kenmcd Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 This is from APublisher 1.7.0.238 Beta. But it is not working properly. It is not listed properly on my system because the font name is in Chinese and I don't have Chinese installed. The glyphs do not display properly in the Glyphs Browser. The export to PDF fails - probably because the PostScript Name is not proper format. These old fonts were probably not done correctly even to the old TrueType standards. They are such a mess that I do not see them working properly in any modern app. How is PDF export ever going to work without a proper PostScript Name? I only installed the one font so while there are errors there is not the multi-font name duplicates confusion that I am sure you have. The APub font cache would need to be re-set by un-installing the fonts and restarting. Your operating system font cache probably has issues and should be re-set. As I said above, these fonts need to be updated to modern standards. They may work if just the name fields are fixed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lensman Posted February 13, 2019 Author Share Posted February 13, 2019 I'll give that a try. Thank you very much for the informative replies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenmcd Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 Try this ... TradChineseSealScript.ttf I do not have any experience with CJK fonts, but it seems to work. Did some quick tests in LibreOffice, listed properly in fonts list, inserted some characters, and Export to PDF worked properly. Give it a try in APub and let us know how it works.

Lensman Posted February 14, 2019 Author Share Posted February 14, 2019 You rock - that worked! Way cool. Thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenmcd Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 Great. Good to know. Apparently just configuring the name fields properly did the trick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have a besser proposal to narrow down the issue? I swear by the life my grandma, that I will eat up the font after having a look at @Lensman’s issue . (Hope, I am able to do this before Monotype detects this particular thread.) Trust me, Monotype will not care; not one tiny bit. They want people to be able to use their fonts.

So.Creative Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 I tried exporting an .indd as an .idml to open in AP and none of my truetype fonts display. Do I need to create a new thread? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lensman Posted February 27, 2020 Author Share Posted February 27, 2020 That may be best since my specific font issue has been resolved. Also, a new thread with a more succinct title (about exporting and TTFs) would help others find the particular issue you are having. I hope you find a quick solution.
