Wrong Names

Post by Dick Pape »

To all Font Creator Users:

Be thorough in your work. If you are going to start with an already finished font, make sure you change the names completely.

This one comes to us as "Times New Roman" which it clearly isn't (all the way). Of course it overlays valid Times New Roman fonts.

Use the FontCreator Autonaming button to make sure it's been done correctly.

Hi there,

I have downloaded Font Creator - changed the name of my font - sent it to another computer to install and it installs as the previous name. As far as I can see I have entered everything correctly with the new name in place of the old but it saves as the wrong name. I need the font as a different name so an old document will recognize the font when i open it in INDesign. Any help would be much appreciated. Many thanks.
