    Hi.

    This is another issue that is giving me trouble in FCP 6.0

    When I use text in FCP, I can’t see all the fonts that are installed on the mac.I want a specific font that I have installed recently.

    I can see that font in fontbook but its not there in FCP.

    I think that FC needs the fonts installed in main/Library/Fonts.
    Probably that one is somewhere else.
    BTW, make your self a favor and update FC.
    The FC 6.0 version has been probably the buggiest one in the story of the application.
    Cheers,

    What kind of Font is it?
    Postscript? OpenType? TrueType?

    Have you tried the included Boris Title 3D or just the crappy default titler?

    It’s Trutype.
    I want it to be available in Typewriter Text. So can’t use Boris. That system doesn’t have any other 3rd party plugins also.

    Not all Font types are supported in FCP. Especially FCP text editor. Use Live Type, Motion or Boris Title 3D for text.

    But…

    you DO have typwriter like option in Boris Title 3D; I believe it is called type on or something, down by the lower third of the menu…

    Motion has this too. Only better.
