PageMaker 7.0 Font Problem

[Lucky027]

Hello everyone,

I have a problem with PageMaker 7.0, naturally, hence the title.

All of the machines here, Macs, with OS 9.2.1 installed, on all of them, were completely ereased and reinstalled in segments.

When PageMaker 7.0 was installed on the (newly-formatted) computer, the default fonts were put on there. Then, fonts were installed on there that were needed, Rockwell, for example. A CD of fonts was installed and Rockwell became visible on the font list and in the text of PageMaker. When we go to print, it does not allow us to print in Rockwell. However, in Word (or any other application at that) allows us to print in Rockwell.

Does anybody have any ideas that could help me out? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks much,

How were the fonts installed? Font files should be dragged onto the System folder, not the Font folder. The OS will direct them into the Fonts folder automatically if dragged onto the System folder.

Did you use a font management utility?

Try finding and deleting 'adobefnt.lst' to rebuild the Adobe Font List index.

It appears screen fonts were installed but the printer fonts were not - - or they are conflicting with other postscript fonts of the same name.

Thanks. I'll give that a shot and post the results.
