Many of my files are claiming they are missing Arial. This has occurred suddenly. When I proceed to open the file, the font displays erratically all over the place. (when I select a text box, and check the Character palette, it displays a printer or postScript icon) It is as if it has forgotten that the font is installed.
IT had made Windows updates to my system + added new hardware (Wacom tablet), and the issue began immediately after that!
This issue occurs within all programs that have used Arial in saved files.

Anything we can do about this? This same issue occured in the past, with another font family, after I got a new PC. There seemed to be a lot of uninstalling + reinstalling of fonts to resolve the issue.

Thanks!
