I cannot access all the fonts installed on my PC.from the drop down menu in Photoshop CS. eg futura medium
If I design something in a previous version of Photoshop and cut& paste into CS it then shows in the dropdown and can be used as normal, but only in that file.
I am using a Dell PC on XP with 1048 ram
Can anyone advise?

All the fonts were installed on the PC before I installed Photoshop CS. Everything works in photoshop 7

search for and delete adobefnt*.lst it’ll be rebuilt as needed. there might be several copies…

then make sure you’re scrolling the full list. they might not be in exact alphabetical order. PS lists fonts according to their internal name, which might be quite different than the name you’re expecting.
