Changing font in a text area?

how do you change the font in a text area
i thought it might have been navi.setFont(Font.Verdana);
but no ...

Right idea, but it's off. Try this:
navi.setFont(new Font("Verdana", Font.PLAIN, 12));

Font in a text area

I am creating a word processor which allows for font changes. it works to change the font, but it will change previously entered font in addition. i do not want text that has already been entered to be changed by new settings. how can i accomplish this?
for reference, this is an example of how i change the font:
oldFont = textArea.getFont();
textArea.setFont(new font(oldFont.getFontName(),Font.ITALIC,oldFont.getSize()));Thanks.

Ok, so I implemented a text Pane setup. Though, it still does the same thing. Any time an option is modified, all of the text will change.

                         StyleConstants.setFontSize(style, sizeValues[count] );
             // process font selection
             for ( int count = 0; count < fonts.length; count++ ){
                 if ( event.getSource() == fonts[ count ] ) {
                         StyleConstants.setFontFamily(style, fontNames[count] );
         } // end method actionPerformed
        } // end class ItemHandler
}How could I change this so that old text is not changed?
Thanks.

Font size in text area

I have columns defined as readonly text area in a report. I have created a template so that all the reports fields have a font size of 9px. Everything sets to 9px except the fields defined as text areas. can the font size be changed on text area in reports?

Hi Brian,
you can add class="myClass"
to the HTML Form Element Attributes region of the page item.
This should allow you to apply the appropriate font-size etc.
Alternatively, you could apply them directly to the input tag in your style sheet.
input {font-size:32;}
Regards
Michael

How do I change Fonts or manipulate text I am writing on Firefox? Is there a toolbar, or extension I can get to have easy access to these type of tools?

When writing comments or sending messages,etc., I would like to be able to have access to text options such as; bold, underline, change font, font size,color, etc. I've seen others do this but cannot find anything on my desktop to allow me these write tools.

Orange Firefox button>Options>Options>Security, Privacy etc.
If the Firefox button isn't showing - right click on a toolbar space and uncheck the Menu Bar, this will reveal the Firefox button and you can toggle from one to the other.
Or, in the Menu Bar>Tools>Options.

Italic and bold fonts for Hoefler Text are no longer available to MS Word

Apple provides regular, italic, black, and black italic styles for the Hoefler Text font. I've used them before but since I installed Snow Leopard, I cannot creat italic or bold (black) in MS Word. When I make text italic or bold (black), the characters disappear--the sentence shortens as if I had deleted the phrase, but if I change it back to regular, it reappears.
Font Book shows that I have all of these styles of Hoefler Text in the Library. I tried disabling and then enabling, but that didn't work. Has anyone else encountered this problem? If so, have you discovered a solution? Thank you.

Thanks for the file. It obviously helped, but I am not sure how. I probably should have taken careful notes about what I did by way of disabling and removing the .ttf fonts and then dragging in the .dfont variety. At one stage when I brought up a Hoefler document in Word, the regular Hoefler text had disappeared. I panicked and removed the .dfont version. Later, after trying something else, the text came back but (judging by the numerals) it was not Hoefler. To make a long story short, all styles of Hoefler (including italic and black) are now working. There are no duplicate font files—I used Remove Duplicates—but I have no Hoefler file in either of the two Fonts folders, even though I can see Hoefler Text in Font Book! To be safe, I used Font Book to export the Hoefler Text to a back-up folder, and the version it exported is the .ttf version. In Get Info I confirmed that it’s the 6.1d7e1 variety. I restarted the computer twice, and determined that this situation is stable. Go figure.
In any event, you set me on the right road. Hoefler Text is now working as it should. I appreciate your help.

End user have ability to change font style in text field of interactive pdf form?

Does the end user of an interactive pdf form able to change the font style, i.e.: make something bold or underline a word in a text field?
I am making a form with text fields and the end user would like the ability to make something bold or underline it.. I do not see anywhere in acrobat that allows styles to be changed.
I have created the form in Indesign > saved it as an interactive pdf and brought it into Acrobat.

Thank you for the quick response! Do you set this in Indesign before exporting or do you set this in Acrobat? I am in Acrobat 10.1.10 and when I go to properties it doesn't give me 'options' to choose from.

How to change font size of text inside a "text box" form the Drawing Markups?

Hi,
I expected there to be an option to change the font size after I selected the text and right-clicked, but no, there is only one option that allows you to change the text style but not the font size.
Does anyone know how to change the font size?

Don't know what the e-mail is about, why not just log into the forums. In any case, it does not sound like a text box, but one of the other text options (like the Typewriter tool). The regular text edit tool allows you to edit the text and fonts in a regular text box. Select the box and use ctrl-E. You may have to select the text edit tool (name changed in AAX) first. Such editing is not really recommended. Editting in Acrobat should be limited to simple changes, and those often become a pain. The best method of fixing the problem is in the original document and then creating a new PDF.

Changing Font on Alt text?

Is there a way to change the font/color of alternative text?
Or is this all part of the user browser specifications?
Thanks!

No, you cannot change that. But the alt attribute's value is
not displayed
in any modern browser except for IE. Perhaps you should
consider using the
title attribute, which is displayed in all browsers?

Change font colour in Text Field

If I have typed 'The Cat Sat On The Mat' into a text field yet I want 'The Cat' to appear in bold and the rest as normal, how can I do this or even in a different colour?
Any help would be appreciated

The only way to do this, is a text field that you change from plain text to rich text.
Then you can enter what you want, press ctrl+b to make something bold.
If you want to see the content of your box, use TextField.value.exData.saveXML() ...

Change font color shifts text in Acrobat XI PRO

When I go into an acrobat document and try to chnage the font color, it shifts the text and the paragraph it's in. I contacted Adobe about it a few months ago and they told me it was a know bug.
When is it going to be fixed?

Since this is a user-to-user forum, we don't have access to that type of information.

Increasing the size of designated text area in a photo book

I am using IPhoto version 9.5.1 on a MacBook Pro (10.9.2). I am trying to increase the designated text area so that I can increase the font size. This will allow for the final product to be more legible. Currently, I am featuring a student per page. The designated text areas are 4 separate sections on these pages. I would like to include on each page the following.
Aviator
Person's Name
Algebra I
Homecoming Dance
When I increase the font size in those 4 designated areas, the red caution triangle with exclamation point states, 'This text doesn't fit the designated text area!'
I have two questions.
1. How do I increase the text area so the larger text will fit and print properly?
2. Is there an overall command that I can input these increases to the text area so that the 36 papes have the same changes in the designated text areas? Otherwise, I will have to make those changes for each individual pages that are featuring a student.

You can "adjust" a photo frame or text box size on a page with the following key combinations:
Command + Option +⬆arrow: increase frame height.
Command + Option +⬇arrow: decrease frame height.
Command + Option + ➜ arrow: increase frame width.
Command + Option + ⬅ arrow: decrease frame width.
To adjust its position on the page use these key combinations:
Command + Control + ➜ arrow: move frame to right.
Command + Control + ⬅ arrow: move frame to left.
Command + Control + ⬆ arrow: rotate frame counter clockwise.
Command + Control + ⬇ arrow: rotate frame clockwise.
You can conver the standard frame (on the left) to this one (on the right)
Always be sure to create a PDF file of the book for proofing before ordering a book. This Apple document describes how to create the PDF file: iPhoto, Aperture: Previewing an order in iPhoto or Aperture. Keep the PDF file to compare it with the printed copy when it arrives.
If you have Pages you can easily create custom book pages as images and add them to a 1 photo per page layout by following this tutorial: iP11 - Creating a Custom Page, with the Theme's Background for an iPhoto Book
