Finding a certain font?

I'm not sure if this is the right place for this, but is there a program available for the Mac that can find a certain font that is selected or on the clipboard?
I have this pdf open in Chrome and it has a nice looking font and I do not know what font it is.
Thanks in advance.

LJ Pro200 M251n not printing certain font sizes

My new printer won't print text at certain font sizes using Word or Publisher 2010. Up to 60pt it's fine, but not 72, 100 or 120. However, it will print 240 pt. It will also print these text items from pdf.
Is this a driver issue? I'm using PCL6 but can't find any other drivers on the HP website. Do I need UPD PCL 6?
This question was solved.

Hi,
Update the latest firmware for the printer, that should resolve a such.
Use the following tool if it is connected with a USB:

AppliedFont not working for a certain font

Hello all,
a small but strange problem here. that only exists with a certain font. a shortened version of the script (as it pertains to the discussion) is here. It loops through paragraph styles looking for certain values and changes them:
                    else if (appliedFont.fontFamily== "Myriad Pro"){
                        appliedFont= "Yakout Linotype";
                        if (fontStyle== "Regular"){
                            fontStyle= "Light";}
                        else if (fontStyle== "Semicondensed"){
                            fontStyle= "Light";}
                        else if (fontStyle== "Semicondensed Italic"){
                            fontStyle= "Light";
                            skew= -15;}
                        else if (fontStyle== "Italic"){
                            fontStyle= "Light";
                            skew= -15;}
                        else if (fontStyle== "Semibold"){
                            fontStyle= "Bold";}
                        else if (fontStyle== "Semibold Semicondensed"){
                            /fontStyle= "Bold";}
                        else if (fontStyle== "Semibold Semicondensed Italic"){
                            fontStyle= "Bold";
                            skew= -15;}
                        else if (fontStyle== "Semibold Italic"){
                            fontStyle= "Bold";
                            skew= -15;}
                        else if (fontStyle== "Bold"){
                            fontStyle= "Bold";}
                        else if (fontStyle== "Bold Italic"){
                            fontStyle= "Bold";
                            skew= -15;}
With it i get the error that the system cannot find the font i want. It even wont work in this case:
app.selection[0].appliedFont = "Yakout Linotype";
HOWEVER, if I select a piece of text and change that piece of text to Yakout Linotype using indesigns GUI and THEN run the script, the script works without a flaw.
anyone know why a font would have to be present in a document for the script to call upon it. Or why that doesnt seem to be the case with other fonts, ONLY Yakout Linotype. Thanks!
Edit: "Yakout Linotype" is the fontFamily, Ive tried using fullName and fullNameNative.

I'm guessing: does "Yakout Linotype Regular" exist as a font style? If not, that's the problem -- you are trying to change the Myriad Pro in "Myriad Pro Regular" to Yakout, but it has no "Regular", and at that point the script fails. You can change both the font and the font style in one go by using "Yakout Linotype\tLight" as the argument to appliedFont -- with a [Tab] between the font family and style name.

How to customize the appearance of certain font-families?

How can I change the display of certain font-families? Especially I want to change it for the family "Script" (which can for example be seen [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Font_family_%28HTML%29#Generic_fonts here] ).
I don't know which font is used at the time, but I want to set it to ''Monotype Corsiva''.

The number of possible responses (buttons) determines whether buttons are rendered or a pop list is shown
I am trying to work out how to alter the appearance of the reponse section of a workflow notification accessed via the worklist.
I have set up three options in a Lookup group. They appear as a row of buttons across the bottom. As a contrast in the PO Approval workflow notification Oracle has the Lookup list as a drop down box with the options.
How is this done, where can I find some documentation?
Thanks,
Michael

I am using Illustrator CS5. I am using a certain font and when I make a selection to use one of the letter options or a glyph, it does not take my selection; in other words, nothing changes.

What font? What system? What Glyph? What language settings? Could be anything. Either way, ask in the AI forum. You'll get quicker answers there - if you provide all the required info.

I have created an editable PDF via Adobe Indesign. When I open the PDF in Adobe Acrobat Pro DC, is there a way to specify a font style? Or is there a way in InDesign to make sure when someone type in that text field it is a certain font?

I need to make sure the text that is entered is a certain font to keep it continuous with the rest of the document. Thank you!

To go into form editing mode, select "Prepare Form" in the right hand pane. You'll then get a toolbar along the top that contains the various form-related tools. The first thing to do is add a temporary button. You'll use this to determine the name of the font for use with the script as well as place the script that will change the font properties of the text fields. So create a button anywhere, double-click it to bring up the field properties dialog, and on the Actions tab add a JavaScript action to the Mouse Up event that is:
// Mouse Up script for temporary button
app.alert(event.target.textFont);
On the Appearance tab, select the font that you want to use for the text fields. Once you've done that, close form editing mode and click the button. It will display a popup that will list the font name. This may be different than the name that appeared in the dropdown on the appearance tab, so write it down. For example, when I chose "Minion Pro" from the dropdown, the popup showed "MinionPro-Regular".
The next step is to replace that Mouse Up script with the following:
// Mouse Up script for temporary button
// Change the font and font size for all text field in this document
for (var i = 0; i < numFields; i++) {
    var f = getField(getNthFieldName(i));
    if (f.type === "text") {
        f.textFont = "MinionPro-Regular";
        f.textSize = 9;
Replace "MinionPro-Regular" with the font name that you wrote down before and set the font size to whatever you want. Use 0 to specify a font size of "Auto".
This script will change the font of all text fields to whatever you specify. When you've confirmed that the text fields are set up as you want, you can go ahead and delete or hide the button. If you think you'll be doing a lot of forms work, you can create custom tools in Acrobat to speed up this process, but this should get you started. InDesign won't let you specify a lot of field properties and actions, so you have to work this way, and using automation scripts is an accessible way to significantly speed up the process and avoid mistakes.

Is there a way to find/change the font of numericals only, within a document in indesign?

Is there a way to find/change the font of numericals only, within a document in indesign?

It might not be what you need for this document, but if you were creating it from scratch, a GREP style would probably be the way to go. That way, new figures added to the text will automatically be styled the way you like.
Start with a base Paragraph Style (i.e. 'Body') that all subsequent styles ('Heading' etc) are based on. Select a figure, and apply the font and any other attributes required. Select it and make a new Character Style. In your Paragraph Style, go to GREP Styles, and set it to apply the Character Style to the 'Any Digit' Wildcard.

"cannot find Arial MT font" error

I have Windows 7 and Adobe 11... Having a problem with some documents saying "cannot find Arial MT font"... some parts of a document will just have dots. I didn't have this problem w/Windows XP & older version of Adobe. I've gone back to Adobe 9.5 & 10..still does the same thing. Documents will open correctly w/PDF...but PDF doesn't give me an option to choose page size which Reader does. Please help.

Arial MT is not a font that comes standard with Windows 7. It appears that the creator of this PDF has failed to embed the font into it.

Flash Text not displaying certain fonts

Thanks as always…
I am trying to use Flash text for some headings, but after an
hour of pulling my hair out I've just realised it will only display
certain fonts, such as Helvetica etc.
I added the font I want to use to my font list but it still
does not display…
I'm using MX on OSX 10.3.9.
Any ideas? Thansk.

Is your text in a dynamic text box, or static text box in
flash?
I don't think the issue concerns the "true-type" or not
"true-type" font.
In Flash, when text is part of a dynamic text box (which I
assume is the case in your situation),
then the font works just like in an html page:
if the font is installed on the computer it will show, if
not, it won't. The way around this, is to
embed the font data in the authoring flash file, and link it
to the dynamic text box, via actionScript.
So if you cannot work on the authoring Flash file with Flash
MX or Flash8, and if indeed we're
talking about a dynamic text box, your only option is to use
a web-safe font.

How to find if certain record exists from stored procedure

Hello
I am not an expert in this and am trying simple thing. I want to find if certain record exists in a table and if so set some boolean variable.
create or replace procedure findit(param)
AS
return_group boolean;
BEGIN
myflag := false;
--here goes my question
-- say I have SELECT WHATEVER FROM TABLE WHERE BLA = param
--if it returns at least one record set myflag to true;
END;Any idea?

THanks Satyaki_De,
However, when I put simple SELECT statement in the body of my procedure it does not compile. Actually I should have said that before. So here is my code and where it breaks:
create or replace procedure close_subjects(study_id varchar2)
AS
return_group boolean;
BEGIN
dbms_output.enable(1000000);
FOR current_group IN(
   SELECT DISTINCT group_id from groups WHERE study_id=study_id
) LOOP
   FOR current_subject IN(
      SELECT individual_id from groups WHERE group_id=current_group.group_id AND study_id=study_id
   ) LOOP
      return_group := true;
      SELECT INDIVIDUAL_ID FROM ASSIGN WHERE DATE_TIME_ASSIGNED = ( SELECT MAX(DATE_TIME_ASSIGNED) FROM ASSIGN WHERE INDIVIDUAL_ID = current_subject.individual_id ) AND                            ASSIGN_STATUS_ID = 'A';
     IF SQL%RowCount = 0 THEN
       return_group := false;
         dbms_output.put_line(current_subject.individual_id);
      END IF;
   END LOOP;
END LOOP;
END;
/If I comment out SELECT statement and leave dbms_output for testing purposes it works well. As I said I am faaaar from expert and seems to me that I cannot have SELECT in procedure BODY?

Is there anyway to find a new font on Pages for iPad? The letters are hard like a rock when you use foreign languages like Thai. The fonts on device do not support foreign language.

Where do I find the "Maestro" font in Photoshop? It used to be included with all the other fonts. It is a set of musical symbols. Thanks.

The only way I know to achieve this would be to create three separate bookmarks on the Bookmarks toolbar and click on a one that you want to load in the current tab. You can also try to right-click the Back arrow and click the entry at the bottom of the list to return to the first page.

Browsing fonts causes certain fonts to dissapear - cs4 11.0.1

When text is highlighted in a document and I attempt to change to a new font by clicking in the "set font family" dialogue box so I can scroll through my fonts, certain fonts will make that dialogue box, while scrolling with the arrow keys, go blank and stop the ability to browse through all my fonts I have activated.
I had no problem with CS3 and CS4 11.0 when i would previously do this but now that i have upgraded to 11.0.1 I seem to be having this problem.
Can anyone help or is anyone having the same problem.
Thank you.

Cannot Select Text That Use Certain Fonts

I have some PDF files where I cannot select the text because they use certain fonts (monotxt for example) when I change the font to Arial and recreate the PDF, then I can select the fonts for copy and paste. My question is how to add fonts that Adobe can recognize for selection.

The fonts are invisible to selection. I cannot select them at all. I do have the license for these fonts. I did some further tests and found that it only happens when I make a PDF from my AutoCAD application and use the monotxt font type. I guess it could be a problem with the AutoCAD application and the creation of the PDF and not the Adobe Reader.

Finding a certain font?
