Packaged file contains empty font folder

My printer called to tell me that the font folder in the packaged file is empty. When I check the report created in the packaging process, 23 fonts (Open Type) are listed. Why won't they appear in the Fonts folder once packaging is complete?

It would be good to try a couple of troubleshooting techniques.
If it only happens to that one file, there may be corruption in the InDesign file. Save as IDML and reopen in InDesign, then repeat the packaging process.
There could also be corruption in your InDesign preferences. You can restore them with this method:

I bought and installed many fonts for a project and one font in particular which is showing up in the font list on a new file, is missing when I open an existing file containing that font. I can't understand why that's happening and the font is Centrale S

Hi
I am encountering a missing font error on Adobe Illustrator for a font that I recently bought - Centrale Sans Bold. This font is clearly installed in the system's font folder and is also showing in the font list on Adobe Illustrator. But when I open an existing file containing this font it is giving the error "The document uses fonts or characters which are not available or are in a different format than originally specified".
We have also bought Centrale Sans regular from a different website as we couldn't find both on one, could that be clashing somehow?
Also the existing file was created on MAC plattform and we are using a windows plattform to open it. That to me doesn't seem like an issue as all other files are opening up fine and I have bought around 47 fonts and only this font seems to be not working. I have also written to the website I bought it from but I have also bought around 20-25 fonts from them and all the other fonts are working fine too. Maybe its an illustrator related problem?
Please help!!!!!!

There is one way its getting fixed. Once I update my Adobe Illustrator CC to Adobe Illustrator CC 2014 it is further allowing me to go into the system folder and allocate the font to the file so that it can replace it. My only concern now is that our MAC partners who will receive these files back from us have Adobe CS6. We will down save it to CS6 but I hope they won't experience any font issues because of us using CC 2014? Any light you can shed on this?

Get directory listing or files contained in a folder which is placed on a s

Hello,
I want to get the directory listing of a particular folder say 'xyz' which is placed on the server.
I am using tomcat. I want to use Http to do it. How do it do it.
Please guide.
Regards,
JAVA_student

JAVA_student ,
as pointed out file list is (in productional environments) usually turned off for security reasons.
But I had a similiar requirement to the one you posted. I had a directory with thousands of image files with the name pattern <id>.jpg and the id's stored in a database. Not for every id in the database there existed a file. I wanted to show an image or in case the image file did not exist a default jpg. I could not set the error pages in web.xml to do it.
So I had to take the id (a parameter in the request to the servlet I wrote for that), had to concat it with the 'virtual' directory name used in the applicationserver for the img directory. Then I had to check the existance of the file and to load it it and display it, if it existed otherwise I had to load and display the default picture.
The problem is similiar to yours as the problem basically is to map a directory in a web application to a real directory in a filesystem (which works for files and directories.
The answer is use getRealPath(String) of the ServletContext-object.
Note: This only allows access to files and directories in the web application.
e.g.
http://www.theserver.com/mywebapp/img/ is a folder containing img files. The server does not allow directory listing.
In a jsp within the application mywebapp you want to show a list of the files in /mywebapp/img/ .
<HTML>
<BODY>
<%
// in a jsp application gives you access to the context
String sRealPath = application.getRealPath("/img") ;
java.io.File fDir = new java.io.File(sRealPath) ;
java.io.File[] allFiles = fDir.listFiles() ;
for (int i = 0 ; i < allFiles.length;i++) {
String sName = allFiles.getName() ;
%>
<%=sName%><br>
<%
%>
</BODY>
</HTML>

For some reason, when I access FINDER I only can see my files alphabetically, by kind, date etc. In can't see the "tree" of the folders. How can I show the files contained in a folder as a group?

How can I:
- Display the tree structure of the folders.
- Display my files grouped by folders

Do you mean when you do a Save, or when you click on the Finder icon on your Dock?
If it's the former click on the arrow to the right of the Save to reveal full finder.
If it's the latter show the Finder Sidebar and choose your Home folder.

Document fonts folder missing within InDesign package?

Help - when I attempt to preflight my document, the document fonts folder is missing entirely. This is quite strange as it seems to just happen out of nowhere. I have packaged documents each day up until today with out any issues. So essentially the final package will contain the indd file, txt file, and links folder. The document fonts folder is missing.... Any insight would be greatly appreciated!

Preflight and package are different operations entirely.
Assuming that you mean "package" (that's what would create the links and fonts folders), there's a checkbox in the window where you choose where you want your package to be saved: "Copy Fonts (Except CJK)". If that box is unchecked, then no Document Fonts folder will be created.

How to package .tld files into MATA-INF folder with jar?

I noticed that tag lib jar file contains *.tld under its META-INF folder. Justwonder how to implement this with command jar? Thank you!

I have discovered how to get it to work, but I'm not sure what the problem is. I can consistently duplicate it.
If I manually copy a file into the myapp\src folder, the file does not get copied to the bin-debug folder and, thus does not get added to the list of files to include. I build my app dozens of times. This file NEVER appears in the file list under the src folder in the Package Explorer View. Even if I close Flash Builder and open it again, my added file NEVER appears in the file list.
Only if I right click on my project in the Package Explorer View and select Refresh, will the file appear in the list. Then and only then, when I go through the Export process, the file will appear in the list and be included in the AIR package.
That seems like a bug to me. Even if you said it wouldn't detect the file being added while Flash Builder is open, it should at least check the project folder when I open it and update the list with any new files.
I'd still like to know how to get this to work without manually refreshing the project although admittedly I won't be adding files to the project often.
The "Copy non-embedded files to output folder" option is something good to know. I initially unchecked it and saved and rechecked it, just to be sure it was set.

Indesign Package fonts folder name: "Document fonts" vs "Fonts"

Hi,
I have a few indesign packages from customers/product management for testing purposes.
The relevant part for my question is the name for the folder with fonts. Most packages would have fonts in a folder called "Document fonts", which seems to be what Indesign CC wants.
I have one package though that seems to be created properly,as in through the Indesign options to create the package and not manually (has the instructions file in it), but the fonts are in a folder called just "Fonts". If I open it in Indesign CC (Client and Server) and fonts are not found. It works fine if I rename the folder.
So, I am not familiar at all with older indesign version, is it possible that Indesign (any version) would create a package with fonts in a folder named "Fonts" (as opposed to "Document fonts")?
thank you
Cristian

Older versions up to InDesign CS4 named the folder Fonts. It was renamed to Document Fonts when the functionality was added to temporarily install fonts for only one document. That is why the font folder has to be in same directory as the INDD file and has to have the exact name Document Fonts.
You can hold down the cmd key (Mac) and the CTRL key on Windows and go to the menu About InDesign… in the InDesign Menu on the Mac, in the Help Menu on Windows.
It will tell you the history of your file, and you can learn when this document was, made, when it was crashed, when it was recovered, when it was packaged and with which prom version and OS version. So you can identify some problems which might be inherited in a document.

I cannot delete a file from the document folder. I can move it to the trash and then empty the trash, but when I go back to the documents folder it is still there.

TS3212 I keep getting this error message "The folder path 'Program Files' contains an invalid character.' when upgrading itunes to Itunes 10. I could not uninstall because of the same error message. What needs to done?

Can not download and install Itunes 10 - Get this message "The folder path 'Program Files' contain an invalid character. I tried to uninstall my old Itune through Control Panel but get the same message. What do I need to do?

ITunes fails to install update "folder path program files contains an invalid character"

I'm trying to get the newest version of itunes, but I keep getting "the folder path program files contains an invalid character." I've seen on here before attempts to use Microsoft fix it and Windows Clean up which I've tried and both haven't helped. I've gone to youtube and tried to delete the appropriate folders under the registry edit. Nothing seems to work. I need the new itunes to update my iphone because of the recent hardware crash via the new update.

At what stage in the process does this occur?
For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for installation or performance issues, or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there are also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.

ITunes Update attempt: "The folder path 'Program Files' contains an invalid character"

How can I install the latest version when I get this message : "The folder path 'Program Files' contains an invalid character"? The message appears when I try to install the update and it appears when I try to uninstall the previous version. The instructions for manual uninstall says to use the Control Panel Uninstall Programs first and then "clean up" -- but I can't use the Control Panel Uninstall. I am running iTunes from an external drive. What to do?

That's normally produced by a damaged iTunes.msi. The basic treatment for it is given in the following user tip:
["not a valid short file name" and "invalid character" install errors|http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2368028]
... but since Microsoft pulled the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from their Downloads Center, things have grown more difficult. First we have to find a copy of the utility.
Let's try Googling. (Best not to use Bing, I think.) Look for a working download site for at least version 3.0 of the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. After downloading the utility installer file (msicuu2.exe), scan the file for malware, just in case. (I use the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware to do single-file scans for that.)
If the file is clean, to install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you've downloaded.
Now start with *step 4* from the user tip, and proceed from there.
(If you do find a clean download site for the correct version of CleanUp, please don't tell me where it is. Without wishing to sound paranoid (although I grant it does sound paranoid), there is a non-zero chance that posting links to download locations for the utility here at Discussions leads to that download location being shut down.)

Error Message:The folder path 'Program Files' contains an invalid character

I have an 80G iPod. I never had a problem with the itunes program until I switched to Vista. When I try to open iTunes I get the following error message:
*The folder path 'Program Files' contains an invalid character*
I have itunes installed on both my HP and on an external hard drive that I use as my backup in case something goes wrong. Neither one opens and I get the same error message on both. I have tried to uninstall iTunes and then reinstall and get the same message so I can't uninstall.
I'm really frustrated, I need to get to my music for a huge presentation in a few days. Can anyone help?
Thanks in advance,
Jejo

Error data file is empty in standard Copy package

Hi,
We have an appset that consists of four applications and we can't successfully run Data Manager Copy package in one of them. It launches the following tasks: Dump, Convert (execution fails in this step with error "Data file is empty") and Load. SSIS configuration in BIDS is defined by default and we haven't set any parameter.
We have figured out this error appears when we select any member of a dimension in "COPYMOVEINPUT" prompt except for Time dimension. Previously there was a custom Copy package based on standard BPC and it only filters by Time dimension. Perhaps this error is related to application configuration to run custom package.
We show code:
INFO(%TEMPFILE1%,%TEMPPATH%%RANDOMFILE%)
INFO(%TEMPFILE2%,%TEMPPATH%%RANDOMFILE%)
TASK(DUMP,APPSET,%APPSET%)
TASK(DUMP,APP,%APP%)
TASK(DUMP,USER,%USER%)
TASK(DUMP,FILE,%TEMPFILE1%)
TASK(DUMP,SQL,%SQLDUMP%)
TASK(DUMP,DATATRANSFERMODE,2)
TASK(CONVERT,INPUTFILE,%TEMPFILE1%)
TASK(CONVERT,OUTPUTFILE,%TEMPFILE2%)
TASK(CONVERT,CONVERSIONFILE,%CONVERSION_INSTRUCTIONS%)
TASK(LOAD,APPSET,%APPSET%)
TASK(LOAD,APP,%APP%)
TASK(LOAD,USER,%USER%)
TASK(LOAD,FILE,%TEMPFILE2%)
TASK(LOAD,DATATRANSFERMODE,4)
TASK(LOAD,DMMCOPY,1)
TASK(LOAD,CLEARDATA,%CLEARDATA%)
TASK(LOAD,RUNTHELOGIC,%RUNLOGIC%)
TASK(LOAD,CHECKLCK,%CHECKLCK%)
Any variables as %CONVERSION_INSTRUCTIONS% aren't defined. Is it a system constant?
Thanks.

Clear Data package - "The data file is empty." Error

Hi,
When I run the Clear package in Data Manager, I get the error "The data file is empty". We are running BPC 7.5 SP3. There are no calculated members selected. Any suggestions?
Thanks.
Tom

Hi Tom,
If i'm not mistaken when we run the clear data package, BPC inserts -ve values for the combination of dimensions selected.
For ex if you have selected time as 2010.DEC it would reverse out all these values by inserting negative values which would then total up to zero.
So i still think it could be a problem with the Transformation file.
P.S. Maybe you can try using the Clear from Fact table package.
