    Hunting Down Bad Fonts (Mac, Media Composer)

    Posted by Ervin Tia on May 30, 2009 at 1:15 am

    Hello,

    This may sound so easy but I cannot seem to find a way to find my recently installed fonts that messed-up my Avid MC.

    I’m using a MacPro as an Avid Media Composer workstation. We needed to install several foreign fonts but for some reason, it conflicted with Avid.

    I tried but I cannot remember and cannot sort out the fonts by installation date.

    Any ideas?

    Thank you.

    I had this problem once too…. absolutely killed my Mac until I figured it out. It was an Arabic font that did it for me, which sucked because I had a Middle Eastern airline as a client at the time. I’d suggest removing them all (except the system fonts) and add in a bunch at a time until you isolate which one(s) are the problem fonts.
