![]() ![]() So, learn the proper way to add fonts in your Illustrator when you follow the steps below. I suspect that I simply have too many fonts for Illustrator to list, but thought I'd ask in case there were another reason.Using the right fonts in your design or illustration is very essential to help your audience easily read and understand the text in your work. I get a page where the last font has a name starting with R, and a "More" entry at the top with no arrow. Pass your mouse over that entry and you get another page keep doing it, and eventually you should have a list of every font in your system.īut mine stops before then. The page has the fonts listed alphabetically, and if there are more than enough to fill that page, there's an entry at the top with an arrow labelled "More." (It looks like the list you see when you click on Start, then Programs, on your desktop.) That gets you a page just wide enough to contain the font names. ![]() You get to that list by clicking on "Type" in the tool bar at the top of the page, and passing the mouse over "Font" in the resulting drop down menu. But there is another list where the last ones are missing. Your response time is just fine! I wish I had more time to devote to this, but … Īll of my fonts are now shown in the Character palette. Try scrolling it up and down with the mouse and see if there's one only list or there's still a horizontal line somewhere that has another list after it. What do you mean by "the Font list stops"? Does it mean that you're scrolling it with the Up and Down keys and just can't pass some specific font? Or does it mean that the list actually doesn't have anything below that font that starts with "r"? (They are in the Character drop-down.)ĭo I need to edit the other copies in the same way? What are they for? (Well, OK, three of them are obviously for Acrobat.) Here’s the list of folders containing AdobeFnt.lst:Ĭ:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\TypeSptĬ:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Fonts\Reqrd\CmapsĬ:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\FontsĬ:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Acrobat\CmapsĬ:\Program Files \Adobe\Illustrator 9.0.1\Required\FontsĬ:\Program Files\ Adobe\Acrobat 4.0\Resource\FontsĬ:\Program Files\ Adobe\Acrobat 4.0\Resource\Cmapsįrankly, I don't know what the rest of them are for :) The one I edit is also in the TypeSpt dirrectory, so I guess that was the right one.Īlso, it's the first time I hear about a cut font list. However, the Font list stops at some font whose name starts with R, so the rest of the R’s and the fonts with names beginning with S – Z are not shown. The problem now appears fixed at least I can find the fonts in the Character drop-down, and some are in the Font list. I edited the first one, which is in C:\Program Files\Common Files/Adobe\TypeSpt, and changed EastEuropeanRoman to Roman in a large number of cases (I have a lot of fonts). (Not counting one in my “Recent” folder.) I did a search on AdobeFnt.lst and came up with 7 (count ‘em, seven) files of that name. Hence, it's preferrable to talk here and not by e-mail. Now, the whole idea of the Forums is to give people that have troubles all possible information about their issues. Sorry for not responding, I just missed your mail when revieving my mailbox. I have a shortcut on the desktop to the AdobeFnt.lst file to make the task a bit less tedious, for many's the fonts that cause this sort of trouble. Use the Replace command to replace all of the appearacnces of EastEuropeanRoman by simply Roman. You can search for the file with Windows Explorer's Find, there will be several of them, you'll need the one on your system disk in the Common Files directory (or its analog in XP).Ĭlose AI and open the AdobeFnt.lst with a text editor (WordPad works just well). If this is the case, normally you won't be able to use these fonts (they just won't show as they should be) unless you correct the WritingScript value in the AdobeFnt.lst file. Scroll down the list to see if there's something there. Such fonts usually appear in the Character palette at the bottom of the list, after a horizontal line. AFAIK, some fonts have the WritingScript value incorrectly set to EastEuropeanRoman instead of Roman, which confuses AI. ![]()
