When you upload a new font in Zakeke you might get an error message.
Summary
1. Error messages
There are two possible messages:
-
Font already installed: this means that a font with the same name is already on your list. Please double-check in your Zakeke's Fonts section. If you still want to upload the font, you should rename it otherwise the Zakeke's system won't accept it.
-
Font name not accepted: this means that the font cannot be installed because its name is creating a conflict in the Zakeke system. In order to upload it correctly, you should rename it or it won't be accepted.
3. How to rename a font
Before you start
We recommend you change the name of your font using a unique name. For example, if you want to upload the Adamina font, you should use the description "Adamina-YourStore".
-
Go on glyphrstudio.com (or any other similar tool) and upload your Font file via Load > Browser for a File.
-
Once selected the file, you can click on Edit project button, as highlighted below.
-
Click on font settings and you can add the name in the "Font Family" field.
-
To export the file of the renamed font, click on the "File" button and the "Export OTF Font" button.
- Now go back to your Zakeke dashboard and proceed to upload your renamed font.
