Telugu - Use font in Word and InDesign

For work purposes, I have to create a bilingual brochure (English - Telugu) but I'm having huge problems with finding a font that works... It needs to be usable in both Word and InDesign and also able to combine Telugu with English. Normally we use Frutiger and Meta, so any font that suits these styles would be great. Hopefully you can help me out, your help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks for reading my question!

If you're using CS4 with the hidden "World-Ready Composer" functionality (read this article), you might be able to get Telugu to render correctly. Otherwise, you're probably out of luck. Telugu requires support for rendering methods that aren't in any other version of InDesign, so I doubt that your probem is really to be found in the fonts, as you suspect.
In languages that InDesign doesn't support, I sometimes have success back-converting to ancient pre-Unicode fonts, but I've never done so with Telugu, so I can't say for sure that such a solution would work for you.

Matching styles between Word and InDesign?

In Microsoft Word, can you create new style names (both character AND paragraph) same as you can in InDesign? and if those names match those in an InDesign template you are flowing them into, will the text come in STYLED like they are set up in InDesign?

Anne-Marie Concepcion has produced a comprehensive tutorial on using Word and InDesign together. I would highly recommend anyone using these two applications to have a look at it:

Shared Canon MP500 print problem using 10.5.4 and InDesign

Here's a wierd one!
I am using a brand new Mac Pro running 10.5.4, on a network connected to a G5 PowerMac 1.6 Ghz running 10.4.11. The Powermac has a Canon MP500 inkjet printer attached.
So when I print from the Mac Pro I use the shared printer. I am trying to print a landscape A4 document direct from Indesign (CS3 ver 5) - but using the shared printer I can not get it to print on the paper the right way round! It works perfectly from word or preview.
So I thought it might be Indesign so I plugged the printer directly to the Mac Pro and it works fine. So is there perhaps an issue with shared printing on leopard?
Any thoughts would be good!

I think you may find that this is more of a CS3 issue, rather than a Leopard printing sharing issue - you said yourself that Word and Preview are okay.
We've had issues with our Canon printers with Fiery print controllers and landscape printing. We found that landscape documents would print the first page fine and the following pages in Portrait. Checking the Adobe forums we saw others having the same issue and a workaround that has worked for us to date.
In the ID print dialog, select Setup and change the Paper Setup to 'Defined by Driver'. Then select the Page Setup tab on the bottom of the print dialog and select the Canon printer and Landscape orientation. Okay this and then try printing...

What does Mac or apple use for microsoft word and excel?

What do I need to buy or download to get Microsoft word and excel and PowerPoint ?

Microsoft makes an Apple version of Office here:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/H2437LL/A/microsoft-office-for-mac-home-and-st udent-2011-family-pack
In my humble opinion, Apple's product is better - and completely compatible with Office. It is also about 1/2 as expensive:

What are the ideal specs for professional graphic designer using CS5 illustrator, photoshop and indesign?g

What are the ideal Mac Pro specs for a professional graphic designer using CS5 Premium- using mostly InDesign, Illustrator and PhotoShop?

24GB RAM
SSD for boot drive
GHz, but not necessarily dual. Apple doesn't sell dual 3.33s.
A single 3.33 6-core should do fine and "sweet spot" (when looking, there is "4-core" build to order..,. and like everything else on the Store, why in heavens they didn't be more accurate and clear and say "single socket" and then have "dual processor configurations" 0 I guess the writers don't understand or know workstations or jargon? I say that 'cause some have trouble even finding the 6-core 3.33 choice ($1200 over stock 2.8 4-core).
W3680 though can be found on Buy.com for $620 (was $589 at earlier date) and people are known to then sell the stock cpu $300 making it even more attractive and save $600-900 that way rather easily. Or not.
But yes, I would send you to MPG.com site as well and read through what is on there.

Font Book is selecting random fonts in word and pages

When I try to click a font for example, Times, it changes to a completely random one in pages or word. I downloaded new fonts but now i cannot change it back. Please help!

Hi Fitzy564! Welcome to the AppleWorks forum, a forum dedicated to the application AppleWorks. Your question would be better answered in Pages forum or MacOs 10.5 forum on this site. It would also help if you would describe the problem in more detail, like when did this start, have you done some maintenance late on the computer, new installed third applications, what does really happen when you choose a font etc. .

Different font between Word and Help file

Hi,
I have a Word file in Arial 10, and the help file created
with RH (WinHelp 4) appears in Times New Roman 9 (or so). What is
wrong ?
Thanks for your help,
Sorrindo

Someone else reported just a couple of days ago that the
patch had not worked for them and cited another Microsoft patch as
causing the problem. Search back and see if removing that patch
fixes things. If it does, check with your IT people they are happy
to remove the patch.
Post back if stuck.

Reinstalling OSX10.4 and Indesign looses MathType fonts

I have been using MathType to create formulas. First I copy from MathType into Illustrator, then proceed to copy from illustrator and paste into Indesign. This procedure has worked well, until I needed to reinstall my OS system. After reinstalling OS10.4, my Indesign docs have replaced some fonts with boxes. I have reinstalled CS3 and MathType 6.0 with no solution to this problem. I still get boxes for certain fonts (like MT extra). I do not know how to fix this, any light on this problem would be greatly appreciated. I have several hundred pages of documents that have been affected in this bad way.

Yes, you just drag them where you want them. But from your described work path, you actually want the fonts to be available in MathType, in Illustrator, AND in Indesign, so I wouldn't put them in the Indesign folder -- that makes them only available to Indesign. MathType is a real bear for fonts, because it's version of Symbol and Adobe's version of Symbol don't get along, which has been a pain-in-the-tush for me. I suspect the root cause is that MathType mostly is interested in working smoothly with Microsoft Word, and Indesign is a lesser concern, and you know Microsoft is going to use their own proprietary version of the Symbol font. (The problem characters are the large "fences" for putting brackets and parens around equations, and some unusual Greek characters like the upside-down capital Delta. These often show up onscreen but don't print.)
What I would do is after you reinstall OSX 10.4, reinstall the MathType fonts, particularly Symbol and MT Extra. Be aware that the CS4 applications keep their own version of Symbol that they rely on hidden in an Adobe folder, and I've found that it you remove it and replace it with the MathType one, horrible things can happen.
For a font manager, I use FontExplorer from Linotype, which is a freebie and works very well. It doesn't "auto-activate" fonts in CS4, but you do get a list of missing fonts when you open a document, and you can toggle over to Font Explorer and open them. If you've created font groups by project, you can turn them on with one click. When you return to your CS4 app, it'll work.
FontExplorer also has several nice utilities -- one that strips the System folder of all fonts not installed by OSX, so you can move spurious fonts from Microsoft and various other programs to Font Explorer's folders, which makes it easy to turn them off when you don't want them, and keep your font menus from being three miles long. And another utility that deletes font "caches" in applications, which you'll want to do after you've messed about with the various forms of Symbol and MT Extra, so that your CS4 applications don't remember a version of the font that's no longer there.

Word to indesign using xslt

Hi All,
I have copyedited word document and it was styled.
Eg:
Word Styles Name
"Chapter Title", "Chapter Sub Title", "Para", "Table Caption", "Box", " Para Indent" etc...
InDesign Paragraph Styles:
"CT", "CS", "Body", "TC", "BX", "Body Ind" etc...
How do i create a XSLT using word and indesign style Mapping.
Please suggest me.
Hurix

Some more detail would help. I'm guessing you need to do this beacuse you are using some sort of XML workflow? If you are not, then you can simply show the import options when placing a word file and map the styles there.

Printing problem with Epson R290 Illustrator and inDesign

I am running CS2 on Leopard and have recently purchased an Epson R290. The first time I used it with Illustrator and InDesign it worked fine but now whenever I print anything it prints a tiny version (about a sixth of the real size) of the design in the top left corner of the page. It does this both with new documents and old ones that used to print ok.

Since I posted the message about this problem I have discovered that it can be worked around by choosing a higher quality print. ie if you choose plain paper when printing from Illustrator or InDesign the printer prints a reduced size image but if you choose Ink jet mat or glossy the print comes out fine. I don't have this problem with Photoshop but that may be that I always print high quality from that application. I don't use Appleworks Draw so don't know whether this solves the problem for that application but iWork documents print ok.

I like to use collective fonts as microsoft word let me in the option fonts/collections but in InDesign CC only got favorites, why is this so limited, i like order and group fonts similar to work more selective and don't see hundreds of fonts. Please Desi

I got created a fonts collections in fonts catalog.app and i can see them in collections in the program microsoft word, unfortunately in InDesign CC is not posible, only got all the list of fonts available in the computer, the option to reduce the view of fonts is favorites or restrict by part of the name or type. I believe this feature most by included as default in InDesign CC. Manage fonts collection is a pretty good option to view big differents type of fonts selected together. even the smart collection are not visibles.

InDesign users use normally paragraph styles and character style, no need to sort out font collections. only when you set up the styles.
NEVER work without styles, don't us style overrides.
But you can type in any part of the font name and you get all fonts with this expression in the name, not necessary the first letters.

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.

I am pulling my hair out! I am using adobe indesign and just want to make a text box 'autofit text' as I change fonts a lot and want the font to automatically re-size as I change it. help help help please - I have latest version of indesign - thanks

I am pulling my hair out! I am using adobe indesign and just want to make a text box 'autofit text' as I change fonts a lot and want the font to automatically re-size as I change it.
Is it not possible to create a text box, fill it with dynamic (data driven) text, but make the font size either scale up or down automatically, so that the entire text box is filled? This is a feature in PrintShop Mail Pro called COPY FIT. but no such feature in Indesign??
help help help please - I have latest version of indesign - thanks, DJ

lol... it seems to work, but I have another huge problem!
Apparently .CSV files cannot contain page breaks in the data! The data I am trying to merge is a 'letter', with paragraphs, line breaks, etc.,
But, after data merging, it ignores page breaks and only merges the first paragraph of each letter. (sigh)
Solution? Hopefully, an EASY solution. lol as we have thousands of records.
Is there a third party indesign plugin that will allow .xml, or .xls data merge import??
Thx,
DJ

Acrobat 9 and Indesign Std 5 Frutiger TT Font Problems

I have several Acrobat 9 users with the Frutiger TT Fonts installed and working fine
I have two Acrobat 9 and Indesign 5 std users with Frutiger TT Fonts installed and they won't work most of the time when doing the following...
They are converting Word 2003 into PDF with Acrobat but where the Frutiger Font is used it leaves out words or sometimes paragraphs.
Any other font is OK just Frutiger that has the problem and only on PC's that have Indesign installed.
All other PC's that only have Acrobat 9 installed will convert the Word doc to PDF using the Frutiger Font.
Naturally I have Uninstalled and reinstalled all products in several different ways to overcome this issue.
In one case I uninstalled Acrobat 9 and the Frutiger Fonts. Reinstalled both and all appeared to work fine for a whole day.
The PC was turned off at the end of the day and when turned back on for use the next day the problem had returned.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers

Hi Rave,
I have not tried creating another user Account but I have since uninstalled the whole CS Suite (used CC cleaner and manually going through all the native prefs and deleting them etc). Afterwhich, I did a fresh install and both softwares, including PS, Br and Ai, have been working flawlessly for weeks now.
cheers

Copy and paste from word to InDesign - foreign characters

Hello,
I have a Word file using foreign typefaces, Chinese, Korean etc. I have the fonts on my machine because the word document shows them OK..but, if I try to copy and paste the text into InDesign, those characters either don't show at all, or you just get the pink color with the little gray squares...Does anyone out there have any tips for how to handle this type of situation.
Thanks!!
babs

Ooooh, okay. I retract my finger-waggling cautionary statement.
It could be one of a number of different things. I almost always place instead of copy/paste, but I don't have any difficulty copying & pasting complex script text of any sort in any of my various versions and platforms. I'd figure that there are two different possible routes - either there's something about the styling or clipboard that is doing this (meaning that it could be unpacked exactly the same way as any font drop, no complex-script knowledge necessary) or there's something about the non-Latin text itself that is causing the problem. Take a look at the clipboard settings (Edit -> Preferences -> Clipboard Handling) to see if changing those settings resolves the issue, by e.g. changing the settings to raw text.
If that doesn't work, I'd suggest posting a lot more detail. Platform, versions of Word and Indy, the particular fonts that are failing, a description of how styles are set up in the current Word and Indy docs, perhaps a sample of the Word and Indy docs zipped up and made available for testing (e.g. if I can successfully copy/paste into the doc when your user can't, then there's something wrong with the user's install), and so on. Without that kind of information, the best I can do is take random guesses.
