Directwrite Fonts different from IE

Hi guys,
I have enabled directwrite for my Firefox however I realised that the fonts that it is showing is different from those in IE10.
Is this due to a setting in Firefox? Is it possible to achieve the kind of directwrite rendering that IE10 is providing?
I know this is weird but I do like the blurry fonts in IE10.
Heres a screenshot comparison:

If there are problems when hardware acceleration is enabled then try to tune the setting with this extension:
*Anti-Aliasing Tuner: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/anti-aliasing-tuner/
Try to set the gfx.content.azure.enabled pref to false or if this didn't help disable Direct2D by setting the gfx.direct2d.disabled pref to true on the about:config page and leave hardware acceleration otherwise enabled.
Make sure that you have the latest version of the graphic display driver.

Font differs from Linux and Windows ?

Hi, i just want to ask, are fonts different from windows and linux in applet. I use a standard courier font.
For example, if i make an applet with courier font texts in linux, and make the texts wrap themselves, they will run ok in linux. But if i run the compiled applet in windows, the wrapped text somewhow got truncated.
But if i compile the applet in windows, it will look ok in linux and windows.
I've tried replacing my courier fonts in my /usr/java/jdk/jre/lib/fonts/cour*.ttf with the cour*.ttf from c:\windows\fonts with no effects .. Applets compiled and run ok in linux doesnt work in windows. They must be compiled in windows to run ok in both.
Why is that ?
Does the compilation use the fonts in the jdk lib or the system fonts ?
I'm so confused T_T
Please Help

How do I get Mac OS 10.4.4 and Word X for Mac to see
all the characters in the Word for PC document
formatted in Times New Roman?
There's no way with Office X, which can't do Unicode Greek. You need to upgrade to Office 2004 which is Unicode-savvy and installs in your Mac the same Times New Roman with Greek, Cyrillic, Hebrew, and Arabic which is used by WinXP. An alternative might be AbiWord or NeoOffice/J.

Bursting Program PDF Fonts different from Report Program PDF

We have designed a new XML Publisher report which uses bursting mecahnism to send out the output pdf to supplier. The report rdf completes successfully and generates the pdf with right fonts (Font Mapping configured in XML Publisher Administrator). AfterReport trigger of this report triggers the bursting program. This program sends out the pdf to the right recepients. But this pdf that comes through mail has different fonts then what it was in the output of first program. Can some one guide on how to get the same pdf fonts through bursting email file that is similar to the one that was generated through Report Program. Any help will be highly appreciated.

Help font differs from topic font after reinstall

Hi
We have an old system that occasionally has an update. We use
RH X5. My hard disk crashed Monday and IT reinstalled Robohelp. I
updated a topic today. The original font was Arial 8. When I
recompiled the Help, the topics in the document that I updated are
displayed in the Help file in Times New Roman 8. Topics that have
not compiled are still in Arial 8. I created a small test help file
from scratch and the topic is displayed in Times New Roman 8.
Any ideas how I can get the proper font size back?

Thank you so much. The there was an answer (replace
HPJ2Hlp.dll) in the technotes forum (Font is substituted with Times
New Roman on WinHelp export). I downloaded the dll file and it
worked!

Why is the font of text fields different from document-text

I am using forms in my pdf.
I am inserting Text-Fields in the pdf-form.
I set the color and size of text as the same as the document text as calibri 9.
1) Why is the font different between the text-field and document content eventhough both are black font of size 9 and of type calibri. The font in the text-field is more gray and blurry. It doesnt look the same as the text in the rest of the document.
2) why do the document-text font options differ from the text-field font options.
One has only sizes with even numbers like 8, 10, 12. The other has odd numbers also. Why does the calibri font have 2 different size ranges for the text-fields and document-text/content.

Yes you are correct, it is with the setting of the properties.
Where do i report this then if it is not with the SDK but the manual setting of properties.
Also, how do i alter this ussue with the SDK, what are the commands, does it have to be done only by Javascript?

The font of text marker insertion is different from before

A strange behaviour from a while: the default font of text marker insertion is different from before. I don't remember what font was before, but surely not the one of now.
I think it's probably due to "firefox" installation (it has caused also a system preferences modification I discovered with a lot of trouble...)
Anyway, how I can restore the "old" default font of marker text insertion?
(the problem occurs only on insertion because in arrange the usual font view is maintained)

its hard to work out what your problem exactly is. can you give more details? why is the text marker font important? do you mean how it displays in the text marker editor?

Font of alpha list bullets is different from the bullet text

TCS3/FM10/RH9
Windows XP
I have several alpha lists and the font of the alpha bullet is different from the font of the alpha bullet. How do I change this in CSS?
Thanks in advance.

William,
Rather than make the change in the project, I would rather make the change in the stylesheet. I was aware of the multiple stylesheets and use the old fmstyles.css to govern the project.
How would I make this change in the stylesheet?
Thank you so much for your help.

I cant' control the font - size displayed during edition is different from the ones (1 or more - never know) sent.

1) When I edit my e-mail, the font is always the same - arial 10 pts. But once the e-mail is sent, what I can see in my 'sent' box and what the receiver gets is all messed up, especially when I have pasted some text. There are parts with huge font and there are with such a small one that it's difficult to read it. Or the whole text is extremely large or tiny.
I need to write in HTML for I often must highlight some parts. I searched many forums but nowhere found any answer.
2) When i get an e-mail the problem is similar: it can be written with the letters you can distinguish from the other side of the room or on a contrary - you would use binoculars to read it comfortably. The least font is set to 10 pts.
Thunderbird 31.3.0, Win 7 (64).

From John Waller: “If you're using IE8, hit F12 to launch Developer Tools which give you a point and click method of locating the relevant CSS rule on screen.”
I have Internet Explorer 8 (IE8) so tried this method.
This sounded like another promising possibility; however, I have not been able to change the font size in my post using this method.
I have gone to Dashboard > Posts > Edit > then moused-over my post > clicked on "edit" and then hit F12. An enormous amount (20 pages or more) of CSS appears. I tried picking out the font size that I thought pertains to the post (under Text Area), and I have changed the font size from 13px to 24px; however, I have not been able to “save” the new setting. When I go back to it, it is back to 13px.
As a result, I have not been able to use a trial-and-error method to establish which font size I must change in order to change the font size of my post.

User fonts missing from book but still in folder

Help. My user fonts suddenly don't show up in font book. I've tried all the standard fixes.
- restarted in SAFE mode.
- cleared the font cache
- verified the disc
- repaired permissions
- reinstalled both font book and the user font folder from an older version in Time Machine
- Verified all the fonts.
I haven't tried tossing them in another user account yet because I find the idea of having to reset up the entire user account alarming. Is there anything else I can try? These fonts all worked just days ago.
If I click on the fonts in the user folder they come up 'installed' and reappear. But as soon as I close and reopen fontbook they disappear again.
Here's the general console readout (the short version, there is a lot more of the same.)

This might be too late to help Starhorsemac, but I just solved a nearly identical problem on my iMac running Mountain Lion.
The problem turned out to be that the fontd lauchd agent had been disabled for my account. Re-enabling the agent made all of my user fonts re-appear in Font Book.
To check and see if fontd is running, open a terminal window and type:
     launchctl list | grep -i fontd
If fontd is running, you'll get a line similar to this:
     154     -     com.apple.fontd
If fontd is running, your problem is different than mine.
If fontd is not running, you can start it with this command:
     launchctl load -wF -D system com.apple.fontd
I hope someone finds this useful.

Portal 902. Uploaded document differs from downloaded document.

We are currently trying to set-up a portlet, which would include items (documents, images etc.). The problem we faced in that process is related to portal's storing process. We uploaded a pdf-file (Java API Guide from otn.oracle.com) as a simple file. Then, attempting to open the same file from portal, we got different errors: "the file is damaged and could not be repaired", "error reading xref entry" etc. Since these errors refer to acrobat reader and browser conflict we turned that "open in browser" option off in Adobe Acrobat. After this, the situation did not improve. Still, it was possible to download the document from the portal as a file. We downloaded the file and made a binary comparison. The result was quite intereseting since the size of both (uploaded to portal and downloaded from portal) was the same (210 Kb) but the content was different. I will add also a excerpt from that downloaded file that differed from the initial file. How could we avoid similar problems in the future? Thank you.

I am having the exact same problem on 10.1.4. I have a pdf on my desktop which opens fine in Acrobat reader (v 7.0). I upload it to my portal page as a file and when I click on the link I get the "this file is damaged and cannot be repaired" message. I downloaded the portal version of the PDF and an extra 66 bytes had been added to it.
I only get this in my live environment as the file uploaded OK in user test. I have uploaded other PDF files and they can be viewed OK.
Has anyone come across and fixed this in the six years since the original post?
Thanks,
Steven.

Japanese font different on iPhone 5s?

Today I configured my new iPhone 5s and noticed that the Japanese font is different from the iPhone 4.
Look at the first lines of tekst.
iPhone 4:
And iPhone 5s:
Anyone else noticed this too? Can I change this font? (I like the font on the 4 better)

lexvo wrote:
Well I have only set a Japanese keyboard as second keyboard and no other languages (besides my main language Dutch).
The keyboards don't matter, but the order of the languages in the list of those for the OS interface can be important. For example, if you have Chinese higher on that list than Japanese, you can sometimes find that a Chinese font is being used for Japanese text. So it is good to make sure Japanese is higher, even if the one on top is Dutch or whatever.

Menu-text in burned DVD is different from original

I have created a simple menu consisting of a row of ten buttons. Each button has a persons name in it. All the ten names/buttons are aligned. In the simulator everthing is OK but when I play the burned DVD the row of names is not aligned anymore and the space between different words in 1 button are different from the original as well. How do I change this?

sometimes duplicate fonts can re-format themselves this way when different version with the same names are used. If resolving duplicates in font book doesn't do the trick, I'd recommend using photoshop instead of DVDSP to create the menu

When I test my animation it runs differently from when I drag the timline

When I test my animation it runs differently from when I drag
the timline.
I have a mask with text under it and I reveal the text from
left to right with a rectangular mask. I then squish and then
desquish the test. In the movie it does none of this.

Select the text field on the stage and in the properties
panel at the bottom of the screen you will see a small drop down
menu which will be displaying either static, input or dynamic. Just
change it to static OR if you NEED to use dynamic text then you
need to embed yopur font so select the text field and select embed
from the properties panel, then select the oprion you need from
there.
Hope this helps

PS CS5 Image Display Differs From Used ICC Profile In Win 7

Hi,
on my Windows 7 Ultimate x64 machine, I just calibrated my Dell SP2309W monitor using an i1DisplayPro and basICColor 5, creating a ICC v2 profile (I am aware of the problems under Windows with ICC v4 profiles).
It created the ICC profile and applied it to be used by Windows. I double checked under COLOR MANAGEMENT that the new ICC profile is being used. Although I can see that the new ICC is being used (desktop appearance changes), there are a few issues I am experiencing:
(1.) Windows Photo Viewer
The thumbnails in Windpows Explorer look fine (they DO use the new ICC profile), when I double click a jpeg and open the image it DOES NOT use the new ICC profile. When I click the PLAY SLIDESHOW button (starting the slideshow) in the opened image in Windows Photo Viewer, the images DO use the new ICC profile.
(2.) Internet Browsers
All current internet browser (Firefox, IE, Safari and Chrome) DO use the new ICC profile and display the image correctly.
(3.) Photoshop CS 5
When I open the same image - that Windows Photo Viewer does not correctly displays (according to the new ICC profile) - in Photoshop CS5, I get the same image display that Windows Photo Viewer gives me (when not thumbnail or not in slideshow mode) - it appears to be the sRGB display.
My color settings in PS CS5 are: North America General Purpose 2 > sRGB IEC 61966-2.1.
When I go to View > Proof Setup > Monitor RGB I get the image display using the new ICC profile.
Why does the image look different in PS than my calibrated monitor should output ?
I was under the impression (please correct me if I am wrong), that the sole purpose for calibrating my monitor was to get a uniform display across (ICC aware) applications. Even when one applies different color spaces to a document in PS, I thought the output on my calibrated screen done by the graphic card should always be according to my calibration and the settings in the ICC profile being used.
What Am I doing wrong or what am I misunderstanding ?
Any help or input is appreciated !
Thanks.

Hello,
A note on monitor calibration: calibrating your monitor will not guarentee that every application will display color correctly, it's more of a step along the pipeline, and for the preview part of a color workflow it's the last step. Here's how color translation follows for an ICC workflow when previewing to a monitor:
Image Color Numbers > Document Tag or Workspace Profile > Monitor Profile
For non-color managed applications, if the original document is or isn't tagged with a color profile it will be translated directly to the monitor profile anyway. This is the equivalent in Photoshop of selecting "Monitor" in soft proofing. Selecting monitor in softproofing will bypass the tagged or workspace profile to translate colors directly through the monitor profile.
For most automatic color managed applications (like Firefox), the image will be translated through the tagged profile and then sent through the monitor profile. If the image is untagged or the profile is unrecognized, the colors get sent directly to the monitor profile.
For Photoshop, a tagged document will have its profile respected and then sent to the monitor. An untagged document will be assigned the workspace profile, which acts like a temporary document profile, and then gets sent to the monitor. This is often why users will notice Photoshop behaves differently from other applications. It's usually a case of the workspace coming into play. By default the workspace profile is set to sRGB. You can change this in Edit > Color Settings.
The purpose of the workspace is originally for printing workflows, as a way of keeping consistant color translations when dealing with both tagged and untagged documents. For web output workflows it can be useful for viewing everything through sRGB, which is typical of the average monitor output (not so with newer wide-gamut monitors, another source of confusion...) combined with the fact that originally most web browsers were not color managed. Hence viewing everything through sRGB is pretty close to what most monitors see and what untagged/unmanaged docs will look like.
Monitor calibration is useful only because it brings your monitor output to a "known state". In traditional workflows the monitor was always a middle-man, a preview device which was useful for getting an idea of what the printed output would look like before you print it. Since print colorspaces are often smaller than display spaces, it's feasible and useful to narrow down the monitor/display space and calibrate it to a known state, so that even if it doesn't totally match the print, you'll get used to its differences/limitations and they'll be consistent so long as the calibration is maintained.
For web output, your final output is often another user's computer monitor, which can have any form of behavior (most standard monitors are pretty close to sRGB, or use sRGB as an operating system workspace (default monitor profile). Wide gamuts behave differently, but I'm not sure if there's a particular ICC space that they closely match, or if different wide-gamuts are even that close to each other in their display color spaces.
Hope this helps!

Quantity is different from sale order and delivery

Hi,
Gurus,
Quantity is different from sale order and delivery.
I identified the Material in the sales order, the item category for this material as BOM.
I have also checked the bill of material display header overview. The Base Quantity maintained as 1000 EA3. The SUBITEM maintained in G in the unit field in bill of material display.
Accordingly i have checked the same for material master's additionl data in Units of Measure tab, it is mentioned the basic unit as 1000 EA3 and alternative unit as 600 G.
My client processed the order for 100 QTY. The QTY for the two sub item is 99.601 each in the sale order.
My client Question is why in delivery the Material Qty is coming as 99.730 and the SUB ITEM is coming as 99.330 EACH.
Note:- The material X is maintained in EA3 in Bill of material header overview. I do no how the sale unit came as G for the Material in sale order.
The other two sub item is perfectly coming as G. Because it is maintained in G in the Bill of Material Display.
Guide me GURUS.
Thanks and Regards,
ANAND

Hello Rumar
I guess you entered the text manually in the sales order. The Ship-to may not be having any text, but the Sold-to may be and it may be coming from sold to.
In transaction VOTXN, check the access sequence for the text type id and see which one takes precedence - one from customer master or from the order by checking the order of accesses.
