Workaround for using FontBase with InDesign

I’ve gone through the forums and several people have reported that fonts they’ve activated using FontBase are not showing up in InDesign. A couple of people have said they solved the problem, but I can’t find an explanation of how.

One interesting thing I discovered is that, while the fonts don’t show up in the font list, if I open a document that used an unlisted font that I created before switching to FontBase, the font will appear as normal. I can then copy and paste a piece of text into a new document, and the font will appear in the font list.
