mickmcg Posted November 15, 2009 Share Posted November 15, 2009 I read that v3.5 includes fix for missing fonts. * The font manager for the Text tool has been completely rewritten, which fixes many problems seen with crashes and missing fonts. But on my machine I have exactly the opposite. With v3.36 I had no missing fonts but since upgrading to v3.50 I find that several fonts no longer show up in the list. To me it looks like it the way it is parsing the fonts folder. For example it shows "Aerial" but not "Aerial Black" and it shows "Ligurino" but not "Ligurino Condensed" It is like it is assuming Aerial Black is the same font family as Aerial and Ligurino Condensed is the same as Ligurino but they are actually different fonts.

mickmcg Posted November 25, 2009 Author Share Posted November 25, 2009 Thanks for the tip. I used the /disableDirectWrite parameter to force the old way of handling fonts and I can now choose the hidden ones like Aerial Black and Ligurino Condensed etc. This is a good work around for me for now. Thanks, Mick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
