For a number of very good reasons (which I won't get into now), you should migrate all Type 1 font usage to equivalent OpenType fonts.Īlso note that with changes in the Windows font installation and handling in recent years, simply copy fonts between systems. The OpenType Myriad Pro Regular font is effectively equivalent to the Type 1 Myriad Roman font and the OpenType Myriad Pro Bold Italic font is effectively the equivalent to the Type 1 Myriad Bold Italic font. They are old Type 1 fonts that possibly were installed automatically by older versions of Adobe Creative Suite programs (particularly Illustrator) a number of years back. Myriad Roman and Myriad Bold Italic are absolutely not fonts that are part of the Myriad Pro font family. I'm not really looking for a fix at this point, I did want to describe the problem in case someone else experienced the same issues. Maybe it't time to go back to the days of old and stick with Helvetica and Times for everything. I'm left with only 9 fonts in that family on the 2nd machine and have checked each font and none match the actual desciption of the font when opened with Windows Font Viewer. Windows states that the font exists but clearly it does not. I have 10 Myriad Pro fonts on the first machine and when I try to copy them over to the 2nd, one font does not get installed. It appears as though windows is confusing fonts. The closer I look the more it looks like Windows 10 issue, but I cannot be sure. Nothing other than Windows and application updates has been done to this machine. It's clearly something with machine #2 because when I open InDesign documents from a year ago, the same fonts are missing. I can copy the fonts although some must be missing (based on the count). I have attempted to copy the entire font library from the first machine. This has been working without issues for years. When I open the same document on the 2nd machine I get missing fonts. The first machine opens and modifies files with no problem. I'm having a similar problem after a recent update.
