Typekit fonts + showing reflow project for approval?

Similar question to a few others I have seen here but haven't found a good answer too.
I have a Reflow project that uses a Typkit kit (contains some of the Museo fonts) and I want to show this for approval via our internal network. What is the easiest way to do this and have the Typekit fonts display correctly?
Just sending a link to a copy of the assets folder that I put in my public drive means the font won't display correctly. Can I put the files on DropBox? And if so, what do I enter as a domain in the "Kit Settings" folder to get this to work if the files are on Dropbox? Or is there a better way to handle this?
Apologies in advance for my ignorance.
Thanks!

Hi KP,
I'm sorry that you ran into trouble with this. The project will need to be staged on a web server for the Typekit fonts to load.  This is because Typekit requires the browser referrer for font loading, and the referrer is not sent when a file is opened in the browser as "file://".
You can do this with Dropbox, by placing the file in the Dropbox Public folder.  You should see a file there called "How to use the Public folder.rtf" which explains how to set this up, or you can find the information in the Dropbox help pages.
Then add the Dropbox domain name to your kit, e.g. dl.dropboxusercontent.com: TYPEKIT | Domains
(Don't forget to republish the kit after adding the domain.)
Alternately, you can stage the project on your own internal or testing URL.  Again, just make sure that you have added the temporary location to the domain listing on your kit.
If you have any questions or problems, you can reach us here on the forum or directly at [email protected]  Thank you,

  • Using Typekit fonts in print projects

    I have just started using a Typekit font for my demonstrations.
    However, I am interested in using it for my next book but I have questions.
    Are the Typekit fonts suitable for print production? They are listed as OpenType. Is that ordinary OpenType?
    The Typekit fonts don't show up in the Documet Fonts folder when the job is packaged? If I have to send native ID files to my publisher, what would they have to have to edit the job?
    Are the fonts embedded in PDF files?
    Anyone have any caveats I should know about?

    Mario,
    There is absolutely nothing underhanded about what Ben is telling you.
    There are two ways you can use the Typekit fonts for print publishing workflows.
    (1)     The first way is to compose in InDesign with the Typekit fonts as you would with any fonts that you have otherwise licensed and have installed on your desktop system. For the purposes of printing, export PDF (preferably PDF/X-4 settings) and send the resultant PDF file to your print service provider. All the Typekit fonts are properly embedded in the PDF file and your print service provider should have no issues with printing the text formatted with said fonts.
    (2)     The second method assumes that your print service provider (or some intermediary) is going to be doing further edits to your work before producing the PDF file that you would have created per (1) above. Typically you would “package” such documents into a directory structure that copies linked content and fonts. The only difference with the Typekit fonts is that such fonts are not included in the package. But since whoever is going to do those further edits and/or PDF export also needs the CC version of InDesign, they will also have access to the same Typekit fonts that you do via the Creative Cloud software. There is no need to package the fonts from them. If they have older CS versions of InDesign, they will not be able to open your CC version InDesign document anyway.
    So what is exactly the problem you are complaining about? You have access to the fonts. Your print service provider has access to the fonts (assuming they have the software necessary to even open up your InDesign document).
    The only difference is that Typekti fonts are not available as “loose” font files. You can't install them on any system that isn't currently licensed for the Adobe Creative Cloud.
    (For what it is worth, common practice notwithstanding, the ability to package the fonts - other than Typekit fonts and certain Asian fonts - used in an InDesign document does not free the recipient of the obligation to fully and properly license such fonts. The packaging operation is provided as a convenience, not as a substitute for properly licensing the digital assets in question!)

  • Can I use Type -- 'convert to outline' in Illustrator on Typekit fonts I've 'designated for desktop use'? I've not been able to as of yet.

    I'm trying to print vinyl letters for a gallery I'm a member of and love the Cronos Pro regular font. i've designated this for desktop use and created 24 name files at 200pt. The person working with the vinyl asked if I could 'convert to outline' possibly to make the font a bit larger, I don't really know. When I tried to do this, I found that choice grayed out on the type menu. I am wondering if this means the Typekit fonts 'designated for desktop use' simply do not have the permission to be 'converted to outline'.

    Cutting always requires proper paths/ outlines. This has nothing to do with the font or large format printing per se. Beyond that there should be no limitation in using fonts - as long as you can mangle them in AI, it means that somewhere those outlines exist internal to the program so the type can actually be rendered. Whatever prevents this may more likely be inherent in how you treat your text. you would have to provide more specific info on that. Either way, ask in the AI forum for more detailed answers.

  • CFolders Main Page - To show pending Tasks for approval

    Hi,
    When ever the user login to cFolders 4.5, they see the first page as My colloboration <User Name>. So from there they need to drill down to respective project and then to folders and then to documents to approve the pending drawings.
    So the above involves at least 3 or 4 screens for them to go for the approval screen.
    Is there anyway, when ever the approval user logs in, he/she should see only those pending tasks available for them to approve, so that they just approve and log out.
    Regards,
    Ani

    Hi,
    two methods to set task for approval as home page.
    1.From super user login, u can set what ever page as home page for all users. only at front end u can change these settings. at  right top corner settings tab provided.
    2. second option is, user can set his/her home page as from his login only. its is based on individual user settings and these settings for home page will be different from user to user.
    but in first case it wil be applicable for all users.
    thanks

  • Blank screen on edge inspect when viewing reflow project

    I'm trying to view my reflow project on an iphone 5 through the Chrome plugin but every time I connect to the phone all I get is a blank screen. If I add a chrome tab and view another page like google.com for instance I see it fine on the phone.  Any idea what the issue could be here?

    Hi,
    Please provide more information to help us understand the issue:
    1. Are you using TypeKit fonts in your project? If yes, then issue is when your device connects to to your computer as the websever, Typekit does't see you computer as an authored user of your fonts. The devices ins't connecting to "localhost" but using whatever the ip address of you computer is on the network. If you want to preview the fonts you either need to add your computers IP address to your kit settings or put the preview up on a server that your kit allows.
    2. Are all the application components running on the same Subnet?

  • Goods confirmation workflow is awaiting for approval

    Hi Gurus,
    while confirm the goods/service when try to check the document i am getting a message as the document is free from errors but when i click on confirm the history is showing as " waiting for approval" but when i go to item details and click on approval button it is showing as "error in process".
    Has anybody experienced this type of problem?.
    Thanks,
    mahesh

    Hello Mahesh,
    You can verify the status of the Confirmation document through BBP_PD transaction.
    The confirmation status if the Awaiting approval should not yet checked.
    hence please check the status of the workflow related to the same confirmation in swi6 TRANSACTION.
    Try to complete the Workflow manually if the workflo is stucked.
    Then verify the status of the docment
    let me know if u have any difficulties in the above.
    Regards,
    Krish

  • SC status is still in Awaiting for Approval Even after PO and confirmation creation.

    Hi Experts,
    We have SRM 7.0 with Classic scenario, Here we have strange case where for One SC already backend PO created and Confirmation is done. Still SC status is showing as Awaiting for approval. Kindly Help me to solve this issue.
    Thanks in advance

    Basu

    Hi Basu,
    What is the workflow framework that your are using. Is  it application controlled workflow?
    1.     Go to T code BBP_PD and check if the workflow triggered for the shopping cart is in in-Process status. If it is in in-process status copy the header workitem and go to T code SWPC , remove all the values displayed in the selection screen just enter the header work item ID and execute.  If you are able to see any entry after execution select it and click on continue workflow. this will fix your problem.
    2.     Check in transaction SM58 to see if there are any failed entry on the day of shopping cart creation , if there is any entry in failed status please reprocess the LUW.
    hopefully any one of the above steps will fix your issue.
    Regards,
    Suresh

  • Packaging typekit fonts

    I have some material that is being printed at an offset printer, but the typekit fonts don't package with the InDesign file. Is there a way around this other than converting the text to outlines?

    Typekit fonts are not licensed for packaging.
    The printer has two options: (1) Any printer worth his salt should have at least one copy of InDesign CC. It's the principal layout application, it's not like they have to support several different applications. If they do, they will also have access to the Typekit fonts if they've updated to InDesign CC 9.2.
    (2) You can make a PDF file following the PDF preset recommended by the printer. This is a completely predictable and safe way of making sure the fonts are embedded.
    DON'T OUTLINE  YOUR FONTS! It will destroy them and may adversely affect the appearance of your work!

  • Why can I still not access any of the decent Typekit fonts?

    I've been waiting and waiting hoping that Adobe will finally get around to including all of the typekit fonts within Muse. For example I've been after the Prenton font, but notice that it's still not available from within Muse, and the same applies for many of the really good fonts.
    Why are they not available?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    I am sorry we don't have the same seamless integration with the full Typekit library as we do with Edge Web Fonts. There are two main reasons for that:
    1. Muse is a desktop application, and any use of a font in Muse Design mode is considered "desktop use". Most fonts in the Typekit library are licensed for "web use" only.
    2. Edge Web Fonts  are mostly open-source and can be used by anyone, on any domain, for unlimited page views. On the other hand, web fonts in the Typekit library need to be configured for specific domains and may be subject to page view limits. This configuration — in the form of Typekit "kits" — is done manually. We don't have the necessary means to create kits automatically (something that's needed for a fully seamless workflow).
    Looking through your other posts on various forums, I can see that you already have experience creating kits. Have you tried this workflow for Muse: http://museinsider.com/how-to-add-typekit-fonts-to-your-muse-site.html? If you haven't, please give it a try. If/when you have tried it, please let me know what you find most and least inconvenient about that worflow:
    Creating a kit at typekit.com
    Including embed code in Muse
    Inability to work with the actual font during Design
    Inability to see the actual font during Preview
    Other (please specify)
    Could you also let me know (in private, if you prefer) if you already own Prenton as a desktop/print font?
    Thanks,
    Abhishek

  • Why are the TypeKit fonts I am syncing not showing up for use in Illustrator?

    Hi there,
    I am beyond frustrated right now.  But that's neither here nor there for anyone reading this so I will get to the point.
    I have synced the TypeKit font, Tablet Gothic Wide to my Mac, but it simply won't show up as a font choice in Illustrator.  Any help here would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks
    Sam

    Hi Sam,
    I'm sorry that you ran into trouble with this.  I've confirmed that the font selections are added to your account correctly. 
    In case you weren't aware, the Creative Cloud application needs to be running on your computer in order for the fonts to be synced. If you don't have that installed, you can download it for free from https://creative.adobe.com/products
    Once you have Creative Cloud running:
    - Are the fonts showing up in the Fonts tab of Creative Cloud? 
    - If you haven't done so already, would you please try turning off font sync in the Creative Cloud application, wait a moment, and then turn it back on?  The option to do this is under the gear icon in Preferences > Fonts ("sync on/off").  Sometimes the app just needs a fresh session for the fonts to appear again.
    If that doesn't make a difference, please send your recent sync log files to Typekit Support at [email protected] so that we can look into it further.
    Thank you,

  • Project Server 2013 timesheets not showing up for approval

    We're using Project Server 2013 and entering timesheets. I'm a team manager who is set up as the timesheet approver for a few people, including Nicole.
    Nicole opens her timesheet and fills it in for the week.  She applies time to four Administrative tasks and two project tasks.
    Nicole submits her final timesheet for approval.  (We have also tried having her save it first, then to the final submission, with the same results.)
    I go to my approval screen and see the four Administrative tasks listed as separate lines.  I do not see the project tasks.
    I select the four Administrative tasks and approve them.  They disappear when the screen is submitted.
    In previous weeks, and with some other employees, I would immediately see a single line item that said "My Timesheet" for Nicole which I could then approve.  But recently this stopped, and I do not see her timesheet.
    If Nicole checks the status of the timesheet it says it's submitted to me.
    On my Approval page if I go to History, Timesheets this timesheet is not listed under "approved by me" nor is it under "my resources unsubmitted timesheets."  It's in limbo.
    The only fix is for Nicole to recall the timesheet and resubmit it.  Then it shows up on my Approval page.
    Any suggestions?
    -- Paul

    We resolved this. The solution was as follows:
    Go to PWA Settings, and under Security choose Manage Groups.
    Click the Team Members group.
    Scroll to the Categories section, and in the Selected Categories area highlight (select)
    My Tasks.
    Click the box to allow the permission called Adjust Timesheet which is under the grouping for Resource.
    Now don't ask me how or why that works.  It's not a setting that intuitively matches what's going on.  But it fixed it for us.
    By the way, we had a number of other timesheet issues (view failures, etc.) that were all cleared up when we installed the April 2014 Cumulative Update for Project Server 2013, as well as SharePoint 2013 SP1.  I highly recommend both.

  • Packaging typekit fonts for print

    When you're collecting for output/packaging a print project from InDesign and you're using Adobe Typekit, the Typekit fonts will not be packaged. Will there be any sort of warning or message so that both the artist and the print vendor are aware those fonts need to be replaced? It would also be helpful if the message mentioned Typekit so that the vendor knew where to obtain the fonts. I speak from experience, being both a designer and working for a commercial printer. Knowing whether to apply our Typekit fonts or to go back to the client for the fonts is very important.

  • REPORT TO SHOW ME AWAITING PO'S FOR APPROVAL

    Hi SAP experts,
    When PO's are created in SAP, they usually go to an Approver for approval.
    However, if there is a problem with the PO, example (wrong coding), the PO is rejected and sent back to the Approver to rectify the error. A message gets sent to the approvers workflow stating the error.
    In our company, Approvers do not have access to workflow in SAP, so they would not be able to see any messages regarding rejected workflow requests.
    Is there any type of report I could run to show me what workflow items are currently awaitaiting the approvers feedback (PO's that are not completed and awaiting information)
    The report will show me what PO's are rejected and the name of the PO owner.
    Many thanks

    Hi,
    MR11 does not result in an update if you select the correct option ("prepare list" at the bottom). so simply select the "GR/IR clearing Account" option.
    Also use a large tolerance so that you get everything.
    But I am still not sure how you have entered invoices without POs, was something other than MIRO used? If so then MR11 may not help either because this depends on POs.
    If you HAVE used something other than MIRO I doubt if you can get such a list without some clever ABAP, after all you don't have to specify the PO ever if you are doing a two way match through the FI functions instead of using MIRO. So there would not be a standard report.
