Thanks in advance.

Hi Chin
* Ensure that the font you used to develop the report exists on the Server system.
* Inspect uifont.ali to see if you have any font substitution for the font you are using in
your report.

PDF font/typeface display problem

Hello. The company I work for was hired as a contractor to create an online training program. We created it in Word and sent the .docx files to the client to put up on their system. They converted the files into PDFs and uploaded them.
The problem is the PDFs they created from the Word docs are barely readable. We used Times New Roman but obviously something went wrong during the conversion process.
What is causing this problem and is there anything that can be done to fix it? Thank you in advance for any help.

Type display problems in Safari

If you're like me who have a lot of fonts loaded, you may come across this. Certain web pages that you can't read in Safari. Take out or disable Adobe Helvetica Fractions (Linotype-****) © 1991/92 from the Fonts folder. It worked for me.
PowerBook 17" Mac OS X (10.4.5)

go4aride,
Welcome to Apple Discussions.
Thanks for the information.
According to Kurt Lang...Helvetica Fractions is a known source of many font issues. Kurt Lang also has an excellent treatise called Font Management in Mac OS X Tiger and Panther.

Web Kit Font Display Problem with "BEBAS NEUE"?

Since today font "Bebas Neue" is not displayed correctly.
Online connection is ok. Font is displayed only when published.
Thanks for help.

I tried that temporary solution but, in my design, I use boxes and triggers etc. and since the "replacement" font for the Bebas Neue is so different from the original, it somehow effected my design (white rectangles under the boxes).
The first image: Font uploaded manually, hence rendered as image, and the contour is not good. (Look at the letter A) (partial screenshot from browser)
The second image: The font is Bebas Web Font(!) in Adobe Muse (partial screenshot from adobe muse)
The third image: Font left as is; Bebas Web Font published as it is in the second image, displayed correctly as font BUT there is a white rectangle under the box. (partial screenshot from browser)
By the way I am using Macbook Pro, Mac OS X 10.9.2, Adobe Creative Cloud Single Edition (Muse CC v7.2 Build 232). Yesterday I worked with the same design without any problems. Nothing updated since then.

Unicode Khmer font display problems in FrameMaker 10?

How do I get Khmer OS or any unicode Khmer font to display properly in FrameMaker 10?
I am working with cambodian files in FrameMaker 10.
This is what it looks like in Word (this is how it should look)
This is how the same texk looks in FrameMaker 10...
The font is NiDA Chenla and I was able to fix this is ID CS5.5 by turning on the World-Composer.
Is there something similar in FrameMaker 10.

Hi CTSRisk,
Probably spread and stretch option in Character designer might get if fixed for as i dont know the language,i am assuming the language is ok and the only problem is the spacing between them.
If yes,kindly goto character designer and change the spacing between them.
I apologize for the late response,however sometimes its not possible to answer on the forums quickly for us.
Let me know in case i understood the question wrong.

How to fix jaggy font display problem?

I upgraded to Snow Leopard from Leopard a few days ago and have been having font display problems ever since.
When I first upgraded, everything seemed fine, but then Word wouldn't display Arial. So, I validated fonts in Font Book and discovered a bunch of dupes. When I deactivated the dupes, that problem was resolved. But, a new problem occurred. Many of the fonts throughout various applications (Mail, Safari, Finder) appeared jaggy.
I tried playing with text smoothing and LCD font smoothing, but neither seemed to have much, if any, effect.
Then, I decided that I hadn't had a good font cleanup for several years, and maybe all the dupes and other detritus were part of the problem. So, I literally deleted all my fonts from system/library, root/library and user/library (I copied some into a .zip archive for safe keeping) and reinstalled Snow Leopard and all current updates. Then, I fixed permissions twice (though there are always permissions that won't fix) and booted into single user and did an fsck.
But, after all that, my jaggy problem still persists
It's really strange in that it appears worse at some times. And, doesn't seem to be present in all apps. Here's a screenshot from YouTube with Safari on the left (bad jaggies) and Chrome on the right (no jaggies).
I'd really appreciate some help. Any ideas?

Start with something relatively simple, like clearing the font cache files.
Close all running applications. From an administrator account, open the Terminal app and enter the following command. You can also copy/paste it from here into the Terminal window:
sudo atsutil databases -remove
This removes all font cache files. Both for the system and all user font cache files. After running the command, close Terminal and immediately restart your Mac.
This does not clear the font cache files for Word (Office), which keeps its own such items.
Close all Office applications. Remove the following files. The tilde (~) indicates your home account.
~/Library/Caches/com.microsoft.browserfont.cache
~/Library/Preferences/Microsoft/Office Font Cache (11)
For Office 2008, the location of the second item is:
~/Library/Preferences/Microsoft/Office 2008/Office Font Cache (12)
For Office 2011, the location is:
~/Library/Preferences/Microsoft/Office 2011/Office Font Cache

Can we change font size and font type in reports

Hi All Technical/Functional Masters,
We are developing some transactional reports in ISU. this report has 20 columns to be printed. On screen, display is not a problem but client has a requirement to download this report in PDF format and wants to print on A4-paper in Landscape. Although we have managed to accommodate all the columns on A4 paper but have to compromise with font size that are very small and not visible. If we download the report in excel format we are able to maintain the font size 8 and accommodate all columns after little format but same in PDF is a problem.
Can anyone tell whether we can increase the font size and change font type(from SAP standard to 'Arial') before sending the output in PDF ? Is there any property or utility that can be changed or used for this purpose.

InDesign CS5.5 fonts not displaying correctly when applying styles

Hi there,
My problem is this - I've set up character and paragraph styles in a document. Yesterday everything in the document was working as expected. Today I open the file and some of the fonts are displaying incorrectly ie instead of a selection of type being bold (where a character style has been applyed) the whole paragraph is now bold and doesn't respond to having the character style removed.
There are no error messages, the program loads, doesn't crash, did go slow but I resaved all the linked files and it moved along at it normal speed - it is quite a complicated document. Other files seem to behave, so I thought it might be a corrupt file. However when I tried to save to IDML the process was interminable, so I cancelled it (tried this several times and with a simplified file - removed all the images).
I've cleaned out the font caches.
I trashed the program preferences.
Hope somebody out there has a idea.
Thanks

Most likely reasons for what you are seeing is the paragraph has the bold style assigned to the whole thing as a character style (maybe nested without a valid end trigger?), or the basic character attibutes of the paragraph style were changed to bold. Slightly less likely is that you managed to apply Bold to the whole paragraph as a local override (which owuld show up as a + sign next to the paragraph style name).

Change font type/style of app.popUpMenu

Hi~~
I am using app.popUpMenu to show an array of items, in which there are some Chinese charaters but they are displayed as "..."
I guess the default font type of the popup menu cannot show these Chinese characters...
Is there any method to change the popup menu font type / style?
Also I tried to change the font of the textfield which populates the popup menu, but it doesn't work...
~~~~ thanks for any suggestions!

hi radzmar~ thanks for your advice!
i tried but it cannot solve my problem...all the chinese characters can be shown correctly in the form except this app.popUpMenu
the chinese characters can also be shown in alert message box
any other suggestions ><

Display problems after update

I recently updated- on balance things went ok-
How ever for some odd reason something is causing KDE (3.5) to behave oddly-
I used to have a app in the kde control panel that'd let me fine tune settings (fonts and display size for instance)- I see the app but not how to fine tune the settings other than for gamma and color-
I can use the nvidia-tools to do some of that- however something is causing my directories to display incorrectly meening that when double click on say- /home/(username here)/ I have a big fat square block where files used to be- and any window moving over that gets fairly well corupted.
I can sort of work around this by changing from"icon view"- to info list view.
I'm not sure how to fix this
Anyway any kind of direction at all about what's causing this problem is great.

I have the same problem. It happened right after I installed the graphics update. When the computer restarted, my screen went crazy. I couldn't see anything, just a screen full of horizontal lines. After restarting a couple of times it seemed to go away, but it has begun to happen again recently. although not as bad yet. I am not saying it's not a logic board issue, but it does seem funny that more than one person is experiencing the same type of problem after the graphics update. I guess it's time to take a trip to the apple store.

Developer 6.0 WebForms display problems

Well, looking at all the submissions here regarding fonts, etc., I don't think I'm alone here.
I am trying to migrate a Forms 4.5 application to Forms 6.0 so that I can use WebForms to run it over the Web. I'm using Developer 6.0 with Patch 5A applied, against OAS 4.0.7.1 on NT 4.0 SP 3 and a 8.1.5 database.
Before I applied the patch, I had the following problems:
- Icons on buttonbar were clipped around the edges, but appeared centred.
- Embedded images didn't display at all.
- A form using Verdana font for small text didn't display it's text.
- A login window appeared in the centre of the screen (OK).
After I applied the patch, the embedded images did display - yeeeehaaaa! However, I still have the following problems:
- The icons on the buttonbar now are indented from the left, with about 2mm of button that just wont show my image, with the image now off to the right and pushed upwards (worse than before!)
- The Verdana font still doesn't display, and I've tried adding it to the Registry.dat file to map it to a Java font. I might try using the FORMS60_DEFAULTFONT entry in the registry as mentioned elsewhere here (anyone tried this?)
- The login window is now "jammed" up into the top left of the Applet so that I can't see the input fields and can't move the window as I can't click its title bar (NOT OK).
If anyone has had similar problems, I'd like to hear from you - especially if you found how to fix any of these problems! If you've found that they're "unsolveable", I'd like to know that too.
In the last few years, I've been to SO many Oracle seminars/conferences, etc to hear them saying that WebForms works and is the only enterprise solution, etc. Why then, do they still have cosmetic problems with their product when it comes to things as simple as images on toolbars? I agree with others that they do not appear to be living up to their "hype".

Well, I haven't received any replies, but I have managed to find the cause and some solutions to some of the problems I mentioned.
I'm still having problems with the icons on the buttonbar having a left indent-type effect. Although, I can make it look bearable by modifying the images a bit.
The reason my login dialog was not being centred was to do with the Form using FORMS_MDI_WINDOW to get the width and height dimensions of the window in calculating where to place it. This works fine in the client-server version, but not the WebForms version. It appears to return 0. As this worked fine in the initial pre-patch version, my guess is that it was OK then, but not since Patch 5A was installed. I have worked around this for the time being by testing for dimensions of 0 and using an assumed size of 700x400 by default.
I managed to get the text on the Form using Verdana font to display afterall, although not in Verdana font as it maps to a Java font anyway. The problem wasn't actually with the Verdana font, it was that the canvas and item had large widths specified (so as to force scrollbars) and the text was actually way off to the left where it was not visible within the Java window. After I set the width to a value nearer to the windows width, I could see the text.
Although there can be problems when the window is resized as it doesn't "anchor" the content using the left side and provide scrollbars to go left and right to see all the content. It seems to try and make the field with current focus remain in the window, regardless if it means "hiding" the rest of the canvas. This may be a case of Java's Layout Managers not working the same as Windows?
I hope this helps others with similar problems. And if anyone has any ideas on my outstanding issues, I'd appreciate any emails.

Character display problem latin characters

For some reason old fonts show latin characters when i type "o/" and "l/". The problem seems confined to old fonts (at least Geneva; Monaco; New York), so I guess it is a bug?

I think after all it is a problem with the either:
a. OS installer, which should really try to delete fonts which are duplicated by new system fonts
b. OS which should give precedence to new system fonts over old system fonts where there are two the same, especially when the system fonts are in /System/Library/Fonts and the old ones are in /Library/Fonts
The major annoyance is that this problem appeared with Leopard and took me hours of searching to figure out its origin - when you don't know if it is a character entry problem (which I thought) or a character display problem (which it turned out to be). In the end the fix was simple - delete the superceded fonts.

Font not displaying on Reports Output (RHEL 5) for 10g

Hi, I know I've posted a question in the past about a font not displaying on Report Output for my Arial, Arial Narrow, and Courier New fonts. I worked with Oracle Support and found that Metalink Note#261879.1 fixed my problem with those 3 fonts. I ran the scripts and now that part works great.
However, I have one font "ARIALUNI.TTF" that will not work. This is out specific barcode font we use. I've pushed it on Linux from my Windows by pushing it as a binary file to the ORACLE_HOME/guicommon/tk/admin/TTF directory. I even put it in the directory for TTF on Metalink Notoe 261829.1 and let it create the files, but it still doesn't find it when I ran a report that uses this font.
I tried using font subsetting via the uiprint.ali and make a reference but it still doesn't seem to work.
Is there something I'm missing that would cause any of these not to work. I thought maybe some files had to be created under the guicommon/tk/admin/AFM file directory but I'm not sure.
I just want to have my 2 or 3 reports that use this barcode to work. Once I get them, I'm done and all my font issues are resolved. Any help is appreciated.
Chris

They are probably a very old Type 1 font. Try checking the dates on the font files. Your best bet would be to get the OpenType versions of those fonts and install them.
