This is interesting..fonts showing properly when NOT activated

Version 10.0.0.70 of InDesign.
If I open a clients CC file I get no warning that the fonts are not active and they display properly.
While this can certainly be useful if the fonts are not provided it's also potentially dangerous.
I can package the file with out the fonts being packaged either. Without any warning that fonts will not be packaged.
In fact, I have seen customer files sent in without the fonts and it was clearly packaged.
I can also make a pdf with the fonts embedded.
If this is a feature, I should still be warned that "the fonts are not active but I will be able to see the fonts correctly in this window.
If I save as.. or copy and paste I will not see them properly". Or something to that effect
If however, this is not a feature, I would like to know how it's working. It is repeatable on every Mac here.
By the way, I DO NOT have type kit enabled.
Thanks for any input.
Jim

Mikey,
No, definitely not activated anywhere.
I control all the fonts and know exactly where they all are, which ones have to stay, which ones the OS tries to repair when moved even though they are not crucial, etc etc.
It's odd because, if as I mentioned above, if we "save as.." and then reopen the file, the dialogue box comes up alerting the user that the fonts are indeed missing.
Also, if I drag the font frame to a new window or copy and paste to a new document, I can see in "Normal" mode the fonts become highlighted in pink, indicating of course that the font is actually missing.
We can reproduce this on all the Macs here regardless of the font(s) being used.
I wish it was as simple as a font being activated somewhere.
Thank you for the attempt though.
Jim

    You could use the free tool iStat Pro to see what changes when you connect your MBA to the display. Without doing anything the CPU pane should show a high percentage for "Idle". If the idle value is too low, launch the Activity Monitor and sort by CPU usage. There is a pane showing the different temperatures of your computer. Watch them for a few minutes after connecting the display.

  • External drive shows up when NOT connected

    I have a FANTOM external drive where I keep my music and photos, but recently I've been having a problem. I accidentally downloaded photos to my computer when the drive wasn't connected, and my computer seems to have created it's own directory (or partition, or something, I don't know) called FANTOM and put the photos there, but I can't find any way to access it.
    This means that when I open iPhoto, the pictures that I downloaded most recently are there. But if I do a search in Finder, my computer can't find any of the files - there's no iPhoto Library, and if I search by the file names of individual pictures, nothing comes up.
    I finally tried exporting one of the photos from iPhoto, and the default location it comes up with to export the photo to is XXX's Computer/Macintosh HD/Volumes/FANTOM/Pictures/iPhoto Library. If I click OK, it seems to save the photo to that location - when I go back and export another photo, the first one I exported shows up in that folder. The only problem is, my FANTOM drive isn't actually connected. So where is it putting the photo?
    What I would like to do is get rid of this mysterious FANTOM drive that seems to reside somewhere on my computer, so that I can connect my real FANTOM drive and use my real iPhoto Library. At the moment, even when I connect my external drive (and it shows up on the desktop and all that), my computer still only shows the pictures that are in the other iPhoto Library on its own, mystery FANTOM drive. And since I can't even find that mystery drive on my computer, there's no way for me to delete that iPhoto Library or rename it so that I can switch to the library on my real external drive.
    Has anyone experienced this before? The best explanation I can come up with is that my computer looked for my external drive, and when it didn't find it, it created another imaginary drive with the same name - but that doesn't explain why the ONLY time it actually shows me this directory is when I'm trying to export a photo from iPhoto (it doesn't show up as a drive in Finder), or why the files in that directory don't show up when I search "Everywhere" on my computer.
    Thanks for your help.

    HI
    If you want to use match when your hard drive is not attached, I suggest that you create a new blank library then turn on match, you will see all your music in cloud. Hold option key whilst launching iTunes and select create new library. You can switch between libraries as required.

  • My scroll bar dissapears when my firefox screen isn't maximized - how do I make it show up when not full screen?

    This just happened spontaneously yesterday - did I press some strange shortcut to make this happen? How do I get my scroll bar back when not in full screen?
    Please help!

    It is possible that the screen is too high and that the status bar and scroll bar fall off at the bottom.<br />
    Open the system menu via Alt+Space and see if you can resize that window.<br />
    If that works then close Firefox to save that setting.<br />

  • Fonts are not showing properly when opened through mail?

    When sending a PDF via email the Frutiger font does not appear properly on an iPad or iPhone. When viewed on an iPhone all the text appears as gradient boxes and when viewing on an iPad font becomes too light to be legible. Is this a problem with the font in the iOS platform? I also tried opening the file in iBooks and got the same outcome.

  • Document not showing properly when opening in Acrobat 9 Pro

    When I create a document in InDesign and export it as a PDF, I want to see what it looks like as the PDF. One of the documents that I opened does not look as it should. It only has the photo on the ad but is missing the red background and the words on the ad. As a thumbnail, it looks correct. But, it is not showing up correctly when I open it in Acrobat. Some of the other ads are fine but this one in particular is not showing me all the elements. What do I do to fix this?

    Yes, I have the most current version of AA9. I exported the document from InDesign using the PDF exporter. That is what I have used for years and it has worked fine. I just installed CS4 yesterday.
    I think I realized what the problem is but I don't know how to fix it properly. I actually went back to the preferences in AA9 to the document color options in accessibility and changed it back to its original state (which, I believe, is where nothing is checked). I had originally changed it because I was trying to experiment with the background of the program. It's black and when I open a PDF, I can't see the black border. But I mistakenly changed the document color. Which brings me to the question of: how do you change the background color of the page so that I can see the black border on the document? I sell advertising so I need to be sure that when people send me their ads, they have black borders. And I can't tell when it has the background behind the document so dark. Acrobat Reader has a white background.
    Additionally, can I still install the latest Acrobat Reader and use that instead of AA9 if I want to? It seems easier.

  • HTMl Signature not showing properly when reply/forward a message.

    Hi
    I am a new user of Outlook 2013, I have a HTML signature which worked properly in Outlook 2010.
    The signature also work properly in Outlook 2013, when I am sending a new message, but the problem arise when I try to reply/forward a message. My replied/forwarded message came to right side. Which should be under my email signature.
    Can anyone help me for resolve the issue.
    Thanks for your time
    Kind Regards

    Hi,
    From the description, when you reply/forward an email, the signature appears under the quoted email, am I correct?
    Have you tried open Outlook in safe mode and test again? Press Windows key + R to open the Run command, type
    outlook /safe and press Enter.
    In addition, please try recreating the signature and test again.
    Please let me know the result.

  • Show message when not logged on

    I would like to show a message (in place of the portlet) to the users who don't have the privileges to view a page or portlet, or who aren't logged on.

    Hello Steve,
    Thanks for the feedback.  Since this appears to be a permissions issue there's one other thing to check.  When the merge modules are installed there's often an option to install for "me" or for "everyone."  Make sure the files are being deployed for everyone.
    Here are links to some RDC and .NET documents as well as the Statement of Direction for the RDC. I'm not sure if you'll actually be able to pull them up though. Some documents require a login for the Service Market Place in order to view them.  Hopefully these will work without logging in.

  • Volumes showing even when not connected

    Hi, this is my problem:
    Doing Get Info on my iPod shows it as "<My name>iPod 1". But in iTunes, and on Get Info for the iPod itself, it shows a "<My name>iPod".
    If I go into Terminal and /Volumes, there are two listings- the iPod, and iPod 1.
    I've completely reset my iPod to see if that will rectify matters. It hasn't.
    Even without the iPod connected it still shows as a Volume. If I try umount, I get the message:
    umount: <My name> iPod: not currently mounted
    I got round it by changing the iPod name. However, now I have two instances of the new name, with one showing all the time on volumes
    How can I remove these "rogue" values and stop this recurring?
    Thanks!

    OK, I've solved it! I'm not sure if this will stop it happening again, but this eliminated the issue.
    By chance, I was running Disk Inventory X. In the graphical display there is a section called Volumes, and sat in there were all the iPods that my system thought were connected when they weren't.
    There is a Move to Trash option, so I thought "Nothing ventured, nothing gained" and gave it a go - it worked!!
    Hope this comes in handy for anyone else who may get this issue

  • Can not refresh page after save properly(When not saving master record)

    I am using jdeveloper 11g R2 (11.1.2.3) JSF Facelet
    In some use case I have Address as master table and Person as detail table
    For some business reason I need to don't save same addresses
    eg:
    If +1 Test St+ is in database already and new user coming and adding this address with new person
    I need to use the row in database not creating a new address
    I do saving in doDML method of Address with some hashing algorithm and it is fine
    My problem is that I can not refresh page after save properly
    User coming to page think Adding a new address and a new person but in fact no new
    address added because of business I describe above
    Any ideas how I can implement this?
    Appreciate that
    Regards
    Mohsen

    Hi,
    from your description it is not clear why the page doesn't refresh. It could be a problem in your implementation code - who knows. What if you perform the address check on a command button that actually submits the new address? If the check returns true (address exists) you would call row.refresh(forget new row); and re-query the view object so the address coming from the database is displayed. If you wanted to use the doDML then yuou need to be aware that doDML doesn't help removing the row the user created. It just ignores the database update but the entity is still around, which in my suggested solution wont be the case.

  • Default Keyboard showing up when not enabled

    Afternoon all,
    First off my iPhone is a 5C running iOS 8.0.2
    I recently downloaded the Swiftkey keyboard and loved it enough to remove my default English keyboard on my iPhone. So I ran into a problem when I did this though. Whenever I switched out of my Messages app and switched back the Emoji keyboard would be set to default in place of swiftkey. I had already changed the order preference under settings to have swiftkey as the first keyboard but this kept happening, enough times where I just removed the Emoji keyboard all together so just swiftkey was left. Now the problem I am running into is that the default iOS keyboard is now popping up whenever I open the app, even though it is not set as one of my keyboards. I am able to get the custom keyboard back by closing the app and opening up again. What's the point of setting a default keyboard if the OS is just going to override it at the start anyway? Any idea if there is an easy fix or is this some bug that will have to get patched in the future?
    Thanks!

    I think I may have put iPhoto in HHS trash. Could that be the problem?
    I don't know what "HHS trash" is. If you put the iPhoto app into the trash on the Dock and emptied it, that would prevent you from opening iPhoto until it was reinstalled, of course, but it wouldn't affect your photos.
    You didn't answer my question, though. Do you have backups? Is your computer actually 7 years old, and has it ever had the hard drive replaced?

  • Having upgraded to lion my imac drops the internet connect when not active

    I have just upgraded to Lion and when I leave the computer unattended for a few minutes it drops its internet connection - therefore does not collect any email until I click on the Airport icon and reselect the network.

    I FINALLY SOLVED THIS ISSUE!!!!
    New routers have "mixed" modes for your network; this means that it will automatically choose the best option between wireless-B, wireless-G and wireless-N network modes. I used to experience this issue using the 2.4 GHz. mixed mode wireless network.
    Thankfully, my router can create 2 networks: a 2.4 GHz. network and a 5 GHz. network.
    When I randomly changed this value to "use only wireless-B and wireless-G" trying to fix an issue with a wi-fi expander, the iMac wi-fi  issue dissapeared! I tried it with wireless-N only, but it didn't work.
    So, finally, I have a 2.4 GHz network with only wireless-B and wireless-G modes which works PERFECT with the iMac, and a 5 GHz. network with a mixed* wireless mode for everything else mode.
    *PD: by "mixed" mode it means that the router will automatically choose between B, G and N network modes as it fits better.

  • Subscription shows delivered but not active. What ...

    Before posting this thread, I read most of the subscriptions forms, but none is much of help. 
    I have purchased the 400 mints to Laos subscription last month (works great), noticing I am running low on minutes, I purchased another 400 mints to Laos last night. Hoping that the new minutes will just kick in when I am done with the minutes I had from previous.
    It shows that my purchased has been delievered of first payment (feb 12. 2012), next payment will be taken on (april 4,2012) with conformation numbers and all.
    When i used all my minutes from the first month, no minutes kick in and it did not show anything of my order of purchased.
    On my 400 mints to laos subscription setting now, it says 0 minutes left, renew minutes on march 7th. But my order was successfull and active (feb 12, 2012) WTHECK? Can someone please help me? I dont understand? Im trying to get those minutes i purchased. 
    Plus, when i tried to buy more skype credits, it wont let me buy it. Keeps saying I've reach my options not aviable because im using the using the same card of payment...why is that?
    thks!!!

    Hello,
    1. Your newly purchased minutes will be added to your account on March 7th 2012 which is the monthly anniversary of your original prurchase. It doesn't matter when you buy the minutes. They can't be added to a monthly Plan before a month has been completed.
    2. I don't quite understand your question. Can you clarify please.
    TIME ZONE - US EASTERN. LOCATION - PHILADELPHIA, PA, USA.
    I recommend that you always run the latest Skype version: Windows & Mac
    If my advice helped to fix your issue please mark it as a solution to help others.
