Fonts Missing from Font Menus
Problem
Bitstream fonts do not show up in the Font menu of my application.
Solution
- Check that you have installed the
fonts correctly.
- Fonts outside of a suitcase may not appear in the Font menu.
- You can only install 128 font suitcases at one time.
- Next, try closing the application and restarting it. For some
applications, if you install a font while it is running, it does
not rebuild the font menu to show the fonts you have added.
- Try restarting the computer.
- Check a simple application, such as KeyCaps (usually found on
the Apple menu). If the font works with KeyCaps, but not in your
application, consult the User's Guide for your application. There
may be special requirements for font installation.
- If you are using Adobe Type Manager (ATM) Deluxe, check the
Known Fonts list. If the fonts do not
appear on this list, follow the ATM instructions for adding the
fonts to this list. If you installed fonts into the System Folder
using the drag and drop method rather than using ATM, use ATM
now to scan the Fonts folder for fonts.
