PSE 8 and Vista: Fonts

Hi. I'm extremely new to photoshop. I'm working on a project and want a different font than what PSE 8 has. (I am surprised that it only has 20-30 styles). I went online and found what I wanted and downloaded it to my computer. It's available in my Microsoft Word, but yet PSE 8 does not recognize it or other types of font already on my computer. I went into my program files, adobe, photoshop and found the font file and even tried to drop the font into there, but again, it wouldn't accept it.
Am I doing something wrong or can someone please guide me on how to do this? My computer is new (2-2009). I am using Vista.
Thanks so much for any help you can give me.

Adobe doesn't provide support for PSE 7 or earlier on Vista 64, though many people have reported that it runs just fine:
http://www.johnrellis.com/psedbtool/photoshopelements-6-7-faq.htm#_PSE_and_Vista
While Adobe has committed in writing that PSE 8 will run on Windows 7, they don't say if they'll support Windows 7 64-bit (Windows 7 has 32- and 64-bit flavors, just like Vista and XP). It wouldn't surprise me if Adobe declines to support Windows 7 64-bit, just as they have with Vista.
However, the problems you're experiencing are very possibly not related to Vista 64. See this FAQ for troubleshooting PSE Editor crashes:

Finally, you could try downloading the 30-day free trial of PSE 8 from Adobe.com.

PSE7 and Vista 64bit compatibility

Can anyone give me a definitive answer as to whether PSE7 will run on Vista 64bit?

Mo,
Here's some more information on PSE and Vista 64:
http://www.johnrellis.com/psedbtool/photoshopelements-6-7-faq.htm#_PSE_and_Vista
One thing not yet listed in the FAQ: The PSE 7 downloader won't launch on Vista 64 -- you have to run it manually via File > Get Photos And Videos.

PSE 6 + vista 64

I've used PSE 6 in my desktop PC (Vista Home Premium edition, 32 bit) successfully for two years. I recently got a Dell Laptop, Vista Home Premium Edition 64 bit. I installed my PSE 6 into this Laptop, successfully, I thought, but no joy. When trying to access a jpg file for editing the program hangs - it cannot open the photo file. Of course I tried this many times with many different photo files. Also tried reinstalling PSE 6 - no joy.
I see that other participants in the forum say that PSE 6 will work with Vista 64 bit. Is there a special installation technique that will let it work?
I telephoned Adobe and they said that PSE is not compatible with Vista 64. I also see in the forum that Adobe will not support PSE and Vista 64. Because of this I am reluctant to buy PSE 7 in the hope that it will work with my Vista 64.
Thanks much to anyone who has any ideas about this.

Hi John
Tnx very much for responding so quickly to my question.
I'm in the PSE 6 Editor; I click on File, and then click on Open. I go to
my Pictures folder and click on a jpg file so I can edit it - crop, resize,
and so on.
On my Vista 32 bit machine the picture comes thorugh extremely rapidly,
perhaps a couple of seconds. On the Vista 64 bit machine our little circle
keeps revolving (it's supposed to tell you that something is happening)
forever and ever without the selected picture showing up on the editing
screen. I'm not sure how long I've waited for a picture to appear - maybe 30
seconds. After a while it's quite apparent that you're not going to get a
picture. But there is no error message of any kind.
I know Vista has a compatibility mode for software installation - I've used
that very infrequently and not at all for a long time. Maybe a
"compatibility mode" installation will solve this problem. I was very
surprised, this morning, to see that other people said in the forum that
their PSE 6 worked with their Vista 64 bit machines. I hope that's true.
Thank you for your help.

In adobe pse and nikon nx2, I open 2 images, select in 1 a head, copy, open image 2 and paste, than only the outlines of the selection apears but no head. who knows this problem?

in adobe PSE and in Nion NX2, I open 2 group Photos, select a head in photo 1 and copy, go to photo 2 and paste. Than only the selection-line
appears and no head is visible! Who can tell me what is going wrong? Thanks: Max.

I am sorry to have to point out to you that you have changed SpryMenuBasicSkin.css so much that it is impossible to render any assistance.
To start with, the menubar has an ID of MenuBar, yet in the CSS I only see this referenced as a CLASS as in
.MenuBar {
background-color:#cccccc;
font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; /* Specify fonts on on MenuBar and subMenu MenuItemContainer, so MenuItemContainer,
MenuItem, and MenuItemLabel
at a given level all use same definition for ems.
Note that this means the size is also inherited to child submenus,
so use caution in using relative sizes other than
100% on submenu fonts. */
font-weight: normal;
font-size: 16px;
font-style: normal;
padding:0;
border-color: #ffffff #ffffff #ffffff #ffffff;
border-width:0px;
border-style: none none none none;
I would suggest to start again.
Once you have done that, supply a link to your site and we will assist you further.

Windows Vista Font Mangement?

I just transitioned from WinXP and using ATM deluxe to Windows Vista. I've got hundreds of Postscript, TrueType, and OpenType font variations that I use for any number of design projects which I absolutely need to manage somehow. I've been reading the threads about why ATM was discontinued, that all fonts can be installed in the Windows Fonts folder, etc. However, that does not solve the issue of actually managing the fonts (custom grouping them, turning them 'on' and 'off', viewing samples, etc). While ATM wasn't the best, it was the simplest to use. There are a number of font management utilities out there, my question is... Which Font Management software is the easiest to use, most reliable (stablest), and best for managing fonts on Windows?
thanks,
Kathleen

I do not use a font manager, I keep my fonts on a separate partition and add them to Vista with the font manager, but I deselect 'copy font'.
Using a separate partition means that the fonts will never fragment or get corrupted unless the disk goes.
I have 2600+ fonts active at all times and it does not create a problem.

If someone wanted to download the vistafonts.zip, which has been "leaked" from MS and is floating around the internet, one could, theoretically use the following PKGBUILD and install file to install them. Not that I would encourage that of course - but it's up to you:

personally I think they are pretty nice, also I like to have a nicely build

Mono definetaly outperforms Consolas at smaller sizes.
Calibri is a nice sans-serif one for small place. Candara is really well done

Windows XP Pro (32-bit) and Vista Ultimate (64-bit) on the same Mac Pro HD?

Has anyone been able to install both Windows XP Pro (32-bit) and Windows Vista Ultimate (64-bit) on the same dedicated Windows hard drive? I have four HD in my Mac Pro, and one of them is dedicated for Windows (and bootable via Boot Camp). I found the following technical articles about installing Windows XP & Vista on the same hard drive (using two separate partitions) using a VMWare machine as the test system:
http://apcmag.com/howto_dual_boot_vista_and_xp_with_vista_installed_first__the_stepbystepguide.htm

Has anyone successfully installed Windows XP (32-bit) and Vista 64-bit) on the same NTFS partition?
I already have Windows XP Pro (32-bit) SP3 installed on my single NTFS hard drive. I am looking for the best way to add the Vista 64-bit installation on the same hard drive.
Any thoughts and advise are appreciated.

Windows has its own list of boot OSs, and default, from msconfig. It will sit and wait for xx-seconds on startup in Windows if you want to boot from an alternate.
As to whether Apple's OS Switcher (aka startup disk bootcamp control panel or tray icon) sees both, I had Windows Home Premium and Ultimate 64, and pretty sure OS X saw both. That was pre-Leopard and before there were 64-bit Apple drivers.
I can't think of any scenerio of wanting to mix 32-bit and 64-bit on the same paritition, you realize you can't install the one over the other and must do a clean install.
When I added a partition out of main partition (I wanted to put search index and page file on their own partition) those partitions aren't seen - are hidden - to Leopard.

I have iphone 4s and just bought an ebook for ibook, trouble is the font is so tiny I can't read it and the font sizer is not working? Please help!

Hi, I have the iphone 4s and just bought an ebook for ibook, trouble is the font is so tiny I can't read it and the font sizer is not working? Please help!

Hello Glittergirl68,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like the function to reseize the Font in an iBook is not functioning properly.
I recommend a few things here. First close all the apps that are running in the background:
Double-click the Home button.
Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
Swipe the app up to close it.
From: iOS: Force an app to close
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
When you have done that, restart the phone, and try again.
If the issue persists, I would follow these steps from the article:
iOS: Troubleshooting apps purchased from the App Store
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1702
2. Check for app updates
You can setup apps to update automatically in Settings > iTunes & App Store, but make sure that your apps are up to date:
Open the App Store and tap Updates. If updates are available, tap Update All.
If prompted, enter your iTunes Store account information. App Store will then download and install the app updates.
Note: Some apps may require a Wi-Fi connection to update.
3. Install another app from the App Store
If none of your user-installed apps will launch, there could be an issue with Apple ID authorization. Download and install an app that isn't already installed on your device to reset this information. You can also remove an app from your iOS device and download it again from the App Store or sync the app from your computer.Note: If you have installed apps using multiple Apple ID accounts, you may need to perform this step for each account.
4. Restart the app
If the issue affects only a single app, try closing just that app.
5. Restart your device
Turn the device off and on.
6. Reinstall the affected app
Remove the app from your device and reinstall it:
Tap and hold any app icon on the Home Screen until the icons start to wiggle and show a small "x" in the top-right corner of the app.
Tap the "x" in the corner of the app you want to delete.
Tap Delete to remove the app and all of its data from your device.
Press the Home button.
Go to the App Store.
Search for the app and then download it again.
All the very best,
Sterling

Firefox mage quality and resolution was superb when I used XP and Vista. Now that I have Windows 7, however (with the Firefox 3.6.3 version), the image quality and resolution is poor. Please help me!

I am using the Firefox 3.6.3 version with my new Windows 7 operating system. When I used all the previous Firefox versions in my XP and Vista operating systems, image quality and resolution was excellent! However, now that I have upgraded to Windows 7 and Firefox 3.6.3, the image quality and resolution is poor (unacceptable for downloading purposes).
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== I first activated my new computer and installed the Firefox 3.6.3.

All my images are pixelated in firefox 3.6.3
http://www.dcgdcreative.com
Not only on my site but on most sites I view.
The issue is not solved by resetting the zoom text view (ctrl+0)
The issue is not resolved by starting in safemode with add-ons disabled
The problem seems to only affect .jpeg files and only on Windows 7 on my desktop; as I have viewed several sites using windows XP with my laptop, no issues.
I had the same issue with IE8 and was able to fix the problem with by setting up the compatibility view for all sites. Issue fixed no problems at all. But nothing similar for firefox?
Whats the deal?

After removing system fonts and reinstalling fonts, FireFox will not start

After removing system fonts and reinstalling fonts, FireFox will not start! When I start FireFox the "Mozilla Crash Reporter" opens as if FF just crashed??? I don't see any records in event viewer. I am using FF v3.6.3 on a Windows 7 box. I tried uninstalling 3.6.3 and installing 3.0.18 and had the same problem!
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== After a uninstalled all fonts including system fonts and then reinstalling system fonts. ==
== User Agent ==
Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 8.0; Windows NT 6.1; Trident/4.0; GTB6.4; SLCC2; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; .NET CLR 3.5.30729; .NET CLR 3.0.30729; Media Center PC 6.0; AskTB5.5)

The files with submitted crash report ids are inside the ''submitted '' directory, from the directory you found the LastCrash.txt timestamp file.
The file names will begin with '''bp-'''
There might be more information from the crash report, but it might just tell us you are crashing the first time Firefox tries to use a font.
One thing I suppose you could do is select only those fonts you've got in Tools -> Options -> Content -> Fonts and Colors -> Advanced and then uncheck the '''Allow pages to use their own fonts''' option.
See http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Options+window+-+Content+panel#Fonts_Dialog
To be honest, I can't find anything on this Netscape Font Navigator and it sounds highly dubious.

I just purchased Export PDF, and when I use it, it opens them in WordPad (which I never use) instead of Word. Thus, the pictures are not there, and the fonts are changed. How do I get into Word?

Hi,
I checked your account,your Export PDF subscription is in 'Pending' status.
Once it gets confirmed you will be able to use it.

Using VMWare Fusion and Vista for NetFlix Watch Now

Hi, I have installed Fusion and Vista in order to use NetFlix's Watch Now feature on my MBA. The installation was easy and Vista seems to be working fine. However, I can't get the Watch Now movie going. The film will start (after NetFlix determines my internet speed, etc.) and alternate between play and pause. Has anyone used this combination with success? Would a downgrade to XP work better? Or I should just use Boot Camp? Thanks.

I've used WinXP with Fusion on a MacMini and it was fine (but faster in BootCamp). I'm currently running Vista Business on a MacBook Pro in Parallels and while it isn't slow, it certainly is slower than in BootCamp. I expect Fusion would run Vista a bit faster - Fusion does tend to be a bit faster than Parallels but Parallels seems to get along better than Fusion with one of the applications I'm using.
There are advantages to BootCamp and BC isn't incompatible with virtualization. I suggest that you go ahead and install Vista in BootCamp. If you haven't already bought Fusion, download the demo and see how it runs using the BootCamp installation and compare that to BootCamp itself. Then decide.

I have a macbook pro 17". How can I change the way things look? The page only takes about half of the screen and the fonts are fairly small. I am sure there is an easy adjustment. Please clue me in. Thanks

P1006 - networked with XP and VIsta-64 not printing more than 2 pages

Hello - I have a dilemma with my HP P1006. I have the printer directly plugged in (USB) with my XP (32bit) PC. I have a Vista-64 PC networked with it. Both (XP-32 and Vista-64) are plugged in directly to the router (not wireless). My question is why can I not print more than two pages at a time with items opened on the Vista-64 PC? I CAN print more than two pages with items opened in the XP-32.
Things I've done:
1 - uninstalled everything & reinstalled the latest drivers for the XP-32.
2 - marked the printer as "sharing" on the XP-32.
3 - confirmed the printer is marked "enable bidirectional sharing" under the printer properties on the XP-32 PC.
Things I perplexed about:
1 - why won't items (docs, webpages, etc.) print more than two pages at a time from the Vista-64 PC?
2 - is there any reason that I should download a driver for the Vista-64 OS? If so, which PC do I download it to?
3 - I have another printer (Lexmark inkjet) connected in the same way (except it is a serial port not USB) and it can print more than two pages of a document at one time with no problem from either the XP-32 or Vista-64 PC? Why?
Any thoughts on this situation? Any suggestions are greatly appreciate.
Thank you - Jane.

Hi!
I just get a system message at teh bottom of teh screen saying "output cannot be issued " and it remains on teh same screen . I goto t-code va23 and enter my quotation number and on the top I select sales document ...issue output and select my output type and print preview or prnit , it comes out of that screen into the first screen and at the bottom gives msg "Output cannot be issued". I beleiev its not allowing the smartform to display when there are more than 2 pages , because I tried it with a contact which has 2 pages and it shows output but when I try with the one having more items i.e more than 2 pages it comes out of it . Its a smartform issue and something in the smartform is causing problem I beleive.
Thanks
