Subject:Re: Missing Fonts in Frame From:Jacque Foreman <foremangraphics -at- juno -dot- com> To:ddorbin -at- yahoo -dot- com Date:Thu, 21 May 2009 15:39:27 -0700
Dave -
I don't use Frame, but I do use PageMaker 6.5. I often get the "Missing
Font" message because Adobe Font Manager has decided to drop it for one
reason or another, even if ippears to be there. The only solution that
has worked is to delete the font and then re-install it. Just a
suggestion. This drives me mad. I'm working on a PC with XP and would
like a different font manager.
Hope this might shed some light on the situation.
Happiness, joy & laughter
