Text in certain font, once there, is now gone.

I need help!
I created a design concept, with paragraph styles, last week using CS4 and had no trouble at all.
I opened the file today and every paragraph that used the font Hoefler Text Black has disappeared.
The text is still there and the hidden characters of the spaces are still visible (as you can see in the screen shot I attached). When I change the paragraph's style to another font, the text reappears.
The other variations of Hoefler Text also still work. I can't figure out why this one font has stopped working.
My thanks in advance,
Justin

If those are spaces in that screen shot, that's some pretty strange text, and why is the pilcrow in the middle of the last line?
Does the font work in a new doc? Does it clear up if you export that documetn to .inx, open that and save as a new .indd?
How about if you delete all Adobefnt**.lst files where ** is a number?

  • Pasting text in certain fonts does not work in Titles

    Hi..
    Creating a simple title in Tamil language. Typed something in Google transliteration and copied the text. When pasting it in Final Cut Pro X, nothing is pasted. There is not even an error or warning message It just does not paste. Font chosen is Inaimathi which works fine in TextEdit or OpenOffice.
    Found a tip elsewhere that we could paste the text in TextEdit first, and then copy the phrase from there to FCP, to avoid encoding problems. Tried that too, but no use.
    For the same font, typing in English works fine. Any help much appreciated..

    This seems to have something to do with how these characters were created in the first place.
    Copying and pasting the tamil word from your post above did not work. However, looking for these characters in the Character Viewer allowed me to enter them into a TextEdit document; and copying and pasting those into FCP X worked perfectly.
    So how were these characters entered in the first place?

    You may want to try force closing all open apps and resetting the device as an initial troubleshooting step. Take a look at the articles below for more information.

  • I have created an editable PDF via Adobe Indesign. When I open the PDF in Adobe Acrobat Pro DC, is there a way to specify a font style? Or is there a way in InDesign to make sure when someone type in that text field it is a certain font?

    I need to make sure the text that is entered is a certain font to keep it continuous with the rest of the document. Thank you!

    To go into form editing mode, select "Prepare Form" in the right hand pane. You'll then get a toolbar along the top that contains the various form-related tools. The first thing to do is add a temporary button. You'll use this to determine the name of the font for use with the script as well as place the script that will change the font properties of the text fields. So create a button anywhere, double-click it to bring up the field properties dialog, and on the Actions tab add a JavaScript action to the Mouse Up event that is:
    // Mouse Up script for temporary button
    app.alert(event.target.textFont);
    On the Appearance tab, select the font that you want to use for the text fields. Once you've done that, close form editing mode and click the button. It will display a popup that will list the font name. This may be different than the name that appeared in the dropdown on the appearance tab, so write it down. For example, when I chose "Minion Pro" from the dropdown, the popup showed "MinionPro-Regular".
    The next step is to replace that Mouse Up script with the following:
    // Mouse Up script for temporary button
    // Change the font and font size for all text field in this document
    for (var i = 0; i < numFields; i++) {
        var f = getField(getNthFieldName(i));
        if (f.type === "text") {
            f.textFont = "MinionPro-Regular";
            f.textSize = 9;
    Replace "MinionPro-Regular" with the font name that you wrote down before and set the font size to whatever you want. Use 0 to specify a font size of "Auto".
    This script will change the font of all text fields to whatever you specify. When you've confirmed that the text fields are set up as you want, you can go ahead and delete or hide the button. If you think you'll be doing a lot of forms work, you can create custom tools in Acrobat to speed up this process, but this should get you started. InDesign won't let you specify a lot of field properties and actions, so you have to work this way, and using automation scripts is an accessible way to significantly speed up the process and avoid mistakes.

  • Printing problem when PDF is sent to the printer with certain fonts - missing text

    I'm running into a printing problem when PDFs containing certain characters of the Calibri font are used.  The text in large sections of the PDF is missing on the paper version, but the text is there on the screen.  It's also happened when the PDFs we created were e-mailed out to a client and printed on their printer.  The problem is not present when printing directly from the programs (Microsoft Word, Excel, Visio, etc.).  I've been trying to get tech support from Adobe on this, but every time I call they apologize and say they will call back in 4-6 hours with an answer.  Same result each time, no call back.  If anyone from Adobe is listening, it's case number 184891587.  The font appears as an embedded subset when I look at the document properties.  Sometimes deleting one or two Characters allows for larger text blocks to be printed - i.e. removing a long dash in bold from the heading of a paragraph makes the paragraph reappear when printed to paper from PDF.  In all cases the PDF appears correct on the screen.  Printing as an image allows the text to appear, but the image quality isn't acceptable for small text, even at the 600 dpi setting on the printer.  If the PDF is sent out by e-mail, we do not have control over the end-user's printer setup anyway, so we need this to work in all cases.  
    The setup/process I'm using is as follows:
    Windows 7 Professional SP1 64-Bit
    Microsoft Office 2013 - problem is present when printing documents from Word, Excel or Visio.  Even other variations on documents. 
    I've tried Acrobat versions 11.0.0 to 11.0.5 as well as Acrobat Pro 11.0.0 and 11.0.1.  Same Result
    Printing to Adobe PDF as the printer, from the third party application
    Printing to a Xerox printer from PDF using Acrobat - Text missing
    Client prints to Konica printer - Text missing
    I print to the wide-format Ricoh (which also does 11x17) and the text is present. 
    Is there something I'm missing?  Is the entire font not getting embedded into the PDF file?  I noticed that rolling back to a much older version of the Calibri font (1.02 compared to 5.72) makes the problem mostly go away, but it's not completely gone.  Is it possible the font is too large to be completely embedded?  Where can I go from here? 

    Success!  At least for now.  It looks like my problem was fixed with Adobe's most recent update, 11.0.06.  From the release notes:
    PDF creation
    Added support for Lotus Notes 9.
    Added support for WebCapture in IE 11.
    Added support for conversions from AutoCAD 2013.
    3652540 A blank pdf is created for files having hidden visual style.
    3601108 Flow Chart converts as a multicolored square.
    3654345 Word documents missing parts of images in conversion to PDF.

    3651931 Chrome Only: Few web pages when converted to pdf from Chrome plugin doesn’t show up the Save As dialog.
    3597910 EPM Mode On: Web capture is not working on Windows 8-32 bit when cache folder is missing.
    3610644 Firefox 23.0: With Firefox version 23.0 (latest), the WebCapture icon shows up very dim as if it is disabled.
    3650244 ODA falis to convert DWG files to PDF for large files.
    I don't know if that's definately what solved the problem, but it sure sounds similar and this is the update that made the printing problem go away.  We can't get the PDFs to fail at this point with our printers, even with Calibri 5.72.  I'll come back to thread if we have printing problems at the end-user locations. 

  • Flash Text not displaying certain fonts

    I am trying to use Flash text for some headings, but after an
    hour of pulling my hair out I've just realised it will only display
    certain fonts, such as Helvetica etc.
    I added the font I want to use to my font list but it still

    Any ideas? Thansk.

    Is your text in a dynamic text box, or static text box in
    flash?
    I don't think the issue concerns the "true-type" or not
    "true-type" font.
    In Flash, when text is part of a dynamic text box (which I
    assume is the case in your situation),
    then the font works just like in an html page:
    if the font is installed on the computer it will show, if
    not, it won't. The way around this, is to
    embed the font data in the authoring flash file, and link it
    to the dynamic text box, via actionScript.
    So if you cannot work on the authoring Flash file with Flash
    MX or Flash8, and if indeed we're
    talking about a dynamic text box, your only option is to use
    a web-safe font.

  • After "cleaning up" my fonts, all text in certain websites is bold. Please help.

    About a week ago, I deleted every font in font book that had a yellow circle (this is a problematic font) warning next to it, thinking that it would help stabilize Word. Now all the text on certain websites, e.g. https://www.lexisnexis.com/start/signin?service=lexis&contractURL=https%3a%2f%2f w3.lexis.com%2fresearch2%2fauthResource.do%3f_m%3d04e7cec9cf984a4030f980679eaa70 6b&key=_c4BE55E57-F002-DA05-DE3F-49B4F056C0EF_kD6B95D8A-DB53-3E64-E981-13ED11BB5 374&event=form, that should be plain shows up bolded. Italicized text does not have this problem. I have only found one other website on which I have this problem (some blog), the problem is that I use the website above all the time.
    Chrome, Firefox, Safari, all the same.

  • Cannot Select Text That Use Certain Fonts

    I have some PDF files where I cannot select the text because they use certain fonts (monotxt for example) when I change the font to Arial and recreate the PDF, then I can select the fonts for copy and paste. My question is how to add fonts that Adobe can recognize for selection.

    The fonts are invisible to selection. I cannot select them at all. I do have the license for these fonts. I did some further tests and found that it only happens when I make a PDF from my AutoCAD application and use the monotxt font type. I guess it could be a problem with the AutoCAD application and the creation of the PDF and not the Adobe Reader.

  • Font in embedded swf now not showing in ie6

    Hi There,
    We've noticed that a .swf which was recently updated using CS5 no longer displays the font in ie6 - it was originally created several years ago in CS3 so we're wondering if something has changed with regard to the way Flash embeds fonts?
    This tutorial looks fairly extreme for something so simple: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flash/quickstart/embedding_fonts.html
    The font is the Microsoft font Tahoma and we've updated our test machine to the latest version of Flash - but still no joy.
    When I click various text in the Flash file, they're all set to the following in the properties panel:
    - Classic Text
    - Static Text
    Is there a simple way to embed fonts or do you now have to create a font symbol and follow all the steps described in the above link?
    Sorry, have just never noticed this before.
    Any help or pointers in the right direction would be much appreciated.
    Cheers

    It should work just fine in IE6. You might want to make sure you don't target any version of flash higher than you absolutely need to. I'm not sure how extensively supported IE6 is with Adobe any longer.
    If you're not using any dynamic text and it's literally all static then you don't need to embed the font at all. Flash does that for you automatically on static text fields. The user (as kglad said) does not need to have the font installed. The text is baked into flash as vector outlines.

  • [solved] Wrong display of fonts (all square boxes now)

    Hi!
    I tried Infinality  (https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Fo … Infinality) for font-hinting a few days / weeks ago. Everything worked fine until I recently did - like every day - a
    pacman -Syu
    since that update my Fonts are all Squares now. Only the real standard fonts (e.g. Bitstream Vera Sans) are displayed correctly now.
    Uploaded with ImageShack.us also tried already a
    # pacman -S --asdeps freetype2 libxft cairo fontconfig
    and I refreshed my font cache via
    $ fc-cache -vf
    I even followed the described command
    pango-querymodules > '/etc/pango/pango.modules'
    in https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=51316.
    But none of the above mentioned worked. Would someone please be so kind and help me out?
    UPDATE: Meanwhile I tried a
    # pacman -Rscn gnome
    and reinstalled gnome & gnome-extra. But this doesn't work either, fonts like 'Verdana' aren't displayed correctly.
    UPDATE 2: After deleting my manual installed Windows 7 fonts and reloading the cache everything works fine now. I don't know why, but it works

    I fixed this by uninstalling gnome, all config files for pkg's removed, their dependencies, and all packages that depend on those - with the following command
    pacman -Rscn gnome
    This removed A LOT of packages.  Then I had to reinstall gnome and my fonts were once again readable. 
    Before anyone tells me how stupid I was for doing that, or how there may have been a simpler theoritical solution - realize that I use my computer for work daily.  I had made a few posts and wasn't getting the help I needed so I had to figure something out.  I tried removing gnome and all it's packages without the '-n' option (config files), but that didn't work.  So I reloaded gnome, then retried with the '-n' option and that did work.
    I googled this and apparently many other people had this problem with gnome (not Arch-specific), but nobody gave any workable solutions to any of them either.  Hopefully someone smarter than me can comment on the true cause of this, and maybe deduce a better solution - as I am sure some other poor sap will run into the same problem and surely come across this thread.
    I appreciate everyone's input on this, and hopefully someone will chime in here with a much simpler solution that wont cause as much trouble as it did for me.
    cheers.
