Font Standards - defaults

We want to create documents for Adobe Readers that anyone can open without font substitution.
According to Adobe's documentation there is suppose to be standard built-in fonts so we do not need to embed fonts or risk substitution.
I can not find this list - does anybody have information on it or can point to a location on Adobe's site where I can research.
Thank you

>We want to create documents for Adobe Readers that anyone can open without font substitution.
The current popular wisdom is that you just embed your fonts.
Certainly you have to have a pretty strong reason not to.
In fact, even the built in fonts are now substituted for most people
(e.g. A flavour of Arial is substituted for Helvetica).
The 14 fonts which are specially treated are
Helvetica (-Bold, -Oblique, -BoldOblique). This is NOT Arial.
Times-Roman, -Bold, -Italic, -BoldItalic. This is NOT Times New Roman.
Courier (-Bold, -Oblique, -BoldOblique). This is NOT Courier New.

I need to know the standard default font for Firefox

I had a Dell 20 inch 2007fp monitor that I had to give up. I purchased an LG 22inch widescreen monitor.
My home page is the Drudge Report and with the new monitor the font is all messed up.
What is the standard default font for Firefox?

You can see the defaults in a screenshot in this KB article: [[Some text shows up bold after upgrade]] 
You can check the font setting in: Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors: Advanced 
Default Font: Times New Roman (16) 
 
Fonts for : Western 
 
Proportional: Serif (16) 
Serif : Times New Roman 
Sans-serif : Arial 
Monospace : Courier New (13)

Standard default font vs. nonstandard font

How do you check for a nonstandard "system installed" font for the display.
Using it if there and if not set the font to a standard default font.
i.e. I want to use timeField.setFont(new Font("sansserif", Font.PLAIN, 48)); if it is there. If not, I want to use whichever the standard default font is.
tia,
Daniel

How do you set the font (i.e. comic sansserif) and,
if not exists, then use the default?
Did we not just answer this question by trying it out?
As for setting the font to the non-default font. What are you having trouble with? I have not set TrueType fonts with Java yet, but from what I am reading, it looks as though you might just be able to give it the name of the font.

Your site was built using tables, whose sizes are defined in your site.
If we look at your first table definition, we can see:
<table width="861" height="1449" border="3" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" bordercolor="#868787">
Your table has a width of 861 pixels and an overall height of 1449 pixels. Anything you put into that overall box must fit those dimensions, else
it won't be visible. Anything you add above it will push everything down. You can redefine your sizing to let you edit more inside of the table elements.
This is why, when you type in more text, things act weird. If you are in Dreamweaver, you must find the right cell to put your text into and then enter
text there. Unfortunately, this is going to push things around, which were all lined up using tables. And this gets everything offset with respect to
everything else in your website.
And that is why everyone is saying, "Start Over!"
I just inherited a website that has been put together using tables. I'm going to have to expend considerable effort in rewriting the entire design of the
website because of that. because everything I intend to add to the pages on the site is going to need to be deconstructed in order to get it to work
properly if I'm adding text and pictures that need to line up with each other.
You need something done quick and dirty and the only way I can recommend you do that is to use Dreamweaver to show you the tables you have
and put what you need in a new table that is defined above or below the tables you all ready have defined. Do that and then get back to someone here
who knows how to make a website correctly to clean up your entire website and make it editable -- which will cost you some money, but it will be
money well-spent.
I like to quote this maxim: Good, Fast, Cheap. Pick any two. This works for website design. You can get it fast and cheap, but it won't be good. I
think you may have chosen that route.

Acrobat 9 Standard- Default Save As Location

Is there a setting somewhere, or a registry key that controls the default location when you "Save As"?
I have a user that opens PDF files from the internet, and then saves to a network share. Every time she opens a document and goes to save it Acrobat defaults to the Temporary Internet Files, and she has to navigate back to the network share.
Is there a way to default it to the root of the network drive, or make Acrobat remember the last location she saved something and default back to there? This is a fresh install of Acrobat Standard 9 (patched), and she swears it used to remember the last location.
Thanks

Some folks have suggested registry edits (don't remember if it works), but the simplest way is to simply add a short cut to MyDocuments.

How do you set default fonts and default text box sizes on bound form fields?

I am using an existing PDF as a template to build my form in designer.
I am dragging my objects from the schema window to the form and when I drop it on the form it is way too big - so for every field I do this with I am left to resize and reset the font to every bound object i drop on the page!
Is there a way to set the default font and the default dimensions of the bound text boxes I am droping on the PDF form page?
Thanks to anyone who can help!

iWork '09 DVD set (containing Pages '09 v4.0, Numbers '09 v2.0, and Keynote '09 v5.0) is available from Amazon for USD $20. Apple no longer provides retail store, or OS X App Store downloads. You will need to apply the Apple iWork 9.3 updater afterwards to bring these applications to their n.3 (e.g. Pages '09 v4.3) last versions. You will have an /Applications/iWork '09 folder afterwards.
I would also launch /Applications/Utilities/Disk Utilities, select your boot drive, and verify/repair permissions — just to be on the safe side for the newly added iWork '09 applicaitons.

Font Standards on all clients

Hi,
Can anybody plz. let me know how can i setup standard fonts for
my reports to be deployed on Solaris.
Same machine same browser HTML format leads to a different
output styles. The column headers appear bold on NT and on
Solaris few column headers appear bold and some normal. Font
size and font name also found changed in few columns.
The problem is the discrepencies do not have any pattern.
Same thing that runs on NT correctly works half right and half
wrong on Solaris. I mean why does few columns headers appear
bold where as few don't?
Thanx in advance.
Harish

hello,
you should look into the font-substitution functionality
(UIFONT.ALI) which allows you to define substitution of fonts,
that are not available on the system. this is especially
usefull, if you switch between platforms (NT -> UNIX).

Oracle forms standard/default menu - Record Delete option

Hi ,
Oracle forms provides a standard menu with the below options.
Action , Query , Block , Record , Help etc.
Under each of these Menu options there are sub options.
Eg: Under Record we have Previous , Next , Insert , Delete etc.
Can someone please tell me how to control this menu item options for different forms.
Eg: for 1 form i want to allow the Record - Delete option but for another form i dont want to give this option.
How to do this ??
Please help....
I tried to search for the solution but couldnt get the right answer. Hope someone will help me out here.
Regards,
SRT

Hello,
The Oracle Forms documentation states:
The Default menu is built-in to every form, and is not a separate menu module.
You cannot change the structure of the Default menu or edit the menu items it
displays.
If your application requires
unique menu functions, you must create a custom menu module and attach it to
your form.
If the internal default menu almost meets your needs, you can attach the
"menudef.mmb" approximation of the default menu to the form. You can then
rename and edit this menu.
You can download the demo version for 10g R2 and menudefs_10g.mmb is included with the demos.
http://download.oracle.com/otndocs/demos/Forms_Demos_10gr2.zip
You will get menudef_10g.mmb and menudefs_10g.mmb.
If needed check metalink note:
Differences between menudef.mmb and menudefs.mmb menu files. [ID 1081136.1]
Kind regards,
Alex

Help: Every time I do something in Font Book, default browser fonts get messed up

Every time I change anything in Font Book (enable, disable fonts for example) all my international default fonts in FireFox and in Safari get so messed up, that it's hard to read sometimes. The default fonts suddenly become substituted by other fonts. I tried completely reinstalling the system fonts folder (fetched it from MAC OSX installation CD) but no result. I tried disabling all the custom fonts, and then enabling again the ones I need - didn't help.
Every time this happens, I need to restart my Mac in Safe Mode, and restart again, so that it deletes it's font cache. Then all is Ok, until the next time I do anything in Font book.
This is really annoying, please help!
Thanks

I'd suspect maybe RAM then.
Boot off your *original* Install Disk while holding down the *d key*, (not c key), then run the extended Apple Hardware Test. Some disks require you to use the Option key at bootup to select AHT.
The Memory test can really only be trusted if it finds a problem, not if it doesn't find a problem.

Acrobat X Standard defaults to non-existant printer

After uninstalling a Lexmark S310 printer for one specific user, we'll call them UserX, Acrobat X Standard still defaults to the Lexmark S310 printer even though it doesn't exist in Windows anymore. All other users it works correctly, this only affects 1 user, UserX. All other programs work fine for UserX. I spent 30 minutes on the phone with Adobe support who proceeded to tell me that Adobe doesn't store any information in users profiles and that it was a Windows problem, yet their software is the only one having a problem, a complete waste of 30 minutes. I have deleted all the Adobe profile information from c:\users\userx\appdata\local\adobe, c:\users\userx\appdata\locallow\adobe, and c:\users\userx\appdata\roaming\adobe and it still does the same thing. I am at my wits end and about ready to delete the profile and recreate. Anyone have any ideas so I don't have to go that far?

I should also mention that Acrobat does not show the new printer that has been installed. It's almost as if it's stuck in time, I just need to know how to refresh the printer information and "unstick" it

E60 and too small font in default screensaver

is there any way to change fonts bigger in this model? or is there some screensaver with bigger font available?

Using "regedit" I was able to change the font size larger for use with the Palm Desktop software.
Run "regedit" and export (save) a backup copy for safety
   File > Export
Search for "FontSmall"
   Edit > Find > Find what > FontSmall
Click on FontSizeGeneral and change the "Value data" to 16
Exit "regedit"
Run Palm Desktop software and enjoy the new legible font size!
Notes:
1) The location of the Palm Desktop software on my system using "regedit" is:
        HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\U.S. Robotics\Pilot Desktop\Core
        * Your location of the Palm Desktop software may differ.
2) I tested this on monitors using resolutions of 1280 x 1024 and 1024 x 768
        The font size is noticeably readable and much, much better
3) You may also change the font family from the default (Arial) to another, such as Verdana, etc.
        FontCard   (Changes the font family in the side panels)
        FontGeneral   (Changes the font family for most of the program fonts)
4) Operating System: Windows XP Pro
        Palm Desktop v4.1.4

Installed fonts (mac Default font) in my Font Book doesn't show up in photoshop CC

Hello, I'm in trouble with fonts.
I'm using mac OS X 10.9.4 mavericks.
I want to use 'HanziPen SC' which is already installed in my Font book but it doesn't show up in photoshop CC.
It has been default font since mavericks, maybe.
And I have same situation in AI as well.
I've already tried to clear cache and reboot photoshop but it didn't work to me.
Does anyone help me?

Thank you for your kindness!
It was solved!
But in my case, the reason why it didn't show up was veeeery stupid...
I checked out Adobe/Adobe Photoshop CC/CT Font Cache/Adobe_Fnt_OSFont.lst
Then, there was 'HanziPen SC' and I found out surprising fact!
Its Writing script was 'Chinese'!!
So I couldn't find 'HanziPen' even though I typed 'HanziPen'.
It has been shown up in Chinese...
What I did is to over write WritingScript,FamilyNameNative,StyleNameNative,FullNameNative to Japanese.
I don't know why it happened to me at all. but anyway, finally I was able to see the one in photoshop CC.
Again, Thank you for your kindness. If you didn't suggested about cache files, I might have not found out the answer.
Thank you!!!!

Mail 8.2 - Fonts & Colors Defaults?

I've just installed Yosemite on my iMac.
Previously I had altered/changed the Fonts & Colors in Mail. So, could someone please tell me (or better, show me) what the default settings are for Fonts & Colors in Mail 8.2? Thanks. Here's what I'm currently seeing:

You seem to have the default colors but not default fonts. I've never touched Mail font or settings on my machine, and mine looks like this.

Replace missing fonts with default fonts

I used fonts in my document that were not downloaded to my computer. I would like to replace these fonts with the default fonts that the computer automatically substituted. Is there any way to find out what fonts were used to make these substitutions?

I realize this is an old post, but maybe it will still help.
Was looking for the same functionality in Photoshop as in InDesign, where upon selecting "Replace all Missing Fonts", there would be a dialog box allowing me to choose the fonts to replace to. Instead, it just arbitrarily selects "Myriad Pro", regardless.
My solve, as clunky as it is, worked OK if your whole document uses the same font for everything. E.g. a font across multiple slides of a presentation.
Using the newer filtering options in the Layer menu, select the "Filter for Type layers".
Select all the type layers with the yellow triangle warning.
Go to your Type menu and select the font you want to replace to.
You will be prompted for each layer to confirm the change, get ready to hit "OK" a lot of times.
Click on the "Filter for Type Layers" option again to restore your full menu list.
Should take care of the issue.
With that said, this is a feature request that is well overdue!
Steve
