Dynamic Font properties.

Hello everyone:
I have a project, in which the information for the client is
inserted dynamically by the end user. Meaning, my customer pays us
to create a splash screen in Director. This splash screen has blank
text fields. When my client types information in a specific line of
a notepad.txt the blank text fields get populated with the required
info. The info on the .txt file are things like names, telephone
#'s, emails, etc. Now my client wants to be able to change the font
properties dynamically also. Is there anywhere that I can get a
list of font properties for Director. So far I have some, like :
member("info").font= "arial"
member("info").forecolor=5
Also, with the forecolor, is there anywhere with a list of
what the =number means? I mean, numbers are not very colorful, what
if the customer wants blue, of green, or red.
Thank you!

  • Font Properties- Hypertext/Dynamic Text Fields

    Is there any way to create font properties of text when using
    hyptertext code in dynamic text fields?

    you can create textformat objects and apply them to
    textfields and you can use css with html-enabled textfields.

  • Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro - editing font properties in a text box

    When I insert a text box on an existing PDF, initially Acrobat usually allows me to edit the font properties.  Sometimes it does not.  Once I type in the text box, the font properties toolbar becomes locked (i.e., "grayed out") so I can't change font type, size, color justification and other font properties.  If I save the file, close it and then re-open I can edit then the font, at least for a while.  If I have other PDF files open too I usually have to close those other windows.  After some time the font properties again become locked.
    Obviously it is incredibly inconvenient to have to close a program and all open files then re-open those files just to change something like the color of a font.  I called Adobe tech support and they told me the fix was to buy Acrobat X.  I don't want to spend more money, I just want the product I already paid for to work properly.
    Is there a way for this bug in the software to be corrected?

    ** SOLVED FOR ME **
    Acrobat 9.0 and 9.1 Standard
    No v9 properties toolbar access except in last document opened
    I don't know if this applies to you but I had a similar problem with documents on our network.
    It turns out the documents were being saved as PDF/A or PDF/X format.
    I had the users open up Adobe.  Go to Edit>Preferences      Then go to the Documents section and find the "Open in PDF/A" section.  I had them select "Never"  and then the toolbars were no longer greyed out.

  • PDF created using Java iText package - Text not editable and not displaying font properties on Acrobat

    Hi,
    I have an issue in editing the text and viewing the font properties of a text region on a PDF created using Java iText package.
    I use Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro Extended and the option Tools -> Advanced Editing -> TouchUp Text Tool.
    The strange behaviour is that, I have 2 PDFs created out of the same base PDF and text added via Java iText package with the same Text, Font and other properties.
    One of the PDF has the text region editable on Acrobat but the other one has the text region which is not editable.
    But both the PDFs are editable via Adobe Illustrator.
    I have attached both the PDFs for your reference
    PDF_Editable.pdf - Editable on Acrobat
    PDF_Not Editable.pdf - Not Editable on Acrobat
    Any help or insight to find out the difference/issue with the PDF which is not editable via Acrobat would be appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.

    You don't have direct control of the leading of a multiline text field. A common approach is to control the background color of the field with JavaScript since the lines are not really needed when the field is used in Reader/Acrobat. They may be useful when using the form by hand. For more information, see the posts by Max in this topic: http://acrobatusers.com/forum/forms-acrobat/how-do-i-use-multi-lined-text-fields-over-prin ted-line-area-existing-form

  • Dynamic Fonts in JSP With applet

    Hi Buddies
    My Multilingual web application uses a dynamic font , the technology provided by TrueDoc.com. Now the problem is the webpage works properly by making use of the dynamic fonts and I get stuck to life when I realised that my applet should also display using the dynamic font.
    The dynamic font is a file with an extension of .pfr usually placed in the server and all the webpages will be bound to the server to make use of the .pfr font, there by making all the clients to view the sam font
    irrespective of the fonts installed in the client machine.
    How do i get going

    The applet is run on the client machine, so you have to include the .pfr with the applet code. Best bet would be to use a JAR for the Applet and package the .pfr inside there.

  • Font.properties help needed

    I have a USA client with several Reports that use fonts “OCR A Extended” and “Wingdings 3”. The OCR A Extended font is being used for a scanline by OCR scanners to call up invoices. They MUST use that font or the scanners don’t work. They are also using specific angled arrows from the Wingdings 3 font set. I can’t get either one to work in the Reports.
    I have mapped both OCR A Extended and Wingdings 3 to dialoginput in the registry.dat file.
    Getting the correct values into the font.properties file is the part that I’m having problems with. I’m trying to do this by following other examples I’ve seen, but I’m not hitting the correct combination.
    I have added:
    dialoginput.3=OCR A Extended,ANSI_CHARSET
    dialoginput.4=Wingdings 3,DEFAULT_CHARSET
    1) Do I need to add a “NEED_COVERTED” to either one of those lines? I’m guessing no because this is plain Windows US/English, nothing foreign.
    2) Do I have the proper _CHARSET for both of those lines?
    I have also added:
    filename.Wingdings_3=WINGDNG3.TTF
    filename.OCR_A_Extended=OCRAEXT.TTF
    3) Do I need to do that or should I take it out?
    From what I’ve read, if I use a NEED_COVERTED then I also need a:
    fontcharset.dialoginput.3=…..
    fontcharset.dialoginput.4=…..
    But I have NOOO clue what needs to follow the “=” sign.
    It is mission critical that I get both of these working, especially the OCR A Extended font. I thank you in advance!

  • Font.properties to set custom in-house fonts

    Hi all,
    Currently attempting to get Forms Server to display a custom fonts called TH Sans Serif which is MS Sans Serif modified for our special needs. We need to show a whole array of fonts which caters for Rumanian, Hungarian, Polish, Slovak, Western European fonts amongst others. Problem is that the font.properties file (loaded with Jinitiator to be found under %Jinitiator_Home%\lib) maps 4 fonts (Monospaced, SansSerif, Serif, Dialog) that are used in the registry.dat file. Apparently reading from newsgroups it is possible to set one of these four mappings to your own custom font. Haven't unfortunately found a success case yet. Can anyone help.

  • Dynamically creating properties

    Hi,
    I'm migrating my application from NW 7.0 to NW 7.11 CE.
    Previously I dynamically created properties from my application and they were automatically created as onlinemodifiable = true.
    When I migrated my project the properties were no longer created as modifiable.
    Can anybody point me to documentation or suggest a way to solve this issue?
    Here's my code creating the dynamic property:
              Configuration cfg = null;
              try {
                   cfg =
                        _cfgHandler.openSubConfiguration(
                             "application.global.properties",
                             ConfigurationHandler.WRITE_ACCESS);
              } catch (NameNotFoundException e) {
                   e.printStackTrace();
              } catch (ConfigurationLockedException e) {
                   e.printStackTrace();
              } catch (ConfigurationException e) {
                   e.printStackTrace();
              // get the property sheet
              PropertySheet ps = cfg.getPropertySheetInterface();
              // Create the property
              ps.createSecurePropertyEntry(propertyName, "", "");
              // commit the changes
              _cfgHandler.commit();
              cfg.close();
    Best Regards,
    Ran

  • Dynamic Fonts loading in CS4 vs CS3. What has changed?!

    Hi there,
    I've had BIG troubles loading dynamic fonts in CS4. Well I had a whole library written in AS3 for CS3 which works just fine. But the whole thing doesn't work anymore in CS4. The textfields are empty although the fonts are loaded and registered via Font.registerFont. So the loading process actually worked. But the text just doesn't appear anymore.
    In CS3 it works, in CS4 id doesn't work, with exactly the same FLA and AS files.
    The Font files were exported with CS3. Maybe there's the problem? There is another font-file I had to export with flex (due to the character limitations in the flash IDE), that actually does work(!)
    So what has changed between CS3 and CS4? There must be some reason why things don't work anymore like they did before.
    If someone is interested in the source... it's quite a lot just to get a font loaded.

    just out of curiosity -- did you update all of the applications?

  • Dynamic Fonts in Safari

    Is there any way I can make safari work to display dynamic fonts? there are few regional newspaper websites that use such fonts and safari is not displaying the contents of those websites properly....for example:
    www.anandabazar.com
    Any help on this would be very much appreciated...
    Regards,
    Rudra

    How would I confirm what font the website
    is using?
    I gave you the name. I found it by doing View > Page Source.
    Where do I download the font from?
    I did a search but could not find it anywhere for download. You could email the site and ask them. It might be that some other non-Unicode Bengali font would work. Sorry I don't have time right now to download them a try them out.
    I suspect this particular site may be a hopeless case.
    Dynamic fonts are an old, essentially Windows-only technology used mainly by some Asian sites which do not have the knowledge or technology to shift to Unicode, where everyone with any kind of computer can easily download the fonts being used, for example from:

  • Font.properties

    Is the jre using font.properties at all when displaying characters in the GUI? I removed all font.properties* files from my jre/lib directory and I am still able to display English characters and double-byte Korean characters. Certain fonts are not working for the Korean, but this all seems independent of the font.properties files. I'm using jdk 1.3.1_06.
    Bleu

    I have i18n.jar in my classpath and LocaleElements_ko.class is in it. The only font that works for me in Korean is Dialog with BOLD style. What relationship does font.properties have to i18n.jar? I guess the jre is getting the appropriate Font based on the Locale out of the i18n.jar? What do i need to do to get additional fonts (really I just want Dialog with PLAIN style) to work in Korean?
    thanks,
