Exported swf looking different in Pc and Mac

So I made pages with FC. But now i have noticed that it is looking different in different operating systems.
When I look it with my Mac Book pro using what ever browser (safari, firefox etc.) The text in this page will look like this.
Also as you can see I have pressed down the link "Maanantai". In Mac it is looking ok. But in PC there are some cutting.
And if I look the text with PC (windows XP) with any browser (IE, firefox) it will look like this. How it is possible?
I thought that swf file is WYSIWYG? Apparently it generates something concerning to text.

Hi,
You are correct about font embedding - if you don't do it, your text will look different across platforms.
If you're willing to jump to Flash Builder, here's the documentation on embedding fonts:

Stay tuned for some font embedding help build into Catalyst...

Site opens different in PC and Mac

Hi, I am having trouble with the site after I publish it to a non .mac domain. It opens different in PC and Mac. If I fix to look fine for one opens weird in other. Also, the navigation tabs doesent open in some computers. Any ideas?
The site is
http://www.ournepal.info/
Thanks

The main thing is to stick to fonts from the web safe list. If you do use other fonts make sure you convert them to an image. Doing this will increase your page download time and should be avoided where possible.
The standard iWeb navigation will not appear on PCs using Internet Explorer with Java turned off.
The solution is to hide the standard navigation, build your own in a text box, create the links and paste it to each page of your site

Pdf color looks different in preview and acrobat?

I notice that the colors in various PDF files I have look different in Preview and in Acrobat. Is there some weird color profile issue?
To be specific, I can create a PDF file in various ways, of a slide deck I originally created using Keynote. It has various different color blocks in the slides. In particular some acid green colors look very different depending on whether I open the PDF in Acrobat or in Preview.
Preview shows the colors as they were in the original keynote application. But Acrobat shows them far more muted.
I learned from another post that if I create the PDF by first saving to postscript and then creating the PDF using Acrobat, the issue seems to go away. However this is very inconvenient.
In short, it seems as though there is some peculiar difference between the way Preview and Keynote (and probably Pages ) handle color and the way Acrobat handles color.
Is there some way to fix this using some setting in one of the programs?
By the way, this is not a new problem. I noticed it with previous OS's as well as previous versions of Keynote. I am currently using the latest version of everything.

Same problem here. I was printing a PDF that my designer had sent me. Before I have always used Acrobat, but I've started using Preview in Leopard since it's faster and more powerful than before. But the colors were seriously wrong, often reversed completely. I believe this file was originally created in Illustrator.

Is QT DVD Player different on Windows and MAC?

I have both Mac and PC computers. QT 7.1.3 is installed on both. I can view both commercial (Hollywood) and non-commercial mp2 content on the Mac but not the PC. Can anyone tell me what the difference is and why?
Mac and PC Mac OS X (10.3.9) Win XP Pro

Is QT DVD Player different on Windows and MAC?
There is no such thing as a QT DVD Player. On the Mac there is a QT Player which does not play DVDs and there is a DVD Player which does. You are probably trying to compare the DVD Player on the Mac with the QT Player on the PC here.

Exported PDF looks different in Preview, Adobe Reader

Hi,
I'm relatively new to InDesign and experiencing all sort of problems. I'm trying to export PDF of my resume in a small size file to send it over the email. However, after exporting when I view PDF document in different applications, it looks different.
1) In Adobe Reader in 100% view the letters in bold are "jumping". Please see the screenshot below
2) The colors of the logo come out right when viewed in Adobe Reader. Which is 1st image:
However when viewed in applications such as Preview or just default Mac preview with space bar. The colors of the logo and the contact details comes out completely different then in Adobe Reader.
I export the PDF with the default settings that comes with smallest file size but I need to make sure it looks good as this resume is for my job and will be viewed most probably on the computer. The logo is linked to Adobe Illustator file in InDesign document.
Please help as I spend about 3 hours trying to figure it out. I would really appreciate your help!
Natalia

Hi Mike,
Thank you for your answer. I've tried most of the thing you recommended but it doesn't work:
1) The file was originally created in CMYK and then I converted it to sRGB in InDesign. As well as chose transperency blend space as RGB. As for the logo then the option in Illustrator to convert the file into RGB mode seems to be disabled.
3). Exactly what I was doing.
I don't understand what I'm doing wrong... Is there a way to import all the links from illustrator into InDesign file?

Exported swf formatting differs from preview mode

When I view a model in preview mode, everything looks fine with the formatting. However, after exporting the file (or viewing the export preview), some of the formatting is incorrect - such as axes labels and titles being truncated or moved from their original position, as well as grid sizes changing so that what I have aligned no longer is aligned.
I can make formatting adjustments in the model so that it appears more properly in the exported swf file, basically correcting for these differences. However, this is obviously not ideal, and I have not been able to identify any patterns in these discrepancies (sometimes it looks fine, other time not). I appreciate any suggestions!

Hi,
I am facing the same issue too. The whole formatting goes off once exported to ppt. The fonts reduce to such an extent that I cannot see the fonts. If I drag the swf component to full screen in ppt, the labels, come over the axes.
Please let me know how to correct it.

Exported pictures look different when uploaded to websites.

I noticed that exported pictures from Lightroom uploaded to Facebook or Shutterfly look different that when viewing the same exported pictures on my pc. Why is that? The exported pictures were not adjusted, maybe only cropped and red eyes were removed. Yet the colors appear different when viewing the same pictures on Facebook or in Shutterfly. If I upload exact the same picture directly from my picture folder, the colors look different. I wonder why this is happening.

Export as sRGB will always help; however most browsers are not colour managed so the colour reproduction can vary anyway even when using sRGB. Only Safari is fully managed, Firefox works up to a point (it only uses icc v2 profiles, not v4 it will be OK with LR as LR presently exports to the v2 version of sRGB) or browsers don't honour profiles at all. Calibrating your monitor is also an important factor here and a hardwear device is required to do this correctly.
How an image looks in non colour managed applications cannot be a basis for jusdging an image so only fully colour managed applications (such as LR or PS) should ever be used for processing.

My Muse page looks different on Firefox and Chrome - both are the latest versions

On Firefox, my pre-loader wants to load each time it encounters an Edge Animate on my scroll page. Page anchors are slightly changed in Firefox and this messes up my scroll, opacity and Ege Animate triggers.
I'm not sure if this is relevant but I also receive this error message in my browser immediately after exporting to HTML - http://www.broadcastgems.com/mediastreamer5/Muse_js_Error.jpg
Here's my Muse Webpage - http://www.broadcastgems.com/MoGraphIntensity_ShapesText_PreLoad/
Lastly, I can't get my Form on the said page to work - on both Chrome and FIrefox. I can fill in the boxes but clicking 'Send' doesn't seem to do anything. Also, the text column for "Message" is ridiculously narrow - only 2-3 words long and I can't seem to change this. Visually it looks long but once I start typing it wordwraps after only 2-3 words. I'm using the built-in Form widget that comes with Muse.BTW, the form is right at the bottom of the page/URL I provided in the previous para - you can get there via the menu button, Inquiry.
Thanks for any assistance
- Roland

Hi Aish, here's the screen recording I made http://www.broadcastgems.com/mediastreamer5/Muse_Browser_Issue_Jan29_2014_01.zip
Notice how Firefox initiates the Muse pre-loader each time it reaches an Edge Animate object AND how the layout looks different when I use the menu buttons to access page anchors. Unfortunately, I forgot to record the form's Message Text Field, to show how narrow the column is. Any idea on how to fix/enlarge the column for this?
BTW, I just received a form submission that I made a while back - like half an hour ago.
Cheers

Dark areas in photos looks different in Loupe and Develope

First let me say that I´ve created a similar thread in lightroomforums.net.
Let me also add that I´ve made extensive research on the web and also read this post: Why does the color and or tone of my image change after import?
This is my current setup.
I run lightroom 5.6, OSX 10.10.
I have been shooting with a 7D or a EOS M in RAW, Adobe RGB With picture style set to standard and no JPG´s.
I have imported my photos as DNG´s with no develop settings applied and build previews set to 1:1 (I have tried different settings here).
I have my Catalog Settings / Preview Cache set to 2880 pixels, quality: High (I have also tried different settings here) (I have a very big screen)
Now to my problem.
Now when I review my photos in 1:1 (or any other size) the dark areas looks good in develop module but when i go back to Loupe the dark areas have a slightly brighter, less contrast look.
This problem only occurs in the darkest parts and does not effect the rest of the image. The overall picture looks the same except for the very darkest parts.
I have tried different monitor calibration settings but the issue persists.
I have tried to create a new catalog, import some new shots but with no difference.
I have also done the same but instead of import to DNG´s I have copied the CR2´s, no difference.
I have tried to optimized the catalog and I have also "Update DNG previews and metadata", no difference.
When "edit file in photoshop CC" the version of the photo that opens in photoshop is the "Loupe" view.
This only happens with RAW/DNG files and not with TIFF or JPG.
Here is a picture that in my case looks very bad in Loupe view but significantly better in Develop View: Dropbox - IMG_3662.dng
I will also try to post two screendumps at 2:1 from the the two views. The picture with more darks in it is the screendump from the develop module and the less dark is from the loupe view.
Why is this occurring? How can I stop it?
Any help is highly appreciated.
UPDATE:
I have taken 4 new shots with the same setup as described above.
But with different color settings and picture styles.
Adobe RGB - Standard
Adobe RGB - Neutral
sRGB - Standard
sRGB - Neutral
With the same results. Dark areas look darker in Develope module.

Footage Looks Different in SpeedGrade and when rendered

Hello
I’m having some problems figuring out what my file actually look like.
Is there still a QuickTime bug that cause QuickTime to show a gamma-shifted or otherwise-screwy image?
5dMkII h.264 .mov file
The same file in QuickTime and VLC looks different. VLC version is darker and redder.
That file in SG looks even darker, and slightly redder.
Rendered out from SpeedGrade to ProRes422 (Automatic Color Adjustment switch on in SG) looks close to SpeedGrade display, but a few points redder and a touch darker.
Rendered out from SpeedGrade to ProRes422 (Automatic Color Adjustment switch off in SG) much lighter and paler than SpeedGrade display.
Same results with ProRes444.
Why do these look different?
Latest MacPro Tower
Latest OS X
64GB RAM
AMD FirePro D700 6144 MB
2x LaCie 321 monitors, calibrated with Spyder3 Elite
QuickTime Pro 7 or QuickTime Player bundled with OS
All files viewed on the same monitor
Thanks in advance for any help.

In general, it depends.
You can't be responsible for every other computer & user in the world ... even though at times they'll try and make you so. The best anyone can do is run a calibrated "shop" and know you're delivering good technical content. Test it on other calibrated systems, and over broadcast monitors if such are available somewhere you know. For clients with specific needs, TEST. Send a test over and have them check it ... for most TV use this is crucial. For say adds on movie theatre screens between shows, arrange to take a sample over before they "open" for the day and have it played on their equipment onto the screen ... see what it looks like, adjust & retest as necessary.
For web use ... that's a total crapshoot off the mark.Best you can do is again, see that your system is as accurately calibrated as you can. Set the preferences for video players on your machine to use your system's calibration rather than their internal, which will ALWAYS do something odd to the signals. But not only odd ... unpredictable computer to computer. If your system is fully calibrated, your work over the web will hopefully average out pretty decent.
For web-delivery clients, still ... do initial testing to see that they are happy with the results you give them. If on their computer they want it bluer, and ... you know that means it's gonna really be BLUE on many machines ... perhaps showing them on a laptop that it does look good as-is on another system or some sort of client education moment may need to happen. I've heard plenty of complaints that the client demanded someone deliver something too dark ... and then complained back at them because they got comments from others that the material was too dark. Love that, eh? Client demanded they change it darker even though told it would be too dark for most computers ... then groused at them that it was too dark. Right. Oh frabjous joy.
Over in the video lounge here and on a couple other sites ... the threads on Stupid Client Demands have at times been a riot and at times something to near cry over. As a 30+ year stills portrait photographer, we've had the same thing at times from clients ... a demand to just plain print their images GREEN or something. Most of which we've complied with, some we ... didn't. What an interesting variety of brains and eyes there are about the planet ...
My experience is that just doing the best I can, it looks pretty darn good on my client's tv's and computers. Some go one way or the other a bit, but in general, it works fine. And check if you've got a setting in either system controls or the Qt & VLC controls for system-managed color.

Website created with iWeb looks different in IE and Firefox than Safari-why

So I spent a few hours working on my Home and About Us page. Then, while browsing this forum, I started seeing posts about how sites done with iWeb might not look good in IE and/or Firefox. I decided to test out my work. I zipped up my site files and emailed them to myself. I went to my Dell desktop and downloaded the files to that computer. I opened up the home page in Firefox first. The site seemed to look ok, and both the home and about us page links showed up and were functional (i.e. I was able to browse back and forth between the two pages). However, I had some bullet points on the about us page that had a green border around them. This rendered fine in Safari on my Mac, but in Firefox, the bottom line of the box was not connected! Why?
After viewing in IE, I was depressed. The site didn't look at all like it should have. Not only that, but I couldn't navigate between the pages, since the links for home and about us were not at the top. What can I do to make sure that a site I create with iWeb looks good in Safari, IE, and Mozilla Firefox?
-A stumped newbie

Well I see that you and I share the same problem, I posted the same type of question and am anxiosly awaiting replies on this topic, as it is very important
I own a small business, and every hour a customer cannot view my site is a customer lost to incompatibility issues.
I hope someone can help answer these issues.

Quicktime video looks different in Firefox and Safari, is there a fix?

My full problem is described in this thread:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=4451761
but to keep it simple, my immediate issue is that Safari and Firefox are displaying my video differently. Firefox appears darker and Safari appears brighter. With my monitor set to a gamma of 1.8 (default for OS X) Firefox looks perfect and Safari looks washed out, and with my monitor set to 2.2 (Windows default and all-together better looking) Firefox is too dark and Safari is perfect.
All I want to know is WHY they look different and how to fix this.

Thanks for your response. While this may work with audio and video originating from your own computer it doesn't seem to effect audio and video viewed from the Firefox 5.01 browser which uses a QuickTime plugin. Audio and Video viewed from Safari and Firefox 3.6.19 work fine which leads me to believe the QT plugin and Firefox 5 browser are not working correctly.

Image looks different in Photoshop and Lightroom

I started a forum on flickr and I have some issues with my images. I have calibrated monitor but my images look off online even though I saved them as sRGB. Now my image looks one way in PS and then when I finish editing it and save it, I import it into lightroom and it looks different.
Same image, but it looks different.
http://www.flickr.com/groups/photoshopsupport/discuss/72157626443796391/#comment7215762645 5942911

The image on the left in PS looks the same in Picasa Image
Viewer (I selected it to be color managed based on the monitor profile), looks the same in Windows Image Viewer, and looks the same in the thumbnail. The image on the right in LR is how the picture looks when I look at my image in Firefox but in Internet Explorer and in Chrome, the image looks like the image on the left in PS. The image below shows how the thumbnail looks different from the actual picture when it's double clicked and viewed in Picasa. The thumbnail (which shows the subjects having green skin) would be how I saw it online while the double clicked version is how I saw it in PS, even though it was sRGB (I checked the image properties to make sure of the color space).
I have a ATI 5470 GPU on my ASUS 17.3 inch laptop. Not sure about the drivers.

In Lightroom CC images look different in Library and Develop modules. After output, images do not appear as they do in Develop.

As above.

Mac OS X 10.9.5 has a color management bug that can lead to colors appearing different in Develop and Library: Jao's photo blog: Serious color management bug in Mac OS 10.9 "Mavericks" . See also: Jao's photo blog: Further quantification of the Mavericks color management problem and Jao's photo blog: Color management in Safari is broken in Mavericks too. Sorry for all the links to my blog, but this bug really annoys me and it bugs me that it hasn't been fixed all these months that Mavericks has been out. This can lead to color shifts especially in the deep tones. You can sometimes work around it by turning on soft proofing and proofing to adobeRGB or sRGB. Adobe could fix this but they haven't so far. Apple could fix it too, but they haven't until now. They fixed some code that lead to Aperture working correctly but Lightroom still has the problem.

JSPs Looking different in IE and Netscape

Why is the same jsp looks(look and feel) different in IE and in Netscape. for ex. If i change colour in CSS for table in IE it is coming properly. But in Netscape some parts where the data is not there and not getting filled and it looks awkward. Is this something to do with browsers or our JSPs developed usind jd3.0? Can any one suggest a round abt?
Thanx

Hello,
Welcome to the world of CSS, Netscape and Microsoft differences will always come up when working with CSS, the only recommendation I have is the work with the CSS file using the Netscape and MS reference material until your application looks correct. Some of the CSS attributes have different names for the two browsers. We also found Netscape seems to ignore some of the settings.
