Mylenium May 8, 2012 9:00 AM (in response to paramop)Someone please tell me that there is an easier way to fix this .
There is - get rid of your new fonts. One of them is crap and throwing AE off track.

2. Re: After Effects cannot load required font!
paramop May 8, 2012 9:12 AM (in response to paramop)Thanks. I did that but I'm still getting the message 'AE Unable to load Verdana Italic' and then "After Effects cannot load required font for the AE interface. Please replace the font or reinstall AE." Any other suggestions? The fonts that I originally installed were Adobe fonts which were legally purchased.

alexcutter66 Jun 4, 2012 7:01 AM (in response to paramop)I had the same issue.
I checked Suitcase Fusion 3, and Verdana had been disabled. I turned it back on and AE opened fine.

blahberstein1919 Jun 17, 2012 6:31 PM (in response to paramop)Repair permissions (through Disk Utility) or reactivate your font manager or both. Suitcase Fusion often fails to load during start up, so you may have to relaunch through System Preferences.

JNDoub Aug 15, 2012 4:47 PM (in response to paramop)I too had this issue. I uninstalled AE CS6, reinstalled and it worked, for that launch. The next time it asked the same thing. Not willing to uninstalll and reinstall each time I want to use AE. I figured it was a font management issue. I use Suitcase Fusion. Suitcase is not launching the needed font, so I copied a vervion of the font (in my case; Varenda) to my ~/System/Library/Fonts. All is well once again.

crosstownbeef Aug 16, 2012 2:02 PM (in response to JNDoub)Hey everyone,
I just ran into this issue today, and I think it had to do with an installation of Powerpoint 2011 for Mac. Assuming you're on a Mac, go to Macintosh HD/Library/Fonts Disabled. In my case, all versions of Verdana had been moved here for some reason. Copy those fonts back to the Macintosh HD/Library/Fonts folder and relaunch After Effects. Worked for me, hope it does for you!

Hammido Sep 5, 2012 4:34 AM (in response to paramop)Everything it took for me to solve the problem was to download the "Verdana" typeface, put it inside /Library/Fonts and After Effects CS6 started up fine!
But it's awkward really that one has to download a Microsoft font to run After Effects CS6.

Trebrehsb Nov 10, 2012 10:22 AM (in response to paramop)I fixed the problem on my mac !!!.
The reason of the bug for me was to delete microsft office and then install Iwork so then when i tried to lunch AE the verdana missing font message appears.
Office has 4 verdana fonts: regular, bold, italic and bold italic you have to get installed again That works form me.
sorry for my bad English but Iam from Peru and i speak spanish ^^

12. Re: After Effects cannot load required font!
GregofNewHampshire Jan 28, 2013 8:34 PM (in response to paramop)I ran into this problem on a MacBook Pro running Mountain Lion. In Mountain Lion you need to open Font Book and look for the Verdana Font. In my case it was turned off. I clicked it and enabled it and that solved my problem. I had alread checked the library/fonts folder and confirmed that the four verdana family font files were indeed installed. Thanks for the suggestions here to look at the font library as the source of the problem rather than AE.

15. Re: After Effects cannot load required font!
pk-farrell May 9, 2013 12:37 PM (in response to paramop)in my case copying the font (which was already enabled via suitcase) from /Library/Fonts to the Users/Username-here/Library/Fonts solved the problem.

19. Re: After Effects cannot load required font!
stevem17185281 Mar 2, 2015 1:28 PM (in response to paramop)In my case I went into Library\Deactivated(disabled) Fonts and moved the deactivated fonts to the Fonts folder and AE worked afterwards.

20. Re: After Effects cannot load required font!
Steve Maser Aug 17, 2015 1:59 PM (in response to stevem17185281)We are seeing a variation of this problem with After Effects CS6 11.0.4
if you install Office 2011 *first*, the Verdana fonts get put into /Library/Fonts/Microsoft
But After Effects CS6 can not find them (they have to be put back into /Library/Fonts)
Are we fooling ourselves that there might be a fix for any CS6 applications at this point? I'm surprised this bug wasn't squashed at some point...
