"Fonts missing" error message

I bought a template that came with custom fonts that I installed on my computer. When I opened it in Photoshop cc I got this error message: "some fonts used in this document are missing" (but it doesn't say which ones--uggghhh!!!). I checked my computer fonts again and they are all there, so I'm not sure what is causing this error message to appear.

    It appears from the error icon in the layer that one of the fonts called "playlist script" did not install correctly. I reinstalled it and everything is loading fine now.

    What fonts do you have installed and is it through a 3rd party plug in or anything like that?

    They were sent by the designer of the template that I purchased. Here they are:

    Could you please post a screenshot with an affected Type Layer selected and the pertinent Panels (Layers, Character, Options Bar, …) visible?

    Which fonts does Photoshop claim are missing and are they available in Photoshop’s Character Panel when you create a new Type Layer?

    In which other applications are they available?

    Have you restarted Photoshop yet?

    Here is a screenshot of the missing fonts. They appear to be the "script" headlines.
