Graphics, Figures & Tables ⇒ LaTeX Font in Illustrator CS6

[ghostanime2001]

Before, I used to use TikZ & PSTricks solely for my diagrams, but now TikZ is becoming much complicated & time consuming for my diagrams, so I have found Illustrator CS6 as a better substitute. However, I have to now use vectors in my diagrams. When I compile code with vectors and try to open the resulting pdf file with illustrator I get a font missing error message. I would like to install this font to my windows font folder so I can draw diagrams over the latex compiled vector characters in illustrator CS6. I have attached a screenshot of the error.

Here is the latex code:

Your first post related to LaTeX fonts in Illustrator is now about two months ago. And as it seems you didn't really get a solution. Wouldn't you consider that a time consuming problem? With TikZ/PGF or PSTricks people here could help you much easier. Furthermore I wouldn't consider the resulting output of your example a complicated diagram. So you should think about the method from which you will benefit more. A commercial program that only a few people here use or a LaTeX graphics package that has lots of fans (including me).

yes you're right it was time consuming

Furthermore I wouldn't consider the resulting output of your example a complicated diagram.

I am going to add more things later on and expand the diagram

btw, I want arrows that are wider, the arrows in my diagram are too small

[…] I am going to add more things later on and expand the diagram. […]

That's still no sorcery. Just try and ask targeted questions if necessary (in another topic).

[…] […] I want arrows that are wider, the arrows in my diagram are too small

The development version of a new library offers an arrow head option. For the time being you can use something like this. Just incorporate that into my example.

    \draw[
      decoration={markings,mark=at position 1 with {\arrow[ultra thick]{>}}},
      postaction={decorate}
    ] (0,-0.5) -- (1,-0.5);
    \draw[
      decoration={markings,mark=at position 1 with {\arrow[scale=2]{>}}},
      postaction={decorate},
      shorten >=0.4pt
