Affinity Designer 2.5.0 update - i cant' see my font


Recommended Posts

Hello, I just updated my AfD to 2.5 version and surprisingly lost possibility to use Myriad Pro font family even though i use them in 2.42 version a minute ago (just before update) :( In Publisher i still see these fonts, but AfD 2.5 showed me the this message (see enclosed). Plaease help - this is my main font and i can't use my previous projects (catalogues, brochures, leaflets) because due this issue they are totaly messed up! Even reinstaling fonts (Windows is "seeing" them properly) or switching the computer on/off is not solving the case.

 

Use Windows 10 pro, 64 bit.

Yes, it looks similar but in my case AfD is seeing only fonts instaled in C:\Windows\Fonts and totaly ignores those from C:\Users\UserName\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Fonts - can i force somehow AfD to scan also the other directory as well?

No.

Do you have multiple users using your Windows PC? If not, the easiest approach might be to install the fonts for all users (instead of just you), and then delete them from your user directory. 

There are some instructions here:
