Dynamic Font

Hi,
Is there any way to read web pages written in dynamic font? Safari does not support it. Neither does Netscape anything above 4.X or Firefox. These are Indian and Bangladesh newspapers. To help you better understand my issue, you may visit following links:
www.anandabazar.com (Indian Bengali Newspaper)
www.prothom-alo.com (Bangladesh Bengali Newspaper).
Thanks!

Is there any way to read web pages written in dynamic
font?
No, Mac browsers can't use them as far as I know. However, sometimes such sites will let you download the non-standard encoding font they are using and you can install it and read the pages that way. I think the Opera browser works better than others in doing this.

See if you can download the font from the site.
www.prothom-alo.com (Bangladesh Bengali Newspaper).
This looks like it might be a Unicoded site. You can try downloading a Bengali Unicode font, such as found here:

However these may not display very correctly, as they are designed for Windows.

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.

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:
http://www.wazu.jp/gallery/Fonts_Bengali.html

How to install dynamic fonts during loading the website?

During loading the website, some of theTamil fonts in official website are not displayed in the browser. Dynamic fonts are not loaded and displayed. So I need the help to enable dynamic font installation.

The Padma extension should allow you to view websites that make use of proprietary font formats.

AS3 dynamic font embedding bug

Hi all,
Is there a known bug for the following case?
Case:
A project I'm working on doesn't seem to handle font embedding correctly when the font is added dynamically using actionscript. When I test my movie it does not display the embedded font at all. Curious about this is, that when I create an empty project using the same code and then embed the font and test the movie it displays the font without any problem.
Sometimes a reboot of the machine I'm working on will suffice to make the embedding work again, but sometimes is not all the time. So I was wondering if there was a memory related bug that causes this behavior. If so, is there any sight on a solution for this bug? It's more than annoying to reboot eight times a day, just to test a movie.
How did I embed the font:
1. Create a "New Font" in the Library, set the properties and give it a classname.
2. Using actionscript to embed the font in a dynamically generated TextField.
package{
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.display.text.Font;
import flash.display.text.TextFormat;
import flash.display.text.TextField;
public class MyClass extends MovieClip{
var myFont:Font;
var myTextFormat:TextFormat;
var myTextField:TextField;
public function MyClass():void{
myFont = new Font1();
myTextFormat = new TextFormat();
myTextFormat.font = myFont.fontName;
myTextField = new TextField();
myTextField.defaultTextFormat = myTextFormat;
myTextField.embedFonts = true;
myTextField.text = "Lorem Ipsum...";
addChild(myTextField);
Cheers!
Do

I don't have Flash IDE on this machine so I cannot say for sure but try to register font:
public function MyClass():void {
     Font.registerFont(Font1);
     myFont = new Font1();
     // the rest...

Urxvt dynamic font switching nuances

By changing the font size dynamically (using the printf...007 method mentioned in urxvt(7)), some font spacing issues seem to be introduced:
In the doctored screenshot, lines one to four are urxvt open with DejaVu Sans Mono 9. In lines five to eight, I switch to size=11. Notice how the font spacing and size of the ls output is wrong. The remaining lines are of a new urxvt instance with the expected results.
I've tried setting the font size in .Xdefaults and reloading with xrdb load... to no avail.
Any thoughts?

Which package are you using for urxvt? rxvt-unicode from [extra]?

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!

Dynamic font loading form diffent domain The value specified for argument font is invalid

Hi
I am trying to dyanmiclly load domain from external swf
First I Embed the font in an SWF called "FontsSWFList.swf"
[Embed(source='Assets/fonts/ARIAL.TTF' , fontFamily='Arial Font' , embedAsCFF="true")]
public static var ArialFont:Class;
and then I load the SWF in another "main.swf"
and then get the font Class
like this:
loader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,OnFinishedLoadingSWF);
loader.load('http://www.natansites.com/FontsSWFList.swf' );
public function OnFinishedLoadingSWF(event:Event):void{
var FontLibrary1:Class = this.loader.content.loaderInfo.applicationDomain.getDefinition("FontsSWFList_ArialFont") as Class;
Font.registerFont(FontLibrary1);
If the FontsSWFList.swf is found on the same domain as main.swf (using reletive path) then everything is OK. But when they are on diffrent domains
I get an error:
"The value specified for argument font is invalid"
There is some disscussion about that here:
http://www.actionscript.org/forums/showthread.php3?t=182499
But the solotion seems too complicated and it didn't work for me in FLEX 4 and FTE
Please help me

Thanks
I got now
Error #2044: Unhandled SecurityErrorEvent:. text=Error #2048: Security sandbox violation: http://www.*****.com/test/****.swf cannot load data from http://www.natansites.com/FontsSWFList.swf.

Dynamic font change

Hi,
I have CLOB column, which is populated in long text box in oracle forms.
I want to format half of the data in clob to bold and another half of data as normal. for eg.
This is staring of the clob data ( This shuld be in bold)
and this is rest of the clob data (This data data should be in normal) in the same record.
How to achive this
Thanks in advance.

If you are talking about one field in a record, I don't think Form Builder will allow part of a text field in normal font and part of it in bold.
May be your could split the field in two and set one as normal and the other as bold... but this would all depend on your data which may not permit you doing this.

Dynamic Font Embedding

My goal is to let the user of my flex/air application choose one of their system fonts from a drop down and then format text on the screen using that font. The dropdown is built but I can't get it to change the font of the textbox and the font must be embedded in order for the rotate method to work properly on the textbox. I get the following errors:
"unable to resolve myvarrocks for transcoding"
"Unable to transcode myvarrocks"
Here is the code I was attempting to run.
[Embed(source=myvarrocks,fontName="EmbedMyFont",mimeType="application/x-font")]
Is there any way to do what I am attempting? Thanks!
varEmbedMyFont:Class;
varEmbedMyFont:Class;
Is there any way to do what I am attempting? Thanks!

In FP10, you can get reasonable rendering of rotated device fonts.

Loading font libraries dynamically; having some problems.

I am using SWF font library classes (done with FlashDevelop) to be able to have dynamically embedded fonts in an application. All text/graphic components are drawing styles from a plain (non-swf) CSS file, which supplies all the text/label components with a generic font name, to which the dynamic font is imported.
Example: User is using Arial.
App imports ArialFont.swf which has embedded:
- Arial Regular
- Arial Bold
- Arial Regular with embedAsCFF=false
and maps them to an internal generic font name:
- MyFont (regular)
- MyFont (bold)
- MyFontCFF (embedAsCFF=false)
This is working perfectly, for the dynamically generated components.
However, the s:Label components that are laid out with MXML in the application are loading before the fonts are properly loaded and embedded, and they are displaying with Times New Roman (system default), even though the embedded fonts are now loaded and ready.
Is there a way for me to force these static s:Label components to update their view to include the newly embedded fonts?
Thanks,
-J

See the embedded font post on my blog to make sure everything is set up correctly. However, you might just need a call to the undocumented styleManager[“styleDeclarationsChanged”]();

Need help in finding a font for a logo

I was looking for help in finding a font for my logo. I'm not a designer at all, so I'm calling on all the fine designers and folks on the Adobe site to help me out. All replies are, of course, appreciated and any suggestions/comments/ideas will be welcome.
I'm designing a logo for my film company. I wanted to keep it simple but not boring either. I put together the first draft of the logo using Photoshop CS3 and used Trajan Pro for the film company words (Panthera Films) and used Futura for the slogan ("Inspiration through Imagination"). While I don't mind the fonts, it's simple but, alas, too boring. I love the panther image but need a dynamic font for "Panthera Films" and a complimenting font for the slogan.
Can anyone recommend a good combination of fonts to replace the Trajan Pro and Futura? As well, I want to give the logo a nice presence without it being too loud, bold or jumping off the page. As well, should the font for "Films" be the same as "Panthera" or can they be different?
The image I attached is something I was thinking to use as a banner on a website.
Any help would be appreciated too with this
TIA,
Dale

Dale,
As I said, I like it too.
You may consider making it a bit heavier, maybe bold, for readability at small sizes.
It is hard to recommend a specific font because it should represent your company and what it stands for. Have you tried typing the name in a word processing application (Worst or something better) and then running through all the font you have? If not, that might give you a few new thoughts about the overall kind of font you feel is the right one. And then it is much easier to recommend something.

Dynamic FROM clause

Hi, I am needing to use a dynamic "FROM (insert table name here)" as well. From reading several posts, it seems like I need to do this using dynamic SQL. I can pass the name of the table into the stored procedure, but I am getting confused as to how to turn the SELECT statement part of this function into dynamic SQL since the SELECT statement is already inside a cursor itself. Thank you -

Font looks weird on mac

Hi,
I'm working on a pc. I'm using a dynamic font which I've
embedded into my .swf file and the file looks exactly the same on
my sister's, and my computer at work - both pc's - as it does on my
pc. But on my cousins computer - a mac- the font looks the same
except one character, the "W", always looks kinda filled in, making
it look a little different from the rest. All words are in caps, so
I've only embedded caps. How do I stop this?
Can anyone help?

well you could 'break apart' the text, unless it is dynamic
text you are changing, this in effect changes the text into vector
art. If the font is embedded it should display the same even on a
MAC, it might have something to do with it not being a fixed with
font or the fact that you have the text box placed at a non-integer
point, say x: 102.3 y: 72.1 This might cause the Mac to skew the
letter, make sure the text box is 102,72. Not sure why flash needs
to have points of a pixel anyway!
