Hi.
I'm getting tired of CorelDraw systematically reporting missing fonts when I open my files, even though these fonts are definitely installed on my PC and I've just used them!
For example
In a CorelDraw file, I use the following fonts:
I save the file, close it, and reopen it immediately.
Then, I get the following error message:
Incidentally, I have never used the Arial SemiBold font, which is not installed on my PC and therefore does not appear in the list of available fonts in CorelDraw!
I'm really fed up with this, and I'm clearly not the only one! Is there any way to stop this error message from appearing?If not, could the CorelDraw development team FINALLY look into this issue and resolve it once and for all?
Thank you in advance for your help.
Not sure why you get these substitution messages but I suggest you try to disable 'Embed fonts' when saving your files, to see if you can avoid the messages that way.No need to embed unless you are sending your files to other users.
In my case, the "Embed fonts" option is disabled. I actually only use it very rarely ; in any case, not recently.
I’ve been facing the same issue in CorelDraw with fonts like Arial-Bold showing as missing, even though they’re installed and recently used. It’s especially frustrating when working on design-heavy projects like brand visuals for local clinics in West Valley City. I recently handled a layout for a cosmetic treatment provider — everything looked perfect until reopening the file triggered font errors I’d never seen before. Clearing the font cache helped a bit, but Corel really needs to fix how it maps font metadata across sessions.royaleaestheticsandbeauty.com/
Seems to be the versionnumber of the font. Look like with every Corel update the fonts also get a new version number.
I like to see an solution for this also because it's very annoying.
Agree.New font versions installed by an OS update for example, triggers the font substitution dialog, and itcan be a real pain if it is a standard font (like Arial for example) that is present in almost every file.There should be an option in the dialog to always, and silently, substitute a certain font with an updatedversion, and one would think that the "Save this font for future font matching" in the dialog should takecare of it but it doesn't appear to work at all.Corel has been notified about the issue a while ago.
