Font preview in Illustrator CS2

October 13, 2006 12:21 PM

How can I get Illustrator CS2's font preview to work on my Windows machines?

On the Macs I've used, font names in the Type Character window are displayed in their corresponding fonts. I'd love to have this on my two Windows machines.

Adobe Help says to go to Edit/Preferences/Type and turn on the preview feature, but this does nothing--it was already on anyway.

On Mac, it only shows the preview in the Type palette and not in the options bar (if that's where you're looking to see it).

Yeah, I want the preview in the type palette. Actually, I'll take any kind of font preview I can get.
