Hi all,

 

I working a project that we receive artwork(idml file + fonts) and we have to generate pdf files.

 

I need to "load" and "unload" fonts from indesign context. Right now I´m copying them (to indesign´s font´s folder) before  pdfs´ generation, but when i need to remove it, I can´t.. Indesign locked it.

 

It´s there anyway to release this fonts?  Is It possible to load it from another folder besides "indesign fonts´folder"

 

Regards

    Short answer:

     

    You can cause ID to load fonts from the default folder locations, but you can't unload fonts without restarting InDesign.

     

    Long answer:

     

    You can probably use Document fonts to accomplish what you want, but it's kind of complicated. I can help you on a consulting basis if you are interested.
