    InDesign won't recognize Arial. I have it turned on via Suitcase AND Font Book!?

      Had an issue with Suitcase about an hour ago and had to reboot and dink around with getting rid of the FMCore. Then Suitcase started working again. I go into InDesign and open a document and "Arial OTC" is missing. So I go to suitcase and Arial is like partially turned on. I activate it full and go back to InDesign and still no arial AT ALL. I deactivate Arial and then turn it back on. Still no Arial.

       

      I search the computer for a version of Arial that has the Regular, Italic, Bold and Bold Italic. I open it up and click "Install Font" which should turn it on via Fontbook. I go to User area of Fontbook and see Arial and it shows that it's on. I click on the Computer area to show all the "Computer" fonts and Arial is shown as dupes. I turn all of it on and I end up with "Arial Arabic" or something.

       

      At that point, I get Arial Arabic and then regular Arial Italic, Bold and Bold Italic

       

      I keep having problems with arial. Any thoughts? And no, switching everything to Helvetica is not an option at this point.
