I made changes to an existing font and renamed it. I saved this font in a folder. If I open the font in the folder it appears to be empty. When I open the font with fontcreater it opens. I can make and save changes and it always saves my changes. I can never see the font outside of foncreator. I install the font and it tells me that it has done it successfully but it is never there. I used to do this with the 30 day free trial and had no problems. Since I have purchased the professional versions of font creator and maintype I cannot use the font outside of these programs although it is saving the work that I am doing. Someone please help. Thank you Craig
Maybe you have installed an earlier version of your font and Windows is still showing that one. Usually a reboot does magic because your system will then build a fresh system font table.
If that doesn’t help, do take a look at the font through MainType. It might help locate the problem (e.g. the font is installed into an unexpected folder).
Do let us know your results.
Rebooting the computer worked. It was odd because when I clicked on the font it came up as a blank page but when I opened it with fontcreator it would be there. After rebooting my font shows up and it works in word. Thank You.
