Font looks different from page to page - InDesign

The font looks BOLD in page 1 but looks correct in page 2/3. The font is exactly the same (from what I can tell). It also seems to be a page thing, because I can drag the font to page 2/3 and it looks correct. Drag it back to page 1 and it looks bold.

Is there an image, or an element with an applied effect on the page that is displaying a bold font? If so, try putting the text on its own separate layer.
As a side note, in the future you'll get quicker and more useful help on questions regarding specific problems by posting in the primary product forums. The InDesign forum can be found here: http://forums.adobe.com/community/indesign

Firefox fonts look different from Chromiums

Hi, my Firefox fonts look different than the ones Chromium uses:
Left is Firefox, right is chrome. As you can see, the placement of characters is somewhat different.
This is NOT the issue mentioned on the Firefox Wiki page, at least it is not fixed with the fontconfig.
What happens here?
Thank you,
Jan Oliver

I have "serif" , "sans serif" and "monospace" in the selections, "serif" being the default.
I applied the fix from here, and it did smoothen the fonts, but the letter placing is still bad as in the screenshot.

MY FONT LOOKS DIFFERENT IN INDESIGN PAGES PLEASE HELP!!!!!

Hello, I have a majo problem here. I have all my pages written in one font, Arial Narrow, however the width of the font looks different from page to page, it looks bold on page 1 and 2, and on page 3 it looks fine, is there any invisible setting applied to the whol page? why does it look bold? I did try toprint them, they do look different, also, there is no stroke set, i checked, and color is set to black not registration. Is there anything else I am missing???? Please help!!!!

Transparency isn't something you would adjust, per se.
Imported art may have transparency in it (like a transparent background), or you may have applied an effect like a glow or a drop shadow, or used a blending mode (all of which are transparency effects) on an object on your document page, or even adjusted an object's opacity in the effects panel to make the background show through (this is true tranparency inthe classic sense). Any of these things will result in ID redrawing the page and "emboldening" the type on that page.
There is no way to remove the eefect other than to remove the transparency from the page (if you are showing the icons for it in the pages panel, whcih you set in the panel options, you'll see a small checkerboard next to the page icon in the panel if there is transparency in use). To assure that all pages look the same if you are going to use transparency on any page, you can add a transparent object to the master page.

My firefox home page looks different from your tutorial

I am trying to learn to use firefox. Sometimes the firefox home page looks different from the one in your tutorial. Fox example, now I am looking above and the "plus sign" symbol to add a new tab is not there. Please advise me. Thank you.

You can find the New Tab button showing as a '+' on the Tab bar.
You can open the Customize window and drag the New Tab button that shows as a plus sign (+) from the Tab bar on another toolbar and it will become a regular toolbar button like the New Tab button that you have in Firefox 3 versions.
If you can't find the New Tab button then click the "Restore Default Set" button in the Customize window.

If you want the New Tab button at the far right end of the Tab bar then place a flexible space to the left of it.

How can i set different font for different tabs/pages

I want to set different fonts for different tabs/pages?
is it possible to do the same? If yes how?
I can change the fonts under tools>options>contents>advanced. but that changes global settings.
tried some add ons too- but that too changes the global settings.
some pages like tweetdeck do not display icons etc properly under custom fonts.
when i check "allow pages to select their own font" tweetdeck shows up fine but a number of other pages show fonts that are too big or some non standard fonts.
Is there a way where i can select site default fonts for some sites/tabs, and custom fonts for other sites/tabs?
otherwise i have to open different sites in different browsers- say i use my custom fonts- which apply globally, and open tweetdeck etc in Internet Explorer or Chrome etc. if i can have all tabs in one window/browser, that would be great.

It's not a built-in feature to override a page's styles on a tab-by-tab or site-by-site basis, but perhaps someone has created an add-on for this?
It also is possible to create style rules for particular sites and to apply them using either a userContent.css file or the Stylish extension. The Greasemonkey extension allows you to use JavaScript on a site-by-site basis, which provides further opportunity for customization. But these would take time and lots of testing to develop and perfect (and perfection might not be possible)...
Regarding size, does the zoom feature help solve that part? In case you aren't familiar with the keyboard and mouse shortcuts for quickly changing the zoom level on a page, this article might be useful: [[Font size and zoom - increase the size of web pages]].

Layout Looks Different from Dreamweaver to Email?

I am currently using Adobe Dreamweaver CS5 to create emails for my work. Last month I started having an issue where the 3 columns I have in the template would look even in Dreamweaver, but when I sent a test email to myself they looked completely off. This past week I have encountered another issue where the cellpadding of the email looks different from Dreamweaver to email. I am new to HTML and coding so it could just be me, but is anyone having a similar problem and if so, is there a way to fix it?

HT5930 Why does my Aperture v3.5.i look different from the one shown in the online videos

Why does my Aperture v3.5.i look different from the one shown in the online videos

Are you asking about the colorful icons in the video?
The video must have been done with an Aperture version 3.2.4 or earlier. Since Aperture 3.3 are the icons drab and gray - the Aperture 3.3 Release Notes are calling this:
Newly designed monochrome source list and toolbar icons.
The Release notes will tell you, what has changed since then:

Page that is uploaded to the server looks different from the preview in Dreamweaver browser

Hi, I have a couple of questions. Does anyone happen to know why my homepage looks different in Dreamweaver when I preview in browser then it does when I upload the page onto the server? http://www.iewaterkeeper.org/ I see a join our mailing list button is intact when I preview in browser but is no where to be found when I view the uploaded page from the server. Other weird things have been going on with Dreamweaver today like I wasn't able to absolute position a div tag in it's intended place and all the typography on my homepage looks very blurry in Dreamweaver but looks clearer when it's uploaded to the server. Does anyone know what's going on? Any help would be greatly appreciated. .... Could it be a virus?

That's so weird because I'm looking at the code in Dreamweaver and line 181 has a closing </body>.   Here's the code straight from Dreamweaver:

Fonts looks different in Illustrator. Why?

I'm making a web menu on illustrator and i've noticed that the font that i'm using looks different (thinner) in Illustrator (preview or export) than it does on a Word Processor or in a Web Site ( http://wordmark.it).
What can i do to get the same look?
Im using Gill Sans , Light , Size : 25.
I'll attach an image so you can notice the difference.
Thanks!

There are two settings you should look at one ins in the general tabof the Illustrator Preferences Anti-Alias which you should turn on then in the save for the web in the image tab select Type Optimize from the pull down.
here are the differences
No anti alias

Save for the web abd device no optimization

My fonts are different from DW to Photoshop

Hi all,
I have designed a layout in photoshop, using sample text of Arial 10pt with no layer effects.
However, when I import my layout into CSS, and then add real text inside the DIVS, the Arial 10pt font appears different.
As shown above, the text becomes significantly larger in DW (top) than it appears in Photoshop (bottom) and also becomes smoother and less pixelated looking.
So, how do I overcome this text difference? Is it possible for me to get my text in Dreamweaver to look EXACTLY like it does in Photoshop?
Thanks if anyone can help,
Korey

Point size is nearly meaningless on screen. It depends on too many factors. It's main use is for print.
Use pixel size. You can set Photoshop to use pixels for text in your preferences, or if you do print work, you can change it on a case by case basis.

After using overhead projector my fonts look different

Last night i held a presentation and used Keynote. When i have switched my macbook back on this morning the fonts on my screen look different blurred and larger and ideas how i can get my screen to revert back to normal?

Go to 'System Preferences'>'Display' and change your monitor's resolution back to normal (typically, the highest number available).

Why is it that iTunes looks different from all other apps again?

This might be a rather irrelevant question, yet I wonder: Why is it that iTunes doesn't look like the majority of other Apple apps? I guess it's mainly the scrolls bars and the check boxes. Not that I don't like the way iTunes look, I'm just curious why it has to look different when one of Leopard's goals was to make a more unified interface.
Can anyone enlighten me or is this something that only Apple knows?

"Besides, not all of us run Leapard, so wouldn't making iTunes look like leapard make it look different on all our systems that don't use leapard?"
That's a point But what I meant by that was that in Tiger there are many different kinds of windows where Apple in Leopard has tried to stick to just one. And that's why I think it's so weird that iTunes has to differ from all the rest.

When I preview a page in a browser it looks different from my design

Hi, I'm having problems with my font and pictures not spacing correctly. They look perfectly in dreamweaver but when I publish or preview that are further apart than they're supposed to be. I need Help!

For more meaningful answers you'll need to post a URL to your test page so we can see it.
That said, DW Design View is not 100% reliable owing to different browsers, end-user settings and display sizes. Test your site in ALL major browsers (Chrome, FF, IE7, 8, Opera...) with increased/decreased text (zoom, text only). Also test with maximized and smaller than max browser viewport. Do this often during the design phase.
Use valid markup and CSS code. Bad code is the #1 cause of most page rendering problems.

How Can I Change One Page to Look Different From The Rest of My Pages?

Hi, my website uses a CSS page with a dark background and white type. But I have one page I need to have a white background and light grey type on. I am not sure how to do this without it changing all of my site's look which I don't want to do. I only want to change one page to have a different look. How can I do this? I am new to CSS so please try to explain how I can do this in simple terms if you can. Thanks.

There are 3 ways to use CSS.
External style sheet: a separate physical file that contains all your site wide rules & to which your html documents are linked.
http://alt-web.com/DEMOS/DW-Link-Stylesheet.shtml
Embedded styles: page specific rules in the <head> section of code view.
<head>
     <style type="text/css">
          page specific styles go here...
     </style>
</head>
Inline styles: CSS styles in the markup (mostly used for HTML emails and not on web sites).
     <p style="color:red">This paragraph has a red style.</p>
In order of importance, inline styles override embedded styles. Embedded styles override external styles.
