Chinese Web Safe Fonts

Hi,
Is that correct that there is no way to use Chinese web safe fonts in Muse?
I've been looking around and found only a few references but no solutions. It's quite surprising because it's not only a deal-breaker for me, needing Chinese fonts for a lot of my projects, but I believe also for an ever growing number of designers targeting Chinese speaking audience. And it's not like that there are no web safe Chinese fonts out there (to name just a few: Hiragino Sans GB (冬青黑体简体中文) Microsoft Yahei (微软雅黑) Simsun (宋体) Simhei (黑体)).

Unfortunately you cannot use Chinese web safe fonts , you can try self-hosting if you can find Chinese fonts that can be licensed for use on the web.
Thanks,
Sanjit

Need Chinese web safe fonts.

I can't find Chinese web safe fonts in Adobe Muse even I switched to Chinese version Muse.
Hope you can help this because we do not prefer to use the fonts located in my computer as it would exports as image.
Thank you so much for any replies.
And this is pretty urgent, thank you thank you !!!!

Hi,
Sorry, there are no "Chinese fonts" deisgnated as "web-safe" in Muse.
Do you have some examples of Chinese fonts that are broadly available (on Chinese OS), and can be considered "web-safe"?
Thanks,

Use of non web-safe fonts during in-browser editing

Hello.
I'll looking into setting up in-browser editing so allow others to update the site without me.
However, the site uses non-web-safe fonts from my computer's font library. Can they update text that uses non-web-safe fonts that they might not own on their computers?
Thanks,
David

Hi Brad.
Thanks for your help!
So, just to clarify...
Even though my website uses a non-web-safe font throughout, it can still be edited in browser mode? (My concern is your mention of "editable region" as my text is saved as an image rather than as text due to the fact the font is a non-web-safe font - does this matter?)
And lastly, you're saying even though the font won't be installed on the user's own font library, it can still recreate the edited text in the existing font? This seems surprising, but pretty amazing if true?
Many thanks!!
David

Why isn't Tahoma in the list of web-safe fonts? (Was: Tahoma)

Why they didnt add Tahoma on web safe fonts? I hope they will add this to the next update.

Hi,
We're always considering different bundling opportunities but
we didn't think it was the right fit for CS3 right as CS3 launched.
We may do something later, but for now you'll need to purchase

How do I export my document in SVG using web safe fonts?

I currently have a document using text and when I try to export, I need this to be showing properly in IE. As per my reading, there is two ways I can do that:
- Export SVG with fonts as outline: this I can't use as the file size is really too large.
- Export SVG with fonts type set to SVG and Subsetting set to None (Use System Fonts). This option would only work if my fonts are web safe fonts like Arial (there are really only 5 true web safe fonts I believe).
When I use the second option, the problem I get is that the font that is put in my resulting svg xml is not really the web safe font. This is what I get out of Illustrator:
<text transform="matrix(1 0 0 1 46 50.0918)" font-family="'ArialMT'" font-size="12">Test SVG</text>
<text transform="matrix(1 0 0 1 58.5 186.5)" font-family="'Arial-BoldMT'" font-size="12">TEST BOLD</text>
There are two things that are weird:
- Why does it use ArialMT when it should be Arial or Arial-BoldMT when it should be Arial with font-weight="bold"?
- Why does it put the font inside single quotes inside the double quotes?
If I manually replace the above by this, it works:
<text transform="matrix(1 0 0 1 46 50.0918)" font-family="arial" font-size="12">Test SVG</text>
<text transform="matrix(1 0 0 1 58.5 186.5)" font-family="arial" font-weight="bold" font-size="12">TEST BOLD</text>
Can someone please help me?
Thanks

Web safe fonts

Hi. I was wondering if the Nueva Std font is a web safe font. I did some research on it and it is apparently from Adobe. I do have Adobe Photoshop Elements 8. I would like to use this font on my website if possible.
Thanks!

These are the Web Safe Fonts. Either use them or convert your text box to an image as Wyodor suggested. It will add "weight" to the page for loading, i.e. an additional image file, which might be an issue with Internet Explorer.

How are non iWeb sites able to use non "web-safe fonts?

I know there is a list of "x" number of "web-safe fonts" that we should stick to. However, we all see incredible fonts all over the internet on non iWeb sites.
What is it that makes the non-safe fonts work for them. Is there anything we can do to make those fun fonts work for us? I don't have specific examples (sorry). . .just looking for a general answer
Thanks,

The type of file compression to use for web pages is dictated by the number of colors required. Since graphics slow down a web site, your mission is to get the best overall appearance, with the smallest file sizes. The most popular forms of graphic compression are .gif and .jpg
.gif files are limited to 256 colors which work very well for non-photo types of graphics (logo's, etc) and .gif also supports transparency, where you can actually make a graphic appear to be 'cut-out' against a different color background. Gradients do not work well with .gif files.
.jpg files are more suitable for photo's due to the thousands or even millions of shades of colors in skin tones, vegetation, whatever. Jpg's do not support transparency or animation.
Photoshop Elements would be a very good program to pick as an overall web and photo retouching program. The "Save For Web" feature is sweet. You can even continue to use iPhoto to manage your photo library and choose a program like Photoshop as an 'External Editor' to actually work on the pictures.
Adobe Illustrator is probably not where you want to start. There is a learning curve to work with shapes (vectors) instead of actual dots on a page, and it's native format is not compatible with any web browsers. It's really not suitable for photo's at all. It is very powerful when working with commercial graphics that need to be sharp at all sizes, but probably more than you want to deal with.

Muse, how can i select "web safe fonts" in korean font?

when i using Muse,
how can i select "web safe fonts" in korean font?
there are only english web safe fonts in muse.
so i can't select national language(korean) in web safe fonts...
a there any updates about this..?
now in muse, i always using korean fonts in image;;

At this time, English and Japanese is the only locale for which Muse provides an alternative set of web-safe fonts. You wouldn't see them in Korean. A similar thread here - http://forums.adobe.com/message/5492379

Web safe fonts - Baby Theme site 1.0

Hello
I'm using the Baby Theme template from 1.0, does anyone know why my content font is being displayed in IE in the Times New Roman font when I have specifically changed the content font to Copper Black in iWeb.
Can I change the buttons (for blog, albums, movies) font which is defaulted to Hoefler to match the font I'm using for the content.
Thanks

why would Apple create template with non web safe font if my users want to view this using IE
Probably to make things a bit nicer for Mac users, since they will have all these fonts on their machine and it will look the same for them as it does to the author. Apple doesn't always restrict its templates, either regarding fonts or other features, to what works best for Windows users.
The basic principle is that the viewer must have the font installed on his machine in order to have it display correctly, unless you convert your text into an image (normally done by adding an invisible degree of shadow to your font).

Is there a list of web-safe fonts that Captivate 8 will accept or an option to include other web-safe fonts?

The problem I've encountered is that text generated by a variable will only display as a web safe font and not always the same one across machines. Also different developers are seeing different font options. For instance on my machine, Helvetica LT 75 Bold is listed, but no other Helvetica options. Another developer has Helvetica LT 77 Bold Condensed instead.
My questions are:
Is there a list of web-safe fonts that CP8 will use?
Can this list be expanded somehow?
Thank you,
Kelly

Web safe fonts really doesn't have the same meaning as something like web safe colors. While you will generally be OK with selecting a web safe font, it's only web safe in the concept of a font then defaulting to a font on the end users computer that they actually have installed. The default types are serif, sans-serif, and monotype, but then you have more distinct variations which you can see here, CSS Web Safe Fonts.
You'll need to keep in mind that not every person has Arial or Times New Roman installed. Because of this you may have someone that has Helvetica or Times. Both fall under their same respective font families, but will look a little different depending on what the user has installed.

Why is that some of the web safe fonts from typekit simply will not work in Muse?

I don't get it. I am frustrated as it seems there are a NUMBER of fonts that I just grabbed from typekit that just don't work. Running latest OS on a Mac btw.
I also don't understand why a font like Myriad Pro (which I know is a web safe font) is not included in typekit? If you check out the typekit website, they have myriad pro. However, it's not available in Muse, yet it IS available in AI. Very weird!
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thank you.

I believe that it is only select Typekit fonts that have been allocated to be used in Muse - not all of them. If you browse the available Typekit fonts THOUGH Muse, you can see what's available to use.
Sorry, but you might be misinformed; Myriad Pro is not a web safe font, the fact that it's in AI, ID etc is because it's common and usually bundled with a lot of Adobe software, but not " web safe". Just a common face.

Alignment issues with menu widget and added web safe fonts

I wanted to use a font that was not already on the web safe list so I added one. I have a background rectangle I drew in muse for the main navigation to center on. In muse, I have to shift the menu almost entirely off the rectangle for it to appear centered on the rectangle in the browser. The sub nav I created has a background fill to match the rectangle the main nav sits on. Even though there is no overlapping in muse, there is overlapping of the sub nav fill and the rectangle behind the main nav in the browser. So it looks like 50% white fill on top of 50% white fill. It's obvious and looks stupid! Is this a program bug??? Using CC muse.

I have this issue fixed. But now I'm having a new issue with objects shifting. I really think it's just Muse and the program is buggy! I have read and watched everything I can find on Muse and it's supposed to be so simple a print designer can create beautiful websites. Well, I am a web designer. I understand code. I have used Dreamweaver for 8 years. I wanted to see what was so great about Muse. I'm finding out NOTHING! Because of it's bugs I spend hours trying to fix problems the program creates. I should have just stuck with Dreamweaver! Thanks for trying to help...

Web safe fonts that change looks

I've built my website using iWeb '08 (2.0.4) running on my iMac (OS X 10.4.11) and hosted through my MobileMe account (but redirected from a domain name).
I spent yesterday afternoon changing several pages so they would be searchable (not rendered as .PNGs). To do so, I converted from my original fonts and I chose ones from the "web" list.
But when I publish, the fonts are NOT displaying the same in the browser as they do in iWeb. (In most cases they are much harder to read.)
I did a screenshot in which you can see both iWeb (top) and Safari (bottom) at the same time and it is at
http://www.crookedspruce.net/Site/FontProblem.html
The two fonts in this picture are Impact and Trebuchet MS. That "fuzziness" is not because of some change in scale in the screenshot (I kept it full scale) - it exists in the original (which you can see by going to the "Welcome" page on that site. Since both programs are running on the same computer, the same fonts should be installed. right? and these are supposed to be web fonts anyway?
How do I get the two to look the same?

I reviewed the CSS and XHTML pages involved (once I figured out where they were hiding), and found no unusual font effects.
Independent of trying to resolve this issue, I performed a complete system reinstall (partition and start over) to Leopard (10.5.7) and iWeb '09 (3.0.1).
(along the way, I encountered some confusion with my MobileMe account, so the demonstration page is now at
http://www.crookedspruce.net/CrookedSpruceSite/FontProblem.html
The net result... the composed and published versions now look the same on my iMac.
Maybe it was a system issue with my installed fonts?
