For some unknown reason, I lost a custom font that I had used in an Indesign document. It was available for 2 years, but now it is missing!

 

I need to know 2 things:

1. What is the name of this custom font (see image below)?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

2. What could cause it to go missing?

Is the font in a document fonts folder? That might cause an issue opening in a new version of InDesign until you save it and close it then reopen it in 2025.

Ah! Re-opeing it after saving it may be the solution.

Check first two pages of the forum - enormous number of posts with problems related to ID 2025. 

 

If you've old INDD files that used font you are looking for - you should get a warning about this font. 

 

It's possible that it is still somewhere on your drive.
