Alert missing fonts

Hi all

FYI., new to Illustrator & illustrator of script.

Request:

Need alert, if the illustrator document with lack of fonts.

In Indesign, we should use the code below:

Missing_Font();
function Missing_Font()
{
    var myUsedFonts = app.activeDocument.fonts;
    for (var i = 0; i < myUsedFonts.length; i++) {
    if (myUsedFonts[i].status != "1718831470")
    {
        alert("Please Fix Missing Font")
        exit(0);
        }
    }
}

Thanks in advance

However, we can predefine and save textFonts. When you need to check the fonts, read and compare the list fonts Documents.

    Hello

    I modified line 13 in your code, that it will work and then added the code for missing fonts also. Try this

    If (app.documents.length! = 0)

    {

    var MY_DOC = app.activeDocument;

    myLinks var = MY_DOC.links;

    var thePageNames = new Array();

    for (var j = 0; j)<= (mylinks.length="" -="" 1);="">

    {

    If (myLinks [j] .status == LinkStatus.LINK_MISSING: myLinks [i] .status == LinkStatus.LINK_OUT_OF_DATE == true) {}

    Try

    {

    myLinks [j].parent.parentPage.documentOffset = thePageName;

    }

    catch (e)

    {

    continue; should be on the editing table so ignore

    }

    thePageNames [thePageName] = 1

    }

    }

    If (thePageNames.length! = 0)

    {

    var s = "";

    i in thePageNames

    {

    s = s + app.documents [0] .pages [Number (i) - 1] .name + ",";

    }

    s = s.substring (0, s.length - 2);

    If (! confirm ("missing or not updated links in the document - continue?"))

    Exit();

    If (fun_FontMissing)

    If (! confirm ("missing fonts in the document - continue?" ""))

    Exit();

    }

    }

    function fun_FontMissing()

    {

    var isFontMis = false;

    try {}

    for (var i = 0; i)<>

    I found this online earlier and use it regularly. missingItem is the variable too assign the missing font, do with it as you wish.

    var missingItem = "\n".

    var usedFonts = document.fonts;

    for (var i = 0; i)< usedfonts.length;="">

    If (usedFonts [i] .status! = FontStatus.INSTALLED) {}

    missingItem += "\n" + usedFonts [i] .fontFamily;

  • Delete the "Missing fonts" dialog box during the execution of JavaScript

    Hello

    I develop a script (in JavaScript) which allows to convert all the InDesign files in a directory specified for PDF files. I'm running into a problem when I run the script because all InDesign files have missing links / fonts.  Therefore, a "Missing fonts" dialog box opens after each InDesign file opens.  I believe that because this dialog box is open, I get the error:

    "cannot process the request because a modal dialog box or the alert is active.

    Again, I'm assuming that my script does not work because the dialog box open "missing fonts.

    Is it possible to remove all the instructions of the user?  I've read some things about the levels of user interaction, however I have not found a way to settle this with JavaScript.

    I'd appreciate any help.

    Thank you!

    Hey!

    Try this:

    app.scriptPreferences.userInteractionLevel = UserInteractionLevels.NEVER_INTERACT;
    

    and on the finish to put this:

    app.scriptPreferences.userInteractionLevel = UserInteractionLevels.INTERACT_WITH_ALL;

    Method 1:

    You can try to remove the update from Windows update and check.

    Step 2:

    You can try to perform a system restore to a point of restoration before the update was installed.

  • I discovered that I have several missing fonts

    Hello. Can someone help me, please? I have Windows 7 and Office 2007. I discovered that I have several missing fonts - they disappeared without warning. In particular, Miss me San Gil I use often and Helvetica. I reinstalled W7 and Office, but the problem persists. It's extremely frustrating. Can Microsoft, you please help and provide some sort of file that I can download and reinstall my missing fonts? Anyone else with ideas?

    Thank you

    It has nothing to do with Windows 7, not to mention the police. Windows does not remove fonts that already exist (unless you let the format to install the player, but then you go to reinstall all your applications in any case), or only prevents future installation of all the fonts from another source.

    I don't know why you couldn't get Gill from Office 2007. There are several different editions of Office 2007, and the webpage, I quoted said that fonts comes with Office 2007 Premium and simply "Office 2007" which I guess means Office 2007 Standard. Maybe if you have an other editions, such as home & student, the police is not included, but I do not have these editions to check out them. Copy the files from the old computer fonts work always, however.

    Naturally, I hit 'find fonts... '. "and then this prompt appears. In general, you can see what the missing fonts and then replacement. Helvetica is not listed here, as it does in the first prompt.

    I tried to copy and paste the drawing on a new file (even individually chosen each element), but that no longer works. He always says missing fonts when you open the program.

    Someone has an idea? Thanks in advance.

    There must be some sort of a block of text not used in your file. If you use the outline instead of Preview is there anything strange rectangle which could be a unused TF? You could also select all and use the Document Info Panel to see how many TFs are listed.

  • How to get rid of pink highlights on missing fonts?

    Hi, take a look at this screenshot.  See how the text is highlighted in pink?

    http://imgur.com/9Udspvl

    I worked on this document, which was started by another developer, and I have all the right fonts.  I know.  InDesign has replaced all the missing fonts by something similar, and it's fine for my needs.  Then, I was working on the doc for two days, with missing fonts, and everything was fine, roses only highlights.  Then somehow (I don't know what I did to trigger it) all missing fonts becomes highlighted in pink.  What I've done and how I put back it?  I don't want the missing fonts highlighted in pink.  They were not like this before, even if the fonts were still missing.

    Another thing about this document view has changed as the rose also, appear.  At first, when I got a picture or text that ran out of the page, it was not displayed.  The finished page where it ends, and the extra part of the image that would be cut has not been demonstrated.  Now it shows images that extends off the page.  You can see in the same screenshot above.  This setting affects this and how do I put back it?

    I hope this makes sense.  Thanks for any help.

  • Missing fonts for the active user interface

    I downloaded a user interface of the market of assets of the CC.

    When I open it in Photoshop, it was a notice of missing fonts.

    The police is Ubuntu. TypeKit has this font, but I can't download it as a font of regular funds because it is Web only.

    How can I work with the examples in the user interface if Ubuntu is missing?

    Hi Sandee,

    If you need a font that is not available for synchronization of Typekit (or does not part of the library of Typekit at all), you can usually buy a license of the Foundry or one of their resellers.

    The Ubuntu family is available as a free download on their site:

  • Missing fonts with the publication on a server

    Why I get these symbols a €< at the beginning of my text on the edge when I publish it to a server? I know this usually means missing fonts. But I use Arial, everything seems fine in preview, and when I publish on our network. I thank in advance.

    Fonts are rendered differently in each browser and also according to the resolution of the screen. You must extend your text box even more in the UI, so it does not happen.

    For the strange characters, I suggest that you try another font and see if you still have the problem. It may be a problem with the police in particular.
