Font Problem

Hi boys,

i'm using jaguar iceman's theme and i'd like to apply to some elements (like menus, etc) the Lucida Grande Bold font. The font it's correctly installed in my system, but when i try to select it from the font list in any app or windows dialog, it doesn't appear, so I can use it.

Does anyone have the solution? is there someone with the same problem?

MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL

Bye

It's strange! :unsure:

If you have this problem, How do you know the font is correctly install? :huh:

Maybe you could use some font administrator for verify lucida Grande TTF is correctly installed. Try adobe type manager, I use it and I haven't problems.

I've found that I often have to reboot after installing a font. If you haven't rebooted since installing it that may be your problem.

Hi,

the problem is that in example, I can use the font with ObjectDock and also in Photoshop 7, but not with the rest of apps...

Thanks, I'll try to check if the font is correctly installed, but if someone have something else to recommend....

Do you have both Lucida Grande.ttf and Lucida Grande Bold.ttf installed?

The Lucida Grande Bold gets used when you select Lucida Grande and then choose the Bold format command. :D

For fonts that don't have a corresponding Bold companion, the OS fakes the bold effect. The same is true for Italics. :P
