Fonts don't appear , not sorted on alfabet and chinese characters

bijouz Jan 26, 2014 10:51 PM

I do have 600... fonts in the system but only a fraction appear in photoshop.

Alot of fonts are also not sorted on alfabet and appear down the list , while starting with an A, B...

Those ones have chinese charcters previews.

I have tried everything, clearing the fonts cache, deleting it...etc... but the problem remains.

I also did a font test with the script stated in the adobe troubleshooting and that passed with no problems

The number of fonts installed: 691

The number of fonts tested: 691

The number of fonts passed: 691

The number of fonts failed: 0

All the fonts do appear in other applications

Please help!

Fonts in Photoshop are sorted by script/language, then alphabetically.
So the Roman/English fonts will appear first, then the ones with other scripts.

So it sounds like the fonts are appearing, where they should - further down the list with the other fonts using the same script/language.

Yes, but photoshop shows only 150... fonts while I have 600 installed.
I choose the font to use with a plugin for photoshop that installs as an extension called diskfont
because that's alot faster then goin' down the row of the font list in the typetool in cc
So the problem I constantly have is that diskfont generates a list with all the different fonts
so I can easily choose the font I wanna use with the certain text
All the fonts for instance that are seen in the picture are not available in the cc font list
they are available in other programs, ( word, other graphic programs etc...) just not in cc
But when I look for a font that shows in diskfont , it's nowhere to find in cc!

And goin' down the list, I only find a fraction of the fonts in the cc list that diskfont shows.
While when I do a font test with the script, they all pass but they are not seen in the list.

The third party plugin may be part of the problem.
Or your OS font cache may be corrupt, causing fonts not to be listed.

You didn't say what version of windows your using, but the first six fonts on the diskfont list are listed in photoshop as Adobe Caslon Pro
and the six font styles are in the dropdown to the right of the font list in photoshop.

I'm using windows 8 64bit.
The adobe caslon pro is nowhere to be found in my cc type list, as many many others.
I'ts really strange , since they all pass with the test script that is provided by adobe in the troubleshooting.

thx for your reply

regards
