Hi!

I always download fonts and i'm able to use them in power point or keynote.

However, today I downloaded one, it's TrueType, I can use it on keynote but not on power point :confused:

Here's what my Font Book looks

It's the on highlited and it has a dot on the right.

I already copied and pasted it on all the fonts folders on my mac.

Any help?
 
Did you try validating the font?

Also, from Font Book Help:

If a dot appears next to a font name
A dot next to the name of a font in Font Book indicates that you have duplicate copies of that font installed. You can easily resolve this problem in Font Book by disabling any extra versions of the font.

To resolve duplicate fonts:
  1. Select the version of the font you want to use.
    If you’re not sure which font to use, choose Preview > Show Font Info to see information about each font.
  2. Choose Edit > Resolve Duplicates.
The selected version of the font is turned on and all other versions are turned off.

Also, from Font Book Help:

It is validated, and I removed the copies.
Here is the font information:

The odd part is, I can use it in Keynote!

Plus, I downloaded another font to see if it happened again, and it didn't! I could use it in Power Point :confused:

Here's the info of the font that worked:
