How to discover all available font styles for a given family?

I'm using InDesign CS3 and need to discover all of the available styles for any given font. I've found Application.Fonts.itemByName(), but this only returns a single font by the full name. Using ExtentScript in CS3 How can I ask for ALL font styles for any given font family (as displayed in the styles drop-down?)
Thanks!

hey,
I was just searching the web trying to find why this piece of code:
for (var i = 0; i <app.fonts.length;i++) {
app.fonts[i]..... some other code
take 4+ minutes to execute.
app.fonts.everyItem().getElements(); did the trick, sweet!!
However, I would like to ask you whether you know if there is some handout or some guide (possibly online page) for such advanced scripting...
or how did you find this solution?
thank you very much for this post, anyway
regards

How to get all records of 0041 for a given PERNR

I have to display Most Recent Hire and Original Hire date.
So I am using this below code:
0041 - Date Specifications
    rp_provide_from_last p0041 space pn-begda pn-endda.
    IF pnp-sw-found EQ '1'.
      MOVE: p0041-dat01 TO wa_final-dat01,
            p0041-dat03 TO wa_final-dat03,
            p0041-dat02 TO wa_final-dat02.
But for few PERNRs we are having wrong data and below is the explanation from my functional guy:
I figured out the above when I ran the report for all employees and noticed some dates were out of sequence. The reason for the code change is because Payroll has to input NR in the P0041-DAR** field (used in payroll calculations to allow additional contributions to Savings Plans for employees who are near retirement) and it automatically places this future retirement date in P0041-DAT01.
So if I see at PA0041 for a given few PERNRS, am having couple of records and the last record is for the retirement calculations and hence am getting wrong dates into my display. I need the first record for this kind.
Thanks
Kiran

Hi,
here is the piece of code using field symbols for accessing dates from pa0041....
FIELD SYMBOLS
FIELD-SYMBOLS:<f_dar01> TYPE ANY,
                        <f_dat01> TYPE ANY,
                         <f>       TYPE ANY.
form read_pa0041 .
DATA:    l_date               TYPE dardt,
           l_date_type          TYPE datar.
CLEAR : v_data ,
          v_date ,
          v_days .
v_cnt = 1.
DO 12 TIMES.
    CONCATENATE 'p0041-dar' v_cnt INTO v_data.
    CONDENSE v_data NO-GAPS.
    ASSIGN (v_data) TO <f_dar01>.
    IF <f_dar01> = 'U5'.
      CONCATENATE 'p0041-dat' v_cnt INTO v_data.
      CONDENSE v_data NO-GAPS.
      ASSIGN (v_data) TO <f_dat01>.
      v_date = <f_dat01>.
      EXIT.
    ENDIF.
    v_cnt = v_cnt + c_1.
ENDDO.
then you can use the date fetched in v_date as per your requirement..
IF NOT v_date IS INITIAL.
I hope u will get some help
Thanks & Regards

Is there a way to apply all the font styles before importing the file

Hi,
I've some text as below in a text file that needs to be imported into InDesign.
"Law of Civil Procedures"
And in InDesign this is to be made bold. I want to know if there is a way to make it bold directly and then import it into InDesign, I'm asking this as I have approximately 200 pages that needed with all the font styles applied. This would be very helpful if i can first apply the font styles and then import it into InDesign.

Hi Salah,
Thanks for your Answer. I'm completely new to indesign, i'm basically an XSLT Developer. My question in brief is as below.
We have to make books in InDesign, and the content we receive would be in XML Format and also an RTF file is given with same content, what we do currently is copy and paste the text in InDesign document and start formatting te content accordingly. But we are having huge volumes like more than 6000 pages and similarly we are having 8-12 vilumes, i want to know if we can get the styles directly in InDesign and start working on them.
For eg: we have the below content
<para style="left"><num style="bold">1(1)</num> <b>[Short title and commencement]</b></para>
Here there should be a para created and the number should be bold. I'm really unable to understand how to do it. please help me with this. And also our vendors need the IDML file along with the PDF. please let me know how i can do this.
Also please suggest me some good tutorials regarding this.
Thanks.

Not able to get font style for some fonts

Hi,
I am getting font style(like regular, bold, italic etc) like this-
while (count < fontCount) {//loop , which iterate throgh used fonts.
                                                  ATE::IFont currentFont = fontRefArray.Item(count);
                                                  if (!currentFont.IsNull()) {
                                                            FontRef fontRef = currentFont.GetRef();
                                                            AIFontKey fontKey = NULL;
                                                            result = sAIFont->FontKeyFromFont(fontRef, &fontKey);
                                                            result = sAIFont->GetUserFontName(fontKey, fontname, 50);
                                                            result = sAIFont->GetPostScriptFontName(fontKey, psname, 50);
                                                            result = sAIFont->GetFontStyleName(fontKey, stylename, 50);
                                                            result = sAIFont->GetFontFamilyUIName(fontKey, familyname, 50);
For some fonts(not all the fonts) , Style name is comming as empty string, however for other fonts its working. Not sure why its working for some fonts and not for others. Other font properties are coming fine for all fonts.
When its failing, result is not kNoErr, but i dont know that how to get the exact error?Please help me in this issue.
Regards,
Harsh

Hi A. Patterson,
Thanks for your suggestion.
I tried GetFontStyleUINameUnicode() also but its also returning the emply string for style name for some of the fonts only difference is that error is kNoErr for all fonts. May be there is some problem with those specific fonts(who knows? ). m keep digging this.

Harsh

How does one change the font size for folders and/or file lists in the Bookmarks Library?

How does one change the font size for folders and/or file lists in the '''Bookmarks''' Library?
Since the upgrade to version 9.0.1 of Firefox, the Bookmarks feature changes are confusing me. They seem to be confusing themselves as well. The list of bookmarks has changed. The font size is so small that my aging eyes cannot read it without fogging the screen with my breath. Some folders are out of alphabetical order (where I know they were previously good), and some are missing altogether (folders to which I frequently add references).
As for missing or deranged files or folders, was there something that I should have done or now need to do to recover those after the upgrade (or before)?
With regard to font size,
1. there is no “Edit Bookmarks” or like option to edit the list in this version
2. the “zoom” option in the “view” list of functions is greyed out when in “Show All Bookmarks” window
3. expanding the browser window has no effect on font size
4. “Preferences” settings for font size has no effect in that window either, including advanced settings
5. “Help” offers none that I can find.
Can any of you Help?!?

How does one define a default style for a custom Flex component?

How does one define a default style for a custom Flex component?
hello
I created a new set of Flex component library slib.swc (Flex 4.5). Would also like to have a default style. defaults.css file, making it the default style of the component library.
Like flex the builder install directory of sdks \ 4.5.0 \ frameworks out \ libs directory has a spark.swc file, open with Winrar will see defaults.css this file. Defaults.css file defines the default style of the flex spark components.
How can it be achieved?
As follows
slib.swc contains a CLabelEx components, and a defaults.css file
defaults.css source file as follows:
@ namespace s "library :/ / ns.adobe.com / flex / spark";
@ namespace mx "library :/ / ns.adobe.com / flex / mx";
@ namespace cn "http://os.slib.cn";
cn | CLabelEx
        styBackgroundAlpha: 1;
        styBackgroundColor: # 569CC0;
        styBorderAlpha: 1;
        styBorderColor: # 569CC0;
        styBorderWeight: 1;
        styCornerRadius: 3;
In slib.swc the application MyLabel.mxml of the source file as follows:
<? xml version = "1.0" encoding = "utf-8"?>
<s: Application, the xmlns: fx = "http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009
                           xmlns: s = "library :/ / ns.adobe.com / flex / spark"
                           xmlns: mx = "library :/ / ns.adobe.com / flex / mx"
                           xmlns: cn = "http://os.slib.cn
                           the minWidth = "955" The minHeight = "600">
        <fxeclarations>
        </ fxeclarations>
        <cn:CLabelEx x="67" y="112"/>
</ s: Application>
I hope CLabelEx default use cn | CLabelEx, style to display its appearance.
I refer to above approach, but failed to achieve. Can you please re-Detailed
Thanks!

dj is right. Any Folder can be a picture folder.
Create a root level folder and add it to your Pictures Library in Windows. It will show up with all the scattered pictures from other programs. It can even be a different dirve if you like. You can even specify one to be the default save location for pictures in this dialog.
Navigate to Pictures in your Libraries in Windows Explorer Right Click and select Properties.

How do I change the font style

How do I change the font style?

You almost certainly do not; Acrobat is not a word processor. Font styles, when they can be changed at all, are often a different font (bold, italic) or separate graphics (underline).
Where do you want to change them? There are an amazing number of places in Acrobat to enter text.

CS2 Not reading all available fonts

Hello,
I just purchased a new Dell with an XP Professional Downgrade software package and have installed my CS2 Creative Suite on it.
When I open either Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign, it appears many standard fonts (found in Control Panel / Fonts) , including 'Arial Black' are not available, though on my Adobe Acrobat Professional they are. (They are also available in my Microsoft Word Software).
I have read a few adobe trouble reports of this being a problem in InDesign, but the problems there are not what I am having.
When I open up say Photoshop and create a document, in the available fonts, my first choice begins with 'Agency FB', followed by 'Algerian', then 'Arial', and then 'Arial Rounded'. This is the same in Illustrator and InDesign.
Yet in Adobe Acrobat, missing fonts such as 'Arial Black', 'Arial Narrow' are available.
Also, in Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Fonts ..... there are fonts there that are available in Adobe Acrobat, but not in my Photoshop, like Adobe Caslon Pro.
Anyone have any ideas as to why my Photoshop, Illustator or InDesign are not reading all available fonts?
Again, I transferred my CS2 from an older computer to a Dell that is equipped with Windows Vista Business with the Downgrade to Windows XP Professional.
I know CS2 is not compatible with Windows Vista, but I was under the understanding that the Downgrade to Windows XP Pro would give me a Windows XP Pro Operating system, avoiding the problem of my CS2 not being compatible with Windows Vista.
Everything else appears to be working properly (as far as I can see)
Thanks in advance for any help / insight / solutions.

How do you set the font color for a specific entire row inside a JTable?

How do you set the font color for a specific entire row inside a JTable?
I want to change the font color for only a couple of rows inside a JTable.
I've seen some ways to possibly do this with an individual cell.
Clarification on changing the font color in an individual cell would be helpful too if
there is no easy way to do this for a row.

hai,
Try out with this piece of code.Create your table and assign the renderer to each column in the table.
CellColorRenderer m_CellColorRenderer = new CellColorRenderer();
for(int i=0;i<your_JTable.getColumnCount();i++)
your_JTable.getColumnModel().getColumn(i).setCellRenderer(m_CellColorRenderer);
class CellColorRenderer extends JLabel implements TableCellRenderer
CellColorRenderer()
setOpaque(true);
setHorizontalAlignment(LEFT);
setVerticalAlignment(CENTER);
setBackground(Color.white);
setForeground(Color.black);
protected void setValue(Object value)
     setText((value == null) ? "" : value.toString());
public Component getTableCellRendererComponent(JTable table,Object value,boolean isSelected, boolean hasFocus, int row,int column)
     if(isSelected == true)
          setForeground(Color.red);
     else
          setForeground(Color.black);
     setValue(value);
     return this;

How can i find differnet output types for a given sales order ?

hi all,
answer my question please........?
how can i find differnet output types for a given sales order ?

hi
check in NACO transaction if you have assigned access sequence to your output ytpes and if you have ticked checkbox "Access to output conditions" - otherwise it will not even try to access condition records.
From help :
Access to output conditions
Indicates whether the system determines the output by searching for valid
condition records.
Procedure
If you want the system to search condition records for the appropriate
output, mark the field.
Note
If you leave the field blank and if you are processing sales, shipping,
or billing documents, the system automatically determines output from
information stored in the customer master record.

C Programming: How can we get the filesystem name for a given file-path?

C Programming: How can we get the filesystem name for a given file-path?
Say I have a filepath=/mnt1/file1
Using some OS API like stat, can I get the Filesystem /mnt ?
Thanks in advance,
-V

Enter the command up to the point of entering the file path and add a space, then drag the file into the terminal window. It will fill out the path.
If you need to go further into the contents of the Application package, you can continue with /Contents...
Another way is to start typing and then hit Tab to auto-complete. It will stop where it can't determine the next letter.
So, type /App tab and it will fill in /Applications. Type a / and start with the name of the app, then tab and it should complete. Continue till you have the correct path.
Spaces will be replaced with \<space>, so, App Store would end up as /Applications/App\ Store.app
