In the pink

[Energetic_friend4353]

Recently my CS6 InDesign had pink around all the text in my newsletter. The font choices Regular, Italic, Bold, Bold Italic are in wrong order and have [brackets around them.]  Whole page is pink, but i can still read the black fonts. It prints out without the pink, and a PDF isn't affected, but it's tough to see through all that as I'm composing or cutting-and-pasting.  Hellllppp!!!!                                             Bill D.

Hey Bill,

What typeface is this related to?

Pink hinting means a font is no longer available/installed on your computer.

What version of windows OS are you running?

Did you open a really old file?

Hi @Energetic_friend4353 , If a font is enclosed in brackets in the font menu, it is missing:

And the font typeface might be Times New Roman in the current patch of windows 11. Others report this font is missing after a KB5068861 patch around November 11, 2025. Uninstalling Microsoft Security Update KB5068861 reportedly (allegedly) restored the use of that system font.
