Correct answer Eric Dumas

This usually indicates that illustrator cannot find the font you are using.

Sometimes, the font does not load properly and you need to restart, sometimes it gets confused or a font is not activated (if you have a font management software or it is a cloud font).

From the Type menu, there is:

  • Resolve missing fonts...
  • Find/Replace fonts...

they can help locate the source of your issue.
