I spent hours today choosing the right fonts for my Cid font family, extracting them from the font I used, and finally designing an F1 page to download. It was strange because I'm not a professional graphic designer by any means, but it went really smoothly. The F1 shows up nicely on my computer screen with no design modification needed. However, after uploading it to libre office online for printing purposes, I encountered an error message shortly thereafter that read "Font Not Found." That's when I realized that what was causing this issue wasn't just bad typography or that my source files were no longer available to me. "If the font is not installed on your computer, then it's impossible to open that file." This surprises me, because I didn't put anything in the software installation folder. The only files I added to the default Windows fonts folder were for LibreOffice and my Cid font family. I opened up a command prompt and typed "dir" without quotes to see what directory the fonts were in. So far so good. Then I tried opening a file with an F1 using libreoffice online with the same results: the program still opened but no characters appeared on screen at all. This is where I started to get a little frustrated. I couldn't find a way to extract the embedded fonts from the file. The only thing that worked was opening the F1 in a text editor and copy-pasting it into a fresh document over and over again. I did this about 15 times before realizing that it took forever to do, so I decided to try something else. I downloaded Inkscape, thinking that I could extract all of the embedded fonts from my F1 using Inkscape's font feature, but when I went back for another round of copy-paste-extract, but this time added Inkscape to my installation folder and tried again. Inkscape downloaded the fonts, so I proceeded to extract them. This time, the fonts extracted pretty quickly and I was able to open my F1 via LibreOffice online. It's so nice to be able to use these beautiful typefaces again! The fonts are free for personal use. If you want to use them commercially - contact me first, please.These are the four font families I used: Font Currency Rate Private Public I recommend downloading the entire family of five fonts at once since they're available for free download in one .zip file, rather than separately via .zip archives or on my website (see link below). All four of my font families are available for download at either of these two locations: Cid Font Family Download Link - more info on this family at the bottom of this page. Long time readers may remember that I had released the Cid font decades ago under a commercial license. The problem I had with that release was that originally, it came in five sizes, but only two were usable by anyone using desktop software (including Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator.) Using the remaining three with most computer operating systems or programs would require additional installation steps. That meant if you wanted to use them commercially, you would have to pay one thousand dollars for the special size you needed. cfa1e77820
