Font formatting differs in IE and FF

Hi,
If I make changes to the font color in a page it displays OK
in IE but not in FF. Please see attached link for an example:
http://www.originindustries.com/Assets/Toshaplio2.htm.
I am sure I am making a simple mistake but I am not an experienced
designer. Hope someone can help.
Andrew

don't worry, you'll probably pick it up as you go along. i
only started
using css about a year ago, and i look back at some of the
first stuff i
did and it's horrendous! but it's to be expected when you're
teaching
yourself something like this. you're not going to be perfect
at it from
the start, and you'll get better with practice. just keep at
it!
and make sure you learn as much as you can about html so that
you'll be
able to look at your code and see what the problem is when
stuff like
this happens.
good luck!

  • How to find a word with different font format (e.g. italic and regular in one word)

    Hi people,
    I need to find a word, prefferably using GREP or simple Find/Replace tool.
    Sometimes, when I get source text to paste into InDesign, some word's format is messed up. First letter is italic and rest is regular or otherwise (or any other font format). How can I find such words automatically. For example:
    Example
    would really appreciate any help.

    Hi,
    If I had to do that, using Multi-Find/Change, I would play it like:
    With MFC, I create a set of the 2 regex. So, one click to fix your problem.

  • Embedded fonts display differently in mx and spark

    Hi there,
    My apologies if this is an known issue but I have not been able to find any posts describing this problem. As the title of the discussion describes the problem I see is that when embedding the same font for spark and mx components they display differently to the point of making the application look sloppy. I created a small app to illustrate the problem:
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <s:Application
        minWidth="955" minHeight="600"
        xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
        xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"
        xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx">
        <fx:Declarations>
            <!-- Place non-visual elements (e.g., services, value objects) here -->
        </fx:Declarations>
        <fx:Style>
    @namespace s "library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark";
    @namespace mx "library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx";
    @font-face
    src:url("arial.ttf");
    fontFamily: arialCFF;
    embedAsCFF: true;
    @font-face {
    src:url("arial.ttf");
    fontFamily: arialNoCFF;
    embedAsCFF: false;
    advancedAntiAliasing: false;
    s|Label
    fontFamily: arialCFF;
    fontSize: 20px;
    mx|Label
    fontFamily: arialNoCFF;
    fontSize: 20px;
    </fx:Style>
        <s:layout>
            <s:VerticalLayout
                paddingLeft="10"
                paddingTop="10"/>
        </s:layout>
        <s:Label text="This is a label that uses spark"/>
        <mx:Label text="This is a label that uses mx"/>
    </s:Application>
    I used the Arial.ttf font I found in my mac, though I have also tried with courier new and even the myriad web pro provided with an example in the SDK. Also I have tried with SDKs 4.1, 4.5 and 4.5.1. I have played with the value of advancedAniAliasing as well. Regardless of the combination I will still see differences such as this:
    Is this a known issue? Any solutions at hand?
    Thanks in advance for the help!!

    Hi there,
    Thanks for the quick reply. I was able to make fonts display correctly after hacking the display of some components (mx.controls.FormItem for example) however I did notice a whole buch of runtime warnings that showed up as a result of the workaround such as:
    warning: incompatible embedded font 'arialCFFFont' specified for mx.core::UITextFormat. This component requires that the embedded font be declared with embedAsCFF=false.
    TextFieldAutomationHelper:captureSelection() - 'selectionBeginIndex' is not implemented in FTETextField.
    And in some cases for components I do not even use:
    warning: incompatible embedded font 'arialCFFFont' specified for mx.controls::TextInput (TextInput1967) . This component requires that the embedded font be declared with embedAsCFF=false.
    Any ideas on how to avoid this noise or do we have to live with this?

  • Google fonts showing differently on Safari and Chrome

    Hi there,
    I have a question about using Google Fonts or Websafe fonts. For a website I'm using Questrial as a font.
    I'm aware the font is showing different on a webbrowser than in the preview of Muse, but spaces appear to be bigger in Google Chrome than Safari. This means the graphic design I made isn't showing correct on Google Chrome. See attachments! The weird thing is it's showing perfectly right on a Google Chrome App on tablet. It's just a desktop problem.
    The site is built in a older version of Muse and I just downloaded the latest version, but it's still appearing wrong on Google Chrome.
    Is there a solution for this problem? Thanks.

    If things doesn't improve, try (A) and (B)
    (A) Reset iPad
    Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
    Note: Data will not be affected.
    (B) Reset all settings
    Settings>General>Reset>Reset all settings
    Note: Data will not be affected but settings will be reset.

  • Why do fonts looks different between Photoshop and devexpress winform

    Hi,
    I am creating a mock ups in PSD using font Verdana 10
    when the developers using the same font on DevExpress win-forms the results looks extreme different.
    can you help me understand why this is happening?
    Thanks a lot,
    Anat

    The glyphs are described by mathematical functions, there is no ambiguity if it is the same font.
    If the text is immediately embedded as a raster graphic (opposed to keeping text as vector in
    an exported PDF), then it is impossible to represent the accurate shape by only few pixels
    (10pt, 72ppi: very few pixels; 10pt, 288ppi; four times more in both directions).
    Therefore Photoshop can apply anti-aliasing: None, Sharp, Crisp, Strong, Smooth. The names
    don't say much, but the appearance is different. You may try which mode is your best choice.

  • Why won't the font formatting options appear in the format bar in full screen mode?

    The font formatting options (bold, italic, and underline, and left, center, right, and justified) do NOT appear in the format bar in full screen mode.

  • How to set different font for numbers in headings and TOCs

    Hi,
    I've noticed some people use a different font for numbers in headings and TOCs to get some extra magic. Is there any way to automate such use of fonts in the paragraph styles?
    Oh, and any suggestions on what fonts would be good for numbers?
    Thanks!

    I was merely continuing on the original theme -- any digit in any character style. It was only later revealed that (a) the OP needed old style figures, and (b) those were available in his font from the start.
    The negative lookahead is the answer to his question (copied in full now)
    Based on the above InDesignSecrets tutorial, does anyone know what to do if some of the numbers end with a dot or a comma?
    Like the Norwegian date format: 13. mai 2009
    Or the Norwegian way of pricing items: 2900,-
    and my example shows it can be done, but with an added caveat. If digits are to be set in red, using the exceptions the OP asks for, my example sentence will come out as
    "Think of a number between 1 to 10, but don't use 9."
    rather than the (here) intended
    "Think of a number between 1 to 10, but don't use 9."

  • Problems exporting rollover 'states' into Dreamweaver, and loss of font formats

    Hi
    I am quite new to Fireworks and am having a little difficulty with some aspects of it.
    I am building a miltiple page site, and am exporting using the the 'export CSS and Images' option from Fireworks CS4 to Dreamweaver CS4.
    I have applied some 'swap image behaviour' to the links on the Master Page.
    However When I try to export to Dreamweaver I get the following message:
    "Only sliced images from the current state will be included in this export. Hotspot and behaviour attributes will be ignored."
    Obviously I want the states (swap image) functionality to be exported so that the javascript rollovers work. Any ideas how to resolve this?
    Also, when I export the pages into Dreamweaver, I have noticed that the font formatting is lost e.g. <h1> format style etc So an orange <h1> font title, with black outline, will not retain that formatting in Dreamweaver (it actually renders as white, which is the same as the <p> font elements.). I do know how to alter the CSS to render a different colour in Dreamweaver: but its the character outline that I cannot reproduce by manipulating the CSS (I don't know how to anyway....).
    Also, once a 'Master' page has been created, will all other pages within the document automatically inherit the functions and settings as per the Master Page. Or do I need to link each page to the Master Page in order for them to inherit its functionality and settings? I'm particuarly thinking about the states/rollover issue again here i.e. Will I need to set under/over states on each individual page or do I just need to set it once on the Master page?
    Thanks for your help.

    Q1:  There. Is no way to resolve this in Fireworks. You'll have to export the other states manually and build the rollovers in dreamweaver.
    Q2:  Again, *if* there us a widely supported CSS option fir text outlining you have tomanually apply it to the code in Dreamweaver.
    Q3:  Hyperlinks and graphics on the master page should be applied to all child pages.
    Fireworks is not a true web page editor. Keep this in mind. It is a graphics tool fulirst and foremost. The CSS and HTML features are not nearly as robust as Dreamweaver.   Hope this helps

  • Font differs from Linux and Windows ?

    Hi, i just want to ask, are fonts different from windows and linux in applet. I use a standard courier font.
    For example, if i make an applet with courier font texts in linux, and make the texts wrap themselves, they will run ok in linux. But if i run the compiled applet in windows, the wrapped text somewhow got truncated.
    But if i compile the applet in windows, it will look ok in linux and windows.
    I've tried replacing my courier fonts in my /usr/java/jdk/jre/lib/fonts/cour*.ttf with the cour*.ttf from c:\windows\fonts with no effects .. Applets compiled and run ok in linux doesnt work in windows. They must be compiled in windows to run ok in both.
    Why is that ?
    Does the compilation use the fonts in the jdk lib or the system fonts ?
    I'm so confused T_T

    How do I get Mac OS 10.4.4 and Word X for Mac to see
    all the characters in the Word for PC document
    formatted in Times New Roman?
    There's no way with Office X, which can't do Unicode Greek. You need to upgrade to Office 2004 which is Unicode-savvy and installs in your Mac the same Times New Roman with Greek, Cyrillic, Hebrew, and Arabic which is used by WinXP. An alternative might be AbiWord or NeoOffice/J.

    What do you mean by "different"? (In our
    experience, Oracle html output has too many
    columns, which are not visible in the
    browser but are obvious in Excel.)
    We build our own html programmatically, so
    that Excel matches the browser more closely.

    I just updated my MAC operating system and when I went to open a recent document in numbers, the document that opened had none of my data and was formatted differently.  Can I get my document with all my information back?

    I suggest the easy stuff first:
    1) quite Numbers and restart Numbers
    2) reboot the computer
    After that try opening the same document in another user space

  • Font issue - in all my replies, sent and forwarders the font is different size and style.

    font issue - in all my replies, sent and forwarders the font is different size and style. Sometimes it changes while I am typing in mid sentence. I tried to adjust using tools, options, advanced. But nothing seems to stick. How can I make all emails have same font style and size?

    I do not know how up to date this is, but there are menus listed in how the message displays when you compose and open an email. [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Font_settings_in_Thunderbird#Message_display] That may help you set the preferences.

    I'm often having issues with clients not seeing or being able to open attachments, font formatting changes (on the pc end) and the inability to use HTML signatures to promote our company brand.

    I imagine your clients must be using Outlook, which is seriously broken when it comes to e-mail standards, especially HTML e-mail. You can work around the issues with Outlook by only sending plain-text e-mails and making sure that, in the Edit -> Attachments menu, the last two options are checked. Unfortunately, that means that HTML signatures are out.
    If you need something with a fancy layout, either attach a PDF file to the e-mail or include a link to a website in the e-mail.

  • BIP11g chart formatting font size at Title Llabel and Axis

    We have recently migrated from 10g to 11g,
    and we noticed that after migration the graphs have many differences.
    specially with the font size at Title , label and axis.
    Even though we have specified font size , it always seems to take its own font size.
    Some times the font are very very small.
    We also tried autoLayout="AL_NEVER" but it also dont work,
    not only that the with autoLayout="AL_NEVER, the graph moves very close to the title.
    How can we force the font size right for Title , label and axis.
