Editing Composite Font

Hi there, 

 

I have a composite font in my InDesign file received from a vendor. It is a Japanese font + a Roman font. I

would like to change the Roman font to another option.

 

Example:

Current composite font in the document: MS Gothic + Calibri Bold

Want to change to: MS Gothic + Arial Bold

 

May I know how can I do that? I can create composite fonts in .ai, but how can I do so with InDesign?

 

Thanks!

Hi Uwe Laubender,

 

I didn't install WorldTools Pro i am using English Arabic inDesign 2020. I think Composite Fonts feature won't be available in German InDesign 2020.

Hi datap,

do you have WorldTools Pro installed?

Menu Composite Fonts… is not available with my plain German InDesign 2020.

    Thanks so much both! datap6156868, I installed the Japanese version and now the Composite Font option popped up. I'm so grateful for the tip, was googling so much and didn't find any answers. Thank you again!
