missing font style in AD (and AP Beta) on W10

[djockim]

Hi,

I imported Helvetica Neue in my computer (Windows 10) from dfont file, using a converter.
Font are available in the Windows Font Library in 11 differents styles (thin, thin italic, light, regular, medium, etc...). I can use them in another programm (Scribus)
However AD show only 3 style instead of the 11.
see screenshot below (styles font are duplicate, may be du to the several manipulation I did to fix the issue...)

Any idea how to fix it ?

Thanks

Hi djockim,

If i'm right a dfont file is a font file for a Mac and i suspect it will have been the conversation that would of caused this issue.  Also they really shouldn't be listed twice in the Windows Font section.  I suspect it will be the conversion thats caused the issue and can only suggest trying to find a ttf/otf version of the font.

You are right about that. More info about dfont files here -- basically they are not cross-platform compatible.
