Character Viewer is Blank

I have been using Character Viewer for sometime. When I opened it today there were no characters displayed. It seems as if the viewer is not seeing my fonts. All the font setting seem to be normal without problem.

Yeah I'm having the same problem. I've been using symbols for my math documents for quite some time and now I can't view any of them.

  • How to get character viewer to show a specific font

    Previously you could specify a font to see it's characters and glyphs. Now I don't see how to do that. What am I missing? or has that gone the way of font specification in the keyboard viewer too?

    Yes, this feature has been omitted from Lion Character Viewer.  You might try PopChar.  And you can ask Apple to put it back here:

  • How to get Character Viewer to stay visible (esp. in Word for Mac)?

    I'm asking this on behalf of a friend who has a 2013 13-inch (non-retina) MackBook Pro and uses it with an Apple Cinema Display. Since the upgrade to Mavericks the behaviour of the Character Viewer has changed, where it no longer 'sticks' (stays both active and on top) as a visible window when you switch applications: now it needs to be called up from within each application, and will be visible when working with that app.
    He needs the Character Viewer open all the time and this change is inconvenient (he draws special characters from it constantly). But the main problem is that he mostly works in MS Word for Mac and as far as I can tell Microsoft have not updated Word to respect the behaviour Mavericks intends for Character Viewer: to stay visible while working. Instead, the Character Viewer window randomly closes. So, while hoping for an update from MS (but not holding breath since they provide their own inferior version of a glyph viewer in Word)) I have two questions:
    1. Can anyone suggest a way, perhaps using Applescript or Automator (which I don't know how to use), to make the Character Viewer always stay open and visible while using any application? This would be the preferable solution, in effect restoring the behaviour seen before Mavericks.
    Or
    2. Can someone give us some guidance on how to make a custom keyboard shortcut in Word for Mac that we could assign to bring up the (OSX) Character Viewer, since the usual system shortcut for that (control-command-space) is not respected in Word. Or alternatively, an Applescript or Automator solution for this that would be available from within Word?
    Thanks!

    Did you try:
    ->System Preferences->Keyboard and check [ ] Show Keyboard & Character Viewers in menu bar
    It closes when I switch desktops with spaces or open another App, but it displays when I go back to the Word window

  • Where is character view in 10.9.4?

    I used to have in the old MacBook Air (OS 10.7.5) in the banner in the desktop window next to the computer name/date/clock/battery displays. On the new Air (10.9.4) I got nada. I went through system prefs, lightly googled, found nothing on "help," etc. Is it just gone in this version? I need it because I used accents in Mail, Word, Safari, etc.

  • How do you add a dingbat to character viewer in order to select it?

    I understand that being unicode pages cannot use ITC Zaph dingbats from the keyboard that i need to use the special characters. very awkward! but how do i insert a character from zaph dignbat into special characters?
    thank you

    If I open Font Book, and choose named font, I can see a list of symbols, e.g.
    If I open Character Viewer, and switch to Pictographs, I can see something like this
    so I assume that named font includes chars in the category Pictographs, which you can use at ease, I hope.
    If you need them frequently, you may create your custom keyboard layout, if you wish this, come back with what you wish.
    Screenshots are in Lion, but the procedure is the same, I hope.

  • Glyph View in Character Viewer?

    Back in Snow Leopard, we had the possibility to view all characters of a certain font if we selected "View>Glyph" in the character viewer. In Lion, this option seems to be missing. Is there any way to browse all characters of a specific font?
    The reason I need this: I have several special fonts with symbols for scientific work (really specialized fonts, with characters you won't find in the symbols Apple provides). In SnowLeopard, they didn't show up in the character viewer as normal symbols, but in Glyph View one could select the font and then all characters were displayed, so one could easily select the right symbol (my friends using Windows could even assign a keyboard shortcut for each character in their character viewer).

    No, thanks.  That still doesn't let you show the characters that are availalble for a particular font.  That big assortment of arrows it's showing?  Essentially useless, because they're not available in any font I can find.
    I did discover a cumbersome workaround by using both Font Book and Character Viewer.
    1. Go into Font Book and select the "custom" preview.  Put the cursor in that editable preview area.
    2. Now go over to Character Viewer and double-click the character or symbol you're interested in.  It will be pasted into the "custom" preview of Font Book.  However, there's a bug; for some reason after the special character is pasted in, the glyphs that were showing for the font will return to being boxes.  You have to select a different font and come back, in order to display the glyphs again.
    You can now use the up/down arrow keys to step through all the fonts in Font Book and at least see which fonts have the character(s) you're looking for.

  • How do I insert Greek characters from the character viewer in Lion?

    In Lion, the Character Viewer shows many more options for different characters than SL.  Of course, it displays Latin, but, as I scientist I often need to insert Greek characters, but I cannot find Greek characters in the Character Viewer.  I don't otherwise need to select Greek as a language.  Inserting Greek characters from some applications like MS Word still works.
    And ... while I'm here ... what happened to the "insert" button?  -j

    Click the gear icon to edit your list:
    Select Customize List:
    and check "Greek"

  • How do I get character viewer to display the names of the radicals in Japanese, as they were until Lion

    In Leopard, Character Viewer displayed the names of the radicals of Japanese characters in Japanese.
    Now I have Lion, the radicals all have English names which are totally different and impossible to search phonetically. I can't find a way to choose the language of the Character Viewer. Do I have to set the whole iMac to use Japanese as its basic language? That would be a pain for everything else.
    Thanks for looking.

    If you put Japanese at the top of the Langauge tab list, but do not logout/login, then only newly opened apps will appear in Japanese.  That way you can get only Character Viewer in Japanese.   Maybe this will also work
    http://www.tj-hd.co.uk/en-gb/languageswitcher/
    Another approach would be to open the Character Viewer app and modify its .lproj folders.
    If you still have a copy of Leopard, you may be able to transplant its Character Viewer app to Lion and use it as an independent app.

  • A lot of characters missing from "Character Viewer" .. can I get them?

    Most musical symbols show an empty box.
    Other categories too...
    Could I've erased them? With CleanMyMac maybe?

    Character Viewer isn't doing what I want it to do, can somebody help me?
    Here's the issue: I have a font installed called Anastasia, which contains musical symbols. I would like to be able to bring up its whole character set on the screen so I can pick which character to insert in my document. It seems to me that this is what Character Viewer is intended to do; however, I can find no way to view the character set for this particular font, Anastasia. The "Muscial Symbols" collection brings up a limited set of symbols, such as notes, but it's an incomplete set and it does not show Anastasia as one of the available font variations. This font is definitely installed and at least one of my installed apps uses it routinely. But it doesn't seem to be accessible through Character Viewer. What am I doing wrong?
    Thanks!

  • Character viewer window has no content

    Character viewer is on top menu, the window comes up, with Math, Arrows, etc., but nothing shows up when I select any of the categories in left hand window.
    Is there a preference file I can delete?
    Thanks.

    Is there a preference file I can delete?
    Yes, the .plist with CharacterPalette in its name in Home/Library/Preferences

  • The character viewer no longer shows the complete unicode map, as it had in SnowLeopard. How do I get it back?

    Just upgraded to Lion. The character viewer, which previously allowed one to see the entire unicode map for each font, no longer does this. It shows only certain kinds of symbols, not all of them. I am unhappy: I need to be able to access alternative letters and symbols, not just European vowels. Can someone help me?

    Hi Sally,
    I is still there, but a bit hidden.
    1. Open the character viewer
    2. Open the gear menu in the top left corner and select 'customize list...'
    3. Go down to the bottom of the list 'Select categories...' and open 'Code Tables'.
    4. Mark 'Unicode' for inclusion and click 'Done'.
    Now open in the character viewer window the freshly added 'Unicode' category.
    It is a bit cramped, but there it is: the old and trusted character viewer with all unicode categories and associated font variations.
    good luck!
    regards,
    Twan

    I am not using HTML renderer but PDF renderer. See code below:

                   RetrieveData oRetrieveData = null;
                   oRetrieveData = new RetrieveData();
                   if (format == "pdf") {
                        // Get a Document info object in character view format.
                        RetrieveBinaryView oRetrieveBinaryView = new RetrieveBinaryView();
                        ViewSupport oViewSupport = new ViewSupport();
                        oViewSupport.setOutputFormat(OutputFormatType.PDF);
                        oViewSupport.setViewType(ViewType.BINARY);
                        oViewSupport.setViewMode(ViewModeType.REPORT_PAGE);
                        oRetrieveBinaryView.setViewSupport(oViewSupport);
                        oRetrieveData.setRetrieveView(oRetrieveBinaryView);
                        // retrieve binary data
                        boDocInfo = oReportEngine.getDocumentInformation(documentCUID, null, null, null, oRetrieveData);
                        documentCUID = boDocInfo.getDocumentReference();
                        BinaryView oBinaryView = (BinaryView) boDocInfo.getView();
                        docContents = oBinaryView.getContent();
    In the mean time I already figured out that I need to use ViewModeType.REPORT_PAGE as you sugested.
    Problem we are having now is that PDF rendering takes at best 6 seconds on pageserver.exe to render report. But if we render it on CR Developer, it renders imediately.
    Report is referencing stored procedure on oracle.

  • Imported older PDFs view as blank pages but print ok

    As far as Onyx is concerned, the homepage is flogging MacKeeper (ugh). Is Onyx MacKeeper in disguise?

  • Can't insert characters from Character Viewer

    I have used Character Viewer in the past. The way it worked was to highlight the character in Character Viewer and then click the "insert" button. I can bring up Character Viewer and see all the characters, but even after highlighting a character, I cannot insert it into the document.
    Anybody else have the same problem? Any suggestions?
    Thanks!

    You need to have a machine with 10.6 on it, then find the CharacterPalette.app in System/Library/Input Methods, then move it to your mountain lion machine.
