Another font problem

When I set a font in iweb (nothing fancy, just arial) and then publish the site. Safari does not understand it and automatically goes to its default font. The fonts look perfect in firefox too...
Seems like quite a significant mistake on apple's part if other browsers are more compatible with their own software than their own?
Any ideas?
thanks

Any clues though?
Sorry, no. Without being able to see it, hard to know if it's more than a local problem or what might cause it.

  • Wine and yet another font problem

    So I upgraded my system (had to load lots of stuff, Xorg, Wine, the kernel..) and now my Wine fonts look like this:
    http://koti.kapsi.fi/anpurola/winecfg.png
    Some fonts are ok, but most of them are unreadable. I mostly run poker clients. I tried to delete my .wine directory, and install fonts again with winetricks, didn't help.
    Does this have something to do with the new Xorg? I had to remove RgbPath and AutoAddDevices from xorg.conf BTW, to get it work.

  • Glitches in address fill-ins with nicknames; default font problem; plus other glitches in Thunderbird 31.3.0 and 31.4.0; can I roll back to an earlier version?

    I am unhappy with the recent upgrade to Thunderbird 31.3.0 and now 31.4.0. My bottom line question is whether I can roll back to the previous version, which was working well for me.
    The problems I have encountered include:
    1. I used to be able to enter a single letter in many cases in the address field, and the autocomplete would fill in the entry that I always use with that single letter. That function has been lost, as has auto fill-in based on the nicknames I have entered in my Address Book. I see there is another thread on this problem (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1036962), but no satisfactory answer so far. Entering a single letter now pulls up completely unrelated address entries that may not even have that letter as part of the name, address or nickname for that unrelated address. I have created new nicknames to try to adapt to this problem, but even these new nicknames no longer work with the 31.4.0 upgrade yesterday, forcing me to create yet more complex and hard-to-remember nicknames to pull up my frequent addressees. This is all very frustrating to me, as I depend on speed and ease when creating messages.
    2. Also, I used to be able to enter a single letter in the address field and then use the mouse to click on the "To:" symbol to the left of the next address line to change the next entry to "Cc:"; doing so would then cause the complete address to fill in in the "To:" address field, and make the next field ready for an entry. That no longer works. If I use that technique, the shortcut that I entered in the first field gets included along with the address (if I'm lucky enough to have the address itself selected now, given the problems I've mentioned above). I now have to press "Enter" in order to get the address in the first field to "take" correctly, and then have to click on the "To:" symbol for the next line as a separate action. Just another inconvenience with the new version.
    3. While still on the subject of addresses, personally I see no reason why the address and subject fields should now be colored blue by default rather than appearing as blank, white fields. I far prefer the old look. And I suspect that changing from the blue color to a nice, clean, white field takes time and computer resources that slow things down.
    4. The default font (Times in my case) no longer "takes" when replying to or forwarding messages. I've checked Tools/Options/Composition, and Times is still shown as my default font. However, when I start to type (in a reply with the original message quoted or in a forwarded message), the result is "Variable Width". In order to get Times, I need to highlight the block of text after typing, including the lead-in to the quoted message or the header of the forwarded message, and select "Times" when "(mixed)" shows up. This is a big pain; I often forget to do so and end up having to edit the Unsent Message (which I check before sending) as New and correct the font.
    5. A minor problem: I rely on the reminder to attach a message which shows up when an "attachment-related" word is entered in the body of the message. It has been a wonderful feature of Thunderbird that has prevented me on many occasions from sending off messages without the attachments. However, in the new versions, even if I have indeed added the attachment, a pop-up comes up on sending the message saying there has been no attachment and asking if I want to add one. It's easy enough to just click "No", but it's yet one more unnecessary and distracting step that this new version is requiring of the user.
    I'm really sad to see these various changes/glitches. I love Thunderbird and it bothers me deeply to find myself mired in so many new problems that slow down my work. I would be grateful for any suggestions and advice, and, particularly, for any information as whether I can roll back to the version prior to 31.3.0 that was working well for me.

    Thank you, Zenos. I tried rolling back to v31.2.0, since I had not encountered problems prior to December. However, that didn't help. So I followed your valuable suggestion to revert to v24.6; that seems to have done the trick.
    I would like to mark this problem as "Solved" -- the rollback seems to have worked. However, since my original post was a complex mix of things, before I do that, should I post the individual problem sets that I had noted (address fields/nicknames problems -- numbers 1-3; default font problem -- number 4; attachment reminder problem -- number 5) as separate issues which have not been solved?
    Do you know if these various issues are being worked on? I'm glad to have the temporary fix of rolling back to an earlier version, but I'd like to get back on the current update schedule at some point if and when these problems have been corrected.
    Thank you again!

  • Font problem in Classic

    I posted this over in the Classic forum...but it's rather dead over there and I fear it may not be seen for a while...so here's the problem...
    I'm running Quark 4 in Classic and having trouble with fonts. Though the fonts are on my computer, and in the OS 9 fonts folder, they won't print correctly. If I use the same printer and print from Quark on my old iMac (running OS 9) the fonts print and look fine.
    I read another thread in this forum that mentioned the fonts must be OS 9 fonts (and must not have been run through suitcase or a similar managing program???). So, on the off chance that my husband or I just took OS X fonts and copied into the OS 9 folder, I copied the OS 9 fonts from the iMac (I just grabbed everything in the Frutiger family, as it was one that I had an issue with) and then dumped them into the OS 9 fonts folder on my iBook. I restarted Classic mode in order to make the fonts available to the OS and then printed again. The font still prints all pixeled-looking.
    Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong? Do I need to find the original font disc and install them from the disc?
    Any help would be most appreciated!!!!!

    Hi Diane,
    Glad that the tip helped to "solve" the font problem!
    Not sure why you are printing the file info at the bottom of the page. It does sound as if it is a print setting somewhere though. Hopefully someone has a clue for you.
    Again, thanks for the "solved" star and if I can think of something else for you to try I'll post back. Let us know if you figure it out.
    good luck,
    littleshoulders
    edit:
    "In lieu of an answer...I tried changing the paper size to legal and it's not on the last copy I printed."
    Ooops, I misread your reply, and see that by changing the paper size it corrected the issue.

  • Font problem in reports, IAS Version:  10.1.2.2.0

    Dear all,
    I have installed about 20 applications servers on windows but never met this problem before.
    I am facing the problem in viewing the report output on the Windows 2003, Oracle Application server
    Installation Type: Forms and Reports Services
    Version: 10.1.2.2.0
    I am using Arial 10 as default Font of the report,
    but in output I am getting another font.
    Please Help!
    Regards,
    Tobias

    I have found this reference on a search of oracle:
    http://download-uk.oracle.com/docs/cd/B14099_19/bi.1012/b14048/pbr_trouble.htm
    Section D1.11 says this is a know problem and to copy one registry entry to another, however, this entry does not exist on the Windows 2003 server this is running on.
    Any ideas?
    D.1.11 Printing and Font Errors When Using In-process Server
    The in-process server does not recognize the default printer of a user currently logged on to Windows. This is because the service that runs the in-process server is logged on as the Local System.
    Problem
    Any of the following:
    * Printing to default printer fails with the REP_3002 error. For example, the following command:
    http://myrepsrvr.us.oracle.com:7777/reports/rwservlet?report=myrep.rdf&destype=printer&desformat=html
    results in the following error: Error:"REP-3002: Error initializing printer. Please make sure a printer is installed."
    * Deploying reports containing Oracle6i Graphics (OGD) graphics causes Reports Server to stop responding.
    * Font alignment problems in a PDF file output from an in-process server.
    Solution
    To work around all these issues:
    1. Open the Windows registry using a registry editor (for example, regedit.exe). Create a backup of the registry before you edit it.
    2. Navigate to the following key: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Windows
    3. Copy the string value of Device for this key. For example: \\MOWGLI\sierra,winspool,Ne02:
    4. Navigate to the following key: HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Windows
    5. Paste the Device value copied from HKEY_CURRENT_USER (the string value of Device for this key will be empty).

  • PDFMaker font problem

    Can anyone offer any advice on how to debug a font problem?
    I am using a (shareware) symbol font on my Windows XP system. It works great in FrameMaker, and comes out perfectly in Frame-generated PDF files.
    Unfortunately, I also have to convert Excel spreadsheets to PDF, using the same font. When I generated those PDF files with PDFMaker, the font characters all show as little squares. I checked MS Word as well, and it has the same issue.
    I've checked the font properties in the generated file using the TouchUp Text tool in Acrobat - the font is recognised and embedded. If I try to make changes, I get this error message:
    "Some of the characters in the current font are not available, the missing characters will be replaced by place holder characters (maybe dots '.').
    "A work around to this is to select another font which contains the characters in the TouchUp Properties dialog.
    "Proceed with replacement?"
    I'm using Office 2007 under Windows XP Professional. The font is shareware and unsupported. I'd bet my bottom dollar that the problem isn't in PDFMaker, but I don't know a whole lot about fonts, and I'm not sure how to debug this.
    Can anyone offer any advice?

    If you go to the general tab in the Adobe PDF printer properties, there is a button for printing preferences. Select that and go to the Adobe PDF Settings tab. There should be a check box for leaving the log file intact there. You can also simply print to the Adobe PDF printer with print to file selected. Then open the file in Distiller and watch the messages created (these steps are automated if you do not print to file).
    You can also check the fonts in the PDF (use ctrl-D, font tab). If they are embedded, that information is stated in parentheses. If there is no statement of embedding, then it did not get done. That is not necessarily an error if the job settings are not set to embed the font.

  • Font book or CS2 font problem?

    I am using a mac Pro, running OS 10.4.11, w/ CS2. I am having a problem with either font book or CS2. Certain fonts are not viewing correctly when I use them in CS2 programs. I get a font error when I open the file, and when I try to fix the font by choosing the same name again, the font appears as another font entirely (in fact after I closed and reopened everything the font it substituted changed, and if I choose italic it changes fonts again). I do not know if the issue is with font book or CS2, but I have installed around 1500 fonts, and have had some other minor issues when I open files in Adobe programs, with fonts not showing up even though they are installed and enabled. I fix that problem by disabling the font and then re-enabling it and it then shows up in the font list.
    So after all that, my question is what should I do? Should I reinstall CS2? Or is the problem more likely cause by font book?
    Thanks

    Font Book is an inadequate font manager made by Apple for managing the few meger fonts Apple includes with the system.
    FAP is a robust font manager made for professionals with thousands of fonts

  • Leopard and font problems

    I have had my fonts default to courier when
    printing, just like the others who have posted notices in recent
    weeks. I wish I had never installed Leopard because I use FH
    daily-- I don't understand Illustrator even though I have it. I
    THINK in Freehand. I know I can change all my fonts to paths or
    print form the PDF preview mode BUT I don't want to have to do
    that. Anyway, I have another issue. I do a newsletter once a month
    and the editor sends me the articles cut and pasted into eMails. I
    have copied, cut and pasted the articles into FH beautifully up
    until Leopard. Now I get all those crazy weird characters.
    Apostrophes become "i"s, quotation marks become exclamation marks
    and spaces get crosses in them. I am ready to scream! I don't want
    to reinstall Panther but I will if I can't fix these issues.
    Anybody got any answers? is calling Adobe Customer Support a waste
    of time?

    For the garbled font problem you might try removing font
    cache files.
    FontNuke will do the job. You can download the latest version
    here.

  • Solution for font problem using iTunes store (iTunes 9 @ Vista)

    For all those of you who experience font problems rendering the iTunes store (I got partly jibberish many letters rendered as squares). For me it turned out that
    my Arial fonts were corrupted (there were other files with the same font names residing in my Windows font directory). Deleting all Arial and installing them new from another Vista machine solved the problem.
    I got to analyze the problem as follows: the rendering of the iTunes 9 store is done by the webkit. This reads a list of available fonts with files names from the registry and stores it in the file C:\Users\YOURNAME\AppData\Local\Apple Computer\WebKit\FontsList.plist (do not edit, it is generated each time you start iTunes anew). If you compare (e.g., using diffdaff) this file to the one of a Vista computer that does not show the font problem, you pretty soon realize which font family might cause the problem for you. For me it was Arial (which is used by Windows as a substitution for the Helvetica fonts BTW).

    You can try to download items one at a time to get rid of this error message. Follow these steps for such:
    1) Open iTunes.
    2) From the Store pull-down menu at the top, choose Check for Purchases.
    3) Enter your account name and password, then click Check. Your purchases should begin downloading.
    4) Under the STORE section on the left, click Downloads.
    5) Click the Pause All button in the lower-right corner. This will temporarily pause all of your downloads.
    6) To resume only one of the downloads, click the refresh button that appears to the right of one of the paused downloads.
    If that doesn't help, you may want to consider performing the following to be sure no software is conflicting with iTunes:
    1.) Disable all anti-virus software you may have running
    2.) Disable all firewall software you may have running
    3.) Disable all web acceleration software you may have running
    4.) If you are connected to the internet via an internet router, please disconnect it and connect directly via your broadband modem
    Hope this helps =)

  • How to uninstall Snow Leopard? major font problems in iWork, iLife

    All iWork and iLife apps have shocking font problems... so much so that I need to uninstall Snow Leopard and wait for Apple to sort it out. Does anyone know the best way? And how is it possible that these problems are occurring with Apple's inhouse software? Other stuff seems to be working OK so far for the most part. For a bit more detail on my problems, including sample images:
    http://bit.ly/309G0o

    Snow lizard cost me $27.000.00 in unusable fonts. We installed snow lizards (what I'm calling it now) and lost 934 fonts. Say 40 were bad fonts and 896 were type 1 postscript. When I explained to the tech person how big this was to the print community, he had no clue. - I'm still waiting to hear back. I have a case number but now I read from another post they knew Snow Lizard would do this. At 30.00 per font that is almost $27,000 to replace what they thought wasn't important. But in the print world of design this is huge. Every layout and ad that needs an update - which take a few minutes is a whole rework. They have no clue what business a mac computer is in or they don't see us as important.
    I did find if I load those fonts or the font missing into the InDesign font folder I can get the old ad to make it to pdf. But photoshop and illustrator, I'm screwed. And if I didn't outline the type in illustrator - it's gone. I asked the tech guy if I can go back, and undo this slimy lizard and he said probably not if we do backups. We do backups every hour - this is the print business. I feel forsaken. I've been with apple for so many years.

    Update:
    Tried reinstalling, change the fonts, remove all font clear the cache.
    change, look up the settings, looked up size, tried monitor dpi.
    checked all the config files for anything remotely related to this problem.
    Had a quick look at the bug tracker for google-chrome-beta as well no reported
    font problems as far as i can find.
    Update2:
    Tried adding custom.css to the browser not even that worked.
    update3: [SOLVED]
    So i solved the problem.
    The problem was a faulty font that was stuck and used in the pre somehow.
    Removed and added another to the list and somehow that worked.
    recommendations - if anyone has this problem in the future.
    open firefox and look in the font tab what is used. and remove that
    or try to install a fixed one. that should work.
    -Nothing has yielded any working results.
    So any ideas at this point would be most appreciated.
    Thanks,

  • TextEdit font problem

    I'm having a problem with fonts in TextEdit. Some of the fonts in a particular font family are not available when I choose them either as a default font in the Preferences dialog, or as the active font in the Fonts panel. The unavailable fonts are listed, but when I select them nothing happens or the selection jumps to an entirely different font family.
    The strange thing is that these fonts in question work perfectly in other OS X applications that use the Fonts panel, such as pages.
    Here's a screenshot of the Fonts panel in Pages. All of the Helvetica Neue LT Com fonts are listed properly:
    !http://img.skitch.com/20090912-ercfgxyqpujqycfd2mjebuej51.png!
    But here's a screenshot of the Fonts panel in TextEdit. Observe how the "Light" font is listed differently, i.e. just "Light" instead of "45 Light" as it is in Pages. Also "43 Light Extended" is only listed as "W3" in TextEdit, and there are other similar examples.
    !http://img.skitch.com/20090912-xgrbpkwi9kqkck8c7apqnni8gi.png!
    Any ideas what's going on, and how to fix it?

    I don't have a solution (and I haven't noticed contradictions like yours), but I have noticed other font problems with TextEdit 1.6 in 10.6 and 10.6.1 (the version that was there when I finished installing 10.6).
        If I paste in a selection from, say, a webpage and the font size is not one listed by default in its Font Menu, the size does not display, even if I use Command + or -, until it becomes one of the listed sizes. But it never displays in the top right data entry box.
        Another anomaly is that pasting text that has an embedded link retains both the link and the special formatting even when using Paste and Match Style. It does not match style. If you apply Paste Style makes, that makes no difference, either. I have to either type it instead of pasting it or paste it in a Text Only file, then copy or cut it out and paste it in the RTF document. I tried selecting Edit > Substitutions > Smart Copy/Paste but apparently that refers to putting spaces between words when pasting in (I could not find it explained in TextEdit Help). I tried turning off Smart Links, but while it works with URLs, it has no effect on linked text (I am talking specifically about the kind of linkage found in the "Genre" line at IMDb.com, as an example).

  • Nasty 10.6.4/PS5 Font Problem

    It would appear that 10.6.4 has broken some font operations in PS5.
    I opened a PSD originally generated in PS4. PS5 prompted:
    Nothing new. I clicked OK and checked some of the font layers. Saw this:
    I've gotten this before…no problem…went to the Layers/Type menu to use the Replace All Missing Fonts command. Got this:
    I selected the font using the Type Tool. Observed this….
    ...a font I've never used in my life. Of note: it's the first font in the font list. After selecting this font with the Font tool, I got this:
    Clicked OK. Took a look at the Character menu and saw that  Abadi MT Condensed was still the "selected" font.
    Pulled down the character menus to choose Helvetica Neue LT Std 55 Roman (the font I know is supposed to be there). Got this:
    Pretty spooky, all those checkmarks. No matter what I chose, 37 Thin kept getting selected. Moved on to another Font layer and selected that with the Font Tool. Got this again:
    Clicked OK and PS5 crashed. This is quite repeatable on my machine.
    Now here's the odd thing. If I do the same thing with PS4 I can initially use the Replace All Missing Fonts command and everything is fine. Not so with PS5. So it would appear that 10.6.4 has broken something that PS5 needs to deal with fonts properly. Doesn't seem to affect PS4.
    Yes, cleaned font caches and squashed duplicates with FontBook. Even did a Safe boot for extra cache dumping. Doesn't help.
    Mr. Cox, if you're interested, I'll be more than happy to email my crashlogs to you.

    Yes, email me the crash log, and a list of installed fonts.  We may need someone else to contact you and see if we can isolate the problem.
    Sounds like more font cache breakage.   Darn, I hoped that clearing the OS font caches via atsutil would solve this one.
    Yeah, it's the Cocoa font APIs that are giving us fits...
