!!!! Font Challenge !!!!

Hi all
Due to some Reason i don't want to import Fonts to my Main
SWF File. Instead of that i would like to have every font as a
seperate SWF file, i will get this list from Server (PHP/CFM).
using this SWF Files i need to select the font for my Dynamic
Text Field.
Any Idea Would be really Appreciated and would be helpful for
me.
Merry Christmas!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Much KGLAD.
This is What i am searching for.....
Thank you So Much

PSPremier.suit and Impress Font Challenge

I have recently installed Snow Leopard and the 10.6.1 upgrade, and am having issues with smashed text in applications like Keynote '09. Any text using fonts from the PSPremier.suit collection all have this characteristic.
Anyone got any ideas how to fix this issue without simply ditching these fonts, which are used in hundreds of presentations?
Thanks

If I understand correctly, Keynote sees these as two different fonts, and you want to change the usage from the old to the new.
Disable the old font in Font Book (*Edit > Disable ...*, or use the checkbox at the bottom of the window).
Now, when you open the document, Keynote should present you with a Warnings sheet. View the warnings, and you should see it list *Missing Font*. Select the *Missing Font* warning, and you should have a *Replace Font* popup at the bottom of the warnings window. Use that to choose the new font.
You'll still need to deal with every presentation, but not every slide therein.
On the other hand, if the fonts are truly identically named, and you simply have a newer version, then disabling the old font ought to be all you need do.

Font problem - a real challenge...

Hey. I have completely updated my mac.
Using Safari, sybols font or some other greek-letter font has hijacked the browser. English words, spelt with coreesponding greek letters. In preferences, everything is fine, and no its not set to symbols. Formatted texts, ie links display fine. I disabled "web" in my font book. This displays properly, but then i dont have fonts for web sites. The problem is not site specific... its not a site hoax or anything like that, its on my side.
kk so now text edit is doing the same thing. i opened a plain text file, and greek symbols. Further, i cant continue with my language studies, because the keyboard viewer is showing mainly the squares (missing or anavailable symbols) for non english input, and the greek letters/sybols for english alphabet.
-> Patches are up to date, its not one of those news-peddled vunerabilities.
-> Its my computer...
-> I would prefer to aviod deleting my fonts, unless absolutely nesseccary.
-> I have been searching for solutions for a while, the closest thing i found was "garbled text problems"
ANYWAY good luck trying to resolve this issue. Id appreciate any help you can offer.

It sounds like you have installed a junk font that has a common name (Helvetica, Times, etc) and replaces Latin by Greek or Math or IPA symbols. You have to find it and remove it. It is most likely in Home/Library/Fonts. You should also be able to see in the Sample pane of Fontbook that this font has the junk instead of abdcefg, etc. Times Phonetic is a common culprit -- make sure you dump this right off if you have it.

Keyboard Viewer has a place to set the font. Have you tried different settings?

One or two will have to go I think.
Before searching for fonts, clean your font caches with FontFinagler (use google to find it) to make sure it is not just a cache problem.

How do I change the color of font in a fillable form in Adobe Reader? How can I check if the writer of the document has given permission to edit color and not just add text?

How do I change the color of font in a fillable form in Adobe Reader? How can I check if the writer of the document has given permission to edit color and not just add text? Please help! I'm technologically challenged.

Most forms (99% or more) are created for simple text input, where you cannot change anything.
The creator of the form could allow Rich Text input (which allows you to change font, text size, color, etc.), but frankly I have never seen such a form, and I wouldn't know how they look. But I'm sure they would show some kind of controls to alter the text appearance.

Font Not Appearing Correctly

I've had a font collection Mrs. Eaves for years. It works fine in every application. It is suddenly, for a reason I cannot fathom, not working with pages. Some of the fonts in the collection display the wrong characters. The font files are on the fonts folders, every other application I've tried displays them fine. I've tried trashing and reinstalling the fonts. I've cleaned caches. I've repaired permissions. What else can I do? This font is very important for my work.

I'm curious that this is not automatically possible since, even under the old Type1 PS font tables glyphs were named as well as just given a number.
There is a first principle in information technology: You can automatically audit whether or not a data structure is present, but you cannot automatically audit whether its meaning is correct or incorrect.
(Among other things, this iprinciple is stated in the patent for heuristics to reclaim character information which Adobe has licenced from PDFLib for PDF/A.)
The simple set theory at the basis of this is that Interpress and PostScript were both designed as glyph encoding models and not as character encoding models.
Harrington and Buckley in their 1988 to Interpress explain that the design allows several character sets with incompatible constitutencies to be imaged simultaneously.
For the RIP to process and draw glyphs it has to have an identification scheme of sorts, and that scheme could not be a character encoding prior to ISO-IEC 10646-1:1993.
PostScript glyph identifiers were initially regulated by Adobe and Linotype, but whether or not you could get from the glyph identifiers back to the character information was of no importance because the character information was not unified and thus could not in principle serve as support for an internationalised search architecture.
In 1989 when Warnock announced in the New York Times that the aim was to distribute a document world wide in wholly digital form, the commercial and mathematical challenge was to turn Adobe glyph names into a surrogate character superset. This way incompatible character constitutencies could index into the surrogate superset and character information recovered.
In 1991 when Warnock announed in the New York Times that search support was to arrive in Carousel, the Adobe Type 1 Specification and the Apple TrueType 1 Specification had already been published in the summer of 1991, and the Apple and Microsoft had already made it clear that the OS market wanted a character encoding model instead of a glyph encoding model.
From there it went to bits, Adobe pressing for more and more type designers to move to the Type 1 format in order to try as best as possible to maintain control of the glyph identifiers, Apple and Microsoft pressing in the opposite direction where in the intelligent font model character codes and public and font-independent while glyph codes are private and font-dependent.
By April 1992 when FOGRA Forschungsgesellschaft Druck in München held a conference on the direction of development in professional prepress, Adobe in a telecommunications appearance claimed that 16,000 products were already on the market in the Type 1 font program dictionary format and that Carousel was imminent in 1993 (per online article by Chief Editor Kurt Wolf of Deutsche Drucker).
The problem with this is that the PostScript interpreter has no information (none at all) about the source character set, it only has information about the glyph identifiers in the Type 1 font program dictionary. It doesn't need the characters in any case, because they were not consistent identifiers until Adobe adopted UTF16 short character identifiers as glyph identifiers in 1998.
In my opinion, the technical writing for all this was terrible from the beginning, those who tried from the outside were not given half a chance, and what came out from inside was not but waffling at best (and at worst it was deliberate disinformation).

Font smoothing, font sizing, sub-pixel tuning, OS X vs Windows

I have a query regarding font the font smoothing implementation in OS X.
Having just come from the Windows world (using ClearType) naturally comparisons will be made. I am trying to get fonts looking as readable as possible on my Mac. I have 19" LCD connected via DVI so would expect no issues there. It seems difficult to get fonts looking... crisp. I am starting from the basis of using font smoothing across the board as recommended. Turn off smoothing is set to font size 8 or smaller.
I note with respect to tuning of font smoothing (anti-aliasing) that there is not a 'fine tuning' tool like as made available on Windows...
http://www.microsoft.com/typography/cleartype/tuner/Step1.aspx
for the Mac. At least I can't find anything Googling. And I am not thinking of TinkerTool as that is not a fine tuner. The Windows ClearType tuner can really make a noticeable difference by adjusting the sub-pixel tuning. Is there any equivalent tool/configuration option available for Macs?

You must have extremely good vision to be able to
tell the enhacement made by ClearType on XGA or
better displays. I wish my eyesight is as good as
yours.
Well by your own admission you must be half blind, and I think you must be if you can't see the difference between - and let's be precise about this - no anti-aliasing vs. anti-aliasing +- sub-pixel rendering. Whether on Windows and/or OS X. There is.
Subpixel rendering is a trick used when resolution of
displays are challenged and small font readability is
crucial.
Today, the only place this makes sense is on
cell phones when you are trying to render small type
like a webpage.
I believe the website links I posted show that I have a reasonable grasp of what sub-pixel rendering is, that was not the purpose of my question. Also, actually, you are incorrect when you state that sub-pixel rendering is relevant/necessary only for small fonts. The exact opposite is true - usually sub-pixel rendering (including in OS X) is turned off for small fonts because it tends to make them more unreadable.
On desktop displays today at XGA or greater resolution,
the tradeoff in enhancing a bit in resolution is
outweighed by the added computation cycles needed to
filter the entire display so the eye sees "grey" on
average rather than red or green or blue.
Well you better rush and tell Apple to rip it out of OS X... because they seem to disagree with you as both anti-aliasing and sub-pixel rendering are included, and encouraged to be used, in OS X!
I'm sorry, but your statements are just plainly wrong and unconsidered.
Back to my - still unanswered, factual and valid question. The implementation of anti-aliasing + sub-pixel rendering in OS X does not appear, and I am stating this unbiasedly, to be as good as it could be (as I have seen in Windows). BTW this is not solely my finding as a number of very experienced Mac users have pointed out:
Here...
http://www.michelf.com/weblog/2006/subpixel-antialiasing-achilles-heel/
and here...
http://www.betalogue.com/2006/01/24/pages-20-does-not-fix-font-smoothing-issue/
and here...
http://mjtsai.com/blog/2006/02/04/font-smoothing-in-pages/
I gather from the replies I have received thus far, and from research on the Internet, that there is currently no way - going into Unix config files or by some utility - to address this issue. Hopefully it will be improved in a later version of OS X.
BTW - this does not stop me loving my new Mac!

'thin' fonts on an external monitor

Hi,
I am using an x200 with an external LG monitor 1680 x 1050, 32bit with 120DPI font. The text seems very 'thin / weak' and is a challenge to read. Is there away of 'blackening' the text to make it nore legible ?

plug in your external monitor via the s-video and confirm its been recognised (turn it on ... you should see a second OS X desktop dislayed on it). go to your apple menu > system preferences and choose the displays pane. make sure you choose a display size that best represents your external moniters dimensions, and a refresh rate that your monitor supports.
now, with all that done, launch FCP ... it should recognise your 2nd display, which should appear in the list at View > Video Playback
do you see a list of playback devices there? if not, tell us what you do see in that list. try choosing View > Refresh A/V Devices, and then check the list again

Missing fonts in FrameMaker 9 even after installing Adobe Type Manager

Hi,
We are using Formata family fonts in our templates. We import the templates and don't see the font family.
We then installed the Adobe Type Manager and tried reimporting the template. No results.
We then edited the makers.ini file and added the Formata font in DefaultFamily, still we see the font as missing in the Paragraph Desiger and Catalog.
Any help in this regard is appriciated.
The FrameMaker version is 9 on Windows XP.
Thanks,
Mrini

Hi Mrini,
I need not the ATM on Windows XP or higher to install a font.
1. Open the \Windows\Fonts folder
2. Drag and Drop the font file otf, ttf or pfm (for ps fonts).
3. Then the font is available for Windows and for the applications.
4. Test it with Word and FrameMaker to choose this new font.
Additional information for FrameMaker and the maker.ini:
FrameMaker can differ Weight, Angles, Variations, Windows Weight and Angles only.
Indeed you can define the correct Family Name with information to the Windows font name and information.
That isn't longer important if you use FrameMaker on Windows platform, but it can be a great challenge
if you also work with Adobe InDesign.
InDesign works default with the correct Font Family name with Weight, Angles, Variations.

List fonts used in a document, search by font.

Help! I cannot find a way to list, by name, of the fonts used (past tense) in a document. Like in the document properties: where the word and character count is.
Example: The author used Arial, Arial Condensed and OCR A in her document. I would like to see a list of three font names. If I have (or don't have) those fonts is outside the scope of this request.
Simply smashing the styles of a document and then restylng by hand is not working so well for me. Most of the documents used manual formatting instead of styles too!
Second: I can search and replace text if it had a font applied to it, but I cannot specify the font to search on. ANY font will be match and changed to the 'replace' style. Any solution?
Thanks!

HT5661 I just dowloaded iOS7 to my phone. Unfortunately, it does not allow me to increase my font size beyond 12 or 13 size. Is there a way to get a bigger font size?

Any ideas regarding the font size challenge with the new iOS7 program? On my old phone I could set my font size to 14 or bigger. Doing so allows me to read my text without having to use my classes.

I'm not aware of this being a enhancement in SQL Server 2012.
To help you in the meantime, did you realise that you can filter the Stored Procedures and Tables that appear in Object Explorer? if you right click on these nodes in Object Explorer and select Filter | Filter Settings, you can create a filter to limit
the list of Stored Procedures and Tables that appear in their respective lists.
Example 1
If you were looking for a stored procedure called usp_HardToFind, you would enter the following:
Property = Name
Operator = Contains
Value = Hard (or dome other value you're looking for)
This would list all stored procedures with a name containing Hard
Example 2
If you were looking for a tabled called ComplexTableName, you would enter the following:
Property = Name
Operator = Contains
Value = Complex (or dome other value you're looking for)
This would list all tables with a name containing Complex

Looking for a web font - advice please

Hi, I know this isn't a DW question, but I'm hoping somebody might be able to guide me.
I'm looking for a font (preferably on google fonts) that resembles Edwardian Script. If anybody knows off the top of their head a font that is similar, could you advise me please?
Thanks.

Most hobbyists and bloggers sites could probably fly under the radar with unlicensed fonts. But commercial web sites could be in for a whole heap of litigation woes. It's not worth the risk for something so trivial.

Some bully boys will try anything but people have to stand for their rights. I am currently in dispute with easy Jet because I have registered one website with name like easy XXXXX. Now they tried to bully me for using the word easy and I challenged them to sue me. Their solicitors wrote to me and intimidating me and I won the first round. They are appealing and so the case continues. The court has decided that I should not promote the website until the appeal is heard but in the meantime, I have notified easy jet the revenue I am losing because of this restrictions. The court is aware of this and if I win the case, I shall be entitled to millions of pounds in compensation due to lost revenues.

Remove Bogus Font from PDF?

I create the quarterly PDF of Hinduism Today magazine, on Macs, in InDesign, individual articles are exported to PDF as spreads and assembled in Acrobat to produce a single PDF of the entire magazine: nothing new there...
Now, my final PDF is showing a "rogue" copy of a font we tinkered with ourselves "
"RelatoD,Bold" as TrueType, but not embedded;
we have others "RelatoD-Bold" all of which are embedded
If I open all the source PDF (individual articles) all versions of RelatoD-Bold appear as embedded and I cannot spot the document containing "RelatoD,Bold"
My outside shop Mac beta testers say the PDF works perfectly. Acrobat reader on Mac is forgiving. I don't think the font is even in use. But Windows users are getting an ugly font cannot be found or created message. If they dismiss that dialog, the PDF opens and appears fine. There is not a single instance of the "rogue" font showing any visible change in the PDF document.
Obviously I need to track this down, but our production schedule is running behind. Is there way I can simply "zap" delete the rogue font in Acrobat Professional? In the PDF? I don't think we will see a single problem in the document. This seems to be some kind of font "artifact/gremlin" that was introduced, but we don't know how, or from where... and the R & D to track it down is going be "painful" and time consuming.

Larry, excellent, thanks for reminding me of that option. We have done that before when the document starts to show signs of "wierdness" and looks like it is about to explode (smile) export .inx and rebuild before you lose it completely.
The challenge will be : which document from all the articles carries the rogue font? I have no way to analyze it.
hmm. I guess I could boot Parallels and then open each individual PDF (made from individual articles) until I found it.
Meanwhile, I was overly jubilant yesterday. After I ran the PDF thru PDF optimizer, looking at Document Properties I did not see the roque font, I thought Ah ha! Solved! I then pushed an update to our web server, sent the URL to Windows beta test group and by the afternoon they were telling me the PDF *still* threw the warning dialog about missing font.
At our staff meeting (we are mac fanatics here) we thought not a big deal, in the Windows world users are faced with nasty dialogs all the time, I won't have time to go solve this before we go live. Our only regret is being unable to program the dialog box to say "Sorry cannot find or create RelatoD-Bold. It works on Apple. Get a Mac!"

Fonts in FCP

Fonts in the newest FCP are still problematic. Only truetype versions can be used, not postscript, and in the truetypefonts the built-in kerning is not taken literally, the letters are placed a bit more crampy. Boris is not correct too, so I have to make titles in Photoshop which knows how to handle fonts properly.
The silly thing is that DVD Pro in the same bundle uses postscript fonts just as they are intended, with the right spacing and correct kerning...

...Only truetype versions can be used, not postscript...
There are several utilities out there that will convert a Postscript Type 1 face into TrueType. This is what I do when I absolutely need a Postscript font in FCP or DVDSP.
I use an old copy of FontMonger in OS 9, but I'm sure you can find a more modern font conversion util with a little research.
Font management becomes a little challenging, but I have a special set in Fontbook named "TV Fonts" that I put all my TT duplicates into.
Then I only need to remember to turn them on and off as I go back and forth between "TV World" and "Graphic Design World."
No good util available for that, I'm afraid. Big orange post-it note on the corner of my monitor helps, though.
Oh yeah, make sure that neither FCP nor DVDSP is running when you add a new TT face. Actually, after you activate a new TT face in Font Book, I find it is a good Idea to restart or Logout/Login before attempting to use it in FCP or DVDSP.

Embedded font issues -- Flex not measuring properly

I started this out in one thread ( http://forums.adobe.com/thread/470702 ) and it has progressed into a new, bigger issue. I embedded fonts using the code below. Flex is not measuring them properly or the font I'm using is vertically challenged. I suspect the font I am embedding has different vertical spacing than the default font. I have determined the fonts are embedding by rotating the containers.
Here's an example of what I'm getting:
The right side radio button is the raw display (height works out to 23), the left side radio button I forced the height to 15. Both the radio buttons are set to exactly the same y coordinate. You can see the right hand text is not centered on the radio button. I don't want to go thru the hassle of adjusting every single component height to make the font look centered plus that's an ugly workaround.
I don't think there is anything wrong with my code nor do I think a font swf will help. I sure would like to know what's going on but it is beyond my understanding. Here's my thought. I like the default font the compiler uses when I DON"T embed fonts, looks like this:
I figure if I could embed this font, everything would work properly. I just don't where this font lives. The docs indicate the default font is _serif but it looks more like _sans to me. And I don't know the hierarchy for my platform.
So... Does anyone know either how to fix this measurement issue or where I can find THE True Type font or swf or something that Flex uses as a default so I could embed it?

First off, yes there was a correction to the left hand radio button. I forced the height of the button to be different and that seemed to help center things
After a bit of beating my head against the way, I decided to run a simpler test. I set up a case where I had default fonts side by side with embedded fonts. Since my default.css file had Verdana I decided to use a Verdana embedded font. I figured I could compare them directly and maybe play with advanced anti-aliasing at the same time. I've attached the files (change the txt extension to mxml)
The result was a somewhat of a surprise. I didn't realize that all text really wasn't centered on the component (eg radio button, checkbox) at my default size and below. I do see the small pixel shift, especially in the Button.
So... I have found the "real" font declaration in the defaults.css file, am seeing the small pixel shift with embedded fonts, that using advanced anti-aliasing can help on smaller text, and realized I have to be very careful where I use font sizes smaller than default. I'm guessing that the "perfect" default size on my system would be 12 since that appears what my Verdana.ttf font is based on. My defaults.css file has the font size set at 10. The inability to measure properly is exacerbated when the fonts are embedded.
Now the real question -- anyone have a clever fix?

!!!! Font Challenge !!!!
