I just deleted the fonts from the font folder in windows. I did the F5 key. It removed the fonts from the list but still left all the spaces for it. Now I have a long list of empty lines. And if I click on the empty line it still tells me the name of the missing font<a href="https://filedb.experts-exchange.com/incoming/2018/12_w50/1407140/2018-12-15-19.51.45.jpg" target="_blank" title="Screen pic of list (1.8 MB)"><img alt="Screen pic of list" class="file-block lazyload" style="max-width: 800px;" data-src="https://filedb.experts-exchange.com/incoming/2018/12_w50/800_1407140/2018-12-15-19.51.45.jpg" /></a><a href="https://filedb.experts-exchange.com/incoming/2018/12_w50/1407140/2018-12-15-19.51.45.jpg" target="_blank" title="Screen pic of list (1.8 MB)"><img alt="Screen pic of list" class="file-block lazyload" style="max-width: 800px;" data-src="https://filedb.experts-exchange.com/incoming/2018/12_w50/800_1407140/2018-12-15-19.51.45.jpg" /></a>

I have removed several fonts from my system (Win 7 pro) but they still show up in the drop down in Illustrator CS6. I have gone thru control panel/fonts and that didn't work. How do I get the fonts that are no longer on my system off the list please?

Illustration software is distinguished from photo-editing software in that the result is an original construction, rather than the manipulation of a photograph. Illustration software uses vector-based tools such that the content is stored digitally as resolution-independent mathematical formulae describing lines (open paths), shapes (closed paths), and color fills, strokes or gradients. Vector paths are constructed of anchor points and path segments. Illustration tools typically create precise lines, shapes and patterns with well-defined edges and are superb for working with complex constructions such as maps and typography.

Each edition consists several Adobe applications, including Photoshop, Acrobat, InDesign, Premiere Pro or After Effects. Photoshop, InDesign, and Illustrator are the industry standard applications for many graphic design positions. CS6 is the last version of the Creative Suite; future versions of their creative software would only be available via their Adobe Creative Cloud subscription service.
