Font's showing apostrophes and bullet points as wierd i symbol

Hi i'm having an issue in which the fonts Dax, Din and Bliss show a strange symbol when entering apostrophes or bulletpoints i have checked preferences the language is set to english. the font worked fine on CS5 and we are now on CS5.5 any help would be greatly appriciated.
The image below shows what its doing.

Hello,
We have been having similar Issues as above.
We are getting font character "Glyphs replacing other characters"
Specs of the machines
Mac OsX=10.5.8
ID version=ID-CS5 ver 7.0.3
Acrobat Distiller version = 8.0
Suitcase version=12.1.7 (We do not use suitcase anymore thinking this was the issue, we place the fonts into the Indesign CS5 font folder)
Fonts we have had this issue with
Sabon LT Std.
Garamond MT Regular
Fairfield LT STD
TimesLT Std
Palatino LT Std
Minion Pro Regular
Verdana Italic
Times New Roman PS
Characters that have been causing the issues.
io, il, hn, SY
The characters they are replaced with.
Ú Ÿ Õ Š Ỳ §
We run font cache cleaners such as Font Nuke, Font smasher and we even created our own from information found in other places where all the font cache's hide as well as suitcase's.
We tend to catch this issue in out PDF files we are actually but it does show up in the Indesign file, but you can close indesign and then reopen it and the issue is gone.
This lead us to believing it was a system font cache issue.
We process many jobs on a given day via 3 different machines that are setup to create PDF files.
We have a Process in place that before every job we clean the font cache and restart the machine. Now I do not know if people are following this procedure all the time but we do have this issue appear like every 3 weeks when we get more work going thru the workflows.
I am looking for other Solutions to what this could be, would upgrading to cs5.5 help solve this issue? Could it be Indesigns Preference file getting bashed as well? How can I better search for these characters.
We have been finding new characters it has replaced so its not always the same characters one time it was
joŸ =john
joÚ =john this was the latest.
Thank you for any responses.
Matt

Hi & thanks -
No time for the IE problem now, but on the "bulletpoints" page, these supporting files are either incorrectly linked in your page, or not uploaded to expected folder.

They are correctly linked on the IE page except for the ajax file which is linked to your local conputer.
No links should start with file://///

My Iphone5C shows plug and arrow pointing to Itunes symbol but when i plug into computer it says device not recognized

That screen is telling you the iPhone has gone into recovery mode, and you need to use the recovery mode instructions in http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808 to attach to a computer running iTunes. Summary of instructions:

My iphone rebooted and now it shows a USB cord pointing to the Itunes symbol

My IPhone rebooted or reset itself after trying to update, now it shows the USB cord pointing to the ITunes symbol. How do I synic it? What do I do?

- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

My iPod Touch shows USB and arrow pointing to iTunes

It's a newer generation that I bought a while back, but i tried to system restore so my little brother couldn't access my vital applications that i had installed previously.
Whilst plugged in, it said that a system update and iTunes update was required. However, neither fully finished. Instead, the iPod touch shows the generic USB cord with an arrow pointing toward the iTunes symbol.
Is there anything that i can do without having to pay for it to be fixed???

First get the latest version (10.6.3 ) of iTunes to install on your computer. See the following if necessary:
Trouble installing iTunes or QuickTime for Windows
The connect the iPod and restore via iTunes. Place the iPod in DFU mode and restore if necessary.

Grep styles and bullet points

Is there a way of using GREP styles to insert bullet points on text after a specific heading has been detected?
I am working on a brochure where many of the pages will have a features section, so am reluctant to manually overide paragraph styles. The "FEATURES:" heading will always stay the same, the text within the bullet points will change.
At the moment I have the following layout...
FEATURES:
test1
test2
test3
test4
What I am hoping to achieve is this...
FEATURES:
test1
test2
test3
test4
I haven't used GREP styles before but from looking round it seems the most obvious feature to use, so if anyone has an alternate solution that'd be great.

Header should be a paragraph style on it's own.
Use a hard return not a soft return for a new paragraph http://indesignsecrets.com/dos-and-donts-of-text-in-indesign.php
Bullet should be a separate paragraph style.
Apply that style to only bullets
Set a Character Style for your Bullets, which can be applied through the Bullet paragraph style.

Need some hand-holding and bullet point direction

ok, i need some help. We shoot our church services on Sony PDW-700 HD XDCAMS. We shoot in 420 HQ (whatever that is). Once we finish shooting the service, we pull the source video off of the XDCAM disk using the Sony XDCAM transfer utility. I believe we end up with a .mls file. We then edit the source and send it to compressor and then to DVD studio pro and it gets burned to a standard DVD. What we end up with is a video with artifacts in it. What I mean by artifacts is wavy lines around the edges of movement.
What I need to know, from step 1 to step whatever, is HOW to get the source from FCP to DVD w/out artifacts. It seems that we should be able to produce a DVD that looks better than ours and w/out the wavy lines around the edges of moving objects.
What I'm looking for is something like this:
When we open FCP, are there any preferences we need to have set before we import our source or will FCP adjust our project settings to match our source?
When done editing, do we need to do anything special when we send it to compressor?
Once in DVDSP, what do we need to be doing to make sure it comes out looking it's best.
I realize I am asking a lot here, but we're not novices. We understand things like the format of our media, etc. We're looking for a list or bullet point process to get from Media to DVD and have it look it's best.
Thank you
Cliff

If you have any doubts regarding the format you shot,
look in the Browser, control-click the media file, and select Item Properties > Format.
That will tell you exactly what FCP thinks you're using.
Note that if Field Dominance is None, your clip is progressive.
In the future, you should ask your camera crew to shoot progressive.

Creator: QT Player
Source: HD 2:XDCAM
Vid Rate: 29.97 fps
Frame Size: 1440 x 1080
Compressor: XDCAM HD 1080i60 (35 mb/s VBR)
You may want to simplify the workflow by setting your sequence up first.
Before you create any sequences, choose menu item > Easy Setup,
and choose one of the XDCAM presets.
• Chose Sony XDCAM HD
• Choose HDCAM HD 1080i60 VBR
• Choose framerate 20.97
Once you do this, all new sequences will have that format.
If you've set your sequence up correctly, dragging a clip to the sequence will not produce this:
For best performance, your sequence and external video should be set to the format
of the clips you are editing. Change sequence settings to match clip settings?
If you click yes, you are not transcoding. You are setting the sequence format to be the same
as what you shot.
The bottom line is that when you set the sequence to match the footage,
you should be able to play the footage without rendering. Of course,
once you start editing and adding transitions, rendering may become
necessary. Check out the note on rendering to ProRes 422 in this article:
http://www.kenstone.net/fcphomepage/ex1_sd_outputyoung.html
Although he's talking about going from XDCAM EX to a PAL DVD,
most of the principles apply. In particular:
• Set Rendering preferences to ProRes 422, i.e.
Sequence Settings > Render Control > Render > Codec
• Do your HD edit.
• When it's time to convert to SD (step 2 in the article) create a new sequence
with the settings NTSC Anamorphic. This will preserve the nice wide-screen look
of the original footage even when played on an SD DVD.
• Step 4 of the article: choose NTSC anamorphic.
If your footage was shot interlaced, choose field dominance lower (even).
The compressor is NTSC, and the frame rate is 29.97.
In the advanced compression settings, note that it should be 16:9,
and Progressive if you're shooting or converting to progressive.
Check out the last section of this article:

where field dominance is discussed in more detail.

HT4623 after trying to update ios my phone will not do anything, just shows charder with arrow pointing to my iphone symbol, wht?

i was trying to update ios and after i was complete i can not do anything with my phone now it just shows the charger with an arrow pointing to the itunes symbol,
i cant get out of that, what can i do?

Most likely it is showing an cable connecting to an iTunes symbol which indicates the device is in recovery mode.
Connect the device to a computer running iTunes and restore.

Can't select items, keeps showing paths and anchor points

All of a sudden when I roll over a selection the cursor displays anchor points and paths only. Any ideas?

Perhaps you have Smart Guides turned on.
Try Cmd+U to turn them off, and see how it goes.

I need this to work...my daughter is going crazy without it...any other suggestions???

Connect the iOS device to your computer and try to make a backup
iOS: How to back up
Then restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased. Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode if necessary to allow the restore.
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

For how to restore:

To restore from backup see:
iOS: How to back up
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.

My muse website, when uploaded, jumbles quotation marks, bullet points and apostrophes to appear as â€¢ and â€? Why?

My muse website jumbles quotation marks, bullet points and apostrophes to appear as â€™.
Its fine when I preview in browser, only once it's been uploaded do the marks become jumbled. Why?

Thanks Zak..The server host said that the jumbled marks are appearing as binary code while the rest of the text is appearing as "text".
They believe that the problem may be occurring at the FTP. The server host is configured to host binary and unicode.
They advised me to upload a zipped folder containing the site and they will try and open it at their end. Also, not sure if this is unique
to Adobe font kits. Its from Adobe Font kit.

Installed Yosemite and my power point bullet fonts have gone weird. How can I revert back to original bullet point menus

Since installing Yosemite the font menu on my bullet points has changed to strange symbols. I am using Office for mac 2011

so what are you moaning to us about? you want an older JRE, go install it. I don't know why you're taking this as some personal insult or something, it's not like anyone here is either responsible for this or can do anything about it.
Your little playground fight with MS concerns me not in the least.what playground fight? by and large, everyone here is a programmer who uses the java programming language in a professional capacity. that's got absolutely nothing whatsoever to do with the JRE arguments of a few years ago. get your facts straight

Use mask to show one bullet point at a time

I have content in multiple bullet points of text. The background is a texture. I'd like to use mask to show the text in sync with audio. It works but the text is the color of the mask. I have bullet point itself in a different color. How can I mask the area to show and use its own color?
Or is there a better way to sync multiple bullet points of text without having each bullet points in its own layer and MC?
Thanks,

make sure your font is embedded.
