FONT ISSUES! between 2 computers and 1 Mtn file

This a warning to all Motion 4 users, after troubleshooting for 2 hours between 2 computers (one not opening the file created in the other), it turns out that ONE of the typeface wasn't installed in the other machine, which cause Motion 4 to quit unexpectedly (I though a PNG file I was using was too big...)
SO if you're trying to open a mtn4 file onto an other machine, and it crashes on you, it could be a font issue!
Hopefully Apple will have a fix for it, especially after the 10 error reports I sent them
Cheers everyone!

If you go into System Preferences > Sharing, there is an option to share your Printer with other computers. I used to do this which allowed other computers to be able to print to my printer while connected to my Mac. However, you need to have the "host" Mac turned on for this to work. So, perhaps this might be a solution?
My last printer started having problems, so the current printer I have has an Ethernet port on it, so it is connected to the network, so any computer in the house can print to that printer, and I no longer need to have my main computer on so others can print to the printer now.

  • Font issue between PC and Mac. Options?

    Hi.
    I have been working for several months on a book that I have designed in InDesign. I was using the PC version of InDesign. I just purchased a new Macbook, and I am now beginning with a trial of InDesign for Mac.
    As soon as I tried to imported my .indd file into InDesign on my Mac, I encountered an issue with fonts. Most of the fonts that I had used in my design do not work on the Mac version. InDesign gave me the option to 'Change' to comparable fonts. I figured I would try to see how I can adjust the manuscript and make this work. I immediately encountered other issues (for e.g., Minion Pro is a font that I did manage to use with InDesign in Mac, but it would not let me use the Italics version of Minion Pro. It is important that a number of elements in my book be italics, so I need to have a font that offers the distinction (and ideally, would not make me go back in manually and re-italicize everything.)
    I spend about an hour or two researching this issue today. It seems there are a few options (including purchasing/downloading fonts and a few different software programs that handle that.) I would just like advice from those who navigated this issue on my best option/s.
    Specifically these are the fonts from my original design on my PC that are missing on the Mac version.
    Adobe Caslon Pro
    Adobe Caston Pro Bold
    Adobe Caslon Pro Italic
    Adobe Devangari Italic
    Adobe Garamond Pro
    Adobe Garamond Pro
    Adobe Garamond Pro Bold
    Adobe Garamond Pro Italic
    Constantia
    Constantina Italic
    Minion Pro Bold Cond
    Minion Pro Italic
    Palatino Linotype
    Palatino Linotype Italic
    If there is a free way to obtain these fonts and use them, that would be nice.  If I do obtain, or use replacements files that Mac supports, I forsee another issue: I may very well encounter the same issue down the line when I try to open my design on a PC, or if I send to the printer, and they use a PC. What about cross platform fonts that are supported by different system?
    Any advice on how to move forward would be appreciated.

    The first respondent indicated that when the design is made into a PDF, then the fonts are embedded and visible across platforms. Are there any situations I should be aware of in which this isn't the case? If that statement is true or generally true, that is good news, and will make me feel a lot more OK about this process.

  • Font issue between indesign and another application

    I'm having issues with some fonts used in indesign that are not found in another app.
    For example, Antihistory Regular is used in the indesign document but the other app is looking for Antihistory Book?

    It's CS4 6.0.3 on OSX.
    The other application is a web app in development.
    My guess now is Flash compiles the fonts and it sees Antihistory regular as Antihistory book and our website is expecting regular.

  • Font sizes between  Photoshop and Edge - Any Accurate conversion table?

    I have been trying to make sense of the font sizes between  Photoshop and Edge. It seems that the conversion tables I have found do not actually give the right numbers and I am wondering if there is a table from Adobe that would make it easy to have the right size rather than an approximation.
    I prefer to use text in Edge rather than Photoshop for many different reasons one being dynamic text.
    For example a font in Photoshop in a 780 x 475 image is 8pt - In Edge, according to conversion tables it should be 11 px but it is totally wrong. It needs to be closer to 30 px to be about the same.
    So, Adobe Team, any documentation on that?

    By the way, I have to correct the numbers but they still do not make too much sense. The artist gave me a 300 dpi file so of course the px size what wrong. After converting the file to 72 dpi, the font size happens to be 33.33 pt or 40 px which is now way too big in Edge.  It looks like the size my just be the same 33.33 pt would be 33.33 px. Is this correct?

  • Applet font problem between linux and windows

    I just want to share my experience in several project i've taken part.
    In some projects, where all are developed under linux environment (suse 9.2),
    we use jasper report for report generation and use the web applet for our clients to print.
    They print ok in linux env, with the netscape 7.1, courier 10 font and jvm 1.4.2_06b version.
    But when accessed from windows env, with the same browser and the same jvm version, the applet and the print out are different from those of lin env. The headers and footers are missing. When the we edit/lower the header and footer size at the jasper report file, then they appears @ the window env.
    So strange that the font handling between win and lin differ (still my assumption). I'vent been able to solve this problem totally since the client must stick with one OS else the print out will be different.
    Quite dissatisfied, coz i really think i could code once the report and run it anywhere in the applet and behaves in the same way.
    Could anybody help ? T-T
    Regards,
    Albert Gan

    hi!
    this is my first post and i would like to ask if how did you create the web applet printing. im totally new to java and i dont know where to start.
    i hope that you can guide me or give me some instructions. thanks in advance =)

  • How does one change the font size for folders and/or file lists in the Bookmarks Library?

    How does one change the font size for folders and/or file lists in the '''Bookmarks''' Library?
    Since the upgrade to version 9.0.1 of Firefox, the Bookmarks feature changes are confusing me. They seem to be confusing themselves as well. The list of bookmarks has changed. The font size is so small that my aging eyes cannot read it without fogging the screen with my breath. Some folders are out of alphabetical order (where I know they were previously good), and some are missing altogether (folders to which I frequently add references).
    As for missing or deranged files or folders, was there something that I should have done or now need to do to recover those after the upgrade (or before)?
    With regard to font size,
    1. there is no “Edit Bookmarks” or like option to edit the list in this version
    2. the “zoom” option in the “view” list of functions is greyed out when in “Show All Bookmarks” window
    3. expanding the browser window has no effect on font size
    4. “Preferences” settings for font size has no effect in that window either, including advanced settings
    5. “Help” offers none that I can find.
    Can any of you Help?!?

    Maybe this extension helps:

  • Diff between logical and physical file path

    Hi ,
    Could you please explain difference between logical and physical file path's and their importance in ABAP.
    Thanks and regards,
    shyla

    Hi
    The function module FILE_GET_NAME convert a logical path into its corresponding physical path.
    The advantage of using logical pathes within your applications is obivous:
    If you need to change the physical path you just adjust it within transaction FILE yet no changes are required to your application.
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp2005vp/helpdata/en/25/ab3a57df3b11d189fc0000e829fbbd/frameset.htm
    The file names that you use in ABAP statements for processing files are physical names. This means that they must be syntactically correct filenames for the operating system under which your R/3 System is running. Once you have created a file from an ABAP program with a particular name and path, you can find the same file using the same name and path at operating system level.
    Since the naming conventions for files and paths differ from operating system to operating system, ABAP programs are only portable from one operating system to another if you use the tools described below.
    To make programs portable, the R/3 System has a concept of logical filenames and paths. These are linked to physical files and paths. The links are created in special tables, which you can maintain according to your own requirements. In an ABAP program, you can then use the function module FILE_GET_NAME to generate a physical filename from a logical one.
    Maintaining platform-independent filenames is part of Customizing. For a full description, choose Tools ® Business Engineer ® Customizing, followed by
    Implement. projects ® SAP Reference IMG. On the next screen, choose Basis Components System Administration ® Platform-independent File Names.
    For a more detailed description of the function module FILE_GET_NAME, enter its name on the initial screen of the Function Builder and choose Goto Documentation. On the next screen, choose Function module doc.
    Another way of maintaining platform-independent filenames is to use the Transaction FILE. The following sections provide an overview of the transaction.
    To create a logical filename, choose Logical filename definition, client-independent from the Navigation group box in Transaction FILE, then choose New entries. You define logical filenames
    You can either define a logical filename and link it to a logical path (as displayed here), or you can enter the full physical filename in the Physical file field. In the latter case, the logical filename is only valid for one operating system. The rules for entering the complete physical filename are the same as for the definition of the physical path for the logical file. To display further information and a list of reserved words, choose Help.
    If you link a logical path to a logical file, the logical file is valid for all syntax groups that have been maintained for that logical path. The filename specified under Physical file replaces the reserved word  in the physical paths that are assigned to the logical path. To make the name independent of the operating system, use names that begin with a letter, contain up to 8 letters, and do not contain special characters.
    Save your changes.

  • Distinguishing between CSV and Excel file formats

    I am trying to distinguish between CSV and Excel files.   Most of the files I need to process are CSV, but some have been opened and re-saved in Excel format.  I know about the Excel toolbox available, but haven't used it yet. 
    I need to be able to open a spreadsheet file regardless of if it is in CSV or Excel format.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Here are two example files, one CSV and one Excel.  Both have .XLS file extensions. 
    Attachments:
    20-4-XLS.xls ‏21 KB
    20-5-CSV.xls ‏8 KB

    Hi Paul,
    I think the matter is not the extention (xls or csv or whatever) but the format of the data written in your file.
    To see what I mean, open the xls file you posted with notepad... What does it look like ?
    You have tobe sure of the format of the file you want to read so that you can develop an appropriate VI... if you want to be able to read different type of data format, do a test before reading the file and then use an appropriate routine for each format.
    Hope this helps you...
    BTW, to read the one named CSV, a simple "read from spreadsheet file" VI will do the job

  • Is it possible to share a sequence between computers and different projects?

    Is it possible to share a sequence between computers and different projects without copying the sequence, closing the project, opening the new project and pasting in the sequence. This workflow is to slow when it takes 40 minutes for Premierer Pro CC to load a 4tb project. Just this simple thing would take 80 minutes.

    Okey, I found out how to import the seaquens, it is actually possible to make that choice after you click to import seaquence. But the problem is i do not want to import the media again. I already have that media in the other projekt. And once importingit it is offline and when I want to delete it it want to remove things from the timeline defeting the purpus. Is there a way to get aroun the fact that the program wants to import the media with the timeline.
    The thing is that I want to editing on two computer. On the second computer I will edit just a few scenes that I will later bring back in to the big project that has all the material. I have been copying the material for a few scenes to another external drive and also copied the big projekt and then opened this on my laptop. Then I made all the missing material offline while the projekt found the existing material. I editid the material. Copied the projekt and opened it on my stationary editing computer and copied the timeline with the scene that I had been working on while the media was loading, then shut down the project and opend the old big projekt and pasted the timeline in to the project.
    Is there an easier way?
    It would be nice to be able to import the timeline (without importing the media) when I have the program opened. Since it takes 40 minutes for my media to load.

  • Compatibility issues between R12 and report builder 2.5

    Hi,
    I just want to know if there are issues between R12 and (Forms 4.5 and Reports 2.5)? I have been using 6i since I started in the oracle so I'm a little new to this.
    Thanks
    peopsquik

    As my understanding there is no issue for Forms 4.5 and Reports 2.5 with R12.
    You can develop report with Report 6i can be deployed with R12.You cannot use Forms 4.5, Reports 2.5 or Developer (Forms/Reports) 6i with Oracle EBs R12 as it is not certified. The only supported version is Developer 10g

  • Difference between AAC and m4a files, converting from AAC to useable format

    Does anyone know the difference between AAC and m4a files? iTunes has an option to use an AAC encoder to compress CD files, but this creates an m4a file not an AAC file. I just got some actual AAC files and iTunes cannot read these, is there a way to convert from AAC to a format that iTunes recognizes? Thanks

    iTunes uses AAC data wrapped in an MPEG 4 container file. If you got some *.AAC files, and they're just raw AAC files, then you need to wrap them in an MPEG 4 container. The only way I know to do this is using the foobar 2000 program. You can find more information at http://www.hydrogenaudio.org and http://www.foobar2000.org

    Hi everyone,
    What is the difference between *.SAR and *.CAR files?

    hi Veera
    These are similiar to .zip for SAP components...
    .SAR supports version of SAP above 4.6c onwards
    whereas .CAR supports version of SAP before 4.6C
    whenever you want to download kernel patches basing on the version of SAP these files come either in .SAP extension or .CAR extension...

  • How to share files between computers and TC

    What is the best way to share content/files between computers (iMac and MacBook Pro)?
    I thought about using Time Capsule for this...is this NOT wise?
    Thanks

    What is the best way to share content/files between computers (iMac and MacBook Pro)?
    The simplest way to do this would be to enable File Sharing on both Macs.
    On each Mac....
    Open System Preferences (gear icon on the dock)
    Open Sharing
    Enter a check mark next to File Sharing
    Now when you open the Finder or Macintosh HD, you will see the "other" Mac and you will be able to access files/folders, etc. on the other computer.
    I thought about using Time Capsule for this...is this NOT wise?
    The Time Capsule was designed to work with the Time Machine application to back up your Mac(s). As such, the TC will make a complete copy of each Mac on the first backup and backup any changes after that to keep a complete timeline of each Macs files. Each computer normally will only be able to access the backups for that given computer.
    While it is possible to store normal files or folders on the Time Capsule disk, this is not generally recommended as there will eventually be a struggle between Time Machine and the files on the disk as the drive begins to fill up. The other thing to keep in mind is that access to the drive for "normal" files will be quite slow.

  • Font issue between Reports Designer and Report Output

    Hi.
    I've succesfully migrated several reports from 6i to 10g (10.1.2.0.2) with and without parameter form. However, I have the following font issue:
    - When report is run from Reports Designer, font is kept.
    - When report is run from a forms module (through rwserver on the same machine, that is not really from an application server, but using Oracle BC4J or Developer Suite enviroment) the report output is different. In this case a bigger font is displayed and occasional truncation happens for some fields.
    The question is: How can i avoid this difference in font behaviour?. Is it font.ali related?. How come this happen on the same machine(Windows XP)? These reports are to be deployed on Linux, where reasonably, and font machine is expected to happen.
    Font used: Arial (Occidental) 9

    this might be an issue with the printer that is associated also, and the permissions to the printer that you might have..
    login to the application server machine and restart the reports server as an admin..try running the reports via the URL..i have a feeling that this issue might be somethiing to do with the permission(s) to the printer from your AS machine

  • Font differences between Arch and Fedora (Hyperworks)

    Anyone in Arch land running Altair Hyperworks?  I know that it is supported only on Red Hat Enterprise or SUSE Enterprise, but I believe that it will run on Fedora as well, so I thought I'd give it a whirl on Arch.  It seems to have an issue with missing (or not finding) fonts.  As far as I can tell, I have all the same fonts on my Arch install as I did in Fedora.  I'm guessing that this is due to differences in the way the font folders are laid out between Arch and Fedora.  Anyone got any suggestions before I go randomly poking around in /usr/share/fonts?

    Sorry for bringing back old post.
    But have you or anyone had any suggestions to run Altair Hyperworks on Arch?
