I do find it a little odd that Adobe has not provided a means to resolve this particular problem that afflicts no small number of customers. I did my best to work through this beast to no avail:

As for the 'greek' page, the files were zipped in a .rar. I've uploaded a duplicate .zip archive, which should be able to be opened by Macs without any 3rd party software. <http://public.newrandom.com/Reqrd.zip>
I wouldn't waste time trying it though. I'll search for the Mac related fonts and system files when I get to school tomorrow, until then, there's not much I can do.

I am also looking for a fix to the CMap problem. However I have a slightly different issue pop up. After following the last advice for the fix (here <http://www.adobe.com/support/techdocs/324343.html)> I re started the pc and re installed InDesign. When I tried to open it, I had the window pop up to put in the serial number again, for the suite. So I did, but nothing happened and it wont let me get past this screen, even after re typing the serial number.
Any Ideas? Should I just reinstall again?
If it is, then I suggest doing a complete uninstall, and then reinstalling.
I understand the reasoning fine, no offense taken.
I put InDesign onto my mac pro and had the error come up as i was installing the program, looked at all the ideas from this forum but stumbled accross an easy fix that didnt involve copying files ect.....
All i had to do is install Photoshop CS2 (or in my case Photoshop CS2 Free Trial) first then install InDesign.
This worked on my mac, i put InDesign Trial on my Laptop (windows Pc) just to see if it would come up with the same problem and yes it did :- Error message on indesign start up..."Missing required system fonts or cmap files"
So i Un installed it and installed Photoshop CS2 trial, then put Indesign CS2 on and it worked !
I Really hope this works for other people.

Next...if only I could figure out why I am getting a Runtime Error on Illustrator CS2 when trying to save a file.
Boy...I wish Adobe was more responsive to their customers support needs.
Thanks again Domingo.

It worked! Thank you so much, Domingo.
(1) Please post in the relevant forum. You are asking a question about Photoshop on Macintosh. This is a forum for InDesign on Windows.
(2) Furthermore, please don't hijack existing message threads with questions about something else.
(3) Finally, typing in ALL CAPS not only makes your message hard to read for us humans, but it is also considered to be the equivalent of shouting on the internet. Please use normal typing when posting in these forums.

Thanks Domingo for posting those files!!
But, now I receive the following error:
"Some files required for color management are missing. please re-install the application to ensure proper functioning Indesign."
So, now I have to figure out how to fix this!!
I've tried searching online and can't come up with anything. If anyone has a solution, please email me at eisor at uga dot edu.
Copying the Reqrd folder provided by Domingo did the trick. Oddly, the CMaps folder that was there initially had less than ten files in it and the Base folder was completely missing.
I need help. I've XP Spanish version and i created the folder C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Fonts but it still doesn't work. There it's also the folder C:\Archivos de programa\Common Files\Adobe\Fonts both with the folder Reqrd.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks so much for all your help with the missing fonts and getting dreaded error message. Everything worked fine. I downloaded your reqrd.rar and zipped it to get the relevant 2 folders. I searched and searched as to where to put it, like Ann I have a MAC. I followed Ann's location on my mac and got to Library/Application Support/Adobe/Fonts and that's all I had. I moved Domingo's Reqrd Folder over and renamed the folder to Reqrd (full location now Library/Application Support/Adobe/Fonts/Reqrd.) I opened up both Indesign CS2 & Photoshop CS2
and both errors have been resolved (Indesign with the error about CMAPS & Photoshop with error that Abobe could not complete your request because of a program error.)
Thank you so much Domingo & Ann for your insight to where on a MAC the folders would go.
All the best and Happy Holidays.
