    Thanks


    Zehnder, looking at your screenshot, HelveticaNeue LT Pro is showing up in Photoshop. 6th font from the one you've highlighted in the screenshot.

    Choose that first. Then, to its right, where it shows 'Regular', you'll be able to change it to Roman, Bold, Black, Italic, etc...

    Photoshop lists all fonts that are present in 'Fonts' folder in Windows.

    If PS is not listing some fonts:

    • Either those fonts are not located in 'Fonts' folders (Windows keeps it in a secret statsh as they're proprietary to Windows 7)
    • One or more of those fonts are corrupt. Adobe doesn't list corrupt fonts. In fact, often times Photoshop hangs when you have one or more corrupt/ invalid font registries on your system. Scan for corrupt fonts and remove them

    Can you post the 'fonts' that are 'missing', so we can see if they have any associated known issues with Photoshop?
