installed font missing
InDesign 13.0.1 on macOS 10.12.6
One installed font from a family of 6 suddenly started showing as not found. Frutiger LT Pro 67 Bold Condensed was correctly showing, now not.
I have re-installed InDesign twice, reinstalled the font, and rebooted several times. Font is correctly showing still in Illustrator and Photoshop.
This is impacting client files and while I have a workaround, I am concerned the problem will occur with other fonts where I don't have a viable solution. (I have another foundry version of that particular font.)
Screen shots attached.
many thanks

Stylistic Sets do not work alongside feature variations
Hi there! There seems to be a bug when applying OpenType Stylistic Sets to fonts that have feature variations. This has occurred with multiple fonts produced by me and colleagues, so I have made a simplified test font that you can use to duplicate the issue.

font
I just downloaded version 14.0.3, working on Mac Sierra v. 10.14.6. I can no longer click in the font size box and change point size. In previous versions I could create font sizes such as 11.5, 12.5, etc., but now when I click in the font size box, it turns white and does not allow me to enter a number.

fontproblem – strange ligatures – invisible font
Hi there
In InDesign CC23 we have the problem that we sometimes have some issues with ligatures. We have the font Minion Pro activates in the Library. and somehow have the problem, that the ligatures appear to be a completely different character, see the screenshot.
the problem could be resolved by deleting the Minion Font from the application folder > Ressources > Required > Fonts. the Ligatures changed back to the correct character. Or i deactivate the minion regular in the finder. But i need the font for other apps as well, so i need to activate the regular …4 votes -

Change font without changing style
Assume that I have selected some text which contains instances of bold, italic, or other "styles" (not INDD "styles," but variations of a typeface within a specific font family).
In previous versions of InDesign, I used to be able to change the typeface of the selected text, and maintain all instances of bold, italic, etc. In newer versions of InDesign, this is only possible when I navigate to the new font family by scrolling through the menu; when I search for a font family, I am presented with only the specific members of the family, not the family itself. This…

60 Noto (foreign) fonts showing up in middle of drop down font listing.
I have recently upgraded to Adobe CC 2020, and also upgraded to Mac OS Catalina. when I open my font drop down menu I expect to see all of the 'foreign' (non english) fonts at the bottom of the list. Instead, there is a font 'Noto' with 60 font families in the menu. I've checked in 'Font Book' on my mac, and that font is NOT listed as an 'english' font, so I assume it SHOULD go to the bottom of the menu. These fonts show up in the middle of font listing of other CC…

Find ‘Book’ font style bug
In InDesign 2021 (the latest version both on Mac and Windows), I add a text frame and fill it with placeholder text which is set, by default, to Minion Pro - Regular.
Then I go to the find-change dialog box and set 'find format > basic character format > font style' to Book.
And guess what happens when I hit the ‘find next’ button? It selects all the ‘regular text. (The document has no text with the 'book' font style applied!)
Selecting another style — e.g. Bold, Italic, etc. — results, as expected, in the 'cannot find match' alert.

Font Weight Not Changing
In the Character panel often it is not possible to change a font weight from Regular to Bold for example. I have to go in the font menu and select the font specifically.
Also, in the character panel the menu to change weights does not change anymore when I select a different font. For example: Metropilis Black becomes Calibri Black (which does not exist).
Clearing caches and trashing preferences does not help.

Font not appearing
A font I have installed and previously been able to select in InDesign is now not showing for me on any new document I create. I have updated InDesign and double checked the font (it shows in all other programs) but the only way I can get the font to appear in InDesign is to copy text from another file that has my font in which is not really ideal.
The font is Raleway.1 vote
