    Hi everyone,

    If you're running into this error message (pictured above) then we'd love to get a screenshot of the message, if possible, that shows the specific font that is appearing as 'not installed'.

    ℹ️ UPDATE

    Hi everyone,

    We're still looking into this at the moment but just a quick update.


    Printing πŸ–¨οΈ

    If you're running into the error message above when trying to print, if you click OK on the message the print job will still be completed. The 'missing font' will be substituted with the Arial font.

    When printing in a batch however, the message prompt needs to be acknowledged for each print that contains the specific font.

    If you find that Reckon Accounts Hosted looks to be frozen or not responding during a print, there may be a prompt/window open in the background that is awaiting action. Try pressing Alt and Page Down or Alt and Page Up buttons to bring any windows in the background to the foreground.


    Emailing πŸ“§

    When emailing, the form does get emailed without any error, and as above, the 'missing font' will be substituted with Arial.



    Our teams are still working on this at the moment and if you're encountering this error, it would be great to get a screenshot of the message which shows which specific font is missing for you.

    Thanks for your patience everyone, I'll have more updates to follow as soon as possible.

    I'm still getting that message (the font that's missing for me is Bookman Old Style).

    Hi @Sonya Herbert

    Thanks for the report on that specific font, really appreciate it πŸ™Œ

    If you click OK on that message, it should print normally and will substitute that missing font to Arial.

    Did that work ok for you?

    Hi Rav

    Yes, documents are printing - just in Arial normal. The error message is the same as the screenshot posted further up the comments, with the exception of the font type. Thanks for the speedy response.
