Hi!. Please help, I get an error message saying that the font type is not available when I highlight the text and change the font type to Frutiger 45. I deleted and install the font "Frutiger Light" in system folder (C:\Windows\Fonts) still get the same error. I appreciate your help. Thanks.
 
This can be a bit tricky.

First check you "compose to printer" is correct - that is, it's the actual printer you're going to use or it's a postscript printer, such as Distiller or AdobePDF.

Secondly, search your computer for files using the string "Adobefnt*.lst" (without the " delimiters). Delte them all. They will be re-created next time you laod up the associated application.
