232987 2004-04-29 12:22:00 When I try to open a 'Business Card' Template in PageMaker 7.0, the "PANose Font Matching Results" indicated that there are missing fonts - different template has different missing fonts. Accepting the 'Substituted font' and click OK to create publication produces unreadable screen.

What is this "PANose Font Matching Result"? Any solution to this?

Cheers

232988 2004-04-29 22:39:00 I'm pretty sure it means you don't have the font used in that particular template on your PC. Sometimes if another font is substituted it can result in a messy looking layout. You can download fonts from the web - just put them in your fonts folder c:/windows/fonts. Do a Google search.

232989 2004-04-29 22:44:00 Another thing you could try is, instead of accepting the substituted font, select one from the dropdown list. For instance, if the missing font is Garamond Bold, choose Garamond as a substitute, or another font with a similar size/weight. You should then be able to get a reasonably close match to the original template. Of course, if you're not happy you can keep substituting fonts to your heart's content from within the publication itself. karent (5222)
232990 2004-04-29 23:26:00 Thanks, karent.

I check the installation CD and found all those fonts there but they are not installed in the Adobe Pagemaker folder. Or maybe, they are installed somewhere else?

Or, shall I re install PageMaker?

232991 2004-04-29 23:53:00 Looks like all the fonts have not been installed as I couldn't find any FONTs folder in PageMaker. How do I install those fonts from the Installation CD? Can I just create a folder in PageMaker and copy all those fonts to this folder? bk T (215)
232992 2004-04-30 00:17:00 Hi again. Have a look at this (www.adobe.com) before you resort to a reinstall. karent (5222)
232993 2004-04-30 02:56:00 Thanks for the link, karent. Problem resolved.
