Its really not rocket science and if you have used MS office and Macs since they were created and developed. This works for probably all versions of Mac OS X that you see this issue on. Yes, I have figured out how to install MS office font collection and get it to be recognized by the Mac OS and FontBook app. Has anyone been able to get macOS to recognize these fonts without having to install duplicates in /Library/Fonts?. I tried running a ln -s /Applications/Microsoft Word.app/Contents/Resources/DFonts /Library/Fonts to create a symbolic link in /Library/Fonts, but opening up the Font Book app as well as the font menu within TextEdit does not cause the Word fonts to show up as options
I understand that Microsoft has made the decision to make everything their respective office apps need within the app itself, but I'm wondering if anyone has figured out a way through an alias or other method to get the OS and third-party apps to see the fonts in Microsoft Word so that these Office fonts are usable by other applications on the Mac. We ran into an issue at the beginning of the year where our school's student newspaper did not have access to the basic fonts that were previously installed in /Library/Fonts by Office 2011 in the latest version of Adobe CC InDesign.Īs a result, we ended up extracting several of these fonts from Word ( /Applications/Microsoft Word.app/Contents/Resources/DFonts) and deploying them to the necessary machines through a configuration profile.
