MainType Doesn't Synchronize Newly Added Font Folder
Posted: Wed Apr 18, 2018 6:51 pm
I'm running Windows 10 64 bit, build 1709, MainType Pro Edition 8.0.0.1135 64bit
I recently downloaded the San Francisco Compact and Pro fonts from the Apple Developers site. I made two separate folders for them on my machine and then added both folders to MainType. MT went through the motions of synchronizing both, but it only displays the Compact font in the Groups panel, but not the Pro.
The Pro fonts are not corrupt. They display a thumbnail in Windows Explorer and Adobe Bridge CC 2018. I can double click any of them to generate a preview window and even manually install it to the C:\windows\fonts. However, after manually installing, when I preview it in the MT View panel, the State icon is red. I launched MS Word to see if it shows up in the Font list, which it does and I can apply it to text in Word.
Any ideas why MY won't display the Pro font folder in Groups?
