Question

Hi all,

I have encountered a problem where the font of the number cannot be changed after I downloaded a new font and used it. The font, I mean the alphabet is working, but the number cannot be changed and it will automatically change to a font style that I don't want it to be.

May I know what the problem is? Thanks for the help!!

    Also, worth pointing out – With websites like dafont etc. They will offer the font for free but sometimes will miss characters or numbers out and include that into a paid for version.

    Just looking at the page on Dafont and as expected, you can purchase the full font (With numbers) here;

    • Is this a purchased font or one downloaded from Adobe Typeset? Is it a free font?
    • Can you post a picture of the font in your Photoshop window?
    • What version of Photoshop are you using?
    • Do you need to use this font or can you delete the font layer and try it again with another font?

    We can help you more effectively with a little bit more information!

    Hi Michelle,

    The font I am using is downloaded from a website called dafont. My photoshop version is CS6.

    I am trying to look for handwritten script font. Does Adobe Typeset provide this kind of font?

    Thank you!

    Good morning!

    Thanks for the info! It looks like from other posts that this is probably an issue with the font and not necessarily with Photoshop. That's a good thing! There are a number of sites that you can get handwritten fonts. Along with the great suggestions noted above, there is a website called "Mighty Deals" -- Deals for Designers and Developers | MightyDeals.com  that has some good specials on fonts and has a number of script or hand written styles.

    A second option is myfonts.com -- https://www.myfonts.com/   which has always been a good place to find all different kinds of fonts.

    Pixel Surplus sends out an email every week with a link to get a free font that you can download--you can sign up for it on their website.

    Let us know if this fixes the problem!

    Michelle

    Hi Joon!

    Where did you download this font from?

    Does this font come with "Numbers"? Some fonts do not come with Numbers designed in them.

    You can find out by going into the Glyphs panel and choosing your font from the list. In the Glyphs panel you will be able to see all of the characters available to you.

    Here is a screenshot, I hope you find this helpful

    Hi Sebastian!

    I downloaded the font from a website called dafont. I don't think so it comes with number as after installation and using it, there is no problem with the alphabet. Once I type the digit, the text will automatically change to another font that I don't want.

    Thanks for your information about the "Glyphs". I am using CS6 version and I could not find the tool that you mentioned.

    Regards,

    Joon Hoe
