Excel Error "No more new fonts may be applied. Please close some other documents and try again"
Bother question Excel H&B 2019 : Alert " No more new fonts may be applied" every time edit cell. File size is not that big ( 7xx KB ) but have 16 sheet ( in sheet have many formula and link ) ...
Hi,
There has been an MSKB article about this, but has been unpublished since. So I guess the problem has been fixed in an update. First thing to do: update Office by running Windows update, including updates for other products.
Still no luck? It might help to disable autoscale for all of the charts ( Format > Selected Chart Area > Font)
Kind regards
Hans

Hi, Hans
Thanks for the answer.
For MSKB article about "Error New font". I found and read but Link to Microsoft web is lost "not found page" ( found article in Office 2007 ).
Update : Windows and Office update to current complete.
I search in google found an article about this error, at takling autoscale in chart, but my excel file don't chart.
I try use excel in safe mode or use this excel file in other computer ( same windows10 and office H&B2019 ) but problum.
I uninstall Office, delete folder about Office, reboot and reinstall still found the same error
Kind regardsMethpong I have to say I am absolutely sick of this problem as well.
I have found that when I have 3 Excel documents open at any one time it happens.
Unfortunately because of my workload I always have at least 2 open & this is killing me!!
In the "old days" you used to be able to have multiple documents open without hassle, but now ..??
I am using an Apple MacBook Pro, which I recently updated it because I thought the problem might be because of insufficient RAM or storage. Guess what? It isn't !!
The only thing I can do is to Force Quit on Excel & start again.
All Office & Apple system updates are up to date.
Is it possible that Microsoft could actually listen to their users, because I'm just about ready to throw them out & try another option...
Because so many people have had this problem over the past few years, I would think Microsoft would/should do something about it !!
- Hi, i have had this problem too. I made a quiet huge datebase in excel (4,5mb) , and then i experienced this problem multiple times on 1 document opened from time to time, less often however when i have had opened 2 documents at same time, then the "no new fonts" error make any work impossible to carry out. I dont know why the problem occurs but i think i might have found solution to it, at least cure. What I did with my document is that i simply opened second blank document (alternative) and then i have copied every spreadsheet i needed onto new worksheet by simply left clicking on each spreadsheet on the bottom tab, select "move or copy" and in the menu thick "copy", select to which document it has to be copied - in this case new blank sheet. and press ok. Then entire spreadsheet have been copied into new blank worksheet, you repeat it with every other spreadsheet. you need, then close old bugged document, and enjoy new copied document. I dont know what i just did, but it works for me. It seems like i kind of reset the memory, cache or something, because it dont bug me everytime now. However i do not guarantee if problem will not appear again if you will continue to add new fonts/formulas or formats. Because it definetelly has something to memory.
