Flash Application Font-Face and Font-Style

This is a similar thread to one I posted earlier but this one is
more detailed to explain my problem
Does anyone know how to change the programs font-face,
font-size, font-style etc ... of the console? I'm referring to all
of the outer workspace area, not the stage.
I found the image below at some website by google just to
illustrate:
http://cis2.stvincent.edu/martincc/introwpd/flash/flashscreen.jpg
See the panels on the right side?
Swatches, Character, Sound panels. On my computer, the font
size for these words and for everything inside these panels are
microscopic. They are so small it can't be read unless you stare at
it for a while.
How do I change the font size or face for these fonts?
Now you see the top of the screen, where it says "
File Edit View Insert Modify Text Control Window Help"? All
of these font sizes are perfectly normal just like everything on my
computer. I also use Adobe Photoshop CS 8.0 and the panel window
fonts are perfect as well as everything else, so I know that it is
a problem only with my Flash 5.0.
I would appreciate any help you guys can give me, as it takes
me forever to work on a project, I have to stare for a while to
figure out what the panel text says.

anyone have any ideas on how to change the window panel text
size?

@font-face and font licenses

Hello,
I'm working with a developer who has a licensed version of Adobe's "Univers" font. Can we use @font-face from CSS 3 to include this font in our website? Or, do we need to use a different type of font-embedding in order to work with the font's licensing type.
Thanks,
erichb2010

I thought you meant font-family. If this font is already included with Snow Leopard, why do you need to embed it? Just refer to it and include a fallback. Windows users won't see the font - bummer for them.
No, you may not extract the font from the operating system and serve it up on your own web site. You can't include Apple files even if you are writing an application that only runs on Macs. If a resource is available on the system, you can use it. You may not copy it except as a backup. You certainly can't distribute it.

Has Mozilla changed the way Firefox displays @font-face enbeded fonts? The site I'm codeing works in Safari, Chrome, and IE, but Firefox 8.0.1 doesn't display the embeded font.

Batch font face and size change

Hi everybody,
I'm looking to create a batch action/script the will select and change the font face and size in a series of .eps files of barcodes.
I'm not sure if it's a scripting thing because I've never scripted before.
If anyone could point me in the right direction or tell me how to do it (action or script) I'd be very grateful.
(Each image contains the barcode and three text elements, all Helvetica 24pt which I want to change to OCRB 18.5pt, on about 120 images)
Thanks chaps

In SAP 4.6c In classical reports output how to change Font size and Font type

Dear Experts,
In SAP 4.6c, in classical and interactive reports output how to change font size and font type.
Regards,
Zaker.

These are HTML formatting questions. Nothing to do with the Oracle SQL and PL/SQL languages.
With old-style HTML, the font size and family are set using the font tag.
With modern style HTML, that is done using cascading style sheets (CSS).
Your favourite search engine will turn up tons of information on both.

No sound in Flash applications like Youtube and Zynga-Frontierville. (Win7, ff 5.1, AdobeFlash 10.3.181.34)

I get no sound in Flash applications like Youtube and Zynga-Frontierville. Video is fine.

I'm not sure how related is this with the thing that happened to me but here it goes.
A while ago I couldn't have two applications that can use the audio channels at the same time. For instance, if I had a paused movie with VLC I could play a video on YouTube but with no sound. Is that your case? Or it doesn't work at all?

Selection properties panel - edit font type and font size

"selection properties" bottom panel - edit font type and font size
In design view
i can no longer find this option in CS5,
how can i change font type and font size of highlighted/selected block of text? like previous DW versions ?
by switching to CSS from html in "selection properties" bottom panel.
i see an option to do that using CSS. Is this the only option now ?
Thanks a lot for help.

What happened if on some pages of my site, there are JS code inserted to display content pulled from other remote host.
Will my own page or site CSS font setting override the JS code font & size setting as well ?
or those JS code can display content using their font selection setting independently ?
>> Yes. In fact it not only does it for the page you're working on, but for the whole site (that's the advantage of CSS vs properties)

No, a Font doesn't have a colour. But you can set the colour of the text in a text area with setColor().

Help - Font Book and font Library doesn't work

I've just updated to a new iMac on Yosemite, and Font Book doesn't work. Neither does putting fonts into the "Library"
There is a range of fonts that ARE working that are already in either place, but some (that worked up until two days ago in my old Mac running OS 10.6.8) just won't work.
If I select the fonts in Font Book, Font Book doesn't load them. If I put them in the Library, they don't appear for use in any application.
As a designer, updating fonts is essential, and if this can't be fixed I'm in serious trouble! So any advice welcome!

We see posts like this here all the time. A person upgrades to a new OS, and Font Book suddenly stops working. Usually, the problem is that Font Book's database has been trashed by the upgrade with the very common symptoms you're seeing. You suddenly can't add fonts, and fonts Font Book says are open don't appear in some, or any apps.
Restart your Mac and immediately hold down the Shift key when you hear the startup chime to boot into Safe Mode. Keep holding the Shift key until you see a progress bar towards the bottom of the screen. You can let go of the Shift key at that point. Yosemite is a bit different. Whether it's a Safe Mode boot or a normal one, you get the same progress bar. It just takes longer to get to the desktop in Safe Mode. So hold the Shift key until you get to the desktop.
OS X asks you to log in (you will get this screen on a Safe Mode boot even if your Mac is set to automatically log in). Let the Mac finish booting to the desktop and then restart normally. This will clear Font Book's database and the cache files of the user account you logged into in Safe Mode.
If that alone doesn't do it (it should), then clear out all of the font cache data.
Close all running applications. From an administrator account, open the Terminal app and enter the following command. You can also copy/paste it from here into the Terminal window:
sudo atsutil databases -remove
Terminal will then ask for your admin password. As you type, it will not show anything, so be sure to enter it correctly.
This removes all font cache files. Both for the system and the current logged in user account. After running the command, close Terminal and immediately restart your Mac.

Can we change font size and font type in reports

Hi All Technical/Functional Masters,
We are developing some transactional reports in ISU. this report has 20 columns to be printed. On screen, display is not a problem but client has a requirement to download this report in PDF format and wants to print on A4-paper in Landscape. Although we have managed to accommodate all the columns on A4 paper but have to compromise with font size that are very small and not visible. If we download the report in excel format we are able to maintain the font size 8 and accommodate all columns after little format but same in PDF is a problem.
Can anyone tell whether we can increase the font size and change font type(from SAP standard to 'Arial') before sending the output in PDF ? Is there any property or utility that can be changed or used for this purpose.

[SOLVED] How to turn on font hinting and font anti-aliasing?

I wanted to configure hinting and anti-aliasing, although I've never used fontconfig before.
I had been reading https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/font_configuration and I have found some contradictions.
First it says "Configuration can be done globally through /etc/fonts/fonts.conf" and then immidiatelly after that it says "This file is replaced during fontconfig updates and shouldn't be edited".
Then it says per-user path ~/.fonts.conf is deprecated in turn for $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/fontconfig/fonts.conf with no indication where should this "$XDG_CONFIG_HOME" actually be.
I get that I am supposed to put my custom XML "somewhere":
<match target="font">
<edit name="hinting" mode="assign"><bool>true</bool></edit>
<edit name="hintstyle" mode="assign"><const>hintfull</const></edit>
<edit name="antialias" mode="assign"><bool>true</bool></edit>
</match>
But I have no idea where?
Last edited by choosegoose (2015-02-02 23:22:56)

Normally the $XDG_CONFIG_HOME variable points to .config in your /home/<user> directory.
So the path that you would use would be: /home/<user>/.config/fontconfig
Please note that it's DOT config.

Flash CS5, Snow Leopard and Font Problems

I'm wondering if anyone else has experienced this issue and might have a quick fix for it:
I have a couple of Flash projects that were originally built in CS3. Last year I upgraded them to CS5 without trouble. Recently I have upgraded my Macs to Snow Leopard, and when I open both of these FLA files in CS5 on Snow Leopard, some of the fonts are insanely distorted.
Any ideas?

I had the same issue and discovered a quick work around (not great for the long term) that does not require OS downgrade.
The first time Flash launches:
1. create a new fla
2. create a text box with the desired font that produces the issue
3. type out every character (lower and UPPER case) include all punctuation and numbers
4. Open any file that uses the font and you should be good to go
Hope that helps.
