Hoefler text ornaments font is not displaying correctly in Pages

I've imported an existing document from Appleworks into Pages. I am using Hoefler Text Ornaments (HTO) font occasionally, using the pointing finger. Pages indicates that the font is HTO, but displays the following key: ']' which is the proper key to press in HTO to get the pointing finger. All the ornaments are missing. I've used keyboard viewer and indeed the viewer indicates that there are no ornaments only normal text.
I've confirmed that the font is named correctly, that the finger is part of the font, and that the original document displays correctly. I'm guessing that the HTO font is corrupted in Pages. What can I do?
Thanks very much for your help.

Frank,
You're absolutely right. There's a button in the character palette labeled Favorites that will let you store glyphs. I think you and Gerry both have workable ideas. You can use the character palette or store special characters in a document.
A question, Gerry: why use another program to store the characters? Since the user is already working in Pages, why not create a Pages document, then paste in the character he/she might want to save? What am I not understanding about this?

  • URL parameter value with : not displayed correctly on page

    Hi,
    I am working on a page with an interactive report.One of the report columns is hyperlinked to another page (Delete Page).This link passes an id and a title to the Delete page such that its displays a confirmation message to the end user before actually performing the delete.If the title contains a ":" the text after the ":" is not displayed on the page (albeit visible in the URL on the top)
    Is this because the ":" seperates parameters in an APEX URL and therefore the text after the ":" is taken as the next URL parameter?
    How can we solve this problem?
    Regards,
    Priya Jetley

    Hi
    Yes - Apex will see the ":" as a parameter separator and will ignore everything after any that exist in the "with these values" parameter at the end of the url.
    You can get around this in two ways:
    1 - Escape your title - replace ":" with "%3A" in your sql statement
    2 - Do not pass the title in the link but use a computation on the delete page to retrieve this value for display

  • Fonts Do Not Display Correctly in Safari and Firefox

    Certain fonts do not display smoothly in Safari and Firefox. They appear to have little pieces of the letters missing. I'm sure others have experienced this problem before but I could not find how to fix this. On the Apple Discussions the fonts look fine... on Google for example, they look messed up. I do not know specifically which font(s) are displayed weird but it happens frequently. This happens in Safari and Firefox on my MacPro and MacBookPro. Is there a setting to fix this?
    Thanks,
    -flash

    Hello Flash, welcome to Apple discussions; )
    Look for Helvetica Fractions and Times Phonetic Fonts, if you have them,
    they can be the usual suspects.
    Check the Text encoding in both Safari & FF, under the "View" menu.
    In System preferences-> Personal (top section) in Appearance tab->
    on the last portion of the panel Font smoothing Style: set that to Automatic
    If those don't help, see this users tip excellent article Kurt Lang's ~ Font Management in Mac OS X

  • Symbol font is not displaying correctly on mozilla 23.0.1?

    I am displaying a html page inside a frame having some Maths symbols, using SYMBOL font. but these symbols are not display correct on mozilla browser. provide some solution.

    Hi sangeeta, the problem with writing code to solve this problem is that you likely need to create a table or a pair of arrays to contain the corresponding characters. As long as you are going to do that, it might be easier to edit the pages. Or add an external script to those pages to "fix" the references.
    If you are saying that the HTML pages are out of your control, that's harder...
    Is it an option to load the page dynamically onto your server so it can be processed by ASP.Net and then served using a URL from your server?
    If not, are your page and the framed page on the same server? In that case, perhaps a JavaScript function that "fixes" the page could be useful.
    If not, it's hard to see how you can overcome the "same origin" security constraints and get to the framed page.

  • The fonts are not displaying correctly

    When I open a text box and type all of the fonts are all basically the same.  They donot display correctly.  I uninstalled and re-installed photoshop elements 11 and they still do not work.

    Hi,
    Have you tried resetting the Type tool?
    Click on the icon ...
    ...... select Reset Tool from the drop down list.
    If that doesn't work, please let know which operating system you are running on.

  • Vietnamese fonts are not displayed correctly.

    The Vietnamese input program worked fine in the previous version but in version 4 the texts are not aligned correctly. See this http://i485.photobucket.com/albums/rr219/september17th/untitled-16.jpg

  • When i open the add ons page in firefox the pages do not display correctly the pages only show text and are in lists

    Hi,
    If you're using a theme you can try to temporarily switch to the '''Default''' theme in Tools > Add-ons > Appearance. If the problem persists, please check if this happens in [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe%20Mode Safe Mode]. Safe mode disables the installed '''Extensions''', and themes ('''Appearance''') in '''Tools''' ('''Alt''' + '''T''') > '''Add-ons'''. Hardware acceleration is also temporarily disabled - the manual setting is '''Tools''' > '''Options''' > '''Advanced''' > '''General''' > [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Options%20window%20-%20Advanced%20panel?as=u '''Use hardware acceleration when available''']. All these settings/options/add-ons can also be individually or collectively disabled/enabled/changed in Firefox normal mode to check if an extension, theme, option or hardware acceleration is causing issues. Disabling/enabling hardware acceleration, and some types of add-ons in normal mode may require a Firefox restart.

  • Some fonts are not displayed correctly

    We are developing an application where in the font for the whole application can be changed from a particular font dialog.the problem is that although it works fine for majority of the fonts, rectangular boxes are displayed for Impact, Marlett, Symbol, Webdings, wingdings font.
    i am doing a
    GraphicsEnvironment ge =GraphicsEnvironment.getLocalGraphicsEnvironment(); for getting the fonts and displaying it in a JList.Is there any way of suppressing these fonts from being displayed to the user ?

    Yes these fonts have one feature - see http://developer.java.sun.com/developer/bugParade/bugs/4279855.html
    so you can check them by next way :
         GraphicsEnvironment ge = GraphicsEnvironment.
    getLocalGraphicsEnvironment();
         Font[] fonts = null;
         if (ge != null) {
              fonts = ge.getAllFonts();
         for (int i=0; i < fonts.length; i++) {
              fonts.canDisplay('a');

  • FONTS: numbers not displaying correctly

    Hi everyone,
    I just installed the ProggyClean font, and everything displays fine but the numbers on my status bar.
    Any suggestion what could be wrong?
    I'm running the awesome desktop manager.
    Thank you.

    Have yopu gone to Font Book
    Font Book is located in the Applications folder (in the Finder, choose Go > Applications). To manage or view fonts, open Font Book, or double-click a font file.
    High Light all the fonts    ( Shift and click 1st one  Shift and click last one) and
    then select File/Falidate Fonts
    Then making sure all the fonts get a green tick box.

  • Why are TypeKit fonts not displaying correctly in Pages (iWork)?

    I have just subscribed to TypeKit and am experiencing highly peculiar behavior from the two fonts I’m using in Pages (iWork): Basically, fonts in my document don’t respond appropriately to requested changes in style. For example, if I increase the point size by one point using the the formatting commands built into Pages, the font drops a point size. I’ve had the same experience using the kerning command, where the kerning decreases when I have set it to increase. (So far, the only fonts I’ve been using have been Futura PT and Proxima Nova.)
    Look at the example in the screenshot: “FEATURED EXPERT” on the top line shows in Pages as being 24pt Futura PT Book. However, “SOLO,” a few lines down, which is definitely displaying as smaller, shows as 25pt Futura PT
    In a potentially related issue, when I reopened this same document today, text boxes were suddenly too small for the text (again in Futura PT and Proxima Nova). It was as though Pages was suddenly reading those two fonts differently.
    I have had no issues with other (non-TypeKit) fonts in the same document.
    Anyone else experiencing anything similar? Any suggested fixes? I'm reluctant to unsync/resync the two affected fonts (the only ones I have sync'd to date) because I don't want to wreck the document!

    Thanks, Christopher. After I posted my original question, I did come to realize that it was Helvetica not Future PT showing. Here’s what happened, and here’s why I still need some guidance…
    The document dropped Future PT because when my wifi signal dropped, the Creative Cloud app displayed this error symbol (see graphic) in my menu bar.
    At that point, my computer could no longer access my TypeKit fonts and the document reverted to the system's Helvetica default.
    This was not an isolated incident.
    If I turn wifi off manually, there is no issue and CC continues to operate in the background as it should, with TypeKit fonts still available.
    However, if the wifi drops out on its own, I get the above error symbol and I then lose access to my TypeKit fonts. Very rarely, the CC app will self-correct when the signal is restored. More often than not, I must quit the CC app and relaunch it in order to get things back to normal.
    This doesn’t strike me as normal behavior Have you ever encountered anything like it? Do you know of  a fix that will allow the CC app to self-correct when the wifi signal is restored?
    Any assistance will be appreciated! 
    Thanks!
    P.S. TypeKit troubleshooting doesn’t address this particular issue.

  • Fonts do not display correctly  - or only erratically!

    I am using Lucinda Grande regular 15 on a black background in my website:
    http://www.visionstatement.org.au/home.html
    In iweb it looks great - on safari the font is thickened up by a few points - in fact it looks like a bold version of the regular font.
    Interesting it doesn't happen every time - in one of my web pages it looks perfectly how it should
    http://www.visionstatement.org.au/pcprep.html
    If you compare these two fonts you'll see the difference - but trust me - same font every time.
    I even tried copying the font from the correctly displayed page and pasting it into the text of the incorrectly displaying page - the problem did not resolve.
    This is therefore not a browser issue - so I am wondering if it is to do with the other elements on the page - or maybe the way I created the text in the first place.
    I appreciate anybody's help with this - and thanks - you guys do an awesome job at this support page!
    Happy Mal

    No - support has run out on both iwork and my computer.
    It is obviously a problem for many people.
    It would be good to solve it - any ideas on how we can get their attention?

  • Fonts are not displaying correctly

    Hello,
    I was not quite sure where to post this problem, but I hope it will work out here.
    The problem: Sometimes my laptop (HP Elitebook 2540p connected to a dockingstation) acts very weird. The letters (inside any program) become black/grey rectangles for no reason. Then I have to reboot my laptop and everything works fine, again.
    I think a picture says more than hundred words, so here it is:
    http://i.imgur.com/pwFkc0J.png?1
    As you can see I am using i3 desktop environment and this "problem" exists across applications.
    Is this some kind of hardware/graphics issue or something software specific?? It does not look very good
    Hope someone can help me..?

    I doubt this is a hardware issue – hardware issues are agnostic of specific characters, as this is the case it seems:
    There's no 'c' or 't' not corrupted and on the other hand – it seems – no corrupted 'd's.
    Have you just tried setting the font to something different?

  • Font Preview in Font Book not Displaying Correctly

    I just got my new mac and I noticed that font book previews appear strange for some of my fonts. Here's a picture demonstrating what I mean.
    I've already made an attempt to clear font caches, deleting the fontbook pl file, validating fonts (nothing wrong so far), and while it seems to have fixed the preview display of a large majority of my fonts, I've yet to resolve this matter completely. Please help. Thanks.

  • Since upgrading to Firefox 33, The open sans font did not display correctly when specified by a website.

    Some of the vertical lines in the fonts are double width like a mixture of bold and normal font weight. I have hardware accellaration disabled. The problem is not fixed when I change default font settings. The problem is not resolved be resetting zoom to 0.
    Inspect Element identifies the problem happens when the website selects open Sans. If I stop sites selecting fonts and force the defaults I don not get the problem. Therefore the problem is with Firefox 33.1 rendering certain fonts specified by websites.
    My machine is windows vista and Open Sans is not shown in the font list. However this was not a problem with previous versions of Firefox.
    I did need to do a reset of firefox parameters during the upgrade to 33 so maybe ther eis some other parameter which needs changing to help render fonts which are not loaded on the machine?

    Here is a screenshot:
