Re: MainType not finding new fonts

Re: MainType not finding new fonts

Are these folders set to "sync"? I prefer not to set my fonts folder to "sync" and use the manual refresh font folders option to add new fonts to the MainType database. I've tried both automatic and manual refreshes, as well as just clicking the "sync" button; nothing ...
