PDF font bug in Preview

I've put Leopard on all 9 of my macs, and I love it.
On one of them (unfortunately the macbook pro that I use all the time), I'm having a nasty bug with PDFKit.
When I open a PDF file that I made in pdflatex in Preview, sometimes it looks fine, but sometimes the fonts are all wrong and sans-serif-y. In many occasions, I an switch back and forth between the good fonts and the bad fonts JUST BY SWITCHING AWAY FROM PREVIEW AND SWITCHING BACK.
bad:

good:
http://www.screenshots.cc/view_image/c83d91304/ThisLooksGreat.png
Has anyone seen anything like this? The bad fonts propagate themselves all the way to a printed page.

Indeed, wiping out the caches is not a permanent solution.
I found a couple of threads in some tex newsgroups that discuss this problem. There doesn't seem to be a resolution. There was some discussion that Latex Equation Editor is no longer being developed, but LaTeXIt, a similar program shows a similar font corruption problem. Fonts are fine in Preview until using LaTeXIt (or Latex Equation Editor), when they get 'corrupted'. By that I mean that documents viewed in Preview often come up sans-serif, regardless of the original font, and often special characters, such as arrows above letters (indicating vectors) disappear. Keynote files that use those characters (from, for example, using LaTeXIt under Tiger) show corruption. Rebooting (and possibly simply logging out and back in) 'cures' the problem, ie, Preview and Keynote are once again happy. During all this, Acrobat is always happy.
This is kind of painful, since I give physics lectures using Keynote, and things like integral and summation signs and vectors and such are kind of nice to have around.
Someone has got to know what is going on!

Font bug in Preview PDFs due to ATSSERVER

Hello all,
For the past couple of months I have been having a very annoying problem where the text of pdf is garbled. I'll download a pdf file and when I open it some or most characters are replaced with empty spaces or symbols.
After a lot of searching a few weeks ago I found a post describing this exact problem, but to make this solution easier to find (and since this bug has not been fixed) I will post it again.
If you pdf files have missing or garbled text, open terminal and kill the ATSSERVER process with the following command line (substitute in your user name):
killall -u [YourUserName] ATSServer
After running this command, ATSServer will relaunch right away. If you close the afflicted pdf file and reopen it all the fonts will display properly. I don't know why it happens, and I wish I could find the previous thread on this to thank the person who originally suggested that terminal command.
Apple, this is a frustrating bug that needs attention.
Thank you!

Is there still interest in other details? My problem is that I may get the right font or another substituted generically; the documents always open OK in Adobe Acrobat 9, but in Preview (directly) or by Finder/spacebar I can get different appearances *each time* I open, in quick succession: parts of the document may have the correct, serif, font and others a generic substitution. I'm using documents I've written and compiled using TeXShop 2.26 / MacTex 2008
Within a minute's interval, opening the same document three times can give different results, mixing the right and the substituted font in the one document, or sometimes only the substituted font.
I'm not very familiar with the processes that should be running, but I was a bit surprised to find two instances of ATSServer at one time; perhaps this is normal spawn...?
168 ATSServer marj 0.0 2 10.94 MB 704.14 MB Intel
615 ATSServer _atsserver 0.0 2 3.94 MB 622.83 MB Intel
I have screendumps at: http://public.me.com/mjbnks
thanks in advance for any suggestions!

Bug & solution: DW8 not finding stylesheet

Back on 13th April, 2006, I posted a message below about DW8
not picking
up the stylesheet on a site I was managing in it. The same
problem
recurred with another site I've just created from scratch, so
this time I
set to tracking the bug down. Basically, the problem is with
DW8's
stylesheet parsing. It balks at tags within CSS comments. So
the
following will generate a problem:
body {
font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 0.9em;
/* Background colour commented out to allow Javascript
background colour changer to work, as it can't overrule the
stylesheet.
bgcolor set in page <body> tag.*/
/* background: #fff;*/
color: #000;
Change the above by scratching <body> from inside the
comments to leave:
body {
font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 0.9em;
/* Background colour commented out to allow Javascript
background colour changer to work, as it can't overrule the
stylesheet.*/
/* background: #fff;*/
color: #000;
and DW8 behaves as it should. This is annoying, as any code
parser should
completely ignore anything within comments. Anyway, I report
the problem
as a public service, so that the Macroserfs can squash it,
and the rest
of youse can be aware of it.

stylesheet":
Ok, here's Dreamweaver doing it again, driving me around the
bend. On one
particular site of mine, DW8 has suddenly decided not to see
the site
stylesheet, even though:
a) the files display fine in a browser and on the server
(www.eurocall-
languages.org)
b) the CSS link ref in the template page headers are fine
(otherwise (a)
would fail)
c) all my other sites are ok
I've just been moved to a new PC, from a previous PC where I
was using DW
MX. I exported my site definitions from MX as .ste files. I
imported them
into DW8 on the new machine. They're all in the Site Manager,
and the
settings haven't changed. The pages in those sites all appear
fine, apart
from this one site.
The HTML is fine. The CSS is fine. What's not fine is that DW
won't find
the CSS file. If I open a template, press Shift-F11 and link
to the CSS
file, which is sitting in the site root directory, when I
press Ok I get
the really helpful error message:
"An unexpected error occurred while trying to read
style-sheet
information"
If I try to preview the template file in a browser, I get the
even more
helpful error:
"An invalid argument was encountered"
Searching for either error message in the DW Knowledge Base
returns
nothing. The DW installation is fresh as a daisy off the
disk, and the
machine is a spanking new XP machine with nothing complicated
on it.
If I manually open the template file in a browser, though, it
displays
fine. So, there's something in the DW code on the pages in
this
particular site that DW8 is rejecting, even though DW MX had
no problems
with it at all (hell, the site was created in MX).
I would be grateful if someone could point me to possible
solution(s),
other than doing what I keep threatening to do, which is to
go back to
hard-core HTML/CSS coding in a programmer's file editor. The
only thing
that keeps me using DW is the site management capabilities
;-\. There are
times, happily not as frequent as they used to be, when the
perversity of
DW and its incomprehensible error messages drive me to
serious mouse and
keyboard abuse.

I put this into a new page -
body {font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 2.9em;
/* Background colour commented out to allow Javascript
background colour changer to work, as it can't overrule the
stylesheet.
bgcolor set in page <body> tag.*/
/* background: #fff;*/
color: #0F0;
and text that I enter on that page is huge and green. What's
the problem?

Podcasting URL font bug discovered...

Hello folks,
I have discovered a bug in GarageBand while video podcasting. When you create a chapter marker that uses a URL name & link - the final export to disk or send to iWeb messes up the URL font style, font size and font colour. When inspecting the final podcast in iWeb or Quicktime Pro the URL font is dark blue in colour and too small to see or click on.
What is the purpose of this podcast feature if the URL font can't be edited ?
The same holds true for still pictures from iPhoto as well if used in a podcast.
If anyone from the GarageBand development team could discuss this problem that would be much appreciated - time is of the essence, no pressure...

Thank you WarriorAnt for your shout out.
Since you've been around the GB forum for awhile maybe you have some constructive advice to share with my specific question. I hoped at least 2 people have tried the podcasting feature in GB 3.0 and perhaps have experienced the problems I outlined in my first post.
Drop me a line if you come up with a solution or two.

Annoying font bug in EM

Good morning,
I am pretty sure this isn't the right place to report bugs but, since I do not have a Metalink account, hopefully someone that is an Oracle paying customer will do what I cannot.
EM has a simple but very annoying bug: it does not use a fixed font to display the output logs (of a job for instance). This results in output like this: (which looks even worse as a post in the forum than it does in the EM window)
>
File Status Marked Corrupt Empty Blocks Blocks Examined High SCN
1 OK 0 13301 88325 1458980
>
which gives the impression that there are 13301 corrupt blocks in the file examined (not the kind of thing a DBA wants to see). I doubt I have to point out how cumbersome reading this unformatted output is.
However, using a fixed font, the very same output would look like this:
File Status Marked Corrupt Empty Blocks Blocks Examined High SCN
1 OK 0 13301 88325 1458980 which now shows that there are 13301 empty blocks (much better news than before). The problem, as we all know is, EM is using a proportional font when it should be using a fixed font such as Courier New.
This trivial little bug substantially subtracts from the usefulness of EM to review logs.
Thank you for reporting this to the powers that can make it right,
John.

Dear 440bx - 11gR2,
Unfortunately i have no idea about the problem that you have experienced. However;

That is forbidden. Please see the user rights assigments of the Oracle. Metalink is a paid area and can only be used for those who have already paid the price.
People here can only help you based on their previous experiences but they simply can not post, paste or share the articles of the Metalink.
Please bear in mind for next time but i have the feeling that you already know that issue, don't you? :)

How can I fix Lion system font bugs?

I've recently updated to Snow Leopard to do an uptade to Lion. Already, once the Snow was installed the system font was altered to the one in the image at the botom. I thought installing Lion would do the trick and it would fix the bug, but it didn't. It's been impossible to find articles with the same topic.
I went to Genius and all the could tell me was to erase all my machine and start all over again. Yet, I want to get another input before.
Can anyone help?
Thanks!

Edit the source doucment, or install the exact font that you are missing.

Interface Builder ( IB ) font bug?

I noticed in ib, if i choose arial and then bold face (for labels, titles etc) it displays the text properly and is the proper bold. but when i deploy the app the text is gone, what i find wierd is in ib if you choose fonts that are not on iphone the text itself looks like it is the default font (eg. it doesnt let you use none iphone fonts)
so is this a bug with arial bold only?
i also tried to choose regular arial and then on the interface builder top menu i choose font >> bold and it turns the text bold, and it still doesnt display when compiled..
It makes no sense to me to have ib to do interface stuff when something like simple font choosing is buggy and/or not properly supported.

Human interface guidelines mandating a certain degree of consistency in appearance make a lot of sense, as would the fact that you cannot use fonts which are not available on the target system.
Arial is a horrible ripoff of Helvetica anyway.

Safari - Large Font Bug?

Since upgrading to Mavericlks Ive had an anoying bug in safari.
I use a larger than normal font , but if you use the mouse swipe to go back to a previous page the font reverts to the default normal size.

Flash pro + recent windows update = HUGE FONT BUG!

Hi,
I jsut wanted to share my recent pain in you know where. Last week around wednesday Flash IDE (cs 5.5) stopped to display most custom fonts. I could create a text field (talking about the classic text field) and put a text there, however If i chose:
- custom font (e.g. Futura, Helvetica...)
- any anti-aliasing method (readbility, animation, custom)
then the font was not visible at all in Flash IDE and even in published SWF.
So after a day of reinstalling both software and system (Windows 7 pro x64) I found out that the problem is caused by recent windows update. Since I installed clean system and disabled automatic system update everything wokrs fine. This happend to my colleague as well with flash cs5 and Windows 7 pro x64.
So to all of you flash people there - I just wanted to ask if you experienced same problem, so we know if this is just individual problem or common thing. For now I can only recommend not to download recent windows update until this issue is solved (if there is any).
For adobe guys - did you get any report about this?

check the many posts (and solutions) on this issue:

Arrrgggh! cfdocument font bug?

I'm using cfdocument to create a pdf of a very simple html
page that uses html entities (greek and math/scientific).
Slight edits to the html completely change which entities (if
any) actually show up in the PDF, at one time or another, virtually
every character has shown up, so I believe the server font supports
the characters.
There seems to be no method to the madness. I have a test
script running at CrystalTech (
http://67.199.32.119/testpdf.cfm)
that shows the html in a textarea, and creates a PDF if you submit
it. If you try it, and then remove the table rows that contain
entities that don't appear in the PDF and try again, you'll see a
whole different set of entities don't show up! Whaaaat?
Has anyone got an idea what's going on? I desperately need
these entities in the PDF.

I'm not sure if Times New Roman has all of the characters you
need. If you specify "Lucida Sans Unicode", your server creates the
correct PDF file.
When I used Time New Roman in the CSS, the PDF file had
Batang (a Korean font), Helvetica and TimesNewRomanPSMT. I'm not
sure if this is a bug in cfdocument or what, but you can try
creating a CSS class for your symbols if you do not want your whole
document displayed in Lucida.
Funny thing is that I have Lucida Sans Unicode installed in
my Fonts folder but IE 7 doesn't display 20 or so of your symbols.
Firefox is fine.

Weird font bug in CS4 with 321impact

Hi,
Being using the font 321Impact for a lot of work in Photoshop etc. works fine. Just come to use the font in InDesign (cs4) but
when ever I type words like 'confidence' or 'finding' the f and i characters disappear! This only happens with the letter combination
fi and fl - this is driving me nuts! The font works perfectly well in everything else and the characters don't disppear. I thought it
was a display issue, but the characters print out missing. Instead of 'confidence' it comes out 'con dence' with the letters missing.
Here's the link to the font:
http://www.fontstock.net/15103/321impact.html
Has anyone one else had a similar problem and knows how to fix it!
Many thanks in advance

The font has no ligature support apparently. Turn them off.
