Firefox installed in Archlinux can display fonts after a new fonts installed

Hi! I'm a Linux user. Recently I migrate to Archlinux. At first time I used Firefox without issues. Then in the process the install and config software and the distro I installed new fonts. That fonts I used in IBM Linux distro, OpenClient based on RHEL 6.5. Thats fonts are a backup of that machine. The set of fonts include around of 4000 fonts: Windows 7 Fonts, Google Fonts, Droid and others. In RHEL I have not issues with this fonts. The fonts groups are:
<pre><nowiki>[elrengo@xpsl421x .fonts]$ ls -l
total 272
drwx------ 1 elrengo users 4096 Sep 8 2010 AnonymousPro-1.002.001
drwx------ 1 elrengo users 4096 Sep 8 2010 AnonymousProMinus-1.002.001

drwx------ 1 elrengo users 65536 Oct 3 2013 Windows7Fonts
[elrengo@xpsl421x .fonts]$ </nowiki></pre>
But in Archlinux after fonts installation Firefox can not show fonts, and I can not write in textbox. I do:
* Reset Firefox to defaults --> Do not works.
* Uninstall Firefox / Re install Firefox --> Do not works.
* Reinstall fontconfig package in Archlinux. --> Do not works.
* Update font cache --> Do not works.

If need it something more please let me know
Thanks in advance!
Kind regards

If [https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/firefox#Firefox_variants Firefox ]does not anti-alias and/or hint your fonts, try to install [https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/ttf-win7-fonts/ ttf-win7-fonts] (preferred) or [https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/ttf-ms-fonts/ ttf-ms-fonts] and take a look at [https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Font_configuration Font configuration].

Please follow these directions to delete the Mail "sandbox" folders. In OS X 10.9 there are two sandboxes, while in 10.8 there is only one. If you're running a version older than 10.8, this comment isn't applicable.
Back up all data.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
~/Library/Containers/com.apple.mail
Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
Services ▹ Reveal
from the contextual menu.* A Finder window should open with a folder named "com.apple.mail" selected. If it does, move the selected folder—not just its contents—to the Desktop. Leave the Finder window open for now.
Log out and log back in. Launch Mail and test. If the problem is resolved, you may have to recreate some of your Mail settings. You can then delete the folder you moved and close the Finder window.
This action will delete any custom Mail stationery that you have created. If you want to preserve it, ask for instructions.
If you still have the problem, quit Mail again and put the folder back where it was, overwriting the one that may have been created in its place. Repeat with this line:
~/Library/Containers/com.apple.MailServiceAgent
Caution: If you change any of the contents of the sandbox, but leave the folder itself in place, Mail may crash or not launch at all. Deleting the whole sandbox will cause it to be rebuilt automatically.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard is still seeing my old scanner install. How to force it to see new scanner install.

Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard is still seeing my old scanner install. How to force it to see new scanner install? Scanner is recognized by and works fine in Windows. Acrobat however still sees Fujitsu fi-6130dj #3. I need it to see Fujitsu fi-6130dj which is what is listed in Device Manager. (Windows XP SP3).
Thank you for any suggestions.

To provide more detail and list what was done to resolve the issue but there may be a better way.
Background. When you install a USB device to a PC it is listed in Windows Device Manager as installed hardware. If you take the USB plug for any device and plug it into a different USB port on the PC the PC will install drivers again for that device. In Device Manager, if you set a system environment variable for device manager to show non-present devices you can see all of the times this may have occurred. In this specific instance there were five installations in Device Manager for one piece of hardware, a Fujitsu fi-6130 scanner. The first listing was Fujitsu fi-6130dj, then Fujitsu fi-6130dj #2, Fujitsu fi-6130dj #3 and so on. Adobe Acrobat only saw the third instance of these drivers being installed. Once I cleaned Device Manager of all Fujitsu scanner installs I was able to have a single set of drivers installed for this Fujitsu but Adobe still recognized the third instance of the driver install and I could not figure out how to force it to see what Device Manager was seeing, a single instance of the scanner being installed (with no #3 behind it).
Steps performed to try to resolve.
Repair install of Adobe - no luck - still sees the #3 instance of the scanner
Deactivation, uninstall, reboot, reinstall, reactivation of Adobe - no luck, same behavior as above
Complete removal of all scanner related software. This included the ISIS drivers in Add/Remove Programs and all other related software. This also included deleting the contents of the TWAIN_32 directory found within the root of the Windows directory and also included deleting the scanner from Device Manager.
Rebooted.
Reinstalled complete packages of both TWAIN and ISIS scanners - with the scanner disconnected. Powered the scanner back on and let Windows install the drivers for the hardware. Only at this point did Adobe see the new install of the Fujitsu scanner and no longer looked for the #3 instance of that scanner install.

Acrobat 9 goes blind to Type 1 fonts after ATM 4.1 install?

Acrobat's touch up tool has become unable to handle all Type I fonts, unless I uninstall and then reinstall the fonts in the current Windows session. I'm referring to use of the Touch up Text tool. It still does fine with TT fonts, but any attempt to touch up or add typing of an Adobe Type 1 font produces just small dots.
The problem started after I (probably unwisely) installed my old copy of ATM 4.1 on my Windows Vista System. Seeing that ATM didn't seem to work under Vista, I uninstalled ATM. However, after that, Acrobat 9.0 seems incabable of editing type 1 fonts, unless I ununstall the specific fonts I want to use in the editing, and then reinstall them. It works fine thereafter, until I shut down the computer and start again. By installing ATM did I damage Acrobat's ability to recognize Type I fonts?
The problem does not occur with any other CS 4 products.

Michael,
Thank you very much for the fast response and directons to the patch! The patch seems to have fixed the problem. That was a long-running annoyance.
Best regards,
Marty

Can't sync iPhone because new iTunes install is not 64 Bit.

The error message is: "this iphone cannot be used because the required software is not installed. Run the itunes installer to remove itunes, then install the 64-bit version of itunes.".
I've browsed a few forum posts, but this is a brand new computer, and I'm shocked that the itunes installation doesn't work.
steps:
1. I'm downloading itunes64Setup.exe, and running the installation.
2. I plug in my iPhone. I get the message. "this iphone cannot be used because the required software is not installed. Run the itunes installer to remove itunes, then install the 64-bit version of itunes.".
How is this possible? it's a brand new installation? It starts by trying to install the files into C:\program files (x86)\itunes, not C:\program files\itunes, but when I run the installation, I see files in both locations.
How do I fix this?

Yeah, I have the same problem. Supposedly you access devices by clicking on the little iPhone icon - except there is no little icon when my iPhone and/or iPad are connected:

Changing Fonts to a new font not defined in OBIEE

We are doing a rebranding of our company and we would like to use a new font for all of our reporting. This font is not one that is currently listed in OBIEE. I have the .otf files, I am hoping these read the same as .ttf files, but I don't know where to place them nor can I find where to define them so the Dashboard, Answers and the pdf write picks them up.
Thats for any help,
Jay

Hi,
I'm afraid this will be very hard to implement. In fact, it hasn't much to do with OBIEE, but with your browser. The problem is that GillSans is not a standard font in a browser. So even when you edit all your css files and set GillSans as the default font, it won't be used because GillSans isn't implemented as a font in your browser.

Fonts after a new install

Hello Forum,
Having completed a new install of arch, and sucessfully installed the Gnome Desktop Environment, I am having trouble printing legibly and viewing web pages properly, problems that I assume are to do with incorrectly/insufficiently installing fonts.
I have tried to learn about what fonts can/should be installed as a basis for 'normal' web browsing and printing from reading the ArchWiki, but I have become somewhat confused, and seem to have got stuck at this point.
I wondered if someone could give me some advice on the 'basics' to get me 'up and running' with printing and web browsing please?
Many thanks everyone.

The first part of that is good. The second part is understandable - but if we're to help we need to know which wiki pages you've followed, and what you've already done.
There are many approaches. It seems many archers use the infinality configurations (I tried it, but it didn't suit me). But for a simple pragmatic approach, I'd suggest installing ttf-ms-fonts from the AUR. For better or for worse, many websites rely on ms fonts.

Pdf doesn't display even after reader 8.1 installed

I have Acrobat 7 installed on my computer long time ago; then
I downloaded and installed Acrobat Reader 8.1.2. But my air
application still can't display pdf. Is it because the old acrobat
7? I don't want to remove it because I sometimes need to write
pdf.

Agreed, but I think that for most Mail seems to be working fine. There don't seem to many posts complaining about Mail problems - well no more than usual.
Have you tried a Safe Boot which sometimes helps in solving odd problems. and if that doesn't help, re-installing the OS using the Recovery HD?

For a Safe Boot restart holding down the shift key until you see a grey progress bar. Once booted restart as normal from the Apple menu.

Specifically, which display preferences?

Can't sync CC fonts after restoring standard fonts

I restored the standard fonts on my mac using Font Book. Unfortunately this screwed up my Creative Cloud fonts.
The Creative Cloud app says the font is synced. But it's not on my system anymore. On TypeKit.com it says I don't have any fonts synced with my desktop.

I'm sorry that you ran into trouble with this! Would you please send your Adobe ID to [email protected] so that we can look into this?
Thank you,
