Reply To: Resolving missing fonts/duplicates across multiple machines

Sounds frustrating; I can only offer some suggestions:

1. Create a new folder on each Mac, at the User level or desktop for these fonts. Mac OS X has separate Libraries for the System and Users, so it could be in the wrong Library. (Delete the alias for the folder you made)

2. Consider a font management program. There are a lot of them in all price ranges; Extensis Fusion 6 is on the high end, but for 10 licenses, it may be in your budget. I work at a print shop, so I am loading and unloading fonts all day long, and it works.

3. You’re right, you would have chosen the TTF or OTF and InDesign wants the same version. You can replace with the other one if it’s available.

4. Clear your font cache:

Good luck.
