  1. Error messages
  2. How to rename a font

 

1. Error messages

There are two possible messages:

  1. 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.

  2. 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".

  1. Go on glyphrstudio.com (or any other similar tool) and upload your Font file via Load > Browser for a File.
