Question

Missing Font Dialog box is not appearing

Hi There,

Adobe Illustrator 2022 is installed both in my Office PC and Home PC. Although I can see "Missing font Dialog Box" from my Office PC but it is not showing in my Home PC for a ai file which font(s) are missing. I can that there is an option "Don't show on document open" in this warning/dialog box and perhaps I have clicked on this option in my Home PC:

But I can't figure out an option to re-enable this option so that this dialog box can be seen with missing font information in my Home PC.

 

Anyone know how to enable the Missing Font Dialog Box again (for illustrator 2022)?

Hello! I'm having this same issue at work. I'm on a Mac & all of production is on PCs... the font dialogue box is no longer highlighting the missing fonts as pink... so when we're producing signs, the font is automatically switching to Myriad Pro & not alterting the user, causing the signs to use the incorrect font. The text is highlighted pink on mine & another Mac using an older Illustrator ('23 & '21). Has anyone found a solution to this issue?

Did not work! I have to open the Missing Font dialog box from the Type>Resolve Missing Fonts manually to check if there is any missing font in the ai file. Previously it was opened automatically during opening the ai file.

I'm having the same issue in Photoshop. I get a dialogue box that asks if I want to resolve the issue, but I don't get the resolve missing fonts box that displays the names of the fonts. When I click on Type/Manage Missing Fonts, nothing happens. Perhaps a bug with the new update?
