Bookmarks Appearing in Asian Font

Hi
Running Acrobat 8 on new iMac. (10.6.4)
When I try to make a new bookmarkusing the select text/Command+B
I'm getting asian font displaying.
When I do it manually by selecting the text copy, make new bookmark using the menu options and pasting, it comes out fine?
I've trashed Preference and have eveything updated and patched up.
Thanks
Marcus

The font is called "Apple Chancery".
Location /Library/Fonts/Apple Chancery.dfont
Unique name Apple Chancery; 6.0d2e1; 2006-07-19
I'm on Leopard 10.5.8 and DVDSP4.2.1, with Photoshop CS4.
It might be that DVDSP4 is not accessing a font collection called "Apple"?
Also, in Font Book, Chancery does not appear in the 'All Fonts' list, nor 'English', nor 'User', nor 'Computer'. But if I search, it shows up.
It seems that PS is accessing a broader list than DVDSP4.
Any thoughts?

Having Problem with Asian Fonts

I'm having a problem installing the packages ttf-arphic-ukai and ttf-arphic-uming. They install fine, but it completely corrupts all my fonts.
Any new applications that are launched (or when KDE is relaunched) have nothing but boxes for the fonts, and, when I log out of KDE to KDM, everything appears as boxes. If I log in to KDE and check out the Fonts section in KControl, it just crashes.
Thinking it was just a KDE issue, I installed Fluxbox, and it won't even start.
This is a brand new installed based off of the 0.7.2 base ISO, and I've updated everything completely. Before the fonts are installed, everything is working perfectly. Any suggestions? Thanks!

On Friday I started to develop a page that had japanese translation. I had no problems with it.
Anyway, I realized something that may help you. No matter what font i choosed, japanesse characters where allways showed, and they were always the same.
It means that asian fonts override standard fonts. What can be happening to you is that you don't have the fonts properly configured (either the fonts by themselves, or in Xorg).
I don't know enough about fonts to give you more information about it, but what you should do after reading this is uninstall all asiatic fonts, install japanese fonts, install kde-i18n-jp and create an a user account with KDE set to japanese language and see if it works well to you. If it does not work then the problem is in your configuration. If it works well then do the same with the asian fonts. If they are still not working then to me it looks as a bug, and you should report it.

Script for collecting Asian fonts

Was having issues with Asian fonts last week and asked a question on the InDesign side of the fence, and scripting came up, which brought me over here to ask if such a script existed for collecting Asian fonts.

Hi Peter-Thanks for your response. A big "duh" on me re: the checkbox option that exempts the CJK fonts. Thing is, this is my first foray into using asian fonts after 30 odd years in this business. I am aware of where they appear in the font list so I am sure that they werent loading.
I do believe in having the most organized and pristine font possible. I've tried hard w/getting the ones Im working with into what I consider good shape, but who knows. I have also read no these forums to dispose of the .lst files. I havent done that in ages-I didnt realize that that still had an effect on fonts so I guess I'll give that a try next. In the past, Ive had great succcess cleaning up fonts and working w/Suitcase and even Font Explorer. This Font Agent Pro seems flakey to me. It has real problems with opening fonts dynamically. I have had to restart the computer several times in order for them to be recognized. But, sometimes not even that helps. Yesterday, I resorted to putting the fonts I needed in the User/Lib/Fonts Folder.
I cant really say that it's one or just a few certain fonts that I notice being problematic-it varies from doc to doc. Thank you for your input. Much obliged.

I have installed the font Broadway on my computer and it works in Microsoft Word but does not appear in the font list in InDesign. How can I fix this problem?

Start by rebooting the computer. If that doesn't work, search for adobefnt*.lst and delete all instances where * becomes a 2-digit number.

Resetting font on PS CS4 to English - keep showing fonts in Asian font

Can anyone help me?, I keep resetting the font preference to English, but many of the second half of my font list in PS keeps showing in Asian fonts not allowing me to see what the font preview looks like at all. These same fonts are in English in Ai on my computer with no trouble seeing the preview in English, but when using PS, they are not understandable. These fonts include ( see attachment) Odd because many of the standard fonts are preview just fine and then the lower list still is unreadable as it remain in Asian font. Help?
Thnaks - BIG Gratitude - K-Nine

Thanks Chris, but why can I see the preview perfectly of these very same font when I work in Ai, but now in Ps they remain in Asian script.
I love these fonts and can use them in Ai easily because I can see each one's preview in the scroll, but I can remember what they look like in Ps so I have to try each one out on some text to see what it looks like..it s a drag - any advice to get them to preview in Ps as the do in Ai? -Cheers

No bookmarks appear when attempting to oganize bookmarks

How can I make my bookmarks appear on the left like they did in much older versions? I don't like the "new look".

I've been using Firefox since it was Firebird. I like the way my bookmarks appeared on the left, but I *HATE* the way they look in newer versions. On my own machine, they still look like they did before, even tho I've upgraded to 22. But on other machines, even tho I've uninstalled 22 and gone back as far as 3.0, they change to the new style when I upgrade to 22. Grrrrrr.. :-(

{Ctrl + B} opens and close the Bookmarks Sidebar, as it always has with Phoenix, Firebird, Firefox.
You can also open the Bookmarks Sidebar with Alt > View -> Sidebar --< Bookmarks. Or you can use "Customize" and move the 2nd Bookmarks button on to a Toolbar and hide the "original" Bookmarks button at the same time.

Printing in Asian Font

My documents are printing in Asian font. I have HP officejet6310 all in one. When I go into properties, then advanced, "Download Asian Fonts" is checked, but I'm unable to uncheck.
Any ideas?

Hi there cobb,
To check for any software problems lets try downloading and running the print and scan doctor located here:
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c03275041&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en
It can fix a lot on its own and if not give a better idea of what is going on.
Best of Luck!

Asian fonts display in font book but show as Western fonts in apps!

Adobe apps still display Asian fonts as Western characters, even though I've changed language settings via the "international" control panel of System Preferences. Perhaps I have not done this correctly? I've restarted the machine after changes to Systems language prefs. Asian and other calligraphic fonts are all installed and display fine in Font Book. Is there a fix?

As my aim is to access character sets without the
need to change the language settings on my machine
That's exactly what Character Palette does.
think the ideal solution is to get a copy of
Fontographer and copy all the decorative fonts and
save them as standard fonts.
A total waste of time in my view.
True Futhark has several
characters that stand for phonetics not compatible
with plain roman alpha/qwerty keyboard use. I
understand the same is true of other fonts-there are
bound to be discrepancies.
Most of the characters in the world are not compatible with qwerty keyboard use. That's why in general people don't use that method to produce them, or try to jigger fonts so they might be able to.
Perhaps this is why so
many characters come up as "?" even when inserted
via the Finder's character palette?
This may be because your app is set to Latin-1 or some other limited encoding. It should be set to UTF-8. Try Character Palette with TextEdit and you will not get any ?'s.
Control+T does nothing in Adobe apps, as far as I can
see. Apple+T brings up the Type palette but there is
no "insert special character" option there.
I got that wrong. The combo for Apple apps is Option + Apple + T. I don't know if that works in Adobe (don't use them myself).
I did notice a wonderful
Tibetan font that must be on my machine somewhere,
though it does not show up in Font Book under "All
Fonts"!
These are part of the ST series of Chinese fonts. If you go to the Tibetan range in Character Palette you can see this and you can also input them in TextEdit or a UTF-8 doc. Or you can examine the contents of an ST font by putting Character Palette in glyph mode.
I guess ideally, for graphics use, one should get the
characters into a standard font file, as I suggest
above, and then type away merrily qwerty-style.
Some Asian scripts have thousands of characters. Using a qwerty keyboard to try to access a few of them from a recoded font is not something that anyone does as far as I know. They use a specialized Input Method or the Character Palette or a similar utility. Also unless you are truly transforming your output into graphics/photos, your input would be seen as qwerty on other machines.
suppose these decorative fonts are available on the
web somewhere, where those who sell them have gone to
the trouble of transcribing the characters in to an
'ordinary' font for you?
Never seen such things myself.
It seems a shame that Macs OSX can't grant you access
to all these decorative fonts (indeed, to all
installed fonts) in a more straight forward manner.
The Character Palette is the most straightforward manner possible for accessing such scripts, if you do not want to switch keyboard layouts. All computer system use a similar mechanism. It even has a Favorites section where you can store characters you want to use frequently so you can avoiding looking them up each time. If you have some specific problems using it, I'd be glad to help, here or by email (click on my name for the address).
Am I correct in these assumptions?
No, I think all of them are wrong myself.

Preview window from history bookmark appearing on sites

Why is the preview window of the history bookmark appearing on my screentweet page when I am about to upload an image?

It is possible I had an addon performing that task (I recently switched back to firefox after a 6+month absence). That said, I did see the description "SCAM" appear on the tab earlier today as I was testing the browser, only to immediately disappeared when I tried to jump from another web site to the one in question. After that, I couldn't replicate the even partial compliance to display the custom name again...
With regards to why I have them bookmarked - it is for the reason you noted above: while I won't order electronics from this vendor due to their horrendous reputation of sending DOA electronics and making customers pay shipping to get their money back, it is still a source of info and pricing for use in comparisons. I'd also like to be able to modify the name of sites who have a good reputation or I have used in the past...

HT2523 TextEdit always displays in an Asian font.

Whenever I try to open a document with TextEdit that's been created on a different computer, or downloaded, it displays with an Asian font. (My guess is Japanese.)
So, for example, if I create a document in TextEdit on my work computer and save it on Dropbox, when I get to this computer and open the document, it opens up with all of the text in Japanese. If I drag the document to Word and open it there, it opens and is in English and is just fine -- but I don't understand why it's opening ALL TextEdit documents using the wrong font. This happens with readme files downloaded from online, too. I just can't open documents with TextEdit!
I've checked what font is default, and it's Monaco and Helvetica.
Does anyone have any ideas about what's causing this and how to fix it? I'm running 10.6.8 on a 3.06 GHz Intel Core Duo iMac.

Such problems normally have nothing to do with fonts, but relate to encodings. Asian characters may mean the encoding is set to UTF-16. Check TextEdit/Preferences/Open and Save/Plain Text File Encodings/Opening Files.

Arial bold is loaded on my PC, but doesn't appear in the font picker

Arial is loaded but doesn't appear in the font picker window. I also get the message 'cannot find or create the font arial,bold. some charecters may not display or print correctly.
Thanks

Yes, it is an opentype font, installed i
n the correct place. As I mentioned before, I am having the same trouble with TrebuchetMS.
I have tried font applications such as font expert and suitcase, still no luck.
The fonts are recognised in applications such as Illustrator.
Thanks

Appearance of text/fonts on OS X

What do people think about the appearance of text/fonts on systems running OS X? As a long-time windows user, I find it might take a little getting used to.

Believe it or not, I think the latest FreeType interpreter does better, at least when its hint interpreter is enabled. Letterforms are sharper and yet not blocky.
I should say that when I switched my Linux system from a VGA-driven CRT to a DVI-driven LCD, I had to throw out all my old font settings and start over to get a good subjective result.
