Anti alias and Use device font not why is that not working?

I am editing a flash template that I have and I know
about the anti alias setting and I went through all the text boxes and set them to use device fonts and they all seem to b
e working except for the sliding text boxes, see attached images that show the sliding box (the gray color) and the text box behind it, when I drill down to the text box it is set to use device fonts already but when I enter my text it does not show all the letters (the W A and V for example are missing) I know that is caused by the Antialias setting but I am unable to find what is set to that in this sliding box, what am I missing? I am a very novice user so please be as detailed as you can in you answer, I can provide any information needed. Thank s in advance.
I am using CS10

I had the same issue. They say that because TRC Sri Lanka haven't registered IPad or apple as a safe product. That means the IMEI of apple products will not match with srilankan regulatory specifications. But this issue will be solved in near future. Please contact telecommunications and regulatory bord for details. Dialog axiata can't help.

  • Why is getLineMetrics inaccurate when using device fonts* or immediately after resizing a TextField?

    1.  We need getLineMetrics to return correct values immediately after changing a TextField's width/height or any property that would affect the layout metrics, withouth having to alter other properties like setting the text to itself (p1.text = p1.text).  Currently, if you change the width of a text field to match the stage width for example, getLineMetrics will not return correct values until the next frame.... UNLESS you set the text property.
    2.  We also need some kind of "stage scaled" event in addition to the "stage resize" event (which only fires when stage scale mode is no_scale), because stage scaling affects the rendered size of device fonts so dramatically that we must call getLineMetrics again.  This is not the case for fonts antialiased for readability, since their size is relatively stable with scaling, as demonstrated by drawing a box around the first line once and then scaling the stage.
    So those are the problems.  The asterisk in the title of this post is there because it seem that TextField.getLineMetrics is accurate with device fonts, but I cannot take advantage of that accuracy without a way to detect when the player is scaled.  I can only confirm its accuracy at a 1:1 scale, since there is no way to recalculate the size of the line rectangle once the player is scaled, aside from setting a timer of some sort which is a real hack not to mention horribly inefficient with no way to detect when the stage has actually be scaled.
    I use device fonts because embedded fonts look terrible and blurred compared to device font rendering.  The "use device font" setting matches the appearance of text in web browsers exactly.  The only way to get embedded/advanced antialiased text in flash to approximate that of the device font look is to primarily set gridFitType to PIXEL instead of SUBPIXEL, and secondly set autokerning to true to fix problems caused by the PIXEL grid fit type.  That ensure strokes are fitted solidly to the nearest pixel, however it still lacks the "ClearType" rendering that device fonts use, which has notable color offset to improve appearance on LCD monitors, rather than the purely grayscale text that flash uses in its subpixel rendering.  Frankly, failure to use device fonts because of API issues, is the only reason why Flash sometimes doesn't look as good as HTML text and why people say text in Flash "looks blurry".  I'm tired of hearing it.  If the player simply dispatched an event when scaled and updated the metrics immediately when any property of the text field that would affect the metrics is changed, then we could all happily use device fonts and Flash text would look great.  As is stands, because of the two problems I mentioned in the opening paragraph, we're stuck dealing with these problems.
    If you create two text fields named "p1" and "p2" for paragraph 1 and 2, populate them with an identical line of text and set one to "use device fonts" and the other to "antialias for readability", then use this code to draw boxes around the first line of text in each of them:
    import flash.text.TextField;import flash.text.TextLineMetrics;graphics.clear();drawBoxAroundLine( p1, 0 );drawBoxAroundLine( p2, 0 );function drawBoxAroundLine( tf:TextField, line_index:int ):void{          var gutter:Number = 2;          var tlm:TextLineMetrics = tf.getLineMetrics( line_index );          graphics.lineStyle( 0, 0x0000ff );          graphics.drawRect( tf.x + gutter, tf.y + gutter, tlm.width, tlm.height );}
    The box surrounding the line of text in the "use device fonts" box is way off at first.  Scaling the player demonstrates that the text width of the device font field fluctuates wildly, while the "antialias for readability" field scales with the originally drawn rectangle perfectly.  That much is fine, but again to clarify the problems I mentioned at the top of this post:
    Since the text width fluctuates wildly upon player resize, assuming that getLineMetrics actually works on device fonts (and that's an assumption at this point), you'd have to detect the player resize and redraw the text.  Unfortunately, Flash does not fire the player resize event unless the stage scale mode is set to NO_SCALE.  That's problem #1.  And if that's by design, then they should definitely add a SCALE event, because changes in player scale dramatically affect device font layout, which requires recalculation of text metrics.  It's a real issue for fluid layouts.
    The second problem is that even when handling the resize event, and for example setting the text field width's to match the Stage.stageWidth property, when the text line wraps, it's not updated until the next frame.  In other words, at the exact resize event that causes a word to wrap, calling getLineMetrics in this handler reports the previous line length before the last word on the line wrapped.  So it's delayed a frame.  The only way to get the correct metrics immediately is basically to set the text property to itself like "p1.text = p1.text".  That seems to force an update of the metrics.  Otherwise, it's delayed, and useles.  I wrote about this in an answer over a year ago, showing how sensitive the text field property order is: http://stackoverflow.com/a/9558597/88409

    As I've noted several times, setting the text property to its own current value should not be necessary to update the metrics, and in some subclasses of text field, setting a property to its own value is ignored as the property is not actually changing and processing such a change would cause unnecessary work which could impact application performance.  Metrics should be current upon calling getLineMetrics.  They are not.  That's the problem.
    From a programming perspective, having to set the text property (really "htmlText" to preserve formatting) to itself to update metrics is almost unmanagable, and doesn't even make sense considering "htmlText" is just one of a dozen properties and methods on a TextField that could invalidate the layout metrics (alignment, setTextFormat, width, height, antiAliasMode, type, etc.), and I would have to override every one of those properties so that I could set htmlText = htmlText.  Using such a subclass isn't even possible if I want to use the Flash IDE to add text fields to the stage.  I would have to iterate over the display list and replace all existing fields with my subclass, which also isn't a good workaround because there's no way to update any and all variable references that may have been made to those instances.
    Frome what I've read, the invalide+render event system is unreliable.  My layout framework is similar to that of Windows Forms, and performs layout immediately, with dozens of docking modes and uses suspend and resume layout calls for efficiently resizing multiple child objects in a component.  Certain calculations cannot be aggregated for a render event, because some containers are semi-reflexive, meaning they can expand to fit the child contents while also contraining the child size, depending on whether the contain was resized or the child component was resized, so as a matter of correctness the resizing calcultation must occur immediately when the child resizes, otherwise a top-down pass on the display hierarchy for resizing will not be sufficient.
    As far as waiting until the next frame, no that is not possible, as it will cause one frame to be completely wrong.  If I was dragging the browser window to resize it, it would look terrible as virtually every single frame during the resizing operation would be incorrect.  Also, in the case where a user clicks the maximize or restore button of the web browser, the resizing event will occur exactly once, so if the metrics are not correct when that occurs, there is no recalculation occuring on the next frame, it will just be wrong and sit there looking wrong indefinitely.
    In case it's not obvious by now, this is a web application.  It uses the NO_SCALE stage scaling option, so notification of the event is not actually an issue for me personally.  I was just pointing out that for anyone not using the NO_SCALE option, there is no event in Flash to detect player scale.  What you're suggesting is using a JavaScript event and using the ExternalInterface bridge to send a message, which there is no guarantee whether it will be processed in a timely matter by the player and introduces possible platform inconsistancies, depending on whether the browser has actually resized the Flash interface at that point or what state Flash is in when it tries to recalculate the size of the text.  The browser may send that event to flash before the player is actually resized, so it will be processing incorrect sizes and then resized after the fact.  That's not a good solution.  Flash needs a scale event in addition to a resize event.  I'm really surprised it doesn't have one.  At the very least, the existing resize event should be dispatched reguardless of the stage scale mode, rather than occuring exclusively in the NO_SCALE mode.
    Bottom line is that getLineMetrics needs to return correct values every time it is called, without having to set the "text" property immediately before calling it.  If such a requirement exists, which seems to be the case, then that needs documented in the getLineMetrics method.

  • Using device fonts for printing

    Hello,
    I was wondering how to use device fonts in Java. These are the fonts that are in the printer and not in the operating system.
    I'm writing some point of sale software that needs to use the Star TSP100 printer on Windows 7 64.
    I need to use the device font "control" in order to instruct the printer to open the cash drawer.
    I would also like to use the device font "3of9" for barcodes. I know there are alternatives to using this, but directly from the printer would be easier than trying to purchase and deploy a barcode font.
    I know that star micronics has a JPOS implementation, but not for windows 7 64. And the JPOS with the StarMicronics bin is cumbersome and unstable for the end user even in Windows XP 32 bit.
    If I specify the font "control" java replaces it with the default font. i.e. Font deviceFont = new Font ("control", Font.PLAIN, 8.5); is just the default font and not "control"

    I did find a solution to my problem, but I cannot use device fonts. You may also find this useful to address your issue. I opened the a print service and sent ASCII to it instead of creating and printing a graphic object. You'll need the [Command Emulator STAR Line Mode Command Specifications|http://www.star-micronics.co.jp/eng/service/usermanual/comemu_starline_pm.pdf] to know what the commands are for the TSP100 and TSP700. I've included a cheat sheet to find the HEX value of the ASCII command. Note that if you need to send several characters you'll need to use the space with it.
    e.g. The command to select font is ESC RS F you'll need to send: 1B201E2046

  • Sample rate off the audio input and out devices do not match - what to do?

    This is fundamental, I know, but nevertheless I can't find my way around it. I get this error message when trying to recor:
    Sample rate off the audio input and out devices do not match
    and am asked to do this:
    Use the appropriate operating system or audio device control panel to adjust the sample rates of the input and output devices to use the same settingt.
    I have defined the sample rate to 44.1/16 bit in accordance with my inbuild soundcardt.
    I am trying to record from LineIn.
    When running on a M-Audio sound card I don't face any problems.

    Any suggestions?

    You're sure you have set BOTH the input and output settings to 44.1 16 bit?
    Which version of Windows are you running?  There are a number of posts on this forum about how to fully access both the Windows Mixer and the Mixer for your soundcard.  Especially, you need to ensure that all "Windows Sounds" are turned OFF.

  • Using OS X 10.8.3 and ethernet wire port not working suggestions?

    I plug my ethernet cable in and the port does not work.  I have checked with another computer and the internet is working. 

    When you say you changed your password was that on the gmail site and yet both your phone and pad can still send & receive with the same settings and the original password? That should not happen. If you changed your gmail password no device should be able to connect using the original password.
    As to the problem with mac mail this is a very common problem. Most of the time the only fix is to completely delete the account and recreate it. But then you also need to remove the original smtp server entry as just removing the account doesn't do that.

    I recently downloaded iMovie on my iPhone 5 and it is telling me to connect to wifi or use itunes to download iMovie well I have done both and it is still not working can someone please help me?

    Hi troy157,
    I'm sorry you are having issues with the iMovie app you purchased for your iPhone5.
    The first thing I would suggest is to log out of your iTunes Account on your iPhone, turn the iPhone off and then on again, and see if app finishes downloading/updating.
    Settings > iTunes & App Stores > Tap on your Apple ID account > Tap Sign Out
    If the issues persists, the article below will give you a few more troubleshooting steps:
    iOS: Troubleshooting applications purchased from the App Store
    Try the following steps to resolve your issue, testing the app after each step.
    1. Update your device software
    Update your device to the latest version of iOS.
    2. Check for app updates
    Ensure that your apps are up to date:
    Open the App Store and tap Updates. If updates are available, tap Update All.
    When prompted, enter your iTunes Store account information. App Store will then download and install the application updates.
    Note: Some applications may require a Wi-Fi connection to update.3. Install another app from the App Store
    4. Restart the application
    If the issue affects only a single app, try closing just that app:
    Press the Home button to return to the Home screen.
    Double-tap the Home button to display recent apps.
    Tap and hold the affected app until the red minus appears.
    Tap the red minus to quit the app.
    Press the Home button, then restart the app.
    5. Restart your device
    Hold the Sleep/Wake button until "slide to power off" appears. Slide to power off your device. When it is off, press the Sleep/Wake button to turn it back on.6. Reinstall the affected application
    Remove the application from your device and reinstall it.
    Touch and hold any application icon on the Home Screen until the icons start to wiggle.
    Tap the "x" in the corner of the application you want to delete.
    Tap Delete to remove the application and all of its data from your device.
    Press the Home button.
    Go to the App Store.
    Search for the application and then download it again.
    Note: If it is a paid app, ensure you are using the iTunes account you purchased the app with originally. If it is not, you will be charged for the app again. For more information regarding downloading previously purchased items, see this article.
    I hope this information helps ....
    Have a great day!

  • When you create a PostScript file you must rely on system fonts and use document fonts

    I got this error:
    "When you create a PostScript file you must rely on system fonts and use document fonts. Please go to the printer properties, "Adobe PDF Settings" page and turn OFF the option "Rely on system fonts only; do not use document fonts."
    This strikes me as bad practice. I only want to use system fonts and document fonts will muck me up.
    That being said, I could not easily find a way to fix this with Acrobat Pro XI. I opened Control Panel (Windows 8) and found the printer and mucked around in the various ways to get to change the PDF settings (there are several ways, and some of them present the choices as bold and not just regular). I found two separate switches for "Rely on system fonts only; do not use document fonts" and turned both off, BUT that did not work.
    Frustrated, I went back to FrameMaker and clicked File > Print Setup and then for the PDF printer, Printer Properties. There I found a THIRD instance of "Rely on system fonts only; do not use document fonts" that was set differently than the other two. This was the setting the error message meant. Change this one.
    Thanks for the convoluted UI, Adobe. What a pain, but there is the answer for all who follow after....

    > Windows 7 and Frame 7.2.
    This is not a supported configuration and probably does not work, due (I'm guessing) to driver API changes from XP to Win7, which would affect generating PDF and Ps output. This would affect Save-as-PDF and Print-to-Ps+Distill (unless you have a newer version of the full Acrobat product).
    As it happens, I'm going to attempt something similar: FM 7.0 on Win7 64 Pro. However, I'm going to install that old FM in "XP Mode".
    XP Mode is a 32-bit virtual machine running actual Windows XP inside Win7. It is (now maybe "was") available for Windows 7 Enterprise, Professional and Ultimate (but not Basic, Home or not-so-Premium). When XP went off support life earlier this month, Mr.Bill may have taken down the ability  to download XP Mode (or not, since some large enterprises are able to  purchase continued support for XP at some great cost). XP Mode never was supported for Win8. There are other VMs for Windows available.
    If XP Mode is still available, you also need a CPU that has hardware virtualization, which all recent 64-bit AMD processors do, but which is fused-off in many low end 64-bit Intel processors. AMD processors need a separate unobvious hot-fix patch installed before you do anything else about XP Mode.

  • Embedding and using external fonts.

    I'm using Flash CS4.  I'm trying to load and embed an external font.  The main problem I'm having is that I need to import more than just latin 1.  I need many special characters imported as well.  Because of this, using Flash CS4's create new font from the library is not an option.  I'm using Verdana, so I know the font has all the characters I need.
    So what I need to do is create an external swf that holds the font.  Then I need to import and use the font.  Unfortunately, I've found way too many ways online that work but don't fit my needs.
    Any help is appreciated.

    1. Embedding
    a. You can embed font in Flash IDE by creating Font as a library asset and then compile this swf. There are tons of help available on Internet.
    b. If you use Flash CS5 or compilers that utilizes Flex SDK, you can create class like below and compile it into a swf:
    package 
         import flash.display.Sprite;
         public class FontLibrary extends Sprite
              [Embed(systemFont="Verdana", fontName="_verdana", mimeType="application/x-font", advancedAntiAliasing="true", fontStyle="normal",unicodeRange="U+0020-U+007E")]
              public static var Normal:Class;
              [Embed(systemFont="Verdana", fontName="_verdana", mimeType="application/x-font", advancedAntiAliasing="true", fontStyle="normal", fontWeight="bold",unicodeRange="U+0020-U+007E")]
              public static var Bold:Class;
              [Embed(systemFont="Verdana", fontName="_verdana", mimeType="application/x-font", advancedAntiAliasing="true", fontStyle="italic", fontWeight="normal",unicodeRange="U+0020-U+007E")]
              public static var Italic:Class;
              [Embed(systemFont="Verdana", fontName="_verdana", mimeType="application/x-font", advancedAntiAliasing="true", fontStyle="italic", fontWeight="bold",unicodeRange="U+0020-U+007E")]
              public static var ItalicBold:Class;
    No matter what way you choose - you will have font available the external swf.
    Try to load external swf into current domain. When you load the swf there is no much to do. Once swf is loaded - fonts should be available throughout application.
    To use the font - just pass its name into TextFiled instance's TextFormat. WIth the example above:
    myTextFormat.font = "_verdana";
    Documentation for TextFormat:
    http://livedocs.adobe.com/flash/9.0/ActionScriptLangRefV3/flash/text/TextFormat.html
    To see available fonts you can use the following:
    var allFonts:Array = Font.enumerateFonts(false);
    allFonts.sortOn("fontName", Array.CASEINSENSITIVE);     
    for (var i:int = 0; i < allFonts.length; i++)
         trace(allFonts[i].fontName);

  • Print to Video Error msg: audio and vide devices may not match

    When I attempt to print to video (using a Sony DV deck that has werved me well for years) I receive the message:
    "The selected audio and video devices may not match:
    -Apple FireWire NTSC (720 X 480)
    Please verify that the audio and video outputs are externally routed to the intended device(s).
    Do you want to proceed?"
    I tried proceeding, and the video images output to the tape but without a sound track.
    What to do? I must deliver a tape to my client!
    I recently did a software update to 10.4.6. Could that be part of the problem?
    Of did some setting change somewhere without my knowing it, and I need to reset it, if so what?
    Thanks in advance

    Hello!
    Thank you for this. I did check the audio playback settings and it was NOT set to audio follows video. I then CHANGED it as you have kindly instructed. The audio video settings box you mention was NOT checked, so I didn't need to do anything there.
    I then tried o launch Print to Video (not Edit to Tape) and sadly, the same error message occurred. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
    I am running FCP 4.5, recently upgraded to OS 10.4.6
    Thanks in advance.
    Hey Pamela,
    Have you been monitoring externally this whole time?
    If you have, and you've been getting external audio
    and video, then this is probably a case of a
    setting being off somewhere.
    First, check your View > Audio Playback
    setting. It should be set to Audio follows
    Video.
    Second, press Option-Command-Q to bring up the
    Audio/Video Settings dialog. Click on the right-most
    tab (A/V Devices) then confirm that the box for 'Use
    Different output for Edit To Tape/Print To Video' is
    not checked.
    And please confirm that you're doing a Print to Video
    and not an Edit To Tape. I ask because the only time
    that I can remember getting this message is when I've
    tried to do an Edit To Tape and didn't drag the
    correct sequence from the browser (if I remember
    correctly, I accidently dragged a sequence that was
    also open in timeline).

  • My problem is that one of the USB ports and the device does not detect this and inactive but can not find how to reactivate.Help me please! greetings thanks!

    Hello good evening, I have a MacBook Pro and my problem is that one of the USB ports and the device does not detect this and inactive but can not find how to reactivate.
    Help me please! greetings thanks!

    Do you have the Firefox new tab page but the actual sites are missing, or do you have some other page?
    If you have some different page, try the quick fix in Fred McD's reply.
    If the sites are missing, did you use the Reset feature? That will clear the storage associated with the new tab page. I'm not sure it's possible to recover from that; you probably need to rebuild your page from scratch as you browse.
    For possible future reference, here is how to access the hidden setting for the page to display on new tabs:
    (1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
    (2) In the search box above the list, type or paste '''newtab''' and pause while the list is filtered
    (3) Double-click the '''browser.newtab.url''' preference and enter your preferred page:
    * ''Page thumbnails (default)'' => about:newtab
    * ''Blank tab'' => about:blank
    * ''Built-in Firefox home page'' => about:home
    * ''Any other page'' => full URL to the page
    Press Ctrl+t to open a new tab and verify that it worked. Fixed?
    Some gotchas:
    ''If Firefox won't let you edit this setting:'' you may have something called SearchProtect on your system.
    ''If Firefox lets you save your change but ignores it:'' one of your extensions may be overriding it. You can review, disable, and/or remove extensions on the add-ons page:
    "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons > ''in the left column click'' Extensions
    ''If the change works during your session, but at the next startup is back to an unwanted page:'' you might have a user.js file in your personal Firefox settings folder (your Firefox profile folder). This article describes how to track down and remove the file: [[How to fix preferences that won't save]].
    Any luck?

    Not really sur easy you would be having that problem.  Mine works.  You might try RESET DEVICE
    Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the home button together until the apple logo appears (ignore the ON/OFF slider) then let both buttons go and wait for device to restart (no data will be lost). Then try again and see if it makes a difference

  • "waht you hear" (disabled and unplugged devices checked) not in recording devices

    ["waht you hear" (disabled and unplugged devices checked) not in recording devices? I have scoured the windows7 and creative forums and cannot find a solution.
    PLEASE HELP!
    I did a fresh re-install of windows7 32bit.
    The previous install was running Creative Driver .04.0900 for an onboard Sound Blaster 24bit
    chip(CA006-DAT), on a MSI/K8N/NEO4/SLI/Platinium mobo.
    I open audio controls, then recording devices. Check disabled and disconnected devices.
    "What you hear" appears and I am able to beat match Arkaos, R4, Gforce,...
    The current install, same hardware, installed Creative Driver .04.0900 as well as Creative
    Audio Control Panel and Creative software Autoupdate thru Windows Update.
    I open audio controls, then recording devices. Disabled and disconnected devices were already
    checked. "What you hear" not listed, only Microphone, CD Audio, & Line-In.
    If I open properties for devices, Recording or Playback, there is now a Sound Blaster tab. Open SB
    tab and select settings for Creative Audio Control Panel.
    Hedphone Detec., Performance, Restore Defaults, Speakers, EAX Effects, CMSS-3D, SPDIF I/O tabs on
    panel.
    "What you hear" device shows up nowhere.

    If u have a Dell Branded X-FI sound card and are using vista there is no "what u hear" go to the Dell XPS forum and read the FAQ at the top of the forum. "Stereo Mix/What you hear/waveout mix"

  • When streaming a movie with the new Apple TV, and using a DSL Internet connection, all audio sound works, e.g., the music track, but the audio track with the actor's voices, does not work. What can I do?

    Hi Brian,
    Thanks restoring and restarting didn't fix my problem - i have started it fresh and still it doesn't work. Basically I press ONCE on the remote, after the machine has not had any commands for 10 minutes, and the cursor skips from one end of the menu to the other - so I can't choose network or update software etc - I sometimes manage to stop it randomly in the middle of the menu if I press on a command in the middle of the cursor skipping all the menu steps...not sure what the problem is but I have basically not used my brand new apple tv since I bought it for that reason! I should call Apple support I suppose! grrrr hate wasting time with stuff like this!
    Thanks for your help though!
