![]() ![]() You've already done all of the easier steps that normally work, and you're still not seeing fonts that are active. All, of course, just means all fonts collectively in the three main Fonts folders (System, Library, user account). It doesn't list non-English language fonts such as Kohinoor or Myanmar MN. The "English" set in Font Book is rather self explanatory. It won't hurt anything to try, but from what you describe, it may not change anything, either. But then, I also never use Font Book or Mail (both removed from the drive).īut that does make the idea of reinstalling OS seem rather pointless. I used High Sierra well into Mojave's release (it was too much for an old 2010 Mac Pro, even with an upgraded video card installed). Hmm, it's really strange to me you're having the same issue on two entirely different Macs. And voila, now being considered a third party font, it appears everywhere, just like it already should! I opened Apple Chancery in FontLab IV and did nothing but save it back out as a. fontinfo files? All they do is cause unnecessary problems.Ĭan you get around it? Yes, if you have a font editor and do nothing but generate a new, unique font file. All of a sudden, that font started working everywhere! They also updated Iowan Old Style further back (don't recall which OS that happened in), but then that font suddenly stopped working and has been broken since. In the 10.13.4 update, Charter was updated, and I presume also its matching support files. How do these buried files figure in? Charter used to be in the list of OS supplied fonts that wouldn't work. Which makes the entire idea of checking them in the first place entirely pointless. Third party apps can still use them, though. If the checksum (or whatever method Apple is using) doesn't match the info of these files, the fonts won't appear in Apple's apps. That's my assumption anyway since this whole issue with "ghost" fonts started with the introduction of SIP. ![]() While they've been included with the Mac OS for a long time, these dumb things now appear to be tied to SIP and have something to do with protecting the system from hacked versions of the fonts. System/Library/Frameworks/amework/Versions/A/įrameworks/ATS.framework/Versions/A/Resources/FontInfo/ Apple dumps a whole bunch of paired files onto the drive that go with each font installed by the OS. It all goes back to where Seravek and the other fonts I mentioned earlier won't show up in Apple's own apps. Turns outs this is a problem Apple themselves have created. glyphs 3, FontForge, COLRv1, and Python 3.Just because I was on a bit of a roll, I dug a little deeper.
