Postscript names here are case-sensitive and must match exactly what Font Book.app provides. Type the command вЂdefaults write PrioritizedFonts -array вЂњpostscript name 1вЂќ вЂњpostscript name 2вЂќ вЂњetc.вЂќвЂ™ and hit return to run it. Select the font you want to prioritize in the center paneД®nsure Font Information is selected in the top left of the window, and find the PostScript Name field in the right pane and copy it. Launch Font Book (open applications folder in Finder, find and launch вЂњFont book.appвЂќ) Note: Postscript names are not the same as font families and each style will have a different postscript name, so to prioritize an entire font family you may need to add multiple names. I tried all of the above but this solved my issue (after dragging/dropping fonts to Computer)ДЇind the postscript names of the fonts that you want to prioritize. This thing is beginning to feel like a twilight zone episode. Sorry if I came out too strong, I am super-furious right now.

#Add font for mac windows 10#

The sad truth is that all you posers are just using these crappy machines that are 3 decades behind windows 10 in terms of user experience, and a decade behind in terms of technology. Go figure that out all you morons bashing Microsoft.

I am in hell right now when I have to purchase overly priced crappy macbooks with their inferior operating system just because the clients who are too dumb to realize the obvious buy a Mac, and surprise surpriseвЂ¦ when the same presentation is created on a Mac and the fonts manually changed, the same fonts when sent to apple users workвЂ¦. Yeah, IвЂ™m amazed at how many of the apple users want вЂњmicrosoftвЂќ to fix the issue, when in fact the fonts work great on every windows PC, but it is only the monopolistic, unconstitutional, evil morons at Apple are the ones вЂњblockingвЂќ fonts from presentations or programs designed on Windows.

Here is a link to completely remove Office on a mac and is the final puzzle piece that allowed me to solve this riddle.

when you re-start work or Excel you will now see a task completing to rebuild the cache files and if you observe the location above you will see new cache files.

also you might need to look in /Users/yourname/Library/Application Support/Microsoft/Preferences/Office 2011.

not there? Microsoft moved them in later releases of Office 2011 to /Library/Application Support/Microsoft/Preferences/Office 2011 вЂ“ even MSвЂ™ articles are incorrect!.

click the menu Go->Library or type in a folder /Library by choosing the Go->Go to Folder option then navigate eventually to /Library/Preferences/Microsoft/Office 2011.

Lion? goto finder and hold the option key and вЂ¦.

Microsoft moved it for Office 2011 for Mac for some computers different than others

Microsoft font cache file can be delete so it will force a refresh вЂ“ but it can be in 2 places вЂ“ check both.

DonвЂ™t assume that because a font works in lets say Word, that it will appear in Excel вЂ“ it might once the cache catches up.

Adding fonts to the user fonts will never show up in Microsoft Office products.

DonвЂ™t forget to reboot before ripping your hair out

A reboot triggers the Mac Font store to sync with Office.

drag them from your Finder onto Computer (under the Collection section at the left of the Font Book app).

instead вЂ“ start up Font Book (use the spotlight or magnifying glass to find it quick in the upper right of your Mac).

#Add font for mac install#

To install fonts for MS Office 2011 вЂ“ donвЂ™t double click them вЂ“ this installs them naturally in the user fonts.

ONLY TTF fonts work for Office вЂ“ or so MS claims.

Microsoft Office fonts in /Library/Fonts/Microsoft (ahhh I see).

system fonts in /System/Library/Fonts (never ever touch these).

computer wide (all accounts) fonts in /Library/Fonts.

user fonts stored in /Users/youraccount/Library/Fonts.

I researched dozens of websites each adding a piece to the puzzle. I now know more about fonts that I ever wanted to know especially how Microsoft fonts fit into the Mac picture. One customer had issues with a critical branding font that installs fine on everyone elseвЂ™s Macbook but not theirs. When things go wrong вЂ“ they can sometimes really go wrong. Macs are not perfect even though oneвЂ™s productivity is much higher with one.
