Re-Install language fonts/caracters : Hindi

Hello!
Now that I decide to learn Hindi, it seems that I have to re-install these specific fonts, which are available on one of my DVD installation disk. The problem is it seems I have to re-install all the Mac OS X software from scratch. Any idea, tip or hint on how to reach the proper language package exclusively, and install it? Is there a safer way to install thses hindi fonts without taking the risk to mess around and lose data or go through a whole global installation process? Are they simply just available for mac on any regular internet site to be simply downloaded, and how/where?
Thanks a million! ahmed2007

Hi ahmed2007,
The method to reinstall all, or some of the fonts from the original install disks is explained at the bottom of my article, Font Management in Mac OS X Tiger and Panther.
Which one is the Hindi font, I couldn't tell you. But it's the method you're looking for.

Kannada language font - How to install in E6-00?

I have recently bought E6-00 in India. It has English and Hindi language fonts. As I often need to see messages typed in Kannada which is a local language, I would need to install it. How do I go about installing Kannada font in my E6-00? -BBN.

The E6-00 is based on the Symbian operating system.
On Symbian you can install and override default/system fonts, if you wish (and have compatible font files).
Here's an old blog article describing the process:

Install the new fonts on the memory card; restoring the phone is easier, if you can just pull out the memory card.

1602 errors when trying to install the Extended Asian Language font pack for Adobe Reader XI

My company is trying to deploy Adobe Reader XI 11.0.10 with the Extended Asian Language font pack via SCCM 2007, and some computers are failing the install of the Extended Asian Language font pack with 1602 error. Reader is installing successfully, but the font pack log file will have this entry:
ADelRCP logging: : In Process : MsiExec.exe
ADelRCP logging: : Setup terminated because critical files are in use or applications that interfere with files installed by setup are running. Review the preceding entries in the log file and close the applications listed before retrying setup.
CustomAction ApplicationInUse returned actual error code 1602 (note this may not be 100% accurate if translation happened inside sandbox)
Action ended 9:08:42: ApplicationInUse. Return value 2.
Action ended 9:08:42: INSTALL. Return value 2.
Our automation to install this is killing Reader and Acrobat before running the Reader 11.0.10 install, so I do not know what would be in use here.
I appreicate any suggestions you have. I can provide the entire log file, upon request. Thanks.

Install Foreign Language Fonts

Hello,
I am trying to install foreign language unicode fonts (Japanese) on my Macbook Pro. In particular, I am trying to install these fonts: http://www.dennybritz.com/ttf30.zip. The fonts install fine under Windows.
However, Mac OS X does not recognize them as unicode or Japanese fonts. The font name contains weird characters and I cannot use them when typing in Japanese.
Any suggestions?
Thank you,
Denny

Denny, I tried installing the two “marugo” fonts from the archive using Font Book, and they installed fine. I then tried using them: the katakana came out OK while typing, but not the kanji — however, kanji typed in a standard Apple Japanese font could be copied and pasted, and the font could then be changed to one of those in the archive.
I suspect that the problem is that these fonts date back to 2000, and that they were made for Windows; the reason that the font names appear strange is because the character set of the font names is encoded in Shift JIS, while the bytes in those names are treated as being MacRoman under Mac OS X. (Their intended names can be seen [here|http://www.wazu.jp/gallery/Fonts_Japanese.html] — search for “EPSON” in that page.) The font files would likely need to be modified (using an appropriate tool, e.g. FontForge) to work as expected under Mac OS X.

Acrobat 9 Pro - Creating a PDF of a webpage in a language such as Hindi or Punjabi

Using the 'Create PDF From Webpage' command of a webpage in languages such as Hindi or Punjabi results mainly in a blank PDF where the text should appear. My system has all the required Fonts already installed in order to render the respective scripts but the resultant PDF file is still blank.
Note, however, the generated PDF does display a title in the target font but some of the characters appear to be misordered. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Will

Hi, George. Thank you again for pointing a new user in the right direction.
It took me a while to get some time to sit down with this again, but I was able to take your information above (specifically that what I wanted to do was create and spawn a page template... I would not have known what terms to use to find the information on my own) and search out the kind of script code and procedure needed to execute the "spawn".
Everything works perfectly and as I needed it to! And it was easy once I figured out what to do.
Thank you Thank you Thank you!

Korean Language Fonts?

I recently composed a notice in Word2007, used Acrobat 9 to convert to PDF and posted the file on my webpage. This is not the first time I have done this, but this time about 5 of my visitors have emailed me to complain that they get a notification that "Korean language fonts need to be installed for this document to display properly", or words to that effect. When I check from my desk (Win 7/Firefox 3) I see no notice. From my son's laptop (Win XP/Firefox 3), I get the notice, accompanied by a "Download Now" button. Visitors using Safari and Int Explorer get the notice but no download option, just a blank file.
This is a new quirk - where is the need for Korean fonts coming from? The document is in English. How do I make this document accessible for all visitors? The "Document > Properties" windows shows nothing about non-English or other unusual fonts.

I just realized that all the fonts listed are ANSI-encoded, except ArielUnicodeMS, which is encoded as "KSCms-UHC-H" whatever the heck that is. Might this appear to Acrobat as a foreign font?

Having issues with created PDFs requiring Japanese language font pack when they should not

Last week, I created 3 forms for someone. They wanted a fourth, so I put that together today, but halfway through making it, my Livecycle crashed and refused to load up again (I have NO idea why...), so I reinstalled it. I went on to finish making the form, but for some reason, even though the language settings is set to English and not viewer's default locale, the form requires a Japanese font pack. My computer is set to Japanese locale, but with the default language set to English, it should bypass this. The oddest thing is that one of the 3 forms that I already created and sent to them (and worked fine!!!), now also asks me for Japanese language font packs. What the heck is going on?
The forms use nothing other than Myriad Pro, which is set to be embedded. My Acrobat opens them all just fine and shows font properties correctly, but my Reader dies and asks for Japanese font packs. Please help, thank you!
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1910267/injection.pdf
This is a link to one of the 2 forms that is giving me trouble. It's simple, and was already created before my Acrobat reinstall, yet is now asking for Japanese fonts...
Edit: Forms were created using Livecycle Designer ES 2.5. I'm testing with Acrobat X and Reader X.

Thanks for your reply!
Ok, the form I linked, I actually only tested on my own machine, but had the Japanese font error so I assumed it held true for the new one as well. Here is the one I made today that has been tested on 4 computers (list below): http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1910267/treatment_notes.pdf
These are the computers it was tested on:
My own computer (Windows 7, format/location set to English/US, default non-Unicode language Japanese, System Locale Japan) - pops up error in Reader X, but not Acrobat Pro X
These 3 computers are all set to complete English/US and do not have Acrobat:
The recipient's computer (not sure what OS, likely Reader X, no other languages installed) - popped up the error asking for Japanese fonts
My mother's computer (XP, Reader 9, I know it has Chinese installed, but I don't think it has Japanese) - no errors
My brother's computer (Vista, Reader 9, no other languages installed) - popped up the Japanese font error
And just for fun I tried on the HP Touchpad (Reader 10.3), but it just gives that error that it can't display the contents of the pdf. I think the WebOS port of Reader either is horribly incomplete somehow, or otherwise I have no idea.
I noticed the similar threads, but since they are unanswered, I thought I'd try again and see if I could get an answer. I've got my hands in the air at this point...

[Solved, install dejavu font] Libre Office fonts are rendered as boxes

Been a while since I've posted and thank you in advance for any help offered.
My issue is pretty straight forward: all my menus and fonts in Libre Office Writer show up as boxes instead of letters. I have searched the wiki and forums for a solution but most people who have this problem fix the issue by installing the right language pack.
As you can see below that isn't my issue:
local/libreoffice-common 4.1.4-3 (libreoffice)
common files for LibreOffice - a productivity suite that is compatible with other major office suites
local/libreoffice-en-US 4.1.4-3
English (US) language pack for LibreOffice
local/libreoffice-writer 4.1.4-3 (libreoffice)
Word Processor Application for LibreOffice.
I have no plug-ins installed apart from hunspell, mythes and hyphenation. I removed these packages but there was no change.
This machine is a Dell laptop with the Intel video chip and thus I have the correct driver installed and everything else works fine:
:root: ~ : pacman -Qs intel
local/intel-dri 10.0.2-1
Mesa drivers for Intel
local/xf86-video-intel 2.99.907-2 (xorg-drivers xorg)
X.org Intel i810/i830/i915/945G/G965+ video drivers
I tried nuking my Libre Office directory in my home directory but that yielded no change. My .gtk-* directories don't contain anything specific to LO.
These are the only fonts I've added to this install (thanks boohoomil) and are not customised in any way:
local/cairo-infinality-ultimate 1.12.16-3 (infinality-bundle)
Cairo vector graphics library with respect-fontconfig, expose and Ubuntu patches (infinality-bundle)
local/fontconfig-infinality-ultimate 2.11.0-15 (infinality-bundle)
A library for configuring and customizing font access (includes generic fontconfig package and ultimate settings by bohoomil).
local/freetype2-infinality-ultimate 2.5.2-3 (infinality-bundle)
TrueType font rendering library with Infinality patches and custom settings by bohoomil (infinality-bundle).
I have gone so far as to try snapwm and Xfce4 but there is no difference in the font rendering in LO.
I'm stymied about this because I have used this setup previously on this and two other machines. Any ideas?
MS

I thought of that but, as I use the infinality-bundle, which fonts do I need to test this hypothesis? Or can you suggest one I can install from the official repos?
[edit] Just after posting this I remembered that LO, as noted on the wiki somewhere, suggest one install the ttf-dejavu font. After installing this font everything is now showing correctly.
@nomorewindows, Thank you very much! I feel a bit silly but I learned something from this and for that I grateful to you.

How to install Kannada font in blackberry 10OS

Hi
Can anyone tell me how to install Kannada font in blackberry 10OS??

Hello,
Are you merely looking for a font? Or do you want to interact with the device in that language? I cannot quite tell from your words. Nevertheless, refer:
Article ID: KB33755 Supported languages on BlackBerry 10
If you do not see your desired language in that KB nor on the device Settings screen, then it's not available.
Good luck!

PDF prompts for language font addon?

I have a user that is using Acrobat 9 Standard, he receives a pdf from a vendor, edits the pdf using the typewriter tool, then saves the pdf and sends it out to appropriate users inside/outside our company. Prior to making the edits, the files opens normally w/out issues (using adobe reader). After he saves it and sends it out, vendors & user are saying that they are getting prompted to install a language font add-on. I've tested myself and gets the same prompt. One user could open the file but says it opens in Korean.
I've checked the language settings and all seems fine. (set to English)
Help please?

Not directly through acrobat (or from user's laptop) but the (attached) jpg shows nothing relating to language fonts (under adobe reader). The add-on is actually Adobe Reader X Font Packs - Korean. Not sure why this font pack would be needed to view edits made through typewriter in English. And the user is no longer around today for me to varify if its showing the same when he launches this file.
