kidding.
    I have a big paid up MobileMe account with tons of gallery stuff - this will all go away for me in July, and I'll miss it - it took no learning to use, and it was built into everything - just intuitive to post to a gallery password protect it, and send a link to a friend.  Click click done!
    It bothers me a lot when features I really enjoy and use are pulled in these half baked new apps and services.
    iMovie used to be quite good, but the new one is very restrictive - it's a step backwards in some ways.
    MobileMe was fine, but iCloud takes away the Gallery???? - another step backward.
    We use some iPhones at work for shooting some videos and technical engineering photo's, and while it's pretty cool that the iPhone photo's get put on the photostream of "Jason's iMac", I don't have instant access, and I would really like to be able to do that. If it could be done, then I can stay at home and work sometimes and I can get the photo's automagically.  
    Apple - please fix this.

  • Verizon gave my landline phone number to someone else and now can't fix the problem FOR ME

    I have a landline that is used for emergencies only in case my 7 year old son needs to be transported to the hospital for his seizures.  I tried using the phone about 3 weeks ago during some bad weather only to find out there was no dial tone.  Luckily, my cell phone woked.  I contacted Verizon who sent out a technician who found out that the problem "was on their end."  His work order showed someone else's name and address and he went to their house first before coming to mine.  They told him they didn't have a problem so he came to my address.  
    I had called my "old" number from my cell phone to see if it would ring and ended up speaking to the husband of the lady who had "my" phone number.  The tech asked them if they were willing to give up "my" number and they agreed to do so.  The tech said he would resolve this issue for me because he'd never seen anything like it before.  Maybe he and his supervisor should visit this forum and see how other customers have had the same issue.  I received two calls yesterday from a Verizon customer support rep who tried to restore my service.  She had to transfer me over to security or some department who treated me very rudely and told me to send a copy of my driver license or a copy of a bill to Verizon because they couldn't approve her order request. She had remained on the line with me.  By this point, I'm getting **bleep** because this is the 2nd time I've been transferred to that verification department and I wanted to ask "Why don't I just send a copy of "my" bill showing my name and phone number as verification?  Would that suffice?"  The cust supp rep tried to explain to her what was going on but I am still without service.  I had already verified my info last year when service was established and don't feel the need to provide this info again.  It's Verizon's mess and they should fix it. 
    I am penning my letter to the corporate headquarters today.  I even chatted online with another cust serv rep who was snarky with me until I typed that the chat session would be included with the letter to corporate.  Then she tried to be helpful. What concerns me is even if my number is established, what if it happens again during an emergency?  What about a refund that's owed me for paying for a line that was last used in June 2014 up until the present time?  I want my money back.  I have online banking records showing my payments.  I am thoroughly disappointed in Verizon.  How dare they take my money, turn off my phone, and now can't even restore it.  After I contact their corporate office, if the issue isnt resolved, I am filing a complaint with the State Attorney General's Office as well as the BBB.  I suggest that everyone else who will encounter this problem file a complaint too.

  • Downloading an App in someone else's ID?

    If I download an App in someone else's Apple ID, like some sort of Apple update, will I have to log into their account everytime to do stuff on my computer?
    Thanks!

    Just to be clear - Mountain Lion is not an update, it's an upgrade you need to pay for and it'll be tied to your  Apple ID as mentioned and the machine's ID as well I believe. And the license is not transferable.

  • Font Licensing Restriction Issue

    I recently transferred a lot of ttf and otf fonts (originally purchased for and used on a Windows NT machine) to Mac Book Pro. When I try to use the fonts in Abode CS5.5 (In illustrator) I'm told I need a license. Won't let me embed the fonts, for example, when saving to a PDF. (1) Is this a Mac issue or an Adobe issue? (2) How do I resolve?
    The Illustrator message reads: "The font [name] could not be embedded in the PDF document because of licensing restrictions. Stroked text will not be visible."

    It may be the Mac is more up-to-date with font restriction enforcement, dunno, you may have to Google it. I've run into this for years, generally with free fonts, so before I am ready to produce the final PDF I just outline the font which works fine for print pieces of all sizes but not for online documents with many pages due to file size as the outline shapes are certainly larger in file size than font references based on shapes in fonts that can be embedded.
    You may want to consider asking the font developer first before purchasing again as just repurchasing may not get rid of a "non-embed" setting in a file if that is what the font developer wants there.
    So your options are: use your old Windows workflow, outline fonts, or contact the font developer. Nothing else anyone on discussion boards can do for you.

  • Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 Dolby Audio Decode Licensing Restriction

    I have a Macbook Pro and a Mac Pro. They are both running Premiere Pro CS6 v6.0.2. On my Macbook Pro, I started a project using AVCHD media in the form of .mts files. I believe these files have Dolby Digital Audio. I have project managed all of the files onto my external harddrive for editing on my Mac Pro; however, as I open the project file I recieve an error message "This installation does not have a license to decode Dolby Digital audio". If I then open a different project and check the error log, I see the error "Dolby Audio Decode Licensing Restriction on file..."
    Sometimes when opening the project I also get an error "There is no Preset for this sequence..." or something similar. I cannot rememeber exactly.
    I have the exact same plugins on both my Mac Pro and Macbook Pro. They are running the same version and they are both activated on my Creative Cloud membership. Any thoughts on why I can't open the project on my Mac Pro?

    In short after reading LOTS of people complaining like you have, like I have like probably about 1 million people who own AVCHD cameras have that the most used format to shoot on for home /semi pro users is AVCHD and Premiere... get ready for this... take a deep breath.... DOESNT SUPPORT ITS AUDIO FILES. Its apparently licensed by DOLBY and you ahve to contact and minktonka company and pay.... really sit down first... take another deep breath... they want $300 for the plugin to make it work.
    So Adobe have shafted.... is that a polite enough word... its customers who just want to play their files - not even encode the project to dolby digital - just play and edit their stuff. No even though you own that camera which only lets you shoot in that format and even though you are stuck wanting Premiere, adobe thinks that for the large monthly sum the world can go sit on its finger before they will sort this out.
    Charming huh.
    Adobe are you listening..... hello Adobe... have you gone mad Adobe... hello. Earth calling Adobe.
    As someone pointed out you can play these files on quicktime, media player... so seems apple and microsoft PAY THEIR LICENCES ON BEHALF OF THE USERS OF THEIR PRODUCTS. Adobe must either be skinflints or maybe a nephew of theirs owns Minkytonkatoy firm who are selling that annoying plugin. Ever heard of download sites... cough cough.

  • I need to delete my Serial # from my Adobe ID before giving the CS5 Software to Someone else

    I just bought a CS6 software. I just uninstalled my old version CS5 from my Mac, but Adobe ID is still showing my old software listed. I need to delete that serial number assocated with CS5 from my account before giving it to someone else. I do not understand why Adobe is not giving online support since the software is EXPENSIVE. No one can take the calls. That's BAD support service. I hope this forum will have someone answer my question. Thank you so much in advance.

    Well, Adobe gives support if you follow procedures:

  • HT1904 if i purchased my device with my money is it legal for someone else to put on the parental controls?

    if i purchased my device with my money is it legal for someone else to put on the parental controls?

    That is an interesting question.  If you are at the "age of majority", then why would you allow someone else to put restrictions on your device..  If it is a condition of your employer to use the device on their network services, then you allow it to use the device for their system.  If you are under the age of majority, and your parents are requiring it, sounds like the parents care.

    What version of Premiere Elements is involved? And, what computer operating system?
    Strictly from the point of view of removing a version no longer wanted on a computer, Deactivate and then Uninstall which are not the same
    a. In an opened project, Help Menu/Deactivate or Help Menu/Sign Out (depends on version)
    b. Then uninstalling from the computer the usual Control Panel way (assumes Windows).
    Please also refer to
    Transfer an Adobe product license
    Adobe allows you to use the same purchased activation serial number for a given Premiere Elements version on no more than two of your computers.
    And, written here by others, not both at the same time.

  • Licensing restrictions on cloning databases

    I've asked this in the Database forum, but I've not received any meaningful replies there. Apologies in advance if I'm repeating myself here to no good purpose.
    We currently run Standard Edition 10.2.0.4. We use RMAN to clone a production environment to a different server and call that clone our test environment. We do the same thing to create development environments.
    Our test & dev hardware is not especially great, however, so it was supposed that we could downgrade the licenses on those boxes to Standard Edition One (SE1), which would save us thousands each year. It was also suggested that we leave the production boxes at full Standard Edition.
    We have been told, however, that if production is SE and test/dev is SE1, we cannot then legally use RMAN to clone from the one to the other. That our only choice at that point would be to use export/import techniques to move the data from the SE environment to the SE1 one.
    I know licensing questions are awkward, and I'm not asking for a lawyer's opinion! I would just like to know whether anyone else has heard of or encountered this licensing restriction and has had, as a result, to use exp/imp or expd/impd instead of RMAN to create dev/test environments. Or is our informant completely misguided when he states that use of RMAN to clone between SE and SE1 environments would be outside the license terms for either?

    As per Licensing terms what I know is as developer Licensing you can you the DB free of licence.
    I do not see any problem moving your data to the development instance and do testing and developments.
    If you are doing this as a parallel reporting requirement then you may face with licensing issue. There also if both you instance as active passive. (Always one instance is in passive mode) again you may not have to face this issue.
    I am not sure about using rman that there is any restriction as such if you are facing such issues why don't you do a cold backup to do the cloning.(Shutdown the DB and copy the required files to start the other instance)
    I hope you might have got some kind of a useful answered.
    All the best..
    Regards, Shaamil.

  • If I suspect someone else besides me using my software, what do i do?

    what if i suspect someone else is using my software on their machine, is there a way to unauthorize them without effecting my account? Right now, I only have my software installed on one machine, but if I get a tablet, or 2nd machine, i do not want complications. Also, what if they try to upgrade my software? Am I protected?

    1.  If you are concerned please don't hesitate to contact our support team.  You can reach chat support at http://adobe.ly/yxj0t6.
    2.  No each purchase has it's own serial number/license key.  Unless they have access to your account at Adobe.com they would be unable to obtain the new serial number.  If you are concerned that they do have access to your account then I would recommend changing your password.
    3.  No as long as the software is registered to you.  For the license to be transfered you would need to fill out a transfer of product license form.
