Maybe you'll provide us the source for the download of this font?Windows 8.1I have installed it to Windows/Fonts and it shows up in Inkscape. md1 Posts: 57 Joined: Fri Jun 24, 2011 4:18 pm Re: Technicbold font Postby md1 » Mon Mar 16, 2015 1:52 pm rich2005 Posts: 55 Joined: Fri Mar 30, 2012 9:06 pm Re: Technicbold font Postby rich2005 » Mon Mar 16, 2015 11:48 pm Not ubuntu, this in PClinuxOS KDE. Inkscape 0.91screenshots is something a bit strange with the font, as seen on the download page with non-displaying charachters but..Have you tried putting the font in your (hidden) home folder ~/.fonts. If you do not have one, make one.Inkscape a bit strange as well, I usually have to refresh the fonts drop down to see the full list of fonts. That used to happen with the previous version as well. It is working though. tylerdurden Posts: 2344 Joined: Sun Apr 14, 2013 12:04 pm Location: Michigan, USA Re: Technicbold font Postby tylerdurden » Tue Mar 17, 2015 12:25 am rich2005 wrote:Inkscape a bit strange as well, I usually have to

I've a multi level list defined in Word 2013.It's level 4 is corrupted and looks strange (all other levels are fine): (it should be "1.1. level 4 list item", but "1.1." is just masked)In "define new multilevel list" window it's sample is already strange, it just shows as a small line at the left-top corner of the text box (see text box left from "font"), while it's sample in the list looks fine: Opening "font" properties from "define new multilevel list" window I can see that it has font size 0. However, even after fixing font size (and also re-selecting all values just to be sure), I can't approve changes by pressing OK, neither go to advanced tab as I'm getting this error message: I can close the window only by pressing Cancel. As it's a multilevel list, I can't easily select part of it, format as needed, then change the style to match formatting.I've also tried with a macro:Font.reset didn't helpFont.Size is 0; .Position, .Scaling & .Spacing are all 9999999, but setting them to a valid value (12, 0, 100, 1 respectively) doesn't do anything at all (no error message, but also no improvement).How can I fix this font without recreating the whole list style?

I have received a number of multipage (150 pg+) PDF docments from a client that will require extensive revision. I have discovered that there is a great amount of type in these documents that is custom encoded, and have names unusual such as MSTT31c750 (Embedded Subset) Type 1 Encoding: Custom. A LOT of them, like 80 instances. All the usual trick to import ot extract text, even using the otherwise excellent Marzware PDFMarz utility produces "Missing Fonts" for these.This is where it gets STRANGE. Attemps to replace with a common font such as Myriad, Arial, or Helvetica produces gibberish text, as is the "default" font. Even copy pasting the text or saving as a WORD or TXT file produces gibberish - even pasting into a text editor. VERY Strange, and frustrating. The fairly extreme soultuon of exporting a page as a image file, creating a new PDF of the page and running OCR produces copy that would require extemsive manual correction.The orginating application seems to be Adobe Pagemaker 6.52 / Distiller for WIndows 4.0The best guess I have is this is some sort of font encoding DRM/Copy Protection scheme, or posibly some sort of variable typeface with non-standard encoding based on the "font names". What's really crazy is that these LOOK like fairly common ordinary fonts... But I need to be able to either edit or extract this copy for the client's revisions. I do relaize that having an editor manually retype the enitre document may be the eventual - but time consuming and therefore costly - solution.Anyone seen anything like this?
