HampMac Posted June 10, 2004 Share Posted June 10, 2004 Hi, I found a free barcode font from: Free 3 of 9 Barcode (free3of9.ttf) Created By: Matthew Welch Web Address: http://www.squaregear.net/fonts/ I've installed the font in my System Font Folder. When I am in FileMaker, AppleWorks or TextEdit the font doesn't even show up these app's font list. However, when I am in Illustrator the font shows up in the list, but when I type, nothing shows up on the screen. The kicker is that when I am in Photoshop the font is in the font list and it displays correctly when I type on the screen. I am using all Mac OS X apps, and I can't figure out what the heck is going on. Any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jasonwood Posted June 28, 2004 Share Posted June 28, 2004 that's wild... I don't even thing you're supposed to be able to get into the system font folder. Try the system library/font folder, or your user library/font folder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
butchm Posted September 18, 2004 Share Posted September 18, 2004 I'm getting the same results when I install that font in Mac OS X. I've tried installing in the Library/Fonts folder and User/Library/Fonts folder as well. The font does show up in TextEdit and other programs, and works fine with FileMaker for Windows, so I'm wondering if this is a system issue or a Mac OS X issue. Any ideas, anyone?

stanley Posted September 20, 2004 Share Posted September 20, 2004 Butchm: Is the font at issue Free3of9, as with HampMac? I use 3of9 (not the free one - I can't recall where I got it from) and it works fine. Free3of9 doesn't work for me either. Also, it only weighs in at 8KB, whereas the regular 3of9 is 24KB. I have to wonder if there's not something wrong with the Free3of9 file. -Stanley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
