Files do not show correct FONT

I have a ton of files. When I open then and use the select/pointer tool to 'see' what font they are it doesn't show the right font. This is a HUGE issue because if I have to add a word or make a correction I have NO idea what
font was used to create that word. ALL fonts on files now are showing the 'SAME' font - see uploaded file. I have NO idea what to do.

Which cutter are you using? Silhouette Cameo

Which version of the software are you using? Scal 3.070

Which version of Windows are you using? I¹m not using Windows anymore.
I migrated to Mac and am now using the SCAL Mac.
For my Mac, I¹m using OS X Yosemite 10.10.3

Hi, this used to happen to me all the time and there is no way that I know of to recover the font used so I found that if I use Window/project notes I can enter reminders to myself about what font, where I got the image and any other things I did to the file. Very useful.

Hope this helps.

You can also type the name of the font on the page of your design. Then just delete the font temporarily to cut out your design.
