Setting color of fonts in the font menu

I use cmd-T to select a font while composing in Mail 2.0.7.
I would like to know how to enter a choice in Favorites, for example, that has a specific color.
I know it is possible -- one of my Recently Used is already red. I have tried generating a font which is blue and clicking on "add to favorites" but the font is always black. I have also dragged the red font from Recently Used to Favorites, but on arrival it is black.
Does anyone know how to do this simple thing?

Michael, I have tried to duplicate what you see, sent a message with a red font, but it doesn't show up in my Recently Used list as red.
Also dragging colors to the font window does not seem to work, I'm not sure you can do this at all.

Settings>General>Accessibility>Increase Contrast
Settings>General>Accessibility>Bold Text
are some settings that may help.
There are other settings there ...they may not be to your liking but try them all anyways.
But that's about all you can do for now...except to voice your opinion to Apple here:

How I can disable unnecessary fonts from the font menu?

How I can disable unnecessary fonts from the font menu?
I'm so frustrated to always browse the kilometer-long font menu. There are Chinese, Arabic, Thai, Japan etc. fonts. I will never need these fonts!
The platform is the iMac and Maverics. Illustrator is a version CS6. All software is the latest version of.
I get off some of these fonts using Apple's Font Book, but still there will be unnecessary Chinese, Arabic, Thai, Japan etc. fonts.
I also have Suitcase Fusion 4, but that doesn't help in this case because I can't disable system fonts etc. I also tried the "Monolingual" software. Monolingual is a software for removing unnecessary language resources from OS X. But still I see many foreign language fonts in font menu.

I could do with an answer to this question too
The fonts I don't want on my system are these (all Adobe covert additions as far as I can tell):

How do I save a PDF ready for print. I have a problem with the fonts. The fonts are blurry after printing. There is a trick in saving PDF.

Hi el_giclee,
Important to note from the beginning is that when you create your Photoshop document make sure you chose 300 Pixels/inch as your resolution.
I'm interested in seeing your Save Adobe PDF dialog box after you choose to save the PDF.
Could you post a screenshot of this dialog box with the Compression menu selected on the left side?
It's a good idea to select High Quality Print or Press Quality in the Adobe PDF Preset menu at the top of this box. It will automatically select the best default settings for a printed piece.

Hi,
I created a PDF from a Word document that used Cambria font, and when I select it in Acrobat to try to change the font I get "The change to a different font was not done because the chosen font and the font encodings in the document differ and could not be resolved"
How can I change the font and why is it preventing me from doing so?
Thanks,
Juan

Juan,
No, Acrobat is not a word processor.
More to the point Acrobat lets one "work" PDF and PDF is not a file format designed as a word processing, editing, formating, or page layout file format.
PDF is, essentially, a "final destination" format.
What it is is described in the ISO Standard for PDF (ISO 32000-1).

Hi All,
Could you please provide me idea or sample program how to set colors in cells depending the conditions in alvtree.

When running vim in a terminal, it will use whatever colour scheme is defined by the terminal. You should have a look at this thread:

How do I make the menu title a different color when it is the active menu in Spry horizontal menu?

How do I make the menu title a different color when it is the active menu in Spry horizontal menu?
Dreamweaver CS5.5
Apple OS X.6.8
View site at: http://dorsay-easton-indian-law.com/staging/index.html
Steps:
1. Click link to land on Home page
2. View Home link in Spry horizontal navigation menu
Actual:
Home menu title is the same color as all of the others.
Expected:
The title of the active menu is color: #FFC.
I was hoping that a:active would give me this functionality, but that's not how it is described. Any suggestions are welcome!

Nothing I have tried in the template makes the BODY tag editable. That's why I'm wondering how to disconnect the template from the individual pages. Adding an ID to each body tag is a prerequisite of the how-to page you supplied.
You don't make the <body> tag editable in a Template.
You make attributes of the <body> tag editable.
Don't disconnect the Template from the child pages.
Specify editable tag attributes in a template
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/dreamweaver/cs/using/WScbb6b82af5544594822510a94ae8d65-7aa3a.h tml
In the Template:
Select the <body> tag (either in the Tag selector or click inside the <body> tag in Code View)
Modify > Templates > Make Attribute Editable
Select ID from the Attribute dropdown menu
If there's no existing ID attribute then click Add and type ID into the next dialogue box
Attribute: ID
Check the box to "Make attribute editable"
Enter anything into the Label field as a default e.g. foo
OK
Dreamweaver will change the <body> tag to read <body id="@@(foo)@@"....
Now the ID is editable
Save the Template and update the child page
In each child page:
Modify > Template Properties
Select the id attribute from the list (it's probably the only one listed)
Change its name in the box to whatever name matches your CSS rule for the active state for that page
OK
Save

Recently while browsing with TenFourFox 31.6.0 or reading an email in Thunderbird 3.1.20 with my PPC MacG4 with OSX 10.4.11,the above message pops in " ... a problem has been detected with the font -, in the font file $C quit all applications and remove this font file or replace it with a new version". I don't know where to start, not ever having seen this message. :-)) Any suggestions much appreciated. Thanks.

Hi Raymon, it sounds like file corruption, I doubt there is a real font file called that.
Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
(Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive & clear caches.)
If still no change after a regular boot, then open Font Book in Applications & see if you can find it there, or have Font Book Validate all fonts.

I can't change my font from the character menu, how do I fix this?

Basically, the only way I can change my font is through the Type>Font menu up top (and by right clicking), but the list in the character palette and the control bar are empty. I can type in the name of the font I want and it will complete it, but even then it doesn't change anything. It is really inefficient for me to have to scroll through all the fonts every time, especially when I have no idea what font I want (or if the one I want is at the bottom of the list).
It started doing this just out of the blue a few months ago, before then it was working fine, no idea what set it off. I can't print from Illustrator either, maybe it's part of the same problem (that started earlier).
My version is CS2. Windows XP. I don't think that my boss is going to upgrade either in the near future. It's a small company, we don't have IT help.
I've done some searching and have already tried:
-uninstalling the old Illustrator 9 that was on here
-deleting the aiprefs file
-deleting the entire folder it was in
-deleting all of the Adobefnt*.lst files I could find
-restarting Illustrator, the computer several times
I haven't tried reinstalling Illustrator yet. Don't know where the CD is, so it's a last resort.

Oh dear. It looks like I have made things much, much worse.
(I did indeed do my deleting with Illustrator closed, and tried moving before deleting)
I opened it up again and did some work. I tried saving my file (in .ai format, variety of shapes, layers, fonts), when it told me that an unknown error occured, then another message that said something like "Can't finish previewing, not enough memory ID=-108", and then it crashed. Turns out that now it doesn't like fonts at all and it isn't too keen on shapes either.
Found the CD. Uninstalled CS2, told it to delete my preferences file but keep the computer activated. Killed Adobe reader while I was at it (haven't reinstalled yet). Looked through my program files for any traces it left behind but didn't see anything (under Program Files>Adobe, and Documents and Settings>Application Data>Adobe). Restarted the computer and reinstalled Illustrator (well, I tried repairing first but that didn't do anything). And nothing has changed. Still can't access the fonts, and now I have errors opening/saving files too. There was another, new error, something something 6654 I believe.
I'm baffled.

How to use the fonts in the graphics menu

I am looking to add text from the graphics options on the right hand side of the screen. When I double click or drag one of the text options to my project a text box appears, however the text is not the one selected from the options on the right – instead the text appears and I can change the text from the list of standard fonts at the lower left - and the font I double clicked from the menu on the left isn't listed.
How can I select and use the fonts listed on the graphics list at the right? I am looking to use the gray and black "outline" font.
Thank you!

When I press the "+" at the lower right corner of the screen I am presented with, among other things, a selection of font types. I am able to change the text color in the graphics menu but can't figure out how to use one of the fonts listed in the menu. For example, from the graphics menu I select "type" then "text" and from the fonts listed I double click "outline" and a text box appears on my project with "your text here", however the font is "rosewood std" and the only fonts available are from the typical list - no outline font as listed in the graphics menu on the right. When I double click the text type "outline" the font doesn't change. I think I am missing a step somewhere but can't figure it out. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

How can I change the font in the page menu across the top?

I would like to change the font and its color in the page menu across the top of the website I'm building. The inspector doesn't give me the option nor does the font menu.

The easiest way to do this is to hide the default navigation and build your own.....

Dreamweaver Help | Add Edge and Web fonts to the Font list | Creative Cloud

This question was posted in response to the following article: http://helpx.adobe.com/dreamweaver/using/typekit-font-support.html

Hi Oyvay,
Assuming you are talking about the standard Font-Stacks (Font-Family options shipped with Dreamweaver by default), they are available under the "Custom Font Stacks" tab available under "Manage Fonts" dialog. You can access this dialog by selecting "Manage Fonts..." option listed in the Font-Family drop-down combos in any of the following dialogs:
1) Properties Panel,
2) CSS Styles Panel,
3) Page Properties dialog,
4) New / Edit CSS rule definition dialog.
Alternatively, you can use the "Modify --> Manage Fonts..." menu option from Dreamweaver's main menu also.
The older font-stacks that were available default have been replaced with a latest and updated set of fonts. The older options - Arial, Verdana, ... are outdated. Your existing pages created with earlier versions would still function the same but the pages created from now on can use the updated fonts set.
You can go through the below article for further information on the Adobe Edge Web Fonts integration with Dreamweaver. And in case you have any more queries, please do post back. Thanks..

How can I get the example fonts from the font file Programmatically?

Hi Friends,
         I am doing one mac application for the fonts management. Now I would like to Preview the Font in the NSTextView. This is my coding for the textView.
    NSTextView *text3=[[NSTextView alloc]initWithFrame:NSMakeRect(250,500,450,30)];
    [text3 setString:@"ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ"];
    [text3 setFont:[NSFont fontWithName:@"GangofThree" size:40]];
    [[[self window] contentView] addSubview:text3];
Because I have set the string in English for the NSTextView I can't able to view the other languages characters.I got the character set of the font file by using this code.
   NSCharacterSet *characterset = (NSCharacterSet *) CTFontCopyCharacterSet (fontRef);
This Font is greek font.Now My question is how can I able to get the greek characters from this characterset.

Your text string would certainly have to be in Greek itself, not Latin. No normal font just translates Latin letters to Greek, they use other codepoints reserved for Greek letters.

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.
