All fonts appear in caps.

For some reason, all of my fonts are appearing in CAPS. Any adjustments known?

In your Characters Palette, I will bet that All-Caps is selected:
Unselect that, and you should be good to go.
Good luck,

Nearly all fonts appear the same in Mail; otherwise they show up VERY tiny

Is there a setting in Mail that turns the font size down several levels? Because when I try a font in Word and then in Mail, it shows on my screen in Mail less than 1/2 the size it does in Word. Same font. Same point size.
Bold & italic dont seem to work either...What did I do? I reinstalled the bundled software last night - not the apps - but no effect.
This has something to do with loading to many fonts from MacFonts and getting fed up with the long load time for Office apps.
Thanks

Are you using RTF or Plain Text for message composition?
Bold & italic will not work when using Plain Text.
If there is a font conflict between downloaded and existing fonts, this can cause problems.

All the fonts are in caps and the cap lock is not on. PSE 8

all the fonts are in caps and the cap lock is not on. PSE 8 Why is this happening and how do I fix it?

Suggest that you reset preferences. This will frequently correct things like you are experiencing.
Windows
Step 1. Hold down the Alt + Ctrl + Shift keys as you click on the icon to open Elements. When asked if you want to delete the settings file, say yes.
Step 2. Reset the preferences .
Step 3. Close Elements and let the file regenerate.

All of my text/fonts is in CAPS(with no cap lock on). How do I turn this off?

My PSE text(all fonts) will only produce CAPS tho my caps lock is off. Can anyone help me turn them off? Thanks.

Hi,
This is usually fixed by resetting the Type tool.
Since you didn't say which version of Photoshop Elements you are using see if the following helps.
For recent versions
For earlier vesrions
Please let us know if it fixes your problem

I downloaded the latest version of Firefox 13 and ALL webpages appear wrong

I downloaded latest version of Firefox 13 after getting prompt that I didn't have latest version of Firefox. No webpage looks correct including this one. All webpages appear "plain". For example where I am typing in details right now there should be a box or something to show me where to put details - no box - just blank space. I use Google as my homepage. The Firefox logo used to be on the Google home page but it's missing. When I go to Google Mail there are no boxes to check off delete mail etc... when I go to the same pages using Internet Explorer all pages show correctly so something is wrong on Firefox. I uninstalled and re-installed Firefox without deleting my personal settings etc but this made no difference. If my only option is to delete all my info I will have to do that but have been on Firefox and really don't want to lose this info. I have checked all of the settings when I looked at not all webpages appear correctly in HELP and all setting are correct. What do I do? I don't want to go back to using IE but that is basically what I am having to do right now to function to do banking etc...

Make sure that you allow pages to choose their colors and that you haven't enabled High Contrast in the Accessibility settings.

Keynote PDF output: fonts appear "bold", milky background

Hello,
we observed two problems when exporting a Keynote presentation into PDF ("export" and "print" exhibit the same behaviour):
(1) when opening the PDF in Preview, the medium-size fonts appear to be "bolder" than in the presentation, small fonts look OK. We have tried several fonts (e.g. Trebuchet), the effect seems to be independent of the font. Colors look exactly as in the presentation.
(2) when opening the same PDF in Acrobat 8 Pro on either Mac or PC, the fonts look OK but all colours look as if through a "milky glass layer". This is an effect which is probably related to some color space conversion.
A similar topic was discussed last November, but no satisfying solution was presented. Many thanks in advance for any help with this.

It doesn't seem to matter what the Registry/Ordering is - I still get the error. I do recall that setting it to something known like Adobe and Japan1 had other effects, though, such as incorrectly chosen glyphs, though those could have been related to other issues we had at the time.
Since any value seems to prompt the issue, it leaves me even more confused as to what could be the root of this problem. Distiller seems to bypass embedding CMaps by using the "Identity" encoding and simply writing the glyph indeces into the text stream. Does Preflight just not like embedded CMaps?
I have uploaded a sample document to acrobat.com if anyone wants to take a look. It has several changes from the original description, in an attempt to root out the problem. Here is the URL:
https://share.acrobat.com/adc/document.do?docid=4284cd55-d710-411f-8a91-51359564a78b
Thanks again for any help.

How do I change caps of an OpenType font to small caps in my InDesign cc document?

Greetings, Community. It would be great if I could discover how to change caps of an OpenType font to small caps in my InDesign cc document. That's the simple question.
To be more exact, I have an 18-page play that contains stage directions in caps in parentheses, which I would like to change to small caps. The font I'm using is an OpenType, Minion Pro, with small caps.
Another thing is, I'd ideally like to be able to do that without changing all caps in the document, and also, to not have to convert the caps to lower case in order to do it.
My source document (which I Placed in my InDesign document) is Microsoft Word 2011 for Mac.
I did go to Microsoft to find out how to do it in Word, but could only find a solution for Word for Windows.
I did try their solution anyhow (a macro) but it didn't work.
     Thanks a lot. It's great being in InDesign even though I had my good years with QuarkXpress, which eventually became impossible for me.

Japanese fonts appear larger in Flash Player 10.0.42.34

Hi
We're experiencing a strange problem in a flash swf object embedded on an aspx page in a .net web application.
Environment :
Adobe Flash Player : 10.0.42.34
Browesers : IE 6 , 7 Firefox 3.5
Client machine configuration :
     Windows XP SP3
     East Asian Language Pack installed.
     Flash player version 10.0.42.34 installed.
We're displaying Japanese text on the page through the flash player.
What happens is that randomly on some client machines the Japanese fonts appear too large in size while on others
they appear perfectly fine.
We also have English , Honkkong and Chinese versions of the page ..all of which work perfectly fine across all client machines.
The issue is only with the Japanese version.
Any pointers on this guys .... ?
Please help !!!!
Thanks

Sure , here is the url :
http://www.forevermark.com/ja-jp/The-World-of-Forevermark-/Precious-Collection/
On some machines , the Japanese text in the centre section appears very large. ..( see attached snapshot)
We initially encountered this on the version prior to the 10.0.42.34 version.
However even after the upgrading to 10.0.42.34 , the problem still persists .
Thanks

PDFs from CS3, ligatures not showing up on editor's PC, fonts appearance changed

Hi there. I just redesigned a magazine using the Hypatia Sans family, Avenir family and Arno Pro family. Avenir is the one font I have been using. With both Hypatia and Arno, the ligatures totally drop out of the pdf when viewed on a PC. And, when the editor made the edits in the "comment-able" pdf and sent it back to me, really none of the fonts appear right. Nothing looks like Hypatia or Arno or Avenir. The font flow seems to stay put, but that is about it.
I'm trying to pinpoint this a little tighter. But while I'm doing that, I wanted to put this out here on the discussion boards. Since this is an entire magazine, it's not going to be acceptable to proof it this way. I don't know if I can send a pdf to someone at Adobe to look at and see what they think is happening? I'm not finding much on the boards about this either so I don't know if it's a widespread issue or not.

Follow up ...
Kellie and I discussed and problem and then she checked with the editor.
In fact, the editor was putting PDF comments on the InDesign-exported PDF file using MacOS Preview and then saving the file and returning it via e-mail to Kellie. MacOS Preview converted all of the text from Arno Pro, Avenir and Hypatia Sans to MacOS versions of Multiple Master Helvetica and Multiple Master Times fonts which clearly did not have all the glyphs of the original fonts.
The editor was advised to download and install the free Adobe Reader and guess what? The problem went away.
Problem solved!
Sorry folks, but there is absolutely nothing that Adobe can do about this problem other than to continue to advise our customers to avoid PDF reader software that simply doesn't implement or doesn't properly implement the full PDF specification. (Note that this specification is an ISO standard now, not something that is secret or Adobe-proprietary in any way!)

Why do fonts appear in Keynote, but not in Font Folder?

I made a misguided move in adding fonts through Font Book and am trying to restore my fonts to a previous iteration. Strangely though, the fonts appear in Keynote, but not in the usual Fonts folders. Can anyone shed light on why this might be the case? More information can be found, under the Mavericks discussion forum, here.

Suzanne,
As is my guess, there is now something wrong with those fonts. There are utilities, that can possibly repair them - two mentioned in the article. If you have a backup of the fonts, from when they worked, perhaps just going to that, and reinstalling them will solve the issue. I'd hate to think that they might have to be acquired all over again, but that might be "plan D."
Periodically, I will copy all of my fonts to DVD (now - used to be CD), just to have them available for new computers, or OS's. Over the decades, I have lost a few to corruption, that could not be repaired. In several cases, I had an older BU, that did work, but have had to buy a few again. Just checked on my workstation, and I've got 19,362, though seldom more than about 350 ever installed at one time.
This reminds me that it's about time to do another BU, as I will be getting a new workstation and laptop fairly soon, and will need to transfer my fonts to them.
Good luck, and hope that things can be saved - I hate to loose a favorite font.

After upgrading to OS 10.10 some fonts appear blurry. Specifically top menu bar, desktop icons, mail

After upgrading to OS 10.10, some fonts appear blurry. Specifically top menu bar, desktop icons, mail and Safari. This only occurs after the computer has been running for awhile, not immediately after startup. I'm running an iMac, 20 inch, Mid-2007 with the following graphics: ATI Radeon HD 2400 XT 128 MB.
It's not a huge problem, just darn annoying. Thoughts anyone?

Hi,
Please note that this upgrade related problem would very likely be what has been covered by the support document at the link below:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2537
If you also find any files named to include MessageSorting (which would mean you once have upgraded from a version of OSX earlier than 10.4, which is clearly the case for you), remove those, also, but never restore those.
Often this is all that needs to be done, but you might then need to force an overall reindexing via the removal of the Envelope Index. Note the special instructions when forcing the reindexing of IMAP or Exchange accounts in the following:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mail/3.0/en/14019.html
This will force the reindexing of all the POP mailboxes and all On My Mac mailboxes. With regard to any IMAP accounts if you have any, the practical result of this action of removing the account folder, is that with the IMAP account still set up in the Preferences, Mail will connect to the IMAP server and create a new account folder, and while doing so will index the messages in the mailbox folders of the IMAP accounts on the server.
Keep me posted.

Since I installed Helvetica Black, all fonts display in bold, but when I uninstall it, they're fine again.

I've seen many other people having issues with all fonts displaying in bold with the latest Firefox update. For me, the update did nothing, but when I installed Helvetica Black to my computer, many fonts on the web show up in bold where they shouldn't.
I have no problems with any of my other Helvetica weights being installed, just Black.
As a graphic designer, I want to have the font, but I also want to see all the websites with the fonts they intended to use, rather than a default font. Is there any kind of add-on or fix I can use so that I can keep websites in their own fonts, AND have Helvetica Black installed?
Other details:
I have the latest Firefox.
I'm on Windows 7.
4 of my Helvetica weights are fine, the Black is not.

Hi there - I'm having similar bold text issues with a customer's instance of Firefox 5.0.1 running on Windows 7, Home Premium, SP1 on a Lenovo laptop. There are two issues to be exact:
# text that is supposed to be normal weight appears bold
# some text has an incorrect amount of spacing (padding/margin) around it
These symptoms appear only on this one machine and appears to be fine in Firefox 5.0.1 across at least 3 other machines running Win 7 as well as all other browsers (IE, Chrome, Safari) we've tested in across a variety of platforms.
I've attached an image with a side-by-side comparison of the normal view next to the broken view as it appears on this specific machine.
I've tried unchecking the hardware acceleration option and restarting Firefox - did not work.
I've also tried running Firefox in Windows XP compatibility mode (as suggested here: http://www.groovypost.com/howto/how-to/repair-the-google-and-gmail-bold-font-issue/) - did not work.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks.

Private Fonts Appear in Numbers -- How?

I have a family of fonts (Swiss 721) installed privately in my ~/Library/Fonts folder.
When my wife logs into the computer, Swiss 721 does not show up in Pages or in Font Book. If she does a Spotlight search for "Swiss," nothing appears. This is the expected behavior.
However, when she runs Numbers, the Swiss 721 family of fonts shows up. They mostly work: Outline fonts show as outlines. Condensed fonts appear to be condensed. And bold fonts appear bold. They all seem to have spacing problems. There are no font warnings issued when she opens a Numbers document containing any of the Swiss 721 fonts.
I've tried using the atsutil to clear the font cache. I've tried deleting the iWork font cache as well. Neither has corrected the problem. When she starts up Numbers, there are these fonts that she cannot otherwise access. Very odd.
So, how is this font family showing up in Numbers for my wife when it is actually installed privately under my user directory? Somehow Numbers is seeing them, but not perfectly, since, as I mentioned, the spacing is way off.
Thank you,
James Detwiler

That was the solution. Auto activation was turned on.
There was a copy of the font on an external drive. Auto activation allowed that font to be used without being installed. (The font did not display correctly, which alerted us that something odd was happening.)
Thank you!!

Font appears as bold when published

hi all!
This font issue is driving me crazy..I have set the font to helvetica light on my site but when i publish the site on mobileme some sections appears as bold randomly. i have tried highlighting text and changing font type to helvetica light again but even though it appears as light in iweb when published it is still bold.
Is there an easy solution to this please?

I'm having the same issue as shannondasilva. Looks great offline in iweb but as soon as I publish my site the font appears bolder and thicker than it should. Very annoying and not consistent enough for Apple. Anyone worked out a way of making the font appear as it should without having to convert the text to an image, etc. I want my text to be found by google so it needs to remain as text. And yes I'm using standard Helvetica and Arial websafe fonts. Please can someone help here???

All fonts appear in caps.
