Font gets bolder in actual webpage publication.

Hello, this is a simple question, i don't know if this has happened to you, but i am using a font, Lato Light as the main font of my webpage, it looks nice in the actual software screen (MUSE CC) looks sleek and thin as i want, then i add an underline to the text then i save it as an HTML file and preview it on my browser (Google chrome); the text gets BOLDER, and the line beneath the text too, the main text looks bolder as well, all the Lato Light font looks like Lato Normal , not Lato Light, is there a way to fix this?
Thank you so much.
Irving Armenta.

Unfortunately, this is representative of the (very unfortunate) variation in font rendering across browsers and operating systems (and in some cases browser versions and operating system versions). Typekit has a very long blog post on the issues involved <The Typekit Blog | Type rendering on the web>.
The variation is especially pronounced when using Edge Web Fonts in Muse Design view and the browser due to the rendering technology used in Design view for Edge Web Fonts. At some point we may change that technology to more closely match at least one popular browser and OS, but the work required is large, so it's not something we've put at the top of the priority list.

How do I get the truetype font to show the actual font in the font list

I am trying to find an option somewhere in Yosemite, where I can elect to have the font list show the actual font face in list format. It has been there prior to the Yosemite update, but now the list shows all fonts in the same font face.

Hello. I am trying to self host Italia fonts (Book, Bold and Medium) on Adobe Muse. I purchased web fonts from Linotype that are "obfuscated" - which means the name is hidden. Apparently I also need to install system fonts. Can I install with code in muse

Hello! I am trying to self host Italia fonts in muse. I purchased from Linotype the web fonts. But they sent obfuscated fonts and code. I need to also install as system fonts and those do not work for that. We already have different Italia fonts that we owned prior but they are not obfuscated... Is this a problem? Is there an easier way I can do this? TIA!

Abhishek,
Thank you for the reply. Wanted to comment on a few things.
I reviewed the other post that you've referenced. Nothing unusual jumped out at me as something that I was not aware of. I'm running an older iMac that is in good working condition. 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 24" screen. I know this issue is fleeting, as I stated earlier typically can be corrected with a restart of the CC Desktop application (that I am always running at startup). I have not been able to determine that shutting down Muse corrects the issue. I would, at this time say it doesn't.
I did open InDesign and see if the fonts in question, Open Sans and Open Sans Condensed, were present and usable. They were. The fonts are shown as being synched in my CC Desktop app window (even if they are not "installed" in Muse). That is expected but it may be a bug in how Muse brings in a font from those that are already synched to your CC account. I don't know enough about how that works to comment.
And just to complicate matters, Muse seems to be working again, the fonts that is. I brought them back in and they are showing up in all locations (which there are actually three - see screen shots).
First is primary text menu dropdown (to right of orange "Text").
Second is if you click orange Text link. Another drop down menu appears.
And lastly, the Text Panel to right of screen.
I also wanted to add this extra bit of information, for what it is worth. When the issue arises and you do not get the sub-menu dropdown showing various styles of the font (italics, bold, etc.), one can use click on the missing font if you had used it previously and it is present in the "previously used font" list.
Cheers!

IWeb 09 - Missing font BellGothicStd-Bold

Hi,
I created a site (Treasure theme), but everytime I open it I got message : Missing font BellGothicStd-Bold. Any idea why?
Thanks in advance.

Open Font Book, locate the font and deactivate it. Then reactivate it. Launch iWeb and see if you still get the message.
I have no Treasure theme in my iWeb. Is this a 3rd party theme that you installed? The BellGothicStd font is not a Web Safe Font and, as such, will not be viewed the same on computer that do not have that font installed. You can convert any text boxes using that font into an image by applying a drop shadow at 5% opacity. However, that will keep the text from search engines and add to the "weight" of the page for loading.
Is your site published on line? If so what's the URL of your site so we can examine it first hand?

Font-weight:bold; - works in firefox, safari, internet explorer 6 BUT NOT ie7

font-weight bold; on an external css style sheet is working in every browser (INCLUDING ie6) but NOT ie7?
I just don't get it. It even works in ie6.
NOTE:   One thing I should mention is that I have a conditional Internet Explorer statement, for a Internet Explorer-specific style sheet that targets ie6 and ie7.
But I don't think that's the issue because every other style is working properly EXCEPT font-weight:bold. This is absolutely maddening.
I tried searching around for solutions and the only lead i found was writing [ font-weight:bold !important; ] using that '!important' statement I thought would somehow force ie7 to acknowledge it. But no dice. It failed.
Here is the accursed code:
#date {
font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-weight:bold !important;   /*   bold not showing up in ie7 !!! */
font-size:.85em;   /* Is font-size affecting bold in ie7 ?? - was 85% */
color:#000000;
text-transform:uppercase;
margin-bottom:-.75em;
margin-top:6em;
Again, it works in every browser, including ie6...BUT NOT in IE7.
Any help will keep me from pulling my hair out. Thanks.

So it's still not BOLD in ie7.
- My css is validated.
- My HTML still shows 19 errors with 3 warnings, which is down from 31 errors with 3 warnings.
• Although most of these errors are directly from the 'Active Content' JavaScript that Dreamweaver places within your HTML when you insert Flash SWF files on your page. So I don't think I can even correct that.
• The next series of errors concern the P element. Which I think are because in 5 Paragraphs in a row, I gave them each the same relationship attribute (rel="lightbox[blog02]"). Why else would these paragraphs come up as errors when every other paragraph is perfectly fine? The errors the validator says are happening, aren't happening. It says that certain P tags aren't closed and it's not true, I can see with my own eyes that they are. I think the 'rel' values are confusing the validator?
All the major errors I took care of though. I replaced all the repeating ID attributes with CLASS attributes. I really thought that would have done it, but no. However, at least I'm no longer getting ID errors when attempting to validate.
So now I'm stumped.
I have no clue what to do next with something I thought would be so simple. I mean give me a break. I'm just trying to BOLD a line of text...smh.
So currently every browser, including the illicit ie6, shows the BOLD...BUT NOT IE7.
Sorry for the all caps, it's just so ridiculous to me.
Although I learned that validating your styles and sites is an important step in publishing your site. I also learned how to properly use ID and CLASS attributes.
However if anyone out there can point me in the right direction, it would still be very much appreciated. Thanks.

Error: Cannot find or create the font '0, Bold'...

I get this error when I try to open a .pdf file that someone sent to me. "Cannot find or create the font '0, Bold'. Some characters may not display or print correctly."
I use gmail and can view the file but as soon as I save it or try to print it and adobe reader opens the file I can't see the any of the letters just lines of dots where the text is supposed to be.
I did a quick search to see if there was already something in the forums or on the web but didn't find anything right away. I would like to print the file so any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Sounds like the file is corrupt. Try contacting the file's creator.

Michele

i found and disabled the funky font in my font book and now everything is normal again - thx goodness! but I never did figure out why or how or where the system was picking up this funky font to use for email and webpages. i'd like to keep the font if it won't interfere with the rest of my system. anyone else ever have this issue?

I am getting this error message when trying to get to a college webpage Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because the protocol (html) isn't associated with any program.

I am trying to get to a college webpage for information and get this error message from firefox Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because the protocol (html) isn't associated with any program.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== whe trying to access webpage

Is this coming from a link, or from something you are trying to type in the address bar?
Try replacing the "html" at the start with "http",
so if you have html://somesite.edu,
change it to http://somesite.edu.

How do I change the font to bold for a label in a check box item

I am having no success with this and my internet searches throw me all over the place with no success. Can someone please explain how to change fonts for items in the most simple and basic terms. Thanks

Use HTML Form Element Attributes and type there something like style="font-weight:bold" or Form Element Option Attributes and class="fielddatabold". See my demo app for that:

I have Firefox 9.0.1, and a few days ago my font became Bold, I am using Times New Roman, this seems to be also the case in IE, but the Chrome is not affected, also the fonts in my Word are fine, how can I fix this problem? Thanks!

Firefox 9.0.1,
When i write in the search box on Google the font is bold and on some website it is bold also in the gmail but on other sites it is fine.
Please let me know how can I fix this.

So, you do not see any fonts bold that shouldn't be bold?
What are your current default font settings?
If you have increased the minimum font size then try the default setting "none" as a (too) high value can cause issues.
*Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced > Minimum Font Size (none)
Make sure that you allow websites to choose their fonts.
*Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced > [X] "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of my selections above"
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Changing+fonts+and+colors
It is better not to increase the minimum font size in case you need a larger font, but use an extension to set the default page zoom to prevent issues with overlapping text.

Ssrs 2008 r2 writingmode=rotate270 font is bold on report server

In a ssrs 2008 r2 report, I am using writingmode=rotate270 to change the direction of header columns for detailed data on the SSRS report. The font in visual studio is 'light'. However when the report is deployed to the report server, the font weight is
bold.
Thus can you tell me if there is a workaround to make the font not bold when it is executed on the report server? If so, can you tell me how to solve the font problem so the font is not bold when writingmode=rotate270 when executed on the report server?

Hi Wendy,
I am able to reproduce the issue in both SQL Server 2008 R2 RTM Reporting Services and the latest version of SQL Server 2008 R2 Reporting Services (SQL Server 2008 R2 SP2 CU10, Build number 10.50.4297). In addition, based on my test, it is fixed in SQL Server
2012 SP1 Reporting Services.
To work around this issue, you can place images in the column header cells and make the rotation of the text in the images. Besides, I would suggest you submitting a wish at

I have a Mac OS X and a Sony HDR-CX7 camcorder. When I get onto the sony webpage to download program to import movies onto my Mac, they only have downloads for Windows. How can I get a program for my Mac?

I have a Mac Os X and a Sony HDR-CX7 camcorder. When I get onto the Sony webpage to download the program so I can import my movies, they only have programs Windows. How do I get this for my Mac.

You shouldn't need any application except what you already have: iMovie, iDVD, iPhoto....
To check on compatibility with your model camcorder, check these out:

Some formats are not readable by the above; you can use something like MPEG Streamclip to convert the footage or Quicktime Pro (as mentioned in one of the articles).

File, Send link doesn't open a new email. Using Firefox 11.0. Outlook 2010 is the Mailto default and W7 default email program. On the About:config page network.protocol-handler.external.mailto is set to regular font (not bold) "default Boolean true".

File, Send link doesn’t open a new email. Running Firefox 11.0. Outlook 2010 is the Mailto default and the W7 default email program. On the About:config page, network.protocol-handler.external.mailto is set to regular font (not bold) “default Boolean true”.

I assume you have tried toggling the setting in Firefox between Outlook and, say, Gmail:
orange Firefox button ''or'' classic Tools menu > Options > Applications
In the search box, type or paste '''mailto''' and pause for the list to filter.
Change the setting and OK to save it, then return to the dialog, change back, and OK again.
You also might want to toggle the setting at the OS level between Microsoft Outlook and the native Windows Mail client in a similar fashion. In Windows XP you could use IE's Options dialog, Programs tab, for this, but I'm not sure in Windows 7.
Since one possibility is a problem in your Firefox settings (including the possibility of interfering add-ons), and another is a problem at the Windows level (e.g., Registry settings), it would be useful to try to identify which one it is. One quick way to distinguish is to create a new Firefox profile. It will start up with all factory settings. You can switch back to your existing profile after testing.
First, I recommend backing up your Firefox settings in case something goes wrong. See [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Backing+up+your+information Backing up your information]. (You can copy your entire Firefox profile folder somewhere outside of the Mozilla folder.)
After closing Firefox, start up again in the Profile Manager as described in this article: [http://support.mozilla.com/kb/Managing+profiles Managing profiles].
With the new profile, can Firefox successfully create a message in Outlook?

How to stop size of JTextField from changing when I change font to bold

I'm working on a Sudoku solver for a CS project. I've got JTextFields for the input. I want to bold the entries of the begining puzzle, like they are in the magazines. When I set the font to bold, it changes the size of the text field. I'm using the gridbaglayout and have tried everything to set in stone the size of a text field, but nothing seems to work. I've set the maximum, minimum size, the setSize method, as well as setting the prefered size. But no matter, when I change the font from plain to bold, the box grows in size. How do I prevent this from happening. I can post my gui code if it would help.
Here is a link to my grid, with the upper left square having bold text:
http://12.227.129.113/CS486/Project4/Project4.html

add them to panel/s set as a gridlayout 9 x 9, or (3 x 3) x (3 x 3)
simple demo of a 9 x 9
import java.awt.*;
import javax.swing.*;
class Testing extends JFrame
JTextField[] tf = new JTextField[81];
public Testing()
    setLocation(200,100);
    setDefaultCloseOperation(EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
    JPanel p = new JPanel(new GridLayout(9,9,5,5));
    for(int x = 0, y = tf.length; x < y; x++)
      tf[x] = new JTextField(2);
      tf[x].setHorizontalAlignment(JTextField.CENTER);
      p.add(tf[x]);
    tf[0].setFont(tf[0].getFont().deriveFont(Font.BOLD));
    tf[0].setText("9");
    tf[1].setText("3");
    tf[66].setFont(tf[66].getFont().deriveFont(Font.BOLD));
    tf[66].setText("9");
    getContentPane().add(p);
    pack();
public static void main(String[] args){new Testing().setVisible(true);}
}

Font gets bolder in actual webpage publication.
