Required Fonts for iMovie 11?

I work in graphic design so usually only have a minimal set of fonts activated on my computer, so that I can activate what I need when working on customer jobs and then de-activate them later--keeps me from having hundreds of fonts active.
However, this means that when I use iMovie, I'm not sure but what some of the fonts used in the various themes are inactive. Was wondering if anyone knows of a list of fonts that iMovie uses?
Thanks in advance.

Then you talk about "these 34 iMove fonts.
What I've found is that while there are 34 fonts in the application package, only 9 of them seem to be user accessible.
I've now edited my answer.
So it appears that any fonts that iMovie uses for its default themes and trailers are within the application itself. So your practice of moving system fonts in and out shouldn't be a problem for iMovie.

    Are there required fonts for Illustrator to run properly?

    Yes, there are. There's a problem related with missing Verdana (search for layers not displaing properly). And maybe others.

  • Required fonts for Bridge labels?

    The attached screen shot explains it all. I keep my font library pared to a minimum, and I figure there is some font Bridge uses specifically for this area.

    In case anyone is interested, here's what I've discovered.
    There are four font families installed with Adobe CS2 that don't remain in the Library/Application Support/Adobe/Fonts folder. They are Courier, Myriad, Symbol, and ZWAdobeF. All are PostScript (Type1) fonts—except for ZWAdobeF, which is TrueType.
         Couri
         CouriBol
         CouriBolObl
         Courier
         CouriObl
         MyriaBol
         MyriaBolta
         Myriad
         MyriaIta
         MyriaRom
         Symbo
         Symbol
         ZWAdobeF.TTF
    Interestingly, these may be required fonts, but instead of remaining in the Requrd folder, they seem to be installed in the User font library. According to the Extensis publication Font Management in Mac OS X: Best Practices Guide (7th ed.), the font Myriad is required for CS2. Meanwhile, an Adobe forum posting by Dov Isaacs, an Adobe employee, indicates that ZWAdobeF is a special hack for Adobe Acrobat and serves a limited purpose but is best left untouched. The remaining fonts may or may not be crucial.
    I'd lost track of the source of these fonts long ago and had no idea that they belonged to my Adobe applications. Although they'd remained in my User font library, several of them (Courier and Symbol) had recently been disabled—but not Myriad or ZWAdobeF. For the time being, I've decided to move them all back into the Requrd folder where they'll be activated for all relevant Adobe applications.

  • Foreign language fonts for iMovie title pages and captions

    I would like to write title pages and captions i iMovie in the Polish language.
    Typically, characters that are specific to the Polish language are entered by using the alt key and the letter that is to be accented. This doesn't seem to work in iMovie.
    How can these special accented letters be entered in iMovie title pages and captions?

    Typically, characters that are specific to the Polish language are entered by using the alt key and the letter that is to be accented. This doesn't seem to work in iMovie.
    Did you go to system preferences/language & text/input sources and check the box for the Polish keyboard layout, and then select it in the "flag" menu at the top right of the Finder? Which key does what can be seen using Keyboard Viewer.
    Try Lucida Grande if the font does not have the necessary characters.

  • Required Fonts for Lion

    A lot of fonts are installed by Lion, for what I thank Apple but I really want to manage fonts myself and want to turn them on or off as needed (I use FontExplorer 3).
    So – which fonts are required to run OS X Lion? Which fonts can be disabled? I know for instance that one of the Japanese/Chinese fonts is used to dusplay the rating stars in iTunes. Had it all setup but now a lot of fonts came installed with Lion. Can I dsiable the same ones as in Snow Leopard?

    Keep an eye on this site: Font Basics. They have provided great font info before on both Leopard and Snow Leopard. I feel info on Lion should be there to before too long.
    What I've done meanwhile, is disabled all fonts actived with my font manager (FontCase). Then moved all fonts from the following folders to a folder on my desktop: /library/fonts and /users/home/library/fonts.(Be sure to leave /system/library/fonts alone for now!!)
    I then imported the fonts I moved to my desktop into FontCase, cleaned font caches and restarted. After restart I actved my basic sets in FontCase again, and all's been working just fine.
    Hope this helps!

  • Calculating required diskspace for iMovie 09 projects

    Can someone tell me how a good rule of thumb for calculating the relationship between iMovie project size and needed disk space for creating the final movie product? Thanks in advance

    you can take an event and "consolidate events" and that (should) allow you to move the events from that project to the other harddrive (Back-up first!). For new projects, when you import the video, import it to the new HD. I'm not sure that the project can be stored on that HD, needs to be where the iMovie application is i think, BUT, the information in the project is minimal compared to the video footage, so you will free up LOTs of space on main HD by not storing the video footage there.

  • After Effects cannot load required font!

    After installing some new fonts I get the error message "After Effects cannot load required font for the AE interface.  Please replace the font or reinstall AE."  How can I fix this?  Do I really have to reinstall AE?  Someone please tell me that there is an easier way to fix this .
    Thanks.

    This bug is fixed in the After Effects CC (12.1) update:

  • Import new font into iMovie?

    I bought a .TTF font and installed it in Fontbook. It shows up in other places (Quicktime Pro, Adobe Indesign etc) but not in the list of fonts for iMovie HD 6. Can't believe I couldn't find anything about under this entire thread. The font sits in the Users>Library>Font folder. Thanks for clues.

    You should heed the warning. Can't tell what the problem is. Might be the font somehow got corrupted.
    I would try the oft applied maintenance of deleting preferences and doing a permissions repair. To delete preferences, close iMovie and trash the file named com.apple.iMovie.plist found in User (the house icon)/Library/Preferences. Also, drag to your desk top the FontCollections file (NOT the Font Book) found in User (the house icon)/Library.
    Then do a permissions repair using the Disk Utility app found in HD/Applications/Utilities. In the left hand pane of the Disk Utility window select your hard drive icon and then click on repair permissions. Takes about 3 minutes to repair. Then relaunch iMovie and see if you still have the problem. iMovie will recreate the .plist file that you deleted, as well as the FontCollections file. After confirming that the FontCollections file has been replaced in User/Library, you can delete the one on your desk top.
    If you still have the problem, you might try clearing the troublesome font out of your system, and then reinstalling, following the directions for "Installing a font" in the Help menu. Skip trying to drag into the computer folder.
    I can't think of anything else to try right now.

  • What are the system requirements for iMovie 11

    On the product support page for iMovie, the link to the system requirements is for iLife '09, not '11 so I'm not sure if that information is correct.
    Basically I have Mac OS 10.6.8 and I want to upgrade to iMovie '11, but I do not want to update the OS as a requirement.

    One more thing. If you Mac cannot be upgraded to Mountain Lion, there is another option. You can go on Amazon or eBay and look for the iLife 11 Retail Package, which includes iMovie 11, along with all the other iLife Apps. You can install this on 10.6.3 and above. The downside is you can only upgrade it to iMovie 9.0.4 (I think). To upgrade to 9.0.8, you need at least Lion.

  • A required codec isn't available.for iMovie

    I have been unable to load AVI clips from a storage usb stick to Imovie any ideas?

    The free app MPEG Streamclip can be downloaded from the developer's site here:
    http://www.squared5.com/svideo/mpeg-streamclip-mac.html
    MPEG Streamclip is widely used in the Mac universe, and is also available for Windows. It should be able to convert your AVI files to a format suitable for iMovie, as AVI is one of Streamclip's supported import formats.
    To convert, drag the file onto MPEG Streamclip's open window (or from the menu select File > Open Files). Now choose File > Export to QuickTime. From the window that opens, for Compression choose Apple Intermediate Codec (that's iMovie's preferred editing format). Leave other options as they are. Finally, click on Make Movie (bottom right of the window), then give the export a name and location to save to (say, Desktop).
    The exported file can now be imported to an Event in iMovie (I'm assuming that you are using iMovie '08, '09 or '11).

  • How do I purchase Adboe fonts for distribution across a 5000+ user University. Licenses required?

    My University is updating its 'Visual Identity Guidelines' and I am trying to find out the proper way to go about purchasing fonts for 'official' use and distribution to staff users across a large institution.
    I see Volume Licensing for programmes but not for fonts. Can anyone advise?
    Thanks in advance

    TerriTea-
    Our Volume Licening program provides for volume licensing of Font Folio 11.1 only.  You are correct that we don't license individual fonts via this program.
    However, we would be happy to quote you on a customized volume license for any specific fonts you want.  Please respond to me directly below, indicating the total number of users, information about your institution, as well as the specific typefaces and weights you have interest in.  I will see that the proper sales people respond to your query.
    Thanks for reaching out to us,

  • Why can I no longer specify my preferred font for text which has a link attached to it?

    I use TBird to send old school, professional looking business letters with logo image header and footers. Recently, I am unable to apply my preferred font to the website link part of my footer. This seems to have become an issue after one of the more recent upgrades of TBird. Its frustrating as I feel good graphic design requires uniformity in font style/type and size. This seems no longer possible. Now when I attach a hyperlink to my website address it changes my preferred font to something that looks like Arial and locks both font and size. It looks crappy.

    <blockquote>
    The only way I know its 12 pt. is that I copy into Word and check the font size there.
    </blockquote>
    Huge error number one, and probably cause of your problem in the first place.
    <blockquote>
    I would really like to see TBird use point size for fonts.
    </blockquote>
    Thunderbird uses HTML, HTML is expressed in pixels.
    <blockquote>
    In terms of not having Papyrus on you Linux box, I suppose that's you're choice.
    </blockquote>
    Licensing actually, not choice. The font is licensed and distributed by Microsoft. See http://www.microsoft.com/typography/fonts/font.aspx?FMID=1113 for a list of products your recipient can install to get the font.
    <blockquote>
    In my outgoing email subject line I always specify that my reply is best viewed in HTML, full screen.
    </blockquote>
    HTML is the default for almost all mail so that does appear to be overkill. Full screen. Personally I would be just as likely to not read mail that required full screen. Mail gets about half a screen here.
    <blockquote>
    Most systems will automatically substitute fonts for ones not on that system, at least in Apple and PC systems. </blockquote>
    Papurus actually has a higher chance of being present on a Mac system than a windows one as Apple have distributed it with OSX since 2003.
    <blockquote>
    Anyway all of that is a little off topic. I wanted help with why TBird intermittently messes with font size and style when I cut and pasting email responses to people.
    </blockquote>
    As I said at the beginning. Do not use word. Word first converts to RTF then to HTML (All done internally) The resulting HTML is extremely complex and to put it bluntly pastes as a whole page from which Thunderbird must extract only the relevant parts. (inside the body tag) The end result is the program ends up confused about what goes where.
    <blockquote>
    And, if there is some reason why sometimes, again I stress sometimes, it will not let me use the font of my choice for text that has a hyperlink attached to it.
    </blockquote>
    If your pasting from Word the most obvious thing will be that the hyperlinked text will have it's own font tags another reason I suggest you use the program your in.
    * If you want it on paper use a word processor. It is what they are designed for
    * If you want it in email use the email program to actually write your mail.
    * If you want to guarantee the look on delivery send PDF attachments.

  • Which MacBook Pro for imovie?

    I've had my 13 inch MacBook for over 7 years and the old girl won't die, but has been running slow with all the gopro and other HD video footage I edit for a long time.
    I only use my laptop for imovie video editing and storage of photos on iPhoto (no editing). My question is which which model should I buy? I'm happy with the 13 inch size, but also happy to go to 15 inch should the specs warrant it.  I'm also considering Final Cut Pro x in the future as I'm starting to look for more than imovie has to offer.
    Any suggestions or up specs required?
    Thanks,
    Glen

    Hi Glen,
    The obvious: 15" has conisderably more screen realestate to work with. It also has considerably more processing power than the 13" with a quad core i7 vs a dual core i5. Will the 13" work for now? Sure, but given that you keep your MBP for such a long time, the large speed difference is a huge factor to consider; it's useful life should be at least a year or two beyond the 13", and all the while you'll be enjoying the faster speed. You might also want to consider upgrading to 16GB of RAM. While that's a lot for now, in the future, as OSs and apps become more and more RAM hungry . . . . I think you can tell which one I'd recommend.
