Email Font Selection?

Anyone know how to change the default font for email? My BES-based email is fine, but my personal email account with MSN comes in looking like basic ASCII text. I've been able to apply a signature block - but don't see any options to change the font to an html-like font. Suggestions?

Solved!

Yea - I did that, when I first went through setup. Seems ok, as long as I'm replying to someone - but on any originated email, it still looks like text. I'll try changing to something else - testing that, and seeing if it's any different. Thanks for the tip. -- Cheers.

Change email font type on ipad2

Email fonts turn huge if I choose any system font except default! OS6

I'm running OS6 on an AT&T Torch 9800 - I understand this is not a new problem but I wonder if anyone has run across some kind ot tweak to help. If I attempt to choose a different system font, everything looks ok except the fonts in the emails triple (or more) in size. Even if I shrink the system font to teeny, the emails stay huge. The only way to get my emails back to looking normal and fitting on my screen is to go to the font selection function and choose "Restore Default". If I keep the default font and just increase the size one or two notches, I'm fine, but the minute the font is different, the emails are so huge they are illegible.
I know this is not a horrible thing but it'd be fun to look at a different font for awhile and it's impossible given this little "feature". Anyone find a solution? I would love to email RIM about this but sadly they seem not to want to hear from us...

Default Email Font

I recently installed the AT &T update (about a month ago) on my Samsung Galaxy 5 cell phone. I am unable to set my email font the way I like. I can no longer find the way to set it by using the settings wheel. Any help out there? Thanks!

Sorry, I thought you meant for incoming messages. When you have a New Message window open you enter your text. When done select the text whose color you want to change then click on the Colors icon in the toolbar. A color palette window will appear from which you select the colors you want to use. I believe you need to use the RichText option for messages.

Is there a way to do a mass delete of emails without selecting each one of them individually?

Is there a way to do a mass deleye on the IPhone 4s without selecting each email individually?

No. You can tap the EDIT button, then tap a bunch of emails to select them, then tap DELETE. But you still have to tap each message.

Font selection view control in Web Gallery

LR4.1 RC2
I wanted to be able to change the font type from the UI panel using a font select popup.
This control really only seems to exist in the inbuilt edit modes (eg: id plate and watermark) so I have tried a workround which seems to work OK so far. Maybe it will help someone else out working with webengines.
Mac/OSX only at this stage - good source file in Windows may be font.inf but would require a bit of parsing or get a folder listing somehow.
Basically I read in the contents of the fonts.list file - which appears in the OSX fonts folders - and then massage the contents to get a raw list of the fonts.
This raw list is then read into a lua table and consumed by the UI popup control.
Should there be an obvious way that I haven't seen then just give me time to find a banana to eat ... anyway here goes -
Changing the font type for the cell index numbers.
Grid cells use cellIndex to give the photo number and in my webengine the css class is .itemNumber
Data Model references -   Note:   %s is important for select to work - if %q is used select will work but font won't change ( %q adds quotes to the string ).
            ["appearance.itemNumber.font"] = function() return string.format( "%s", nonCSS.itemNumberFontSize .. "px " .. nonCSS.itemNumber.font ) end,
            ["nonCSS.itemNumberFontSize"] = 60,
            ["nonCSS.itemNumber.font"] = "inherit",
            fontlistpath = LrPathUtils.child('/Library/Fonts','')    -- OSX Default fonts
Code just prior to LR UI Views -
        deffonts = templatepath .. "/pgresources/" .. 'osxdeffont.txt'      -- templatepath is the root path of the webengine - this is the tweaked OSX fonts.list file
        function readFontsFile( deffonts )
            local fileLines = io.lines( deffonts )
            ff3 = {}
            for line in io.lines(deffonts) do
Filter lines here ...
eg:   -
                line = string.sub(line, 17)   -- remove 1st 16 chrs        (/Library/Fonts//Osaka.ttf)
                line = string.gsub(line, "(.ttf)", "")
                local kline = line
                   local vline = line
                   table.insert(ff3, { title = kline ,value = vline })
            end
        end
LR UI View for font select -
            f:popup_row {
                title = "Font family :",
                bindingValue = "nonCSS.itemNumber.font",
                items = ff3,
                bindingEnabled = "appearance.itemNumber.display",   -- control should be disabled if display checkbox false
                tooltip = "Choose wisely Dave!",
Using this method is not perfect but gives a good selection of fonts - I found that to improve the success rate the default font file was copied into the webengine
resources folder and tweaked. eg: the default file gives Brush Script.ttf but I needed Brush Script MT to work, similarly with Arial Rounded Bold which needed changing
to Arial Rounded MT Bold
Basically to find the correct descriptions you could do far worse than to use the ones in the edit selections used by the ID Plate/watermarking features.
            Well there you go ...
As an aside I did try an undocumented control which on double click popped up a system font selection dialog (the whole nine yards) but couldn't get it to link to the css class so I didn't persist - not a good idea to use undocumented controls but can be fun to play with.
    f:font_picker {
        font = "Copperplate",     -- showed font as highlighted when picker opened.
        width = 80,
        value = "Arial",    -- appeared on control (title ??) - this value only changed according to the font selected after double-clicking on another hidden control (f:image_well)
        bindingValue = "nonCSS.itemNumber.font", -- linkage didn't work
Again, unless I missed it, it would be really good to have the font_picker documented and working for the web gallery views. Fonts seem to be a murky area -
probably accounts for the hassles I am getting with the watermarking feature as well.
Update :
If the font doesn't work try using the PostScript name as a value which invariably works.
eg: Handwriting - Dakota will not work but Handwriting-Dakota will.
     Arial Bold will not work but Arial-BoldMT will.

I don't think that there is any option to set the default view in the web album. If anyone has found an option to do this, then I will like to know as well.
Quite a lot of the settings in web album seams to be "hard coded" and only a few settings are available for users to control.

Can i change the behavior of the character menu so that the list begins with the current font selected and not at the beginning of the list?

Im struggling with the way the font selection tab works in the character menu.
When i scroll down the list and select minion halfway down the list, the next time i click on the font tab, the list starts back at the top of the list making me scroll down the list every time i want to look for a font.
Can anyone offer some suggestions here?
thanks
jeff

You can't do it exactly the way you want, but if you have InDesign CC or CC 2014, you can set fonts in the Character panel or Control panel Type menu to be Favorites. Click the "star" beside a font to set it as a favorite. Then at the top of the menu, click the "star" filter to show favorites in your list instead of a list of all the fonts.

I use classical Hebrew for my work, and Pages will only display English characters even with a Hebrew font selected. If I cut and paste Hebrew characters from another document, as long as the font is supported, it will appear in Pages. If I type it won't continue in Hebrew. I have tried downloading several fonts, including those from professional societies, but the only way to get Hebrew in my document is to cut and paste. Does anyone know how to fix this? I use an older MacBook running OS 10.9.1. I used to do my Hebrew work in Word, but it is no longer supported by Mac OS.

Just clarifying:
Pages '09 has bad support for Hebrew, Arabic etc but will accept pasted text.
Pages 5 has much better support but with bugs.
If you have columns they are in the wrong order ie Text starts in the left column and ends in the right column.
If you type English into Hebrew text it tends to fall in the wrong position eg instead of to the left of Hebrew punctuation it goes to the right.
As Tom recommends the only real solution on the Mac is Mellel.

btw Tell Apple, they are amazingly slow to fix this running sore which has been broken since RtoL was supposedly introduced in OSX 10.2.3 over a decade ago.

Mail Services New email with selection doesn't work, leads to Force Quit

I've posted this before, but got no replies so I'm trying again since it's driving me crazy. It was a problem under Mavericks and still exists under Yosemite's Mail.
When I select text and then go to the Services menu and pick "New email with selection," much of the time a totally empty new email message window opens , won't let me type in it at all, nor will it close or send. It just sits there until I Force Quit Mail.
HELP PLEASE!!!

Standard Apple Mail. I'm running Yosemite 10.10.1, and I'm amazed to see that About Mail says it's Mail Version 8.1 (1993), copyright 1995-2014 Apple Inc.
Interesting thought, do you think that it doesn't like to work with itself? Actually, I'm fairly sure I've had the problem inside of other apps but I should document that. I'll keep notes to see where this happens.

I never send anything from there but I have the same email in yahoo but delete them and they still show up in apple mail from day one how do I get rid of these once and for all.Please help
<Edited by Host>

I am soooooooooooo confused now. Ok, if you are having problems with Yahoo Mail and Gmail but you do not use Apple's Mail you need to do the following:
1 - Post in Yahoo's Mail forums and/or contact their tech support.
2 - Post in Gmails forums and/or contact their tech support.
Neither of the above are Apple's products.

Add to Favorites Email Font Mystery

I deleted a bunch of font 'favorites' -- by dragging them off the list in the email fonts screen -- but although their names are gone there is a Blank Space where they use to be; if I click on that blank space the font (the font I thought I deleted) appears in the Preview window.
The (minor) problem is that if I now add a new Favorite font it appears at the bottom of this invisible list of previously deleted fonts, requiring me to scroll down to access them.
If this sounds weird, I agree.

I solved this the Old Fashion Way: I deleted all fonts in my Favorites and started from scratch.

How to change the incoming email font

Hi,
is there anybody able to tell me how to change the incoming email font?
I have BB bold 9900. I was able to do it with my previous curve, but not with this one.
Thanks

Hi muttley and welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums!
There is no option to change the incoming mail font. You can change the entire system font by going to Options>Display>Screen Display.
Thanks.

Font selection by typing font name into from down field

I have noticed this since upgrading to Photoshop CC 2014:
When I want to select a font by typing its name's first few characters into the drop down field, all intuitiveness goes out of the window. The very first character I type gets dropped and rather than bringing me closer to the typeface I'm after, it starts presenting all fonts starting with the 2nd character I've typed. I.e. trying to get to the "Titillium" font selection, I start to type "Titil..." and it gives me the "i" listings in my large number of fonts. This is happening on all my installations of Photoshop CC 2014 (3 different Windows computers and setups).
Is this a bug or another example of second-guessing what might be helpful when it actually isn't? Not getting the logic of why I have to type "AArial" if I want to get to the "Arial" font in the selection box.
I know I can simply scroll down in the list of fonts to get to the one I want to use, but in the land of shortcuts, surely scrolling should only ever be the 2nd best choice.
Looking forward to some insight.
