Embeding fonts in application

How can i create a font from a .ttf file? Java does it when invoking methods GraphicsEnvironment.getAllFonts() or GraphicsEnvironment.getAvailableFontFamilyNames(), but only installed fonts are included. I did not find a font constructing method using file. How to derive font from uninstalled .ttf file? For example if you want to embed a font in your application (just to be sure that font will be there)?

I mean what to do when i want to use a particular font available on my system but not sure it is installed on other computer. If i have installed a font named "ParkAvenue" it would be in the list of strings returned from
GraphicsEnvironment.getLocalGraphicsEnvironment().getAvailableFontFamilyNames() and i can write something like that: Font font=new Font("ParkAvenue", Font.PLAIN, 12); and use it in my application without any problem. But if that font is not available on your computer there will be a run-time error when you try to start my application. So, how can i embed a font in an application?

    I am on a Windows 7 OS attempting to reduce pdf size with my Adobe Acrobat Standard XI & Pro.  The application keeps timing out and  at the Subsetting embedded fonts portion and the application gives "Adobe Acrobat has stopped working" and then closes.  The document is 275 pages.  Is there something I can do to stop this?

    Hi Ricci,
    Since when are you facing this issue? Did you tried system restore to a date before this problem occured.
    Does acrobat stop working when you open this specific pdf file or with any pdf file that you open?

  • Unable to load embedded fonts in TlF / FlowLeafElement

    dears,
    I use TextFlowUtil.importFromString and FlowLeafElement to make each some text have its own style, every some words have diffirent color, fontFamily, fontSize....etc
    that is done here in the text attribute in this xml tag, and TextFlowUtil.importFromString and FlowLeafElement make taht perfect:
    <TextArea text="&lt;div direction=&quot;rtl&quot;&gt;&#xD;&#xA;  &lt;p textAlign=&quot;right&quot;&gt;&#xD;&#xA;    &lt;span fontFamily=&quot;ttf&quot; fontSize=&quot;16&quot; color=&quot;#FFE000E0&quot; &gt;Welcome to Android Training.

    The problem is that i need to embed fonts, by this fontFamily=&quot;Arial&quot; you can set font name which you want, but if i set font name which is embedded it won't work, like : fontFamily=&quot;ttf&quot;
    the embedded code is :
    [Embed(source='/Resources/majallab.ttf',fontName='ttf',mimeType='application/x-font',embed AsCFF='true')]
                                            var font1:Class; //This is only used to compile the code
    I use Flex SDK 4.5,
    what can i do ?
    Thank you in advance,
    amt

    To use embedded fonts in a Flex component, the fontFamily for the component needs to be set to an embedded font that is in the same SWF as the other embedded fonts in the TextFlow.  See my blog for more details

    Hi Jin-Huang
              But when I use Simple ASProject with SDK 4.1 then it works fine but when I create Flex project then it give error
    with SWFContext.
    I think it's a issue of swfcontext or AS comunication with Spark components.
    Please let me know if any solution.
    Thanks

  • How can I create a PDF with embedded fonts (not a subset of the font) from Excel?

    I need to create PDF's from Excel spreadsheets. The PDF needs to have embedded fonts but every time I create one it only has a subset of the embedded font.  I have tried setting preferences in the Acrobat add in (unchecked the "Subset Embedded Fonts" option and also tried with the Subset Embedded Fonts checked but the percentage set to only 1% in an attempt to force full font to be embedded.)
    I also tried opening the resulting PDF with Acrobat Pro XI but could not figure out how to add the font in.
    A method to accomplish the results from either tool would be great.

    Anna;
    Unless you can add those fonts to your system via the Font book and then substitute them in iPhoto, you'll have to either user the available fonts or create your own pages, 8.5 x 11, in an image editor like Photoshop Elements and use them on pages that are one photo per page. Other's have done that with some success.
    If you has PS or PSE create an 8.5 x 11" canvas at 300 dpi. Then you can add your photos, add text (if PS can use the text), and create your own layout.
    Do you Twango?
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • Spark DataGrid Embedded Font Quandary

    01.  In everything that follows, I am talking about the latest [21328] version of the SDK, not that I believe that my problems have anything to do with that release, just so anyone interested and willing to help will know the version.
    02.  My application happens to be rooted in AIR's WindowedApplication, but again, I do not think that has any impact on my problems; I believe the same results would obtain for a Flex Application.
    03.  I have a custom renderer for the Spark DataGrid which extends DefaultGridItemRenderer.  It works fine. Its primary job is to change the font characteristics of each row in the list as a visual clue to the user as to the specific nature of the content that is accessible.  Some entries are just in the Regular font, some in Bold, some in Italic, and some in Bold-Italic.
    04.  I have, for most of the project, embedded the necessary fonts like this:
        [Embed (source="C:/Windows/Fonts/ArnoPro-Caption.otf", fontName="ArnoPro_BI_4",
            fontStyle="italic",
            fontWeight="bold",
            mimeType="application/x-font",
            embedAsCFF="true",
            unicodeRange="U+0021-U+00ff, U+20ac-U+20ac")]
        private const ArnoPro_BI_4:Class;
    As I said, that all works just as advertized.  But, that method of embedding carries the somewhat painful burden of slower compilations, so for the last 24 hours I have unseccessfully been trying to replace that with:
    [Embed (source = "../resources/assets/ArnoPro_BI_4.swf", symbol="ArnoPro_BI_4")]
    private const ArnoPro_BI_4:Class;
    where the swf file was produced via fontswf, using this incantation:
    fontswf -4 -u U+0021-U+00ff,U+20ac-U+20ac -b -i -a ArnoPro_BI_4 -o ArnoPro_BI_4.swf C:/Windows/Fonts/ArnoPro-Caption.otf
    06.  By all that is holy, the two different means of embedding the font ought to yield the same result, but they do not.  I have debugging code inserted to print out the list of fonts upon initiation of the application, and they are identical.  Both means of embedding do succeed in getting the embedded fonts into the .swf, but the attempt to use the fonts fails using the second approach.
    There is, of course, no change being made to the code in the item renderer which merely uses setStyle() to effect the row-by-row result.  The result in the second case is that the only style of the embedded font that renders is 'regular'.
    07.  I have used the 'keep-generated' facility to look at the code being generated by the mxmlc compiler and can see that different code is emitted, but it does not help me find a fix to the problem.  Both forms of the meta-tag do something; both methods of embedding seem to correctly register themselves with the FontManager, but only the method of embedding which actually performs the transcoding during compilation seems to result in a set of registered fronts which can be found and correctly used to render output based on the runtime setting of the font style.

    Thank for the reply
    I hoped that my posting indicated how the fonts in the the .swf file were constructed.  The "-4", argument to the command-line tool, fontswf, as far as I can tell, is the precise analog to the "embedAsCFF" argument in the [Embed] syntax.  That is what makes it so perplexing.  Given all the external documentation that is available for each tool/methodology, I would have thought that the resultant bytecodes, classes, flags, whatever, would have been identical.  The only difference would be the timing of when the transcoding took place.
    Since it is clearly more efficient to only transcode whatever set of fonts an application needs once, not once per build/test turn-around, I would really like to make the fontswf workflow work.  For those of us outside the beneficial environment of your licensed tools, the kindly-provided alternative to the facilities built into Flash Professional and/or Flash Builder give us the greatest degree of productivity.
    Whoever has access to the source code for Font [I can only see the uninteresting FontAsset in the SDK] can probably determine what difference might result from mxmlc working with this intermediate output, when inline transcoding is 'tagged':
    package
    import mx.core.FontAsset;
    [ExcludeClass]
    [Embed(fontName="ArnoPro_IT_4", _resolvedSource="C:/WINDOWS/Fonts/ArnoPro-ItalicCaption.otf", fontStyle="italic", _line="1189", _pathsep="true", embedAsCFF="true", fontWeight="normal", unicodeRange="U+0021-U+00ff, U+20ac-U+20ac", source="C:/Windows/Fonts/ArnoPro-ItalicCaption.otf", _column="2", exportSymbol="AIRZoom_ArnoPro_IT_4", _file="G:/FP/AIRZoom/src/AIRZoom_AS.as", mimeType="application/x-font")]
    public class AIRZoom_ArnoPro_IT_4 extends mx.core.FontAsset
        public function AIRZoom_ArnoPro_IT_4()
            super();
    versus this, when swf extraction is 'tagged':
    package
    import mx.core.FontAsset;
    [ExcludeClass]
    [Embed(fontName="ArnoPro_IT_4", _resolvedSource="C:/WINDOWS/Fonts/ArnoPro-ItalicCaption.otf", fontStyle="italic", _line="1191", _pathsep="true", embedAsCFF="true", fontWeight="normal", unicodeRange="U+0021-U+00ff, U+20ac-U+20ac", source="C:/Windows/Fonts/ArnoPro-ItalicCaption.otf", _column="2", exportSymbol="AIRZoom_ArnoPro_IT_4", _file="G:/FP/AIRZoom/src/AIRZoom_AS.as", mimeType="application/x-font")]
    public class AIRZoom_ArnoPro_IT_4 extends mx.core.FontAsset
        public function AIRZoom_ArnoPro_IT_4()
            super();
    The only difference is that value for '_line' which probably only indicates that one of the two processes has a comment or empty line somewhere.

  • Save as PDF Files too large, Remove Embedded Fonts/Compress Fonts

    When I create PDF's using "Save as PDF" in Mac OS X, the file sizes are much larger than is acceptable for my application. For example, a recent PDF I created ended up at 1.7 MB and I need it to be around 150 kB.
    When I open the file in Acrobat Pro 6.0 and audit the file, I see that 94% of the file size is taken up by embedded fonts. I can then Optimize PDF with Acrobat Pro and remove the embedded fonts. The file size drops to around 145 kB.
    Is there any way to NOT embed fonts when creating PDF's with Mac OS X? Also, is there any way to compress with Mac OS X in a manner similar to Acrobat Pro?

    Hi LD,
    I don't think so that this is possible.
    I have the same problem to ... even when I open a existing PDF file that I downloaded from the net. It was 150 Kb an after I work in it to make same changes I save it an turns up to be 2 to 3 Mb or sometimes even more ...
    I open de PDF than in Acrobat pro and remove everything I don't want ... I select in Acrobat Pro an select 'optimise PDF'

  • Missing characters in CFF embedded fonts

    Our application loads embedded fonts on the fly. I'm in the process of converting our text handling to FTE and switching over to CFF fonts, but I've noticed that for a couple of fonts, there are characters that are damaged, or missing entirely. The same text renders correctly when the font is installed as a system font, and also when it's embedded in the non-CFF format, so CFF embedding is choking on something, but I have no idea what. Nor do I see a lot of knobs that I can twist to control the CFF output.
    For example, Budmo Jiggler (http://www.dafont.com/budmo-jiggler.font). When embedded as CFF, the letter "B" isn't rendering correctly:
    This occurs in both the 10.3 and 11.3 players.
    My embedding code is autogenerated for all fonts and looks like this:
    // GENERATED FILE - DO NOT EDIT
    package {
         import flash.display.Sprite;
         import flash.text.Font;
         [SWF(width="800", height="600", backgroundColor="#FFFFFF", frameRate="30")]
         public class BUDMO extends Sprite {
              [Embed(source='/Users/bsharon/src/Bueller/as/fonts/ttf/Budmo Jiggle/BUDMO.ttf',
                     mimeType="application/x-font",
                     fontName='embedded_BUDMO',
                     unicodeRange='U+0000-U+00FF',
                     embedAsCFF='true',
                     fontWeight='normal',
                     fontStyle='normal')]
              public static var embedded_BUDMO:Class;
              [Embed(source='/Users/bsharon/src/Bueller/as/fonts/ttf/Budmo Jiggle/BUDMOB.ttf',
                     mimeType="application/x-font",
                     fontName='embedded_BUDMO',
                     unicodeRange='U+0000-U+00FF',
                     embedAsCFF='true',
                     fontWeight='bold',
                     fontStyle='normal')]
              public static var embedded_BUDMO_Bold:Class;
                trace("Registering font embedded_BUDMO");
                Font.registerFont(embedded_BUDMO);
                trace("Registering font embedded_BUDMO_Bold");
                Font.registerFont(embedded_BUDMO_Bold);
    The code is compiled like so: mxmlc --static-link-runtime-shared-libraries -output <swf_file> <as3_file>. There are no warnings.
    So...what do I try next?

    I will close my own question by saying that if I convert the TTF files to OpenType, the problem goes away. I would have preferred not to bang my head on this particular wall, but at least I have a workaround now.

  • Module not unloading if embedded font was ever used

    So, I have a test app that uses modules with the font embeded. Using ModuleManager I am able to load up the module. Once I call   IModuleInfo.factory.create(), I am then able to setStyle("fontFamily", "BPDiet") and the font does show up. The issue I am now having is that once I have used a font from a module, even if my TextArea is no longer using it (I even tried removing the textArea, and replacing it with a new one), the module will not unload.
    I read through this "What We Know About Unloading Modules" and I think I am not leaving any references around.They are loaded using the load() defaults. There is no code (that is used) in the module. The modules are not being added to the display, so they never receive focus.
    Note that I am unable to run the profiler as suggested in the article as I don't have the premium Flash Builder 4. <grrr>
    Note that the first module that is loaded, I can never get to unload, even if I never used the font embedded in it, but all subsequent modules will unload, if I do not use the embedded font. I can live with the first one being pinned as long as I can unload the others that are not in use.
    Here is the code from one of my modules:
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

                    var SampleTextArea:TextArea = new TextArea();
                    SampleTextArea.text = "Test BPDiet please!";

    A couple things to note; I am calling System.rc() in the unloadCurrentFont() method just to speed up seeing the SWF unload in the debug console. The DoNonImportantWork() is there to just cause some events to happen and to create some objects that will need to be GC'ed. It also let me know that the fonts are not getting registered in Font.
    I'm going to have 30 fonts (and more, that designer is busy) that I will need to be able to dynamically load, but right now, loading them with CSS style modules blows up after about 15 because style modules register the font so I cannot unload the CSS swf.

    To help eliminate the question of whether the TextArea is being held by something else, I have removed it from the MXML, and now programatically create it. That did not help.
    So, I got the trial version of Flash Builder 4 installed on another machine in the office so that I can use the profiler. (The profiler is pretty cool by the way).
    After a lot of profiing, I found four paths to the module's FlexModuleFactory.
    Two of those paths go to EmbeddedFontRegistry, whose data is static. I could get into it and remove font entry and free up the moduleFactory from there. This is a hack, that entry in/on EmbeddedFontRegistry.font should have been cleaned up by the code removing the fontFamily from the TextArea. (Note that EmbeddedFontRegistry is marked [ExcludeClass], which I assume means I should not really be messing with it.
    The other two I cannot get to as they are anonymous. They also don't appear to be referenced, as the Object References shows them both as GC root objects. Here is a screen shot:
    I did a search through the sdk code and 'fbs' only shows up as a parameter on the init function of various Marshal support classes, but is not used in the init()
    Anyway, these references to the FlexModuleFactory do not get held if I do not use the embeded font in the module.

  • Fully embedding fonts in PDF

    Hi,
    I had a piece of information but I can't seem to find it anymore so I have to ask ...
    This is about understanding limitations of fully embedding fonts in a PDF (from Indesign Server). Actually it's about one limitation in particular. I know fonts with licensing issues or fonts that are marked "embedded not allowed" will not be embedded. Also, there is a threshold that I need to set.
    So, I recall reading somewhere that Indesign will not fully embed "standard" fonts. Is that correct and what is this standard fonts category?
    Oh, reading through some posts, I noticed lots of people and experts ask why does one need fully embedded fonts. That's a good question and I don't know the root reason but in my case it seems that some regulatory agencies (in the life sciences/pharma domain) require PDFs with fully embedded fonts.
    Many thanks
    Cristian

    On behalf of Adobe:
    (1)     For both InDesign “PDF export” (including InDesign Server) and Illustrator “save as PDF” functions, most but not all of the .joboptions file font embedding options are totally and utterly ignored. The options that are ignored are the Embed all fonts, Embed OpenType fonts, Always embed, and Never embed. Those options are observed by Distiller and the PDFMaker components of Acrobat.
    (2)     These applications will attempt to embed all fonts referenced by the document, regardless of the settings of the .joboptions file. The only reason why a font would not be embedded in a PDF file would be if (a) the font was unavailable (i.e., not installed on the system) or (b) the font's embedding permissions do not permit embedding for at least preview and print privileges. Thus, if you use the so-called Standard .joboptions (strongly not recommended for any graphic arts purposes), even the base 14 fonts (four faces each of Helvetica, Times, and Courier along with Symbol and ITC Zapf Dingbats will be embedded if your document references them.
    (3)     The subset threshold value of 0 (zero) may effectively cause all the glyphs of a font to be embedded in some, but not all cases. This will work for many if not most Type 1 fonts and some smaller TrueType and OpenType CFF fonts. Note that embedding all glyphs in a font is not the same as embedding a full font. For OpenType and TrueType fonts, InDesign and Illustrator never embed all the tables of the font. Such unembedded tables include those used for pair kerning, advanced OpenType features (such as ligatures, alternate representations, contextual alternates, small caps, old style figures, etc.), and extended metrics.
    (4)     There are plenty of bubbameissas out there with regards to the benefits or liabilities of either fully embedding or subset embedding fonts. What is true is that: (a) Acrobat never uses the embedded font for text editing - you must have the font installed on the system in order to do such edits. (b) Subset embedding or not is totally irrelevant to what a RIP does when rendering text, either for PostScript or direct PDF RIPs. Neither subset or full embedding is any more reliable than the other and the specifications of PostScript and PDF do not permit the RIP to replace the embedded font with a font with a similar name - urban legend notwithstanding!!!! (c) Third party plug-ins to Acrobat or applications that claim to allow you to edit PDF files with embedded fonts may be illegally letting you do so if the embedding permissions do not permit embedding for editable embedding or installable embedding - most fonts do not provide such embedding permissions and since the fonts are missing metric information, such editing may be somewhat lacking in quality or features.
    (5)     In fact some very non-tech-savvy organizations have posted requirements for full embedding of fonts in submitted PDF files (I have personally seen one such requirement by some international bureaucracy). They can post such bone-headed requirements based on limited understanding of PDF and PDF workflows, but that doesn't mean that anybody actually provides such PDF files. If in fact you run into such requirements, I would appreciate it if references to same can be forwarded to my attention by private message on these forums.

  • Reader does not use or display the embedded fonts

    I have an odd problem with both Reader X and XI. Neither one will use the embedded fonts when opened from an email. I can forward from that PC to any other PC and the fonts will display correctly. The HP is Windows 7 64 bit. I can view the document that was forwarded through it on XP, Win7 Win8 or Ipad and it displays correctly. The "use local fonts" is uncheck but it seems to ignor the change.

    Adobe PDF Plug-In For Firefox and Netscape 10.1.7 ?
    I think you need to add this to the list of applications and the action to take on the type of content. This can also be managed in the about:permissions page. [[Permissions Manager - Give certain websites the ability to store passwords, set cookies and more]]

  • Cannot extract the embedded font - Adobe Reader XI

    Hello,
    I have an XPS file converted to a PDF with an embedded font inside, when I open the file, as I scroll to a page having '&' in the text (that's my case, but it's probably the same with any special character), a message box shows up saying "Cannot extract the embedded font 'HDGSLM+[my font]'. Some characters may not display or print correctly." and I can't see the special character in the page.
    I checked that my font was actually embedded in the PDF (File -> Properties -> Fonts) and seems to be ok, normal characters look fine and the application doesn't say anything until I scroll to the page with '&' inside. Also, other PDF readers show the document fine.
    I looked around the forum and saw that other people got the same problem and to them was a bug introduced in Adobe Reader 8.x, but nothing was confirmed by developers.
    Can you help me? Is it a bug? If yes, is Adobe working on it?
    Thank you.
    P.S.
    My Adobe Reader version is 11.0.4

    Reader can not create PDF files, so you should look for bugs in the software that was used to generate it.

  • Cannot extract the embedded font arial.Some char might not be displayed

    Hi Folks,
                  Our requirement is to generate the customer account statement for a set of cusomters during a particular period.
                         we  use a script to generate the statement and convert it to pdf.This pdf is then stored in the application server and retrived using cg3y transaction.The transaction allows the statement to be generated for multiple customers and company code.
    the problem that we face is that the first customer account statement is generated properly the rest of the statements are not displayed properly.When we open the customer account statement we get the error 'Cannot extract the embedded font arial.Some characters might not be displayed properly'.All the Headings that we of the font BOLD ARIAL were not displayed.
    This error does not occur for the first pdf file generated.(say we have 3 customers  for the 1st customer pdf is proper however for the next two error'.
                         When I checked the application server I found that the first file has font subtype as Type1 and then rest of the files have font subtype as Truetype.
    This is working fine.I downloaded the file to pc using cg3y.the pdf looks fine.

    Hi,
    this can be related to the compression of the PDF file.
    You can turn off the FlateDecode compression again via report RSTXPDF3 as described in Note #843480. It is a little confusing. The option 'FLATE_COMPR_OFF' needs to be set to 'On' to turn off the FlateDecode compression.
    To set this please run as follows:
    se38 -> RSTXPDF3 -> enter 'FLATE_COMPR_OFF' in the 'Name' field -> Select 'Change Settings' radio button
    You will get a pop-up 'Do not use flat compression'.
    Select the 'on' button.
    After this check if the PDF is created correctly.
    regards,
    Aidan

  • Cannot Extract Embedded Font in PDF Report Generated Using Crystal Reports XI

    The issue is that sometimes the PDF reports generated by Crystal Report XI are not showing the fonts properly. Arial font is used in the Crystal report template(.rpt file) for field label and data elements. When the report is opened in Adobe Reader, it displays the message - "Cannot extract the embedded font 'AAAAAA+ArialBold'. some characters may not display or print correctly." Other PDF Readers like Foxit show blank spaces instead. I tried to change the font to Courier New, Times New Roman etc but still getting the same message.
    The issue is consistent when the application is deployed in Windows server. When deployed in Unix server the issue happens very occasionally. The font files are available and installed in the UNIX box.
    Please tell me why this error message is shown and also tell me how to get it fixed.

    Hi Scot
    Just replied to your email re. conf call.
    In the meantime.
    1st question.  
        Some of our developers are creating the reports under crystal 2008, while some are 2011.
        Could this be a problem, when they are run by the SDK?
        Should we upgrade all our developers to crystal 2011?
    The version of CR a report is created in should not matter at all. I am 100% certain this is not the issue.
    2nd question
        When the report is run, to create the pdf... why would it actually embed the font on the pdf?
        if they weren't embedded.. wouldn't it just pull up the proper font, if the user's pc had that font on their
        pc?
        if it does the common fonts aren't embedded, we would just have to worry about the things like
        barcode 3 of 9
    I can not answer this as that essentially is the way the product is designed. It may look like a limitation, but there are no work-arounds and I would not consider this to be a bug. Perhaps an enhancement, but a pretty faint hope there. And even if, enhancements take very, very low priority and take long, long time before implementation.
    3rd question
        Would the fonts, just need to be installed on the server?   we've seen some indication, that they
        also need to be in a java sub-directory
    The fonts must be on the server as that is where the report engine does it's work, then the report is streamed to the user's browser. E.g.; there is no work done on the browser. Also, the process must have rights to access the fonts.
    One last point. You mention deployment to Linux. Linux is not supported. Please see: SAP Crystal Reports, Developer Version for Microsoft Visual Studio - Supported Platforms
    I suspect this is more an issue with CR not working with the framework for Linux.

  • Embedded font not working in Spark Label control?

    Hi,
    I'm trying to use embedded fonts with the Spark Label (formerly SimpleText) control. I'm using SDK 4 build 10485 now, but I could not manage it in Beta 1 neither.
    I'v been playing with cff: true/false, embedAsCFF:true/false but no results.
    I've added my test application where it does work with the Halo <mx:Label> control, but not with the Spark <s:Label> control.
    So, no compiler errors, but the Spark label control shows a serif (Helvetia?) font where it should be sans as does the Halo control.
    Can anybody help me out here?
    Thanks
