Remote fonts loaded in font book.

Somehow somebody loaded fonts over the network on my workstation.
When launching font book I get a spinning pinwheel and messages saying connection could not be found... for each font it is trying to activate.
The machine that has the font on it is off/sleeping.
How do I identify which fonts reside on that remote machine and delete them WITHOUT jacking up all local fonts.

I don't know. I stripped everything out and reloaded all fonts-sets-library's.
NOW the machine that Fontbook is attempting to access is dead and font book is not responging.
Where are the font book libraries-preferences-plists so I can dispose of them and start fresh?

  • Changing Font Size in Address Book 6.1

    This seems like such a basic question to ask but I can't figure it out: How can I change the font size in Addres Book 6.1? There no longer seems to be a way to do this in Address Book Preferences.

    Address Book offers three choices: small, medium and large!

  • How do I get fonts in my font book to a place where I can use them?

    I have some Hebrew fonts in my font book but I don't know how to make them useable. I don't even know how to ask 'help' how to get them out. Meanwhile the Japanese fonts and the Chinese fonts are readily available.

    I have a similar problem except I can't use any other fonts other than roman characters- all I want is to type in simplified chinese.
    As with any other language, and just explained above for Hebrew, you go to system prefs/international/input menu and check the box for the simplified chinese input method you want to use, plus the box for Show Input Menu in Finder. Then in the "flag" menu at the top right of the Finder you select Chinese and type.
    For full info on the various SC IM's, see the HELP in OS X or this site:

    If you have any questions, just ask again.

  • Windows True Type font fine in Font Book but not in some apps

    I got a Windows True Type font from a guy having some issues with it when printing website on Windows XP and I thought I'd try the font on Mac OS X 10.4.4.
    It imports fine into Font Book and previews fine. When I opened up TextEdit the font can be seen in the list of fonts, but when one selects it changes to the Monaco font instead of the "real" font seen in Font Book.
    In Word the font don't show up at all but in Photoshop it seems to work fine.
    The font is validated fine according to Font Book.
    How come it behaves like this?

    Thanks for your reply.
    "OCR-A BT" is the name of the font.
    The origin I don't know about. I just got it from a guy I barely know.
    I know there can be various problems with fonts. Just thought it was interesting that Font Book validated and showed it fine, but still it didn't seem to be all healthy since it doesn't work in all app.

  • Font Loading in Oracle 11g javavm

    Hello,
    I want to write a java source in Oracle 11g that creates an image containing texts.
    I tried to create a java class from sqlplus using "create or replace and resolve java source" .....
    that contains ..
    "Font fnt = new Font("Courier",Font.PLAIN,14);"
    and,
    "g.setFont(fnt);".
    The source is compiled and resolved succesfully, however, when I call the corresponding PL/SQL function, I find the following error messages...
    SQL Error: ORA-29532: Java call terminated by uncaught Java exception: java.lang.Error: Probable fatal error:No fonts found.

    The code works fine in Oracle 10g R2. The font.properties is found at $ORACLE_HOME/javavm/lib/ojvmfonts directory.
    The Oracle 11g does not have the ojvmfonts directory in its javavm.
    How can I load fonts in Oracle 11g Java VM?
    Can anybody help me?

    Hello,
    It could be nice that your script spool a log.
    By that way, you could more easily catch the error and the detail of the rows rejected.

  • Purchasing and Licensing Fonts for use in Book (Garamond Pro)

    I'm planning to design a book in InDesign and I'd like to use Adobe's Garamond with all of its special extras (titling capitals, small caps, italic alternates etc.)
    I was about to buy the font package at myfonts.com, then sign up for InDesign, but I'm wondering if this font is already included in InDesign and, if so, is it complete?
    Also, if I use the Creative Cloud can I use any fonts in it that I've already purchased licenses for?
    Finally, do I need a special license for a printed book or is that included in the desktop license?

    Hi Badmonkeyart,
    Please confirm the version name of InDesign.
    However, for CS6 you can refer the following page which having the detailed information about default fonts included.
    Font related documentation for Creative Suite 6
    Hope this helps.

  • How to find the location of a particular font in the framemaker book?

    Hi All,
    please help me in finding the location of a particular type of font in the framemaker book. I was using the following procedure to find out earlier:
    Find > Character Format > (set the character format) > Search.
    Now I am unable to locate a particular type of font using the mentioned procedure.
    Please help me out.
    Thanks in adnavce,
    Mindevil

    This assumes that the font instance being searched for is an override:
    Click in some text in one of the book files.
    Edit > Find/Change
    [ Character Format ...]
    This pops up a Character Format dialog.
    Assuming you are on Windows:
    [Ctrl]+[Shift]+[F8] to set everything to As-Is/blank.
    In Family:, select the font being sought. [Set]
    Back in the Find dialog...
    Look in: <*> Book
    [Find]
    If the font instance is part of a Paragraph Format or Character Format, you can search by Para Tag name or Char Tag name (which is yet another reason why overrides are a problem).
    Or you can save out all the book files as MIF and search with a plaintext editor, but that requires a nominal knowledge of MIF.
    I might add that steps 1-3 above are covered in FM7.1 Help (and presumably the printed manual back then), but are absent for FM9, and I'm guessing that they never returned in later versions either.

  • Acrobat X Pro - Loading System Fonts

    I installed the software this morning and it has been "loading system fonts" for hours. I got this message when I tried to edit document text... I've tried to restart the system twice and it hasn't worked. Has anyone else run into this? How do I fix it? Does it really take this long to load my fonts?
    Thanks

    What is your operating system?

  • [SOLVED] "Loading console font" fails at boot

    Hello everyone,
    At each boot, the line where it loads the console font fails. The font configured in rc.conf is "161", it's the one by default on installation.
    /var/log/boot
    Loading Console Font: 161 ^[[231G [BUSY] ^[[231G [FAIL]
    It's a fresh install done today.
    Any idea why it would fail that?
    Last edited by blno (2012-01-06 21:18:47)

    Navigate to /usr/share/kbd/consolefonts, pick the font, test it by issuing
    setfont font-name.gz
    -- and if everything works OK, add it to rc.conf and rebuild your initramfs.
    Edit (because I'm extremely short-minded): while adding the font to the rc.conf file, do so without any extensions, eg. Uni2-Fixed16. And 2: before you rebuild your initramfs, it's wise to add "consolefont" to HOOKS in mkinitcpio.conf. It's not obligatory, but this way the new font will become active at the earliest boot stage.

    Regards

    Can't offer you much help but can only mention how bad the font technology is in this respect. In my opinion the font usage interfaces available nowadays  are the most primitive and undeveloped than any other software solutions.
    Initially, decades ago, the primary goal of the font managers was system performance. In the early desktop computers even a few dozen fonts would slow down considerably the system performance. Nowadays the computers are so much faster that I can have thousands of fonts installed without any problem. So, the major advantage of font managers is lost and I have to use them for organization purposes only. However because they are external means to a problem that needs to be solved internally on a system and program level, they are very inefficient. You have to organize your fonts externally and load or unload with another program all the time in order to have manageable font menu. However this doesn't affect the system fonts and many program fonts which are a number large enough to clutter and interfere with any external arrangement. Basically a font manager allows you to organize your fonts externally where you can choose which fonts you want or don't want to use, then the font manager  automates the installing and uninstalling of these fonts in the system fonts folder and thus limits the number of fonts that appear in the font menus. Font managers don't have access to and can't sort the font menu in anyway.
    Ideally, this problem should be solved on a system level. The perfect interface I imagine would be user created sub-folders in the system Fonts folder where a font or its alias can be put and this would be the way the fonts should appear in the Fonts panels and menus of the programs with collapsible sub-menus.

  • Dynamic Fonts loading in CS4 vs CS3. What has changed?!

    Hi there,
    I've had BIG troubles loading dynamic fonts in CS4. Well I had a whole library written in AS3 for CS3 which works just fine. But the whole thing doesn't work anymore in CS4. The textfields are empty although the fonts are loaded and registered via Font.registerFont. So the loading process actually worked. But the text just doesn't appear anymore.
    In CS3 it works, in CS4 id doesn't work, with exactly the same FLA and AS files.
    The Font files were exported with CS3. Maybe there's the problem? There is another font-file I had to export with flex (due to the character limitations in the flash IDE), that actually does work(!)
    So what has changed between CS3 and CS4? There must be some reason why things don't work anymore like they did before.
    If someone is interested in the source... it's quite a lot just to get a font loaded.

    just out of curiosity -- did you update all of the applications?

  • Load TTF font ???

    hi,
    i'am trying to distribute with my application an external font.it's loading correctly but nothing appear on screen :/
    JLabel label = new JLabel("Hello World");
    FileInputStream stream = new FileInputStream("c:\\LED.ttf");
    Font f = Font.createFont(Font.TRUETYPE_FONT,stream);
    label.setFont(f);
    does it's possible to set a font that is not in normal system path ?
    vincent.

    I once did it like that for a special font used via a label. It works for both file system and jar files:
    public class CSpecialFontLabel extends JLabel {
         private static final String URL_FONT = "appl/gui/font/ariblk.ttf";
         private static Font m_font;
         public CSpecialFontLabel(int style, int size) {
              loadFont();
                  setFont(m_font.deriveFont(style, size));
          * Draws the version info.
         public void paint(Graphics g) {
              Graphics2D g2d = (Graphics2D) g;
              g2d.setRenderingHint(
                   RenderingHints.KEY_ANTIALIASING,
                   RenderingHints.VALUE_ANTIALIAS_ON);
              super.paint(g);
          * Loads the font for the version info
         private void loadFont() {
              if(m_font == null) {
                try {
                        InputStream is = this.getClass().getClassLoader().getResourceAsStream(URL_FONT);
                        m_font = Font.createFont(Font.TRUETYPE_FONT, is);
                        is.close();
                   } catch (Exception e) {
                        // loading font failed -> use std. Font
                          m_font = new Font("Arial", Font.ITALIC | Font.BOLD, 60);
    }

  • Font load order

    I have a situation where Arial Narrow (TT)v 1.15 and Arial Narrow OTTT v 2.35 are installed in the library/fonts folder. when I open a doc on my 10.5x mac(created elsewhere on a mac) that uses the older version in ID3 , it will not even see the older TT, but wants to substitute the 2.35. How can I force ID to recognize two versions of this font or at least to use the older one when called for?I have to swap this file back and forth several times during a production cycle and it's a gib pain in the butt. There are about five fonts like this in the document.
    If there's an article about font loading order and/or recognition, I'd love to read it. I coudn't find one.

    [edited to fix font display]

    Very simply, you can't have two versions of the same font, with
    identical internal font names, installed on the same system or in use
    at the same time.
    A font manager could activate your choice of sets of fonts, then
    de-activate them when done. This is the equivalent of installing and
    un-installing automatically.
    I don't know how it works on a Mac (for operating system specific
    questions, you'd be better off in an operating system forum), but
    under Windows, the installed font takes precedence (it doesn't allow
    multiple fonts with the same font name to be installed in the first
    place); if not installed, the first one opened dynamically is the one
    used - BUT it can get confused. Type 1 and Truetype fonts aren't
    always handled the same way, just to confuse things further.
