Turning Off Font Substitution

How do I turn off font substitution on my HP PSC 1110 Printer? There is no place on my computer to do this.My printer prints out differently than what I see on my monitor and I looked up the info on this and directions told me to "turn off font substitution " and "download as soft font".I am running Windows XP Home Edition and I cannot find any place on the computer to set these options.Can anyone please tell me how I can do this so my printer will print the same as what I see on my monitor?

Well they did get it correct, except they are now using Open Type to do so, It works very well with Open Type which gives you a lot of options for this support as well.
And it is probably not going to happen for Type 1 as i=they are not made and had more problems then does Open Type.

Turn off font preview in PS CC 2014?

I'm attempting to troubleshoot performance issues with Photoshop and one thing I am seeing in Adobe's FAQs is that I should be able to turn off font previews in the preferences in the Type preference panel. However, I am not seeing that option. Has this been removed or moved elsewhere in PS CC 2014 or is it no longer considered a relevant performance tweak... or is something wrong with my install? Screenshot:
My version of Photoshop is 2014.1.0 / 20140730.r.148 x64
Running on Mac OS X 10.9.4
iMac 3.5GHz i7, 32GB RAM, 6TB RAID 0, 1TB startup SSD
PS. The issue I am actually troubleshooting (if anyone reading this has any insight) is that large doc sizes (~100MB) with many layers (both vector and type) have become largely unusable as minor edits such as resizing or moving a layer results in beachball for upwards of 20-30 seconds with the Console reporting that Photoshop has been "caught burning CPU!" (exclamation point is Apple's, not mine). Anyway, sounds naughty. Hardware tests have come up empty so I am revisiting my otherwise unchanged settings to see if I can fix the issues.
Thanks in advance for any advice or thoughts!

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh... in the Type MENU, not the preferences... Thanks!

How do I completely turn off font smoothing on my MacBook pro?

I am at a loss. I've seen dozens of people complain about this, but I'm still hoping there's a solution: How do I turn off font smoothing on my MacBook pro? I've toggled the anti-aliasing options every which way, and no matter what I do, the text is always slightly blurry (there's always a slight halo of grey around the characters to smooth them out). This would be the perfect computer if I could just turn that dang feature off completely, but as it is it's so hard on my eyes I can't use it for reading or writing for any extended period.

DigiLloyd posted some aditional info on this subject, here:
"Apple abandoned useful font smoothing user interface support in Mac OS X Leopard for a “moron setting” in Mac OS X Snow Leopard, leaving those with non-Apple displays high and dry with unattractive text display.
You’ll need to use Terminal to set things right (or at least better, which is not to say optimal)."

Turn off font smoothing

I love thin clear fonts when they are not smoothed. Please FIND A WAY to turn font smoothing off.
I turn it off from windows 7 also. I don't know why are you so in love with the ugly font smoothing, which makes the fonts appear bloated and fuzzy.
PLEASE APPLE MAKE IT TURN OFF!

Thanks, I appreciate it, but I know that.
And it doesn't work. It doesn't deactivate it from menu, from XCode pop-up menus, that option is completely useless.
I think Mac fails miserably with fonts, and it just ruins an otherwise good OS.
It doesn't look as bad on retina displays, but that's only because you have twice as many pixels to work with.
And still it bloats the fonts unnecessarily.
It's just ugly.
I was so mad with fonts, I wanted to write my own kerner driver just to turn smoothing off.
It's just horrible, and for a company that takes pride in being the first to bring truetype fonts and graphic user interface, having tasteless fonts is just bad.
Windows also tried to follow you, they added an ugly Segoe font and some other font to their Outlook. Luckily I can redirect them into Arial or Verdana through registry. With Mac it's really built into their OS. This ugly Lucida Grande... What's so nice about this font?
I may sound like I am trashing or ranting, but I speak this way in hopes that somebody notices and makes a normal update to the otherwise normal OS. Their font is just ugly. It looks ugly. There is nothing nice about the way Mac makes fonts smoothing. It would be much better off if it could have been turned off.
Just because the developers of Mac OS is used to seing their font uglyfied by smoothing, and sees no harm in it, doesn't mean everybody shares their preferences. I am a developer too, and I also produce software for sale, It's the user who they should listen, they will be surprised to learn how wrong they are...

How do I turn off font preview in Photoshop CC2014

Though I can see that the font preview on the fonts selector could be useful, I dislike that is has been forced upon us. It slows things down, and I don't need to preview the fonts.
Is there any way to turn this off please?

Hi Andrew,
A lot of users requested for this feature, that is why it was implemented in CC2014 version.
You can revert to Photoshop CC version as there is no way right now to turn of the font preview.
Thank you for posting on Adobe Forums.

Please allow ability to globally turn off font smoothing!

Apple,
I sit in front of Windows PC's for 8 hours a day as an engineer. I grew up on macs, and I have a 17" Macbook Pro High Def at home. I have really tried to get used to the font smoothing settings (i've tried all of them) but I still prefer the non anti-aliased look (ie off).
I've tried to find a way to globally disable this in OSX but I can't. The only thing that I have found is the following command in the terminal application:
defaults write -g AppleAntiAliasingThreshold 128
This works for 90% of the stuff I work in. Most Safari pages are not anti-aliased after I do this step and they look great. There are still a few pages that use anti-aliased fonts (apple.com) but I can live with it.
Apple, please provide a way to disable anti-aliasing system wide, and for an option to change the fonts to something other than Lucinda Grande.
thanks,
Jeff

How can I turn off fonts

I've disabled fonts in fontbook and various othe rfont management programs but nothing seems to disable them as far as InDesign is concerned. My font menu is still full of garbage fonts that I"ll never use and never wanted. How can I get rid of them? This happens on InDesign CS4 and on CS6 in all applications. I'm using an iMac with OS 10.7.5

Remove fonts manually from these two locations:
<home> > Library > Fonts (In recent OSX versions hold down the Option key and choose Go > Library to get to the Library folder.)
Library > Fonts
Also remove from Applications > Adobe InDesign [version number] > Fonts if you've placed any there.

How can I turn off Font warnings?

Hi gang, there used to be a preferences panel where I could toggle a bunch of warnings in Flash, but I can't find it anymore. I googled and failed. Anybody know if / how I can get Flash to not warn me when I'm missing a font? I have my reasons, but not worth explaining.
Thanks,
Dan P.

Is there any way to turn off the auto formatting in Pages? I just want to type a letter and add pictures and titles, and Pages keeps changing font sizes and doesn't let me "Do it my way". I HATE this!

Is there any way to turn off the auto formatting in Pages? I'm using a blank document, so I figured I could write my letter and add pictures any way I wanted to. But NO! Pages keeps changing the font size! I typed a large heading as a title, and when I try to change to a smaller font for the body of the letter, it changes the size back to the larger size! I am getting SO FRUSTRATED! I've spent over an hour trying to get the stupid program to let me just type my letter! Can anyone help?

The only one left is the "unsubmitted text" dialogue, which would not be a problem if I were not a Facebook user; after updating the "Richard is..." field (which does not require a manual submit to actually send) I get the above message. This is obviously Safari just not realising that the info has been sent and is therefore (I imagine) one for Apple themselves to answer!!
You're welcome Rich. Glad to help.
Not being a Facebook User, I'm not sure how to respond to the error situation. However, this would be something to report to Apple as a bug via the Safari Menu. First, open to the page in question, then select "Report Bugs to Apple".

Garamond font is turned off. I restored it but it's not showing up in Pages. How do I correct this problem?

Garamond font is turned off when I installed OS X Mavericks. I restored it but it's not showing up in Pages. How do I fix this problem?

Try opening up:
/Applications/Font Book
Scroll to the Garamont Font, then try File > Validate font
If this doesnt work, right click (or control + click) the font and select show in finder. Makes sure it is not located in the /Library/Disabled Fonts/ folder

I get this message when I am trying to save a file that was done in CS4, now using CS6 "Cannot save the file as the font "ArmenianLSU-italic" could not be embedded because of licensing restrictions. Turn off the pdf compatibility option and try again." Even if I start a new file I unable to save it with this font. I need to use this font.

Then you need to outline all text before savng the PDF.
Make sure you do this on a copy of the file.

Turn off create font outline

I followed the steps to create a font outline, manipulated the selected font, then moved to a new page-project - I inserted new type - it looks fine at 11 pt, but when I enlarged it, it still has the outline effect - also, the font becomes nothing but a black blob the more I increase the size - seems like the create outline command is still working on a new page.
How do I turn off the create outline command so I can return to regular fonts on new pages?
thanks
Bruce

The create outline command is a 1 shot deal. It doesn't stay on or off like a switch, its more of a conversion process. which is applied to only what was selected and then it is done.
Even if the new type on the new page was in outline form, it would not explain what is happening. Outlining simply means that you can no longer edit the text, it is now a path. Since it is a path, it retains its shape and characteristics no matter how much you scale it.
If you rasterise the text, apply a drop shadow or any other raster effect to the text, then those effects would be effected when scaling.
Everything I type above is my best guess for not seeing your screen, which is why Monika requested a screen shot.

Files and font sync turn off working with InDesign..

Hi
Files and font sync turns off when I work with InDesign directly on the CC disctop files folder. It use to be ok to work directly in sync mode, but apparently not any more. I guess the problem is the backup file that InDesign creates, that consist of signs behaps not allowed (?). It use to work for me, but not any more..?
Do anyone els have the same problem?
Jørgen

Hi again
Thanks for your reply. In the Creative Cloud Help page I get, it says: "Save and close the file when you're done editing it and the error goes away.", but I actually have to reconnect. The bad thing about this is that it turns off the font sync as well when I was working.
I have temporarely solved the problem, simply be changing the name of the file I'm working on. I have tryed to reproduce it with a different name - all with leagal signs according to the page mensioned above - with no success (which is positive). Then I tryed to move the file to a new folder within the folder I was working on, and then it worked without problem. Strange.
I guess, if I run in to the same problem again, I will just try to change the name.
Thanks
J

Turn off this nag screen?? "Some text layers contain fonts that are missing"

Hi all, I have recently been handed a web project from a mac user and everytime I open one of the pages I get the following message. "Some text layers contain fonts that are missing...etc" I have the same exact fonts but in the new open type format. Anyways apparently photoshop can't tell that. I would like to TURN OFF this nag screen. I am not even editing the text layer with the font.
Is there anyway to turn off this nag screen? I turned off glyph protection in the prefrences and restarted photoshop to no avail.

The missing fonts will be listed in grayed out color in the separate last section at the bottom of the font menu accessible from the text tool's property or the character panel
The layers with missing fonts will have the warning sign on the layer's icon in the layer's panel however the missing font/s will be displayed with the correct font. When you try to edit the text on such layer, Photoshop will show a message with the missing font/s and will say that it will be converted if you edit it. If you choose OK, and you have different fonts on the same layer, watch which fonts will change appearance.

Font update Selected text, turn off as scrolling.

I'm scrolling down the list of fonts, and Photoshop is trying to update the selected text layers as I scroll.
I don't want it to do that until I click on one that I want to see.
How do I do this?
And how do I change the sample text in this dropdown list of fonts so it's something more original than "Sample"?

You are kidding, right?
This is the most ridiculous defence of a truly bizarre UX "upgrade" in Photoshop.
The entire point of wanting to change ALL the layers at one time is to get a feel for how they will ALL look, and visually weight the final result.
And I want to trial several fonts, actually quite a few, until I'm able to find the one that works best, through my own assessment. And I don't want to be doing this for more than a few moments, at any given time.
In prior versions of Photoshop this was a rapid process.
Now it's a fucn nightmare of waiting, stuttering scrolling, preferably turning off effects and complex blends first, and then choosing the font, from a list that's now miles longer because all weightings of all fonts are in the same list.
However came up with these ridiculous ideas is a moron. Out and out.
This comes in the wake of Fireworks being evaporated... the kind of app where folks like me would previously do complex UI designs. Now we have Photoshop.
Great snapping in this version. But this font process is utter nonsense for anything other than iPhoto level text editing.
