Fonts for Titles in IMovieHD

All the Fonts on all the settings in the Title section of my IMovieHD program are shadowed or doubled. How can I get them to what 'regular' should be?
thanks, Joaneva

Hi joaneva:
Welcome to discussions.
The 'shadowed' look is there for a reason. That is how movie fonts always look.
Perhaps you can find a plugin that does not use the shadows?

How to add newly installed fonts for titles?

I'm having a problem. I recently installed a few new fonts into my Mac's font library. It seems that Adobe does not pick up on these downloads. Is there a way that I can transfer these unique fonts into my Adobe Premiere Pro CC program?

You cannot 'transfer' fonts to Premiere, they must reside in the appropriate folder on the Mac.
The fonts need to be True Type.

Where can I get fancy text fonts for Adobe Photoshop?

I have Adobe Photoshop CS(old) and I would like to know where I can obtain fancy fonts for some creative designing. Please see sample attached. Thanks in advance.

Going way back, I used to have to remove fonts, to get my OS to function properly. They really slowed the computer down. That was when I first went to a font manager, so that I could do that on the fly. OS's are MUCH better now.
Still, my machines have only about 350 installed fonts, at any one time. I have about the same number of fonts, as you do, and then just add the ones that I need for a job, letting them uninstall, when I shut down.
In general, the laptop is pretty clean, but I have about 12,000 fonts available on it. I've got about 19,000 on the workstation, but still, never have more than about 350, installed at any one time. I probably should pare down those fonts, as many have not been used, ever, and many were for particular clients, or projects, and will likely never get used again. Still, and especially with display/Headline fonts, I often go searching for just the right look, for main Titles, etc., in my Videos. Just do not do much print work nowadays.
At one time, I could backup my fonts on a CD. Now, it's two DL DVD's! Still, I paid for 95% of those suckas, and the rest were free from the Internet, so I do have an investment, and who knows what I will need to do tomorrow?

Setting Font for converting multiple text files into PDF using VB 6.0

Am converting multiple text files into PDF using VB6.0. Currently, am unable to control the font face and size for the generated files. Below is the procedure am using for each file;
Public Sub proc_convert_to_PDF(srcFilename As String, destFilename As String)
Dim p_AcroApp As CAcroApp
Dim p_VDoc As CAcroAVDoc
Dim p_DDoc As CAcroPDDoc
Dim IsOk As Boolean
Set p_AcroApp = CreateObject("AcroExch.App")
Set p_VDoc = CreateObject("AcroExch.AVDoc")
Call p_VDoc.Open(srcFilename, "")
Set p_VDoc = p_AcroApp.GetActiveDoc
If p_VDoc.IsValid Then
Set p_DDoc = p_VDoc.GetPDDoc
' Fill in pdf properties.
p_DDoc.SetInfo "Title", Format(Date, "dd-mm-yyy")
p_DDoc.SetInfo "Subject", srcFilename
If p_DDoc.Save(1 Or 4 Or 32, destFilename) <> True Then
MsgBox "Failed to save " & srcFilename
End If
p_DDoc.Close
End If
'Close the PDF
p_VDoc.Close True
p_AcroApp.Exit
'Clear Variables
Set p_DDoc = Nothing
Set p_VDoc = Nothing
Set p_AcroApp = Nothing
End Sub
What I need;
1) to be able to set the font face of the destination file ( destFilename)
2) to be able to set the font size of the destination file ( destFilename)
Am using Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Type Library
Kindly Help.
Thanks in advance

We didn't say it doesn't work. We said it isn't supported.
There are a number of other ways to make a PDF. The one which would
give the most control is if your application directly printed to GDI,
controlling the font directly. This could print to Adobe PDF.
You could look for an application that gives control of font for
printing.
You could use a text-to-PostScript system and distill the result. You
could even look for a non-Adobe text-to-PDF.
Working in the unsupported and dangerous world you chose, the font
size for text conversion is set (and this is very bad design from
Adobe) in the settings for Create PDF > From Web Page. There is no API
to this.

Font issue (Thonburi font for Thai language)

Dear Apple and friends,
I'm using Final Cut Pro X (latest update as of 19/11/2014) on latest os x 10.10.1
While I was on OS X 10.9, I use the Thonburi (Font come with the system) for insert a Thai subtitle in the video without any problem.
But today I found out that I have some problem with Thai character on Thonburi font
I also attached the screenshot for your reference.
Please help me, I do need to use this font to keep consistent on the brand.
Thanks and looking forward to your help,
Best,
Note Pawares (Thailand)

What title is it? You can try a different title and see if the problem remains.
Also, does the problem always occurs in the first line of a title, or only if there is more than one line, or... you should provide feedback to Apple, and be as specific as possible. (Final Cut Pro->Provide Final Cut Pro Feedback...)
It could be a problem with the font, or with how FCP X deals with it. There used to be similar problems with other fonts for Asian languages some time ago, but this the first time I hear of one for the current version.

Best Font for Subtitles? and other General Subtitling questions?

I've never had to use subtitles, until my current project, so I am looking for some general advice and suggestions.
I will be using PPCS3 (on XPpro) as the subtitles (as in the kind that translate a foreign language) will be permanent.
So here are my questions:
1. What is the best font and or what is the most standard font for subtitles? (Font size and other characteristics may be worth mentioning here too.)
2. Is it possible to have an outline around the text as opposed to shadow?
3. What are some general rules of thumb for subtitles that apply to broadcast and cinematic productions?
Thank you.

Special Fonts in Titles

I am using Premiere Elements 10 on WIndows 7. I have some Hebrew Unicode OpenType Fonts. They do not appear in the font menu, nor can I cut and paste text from another application. How can I use Hebrew characters in titles?
Also, is there a way to use graphic elements in either titles or credits?

When a font, that is properly installed into the OS, does not show in the list, or will not allow for Copy/Paste, it is almost always a fault with the particular font(s).
Adobe programs are VERY sensitive to fonts, and Titler (in both PrE and PrPro) is probably the MOST sensitive. Everything MUST be perfect.
Based on helping a user with certain Chinese fonts, I would suggest looking for the same, or very similar Hebrew fonts from a major foundry. That is what worked for that user.
One consideration with Hebrew & Arabic fonts is their character order. I do not know about Titler, but in some Adobe programs, such as Illustrator, one needs to have the language version of the program, that supports the Hebrew or Arabic character order.
Now, one option would be to use the fonts in a program, that offers full support for the fonts that you have, and then Save_As into a graphic format, such as TIFF. As all graphics in Video must be Rasterized at some point, when you do the Rasterization is not that important. I would look to TIFF, TGA, BMP or PNG, and not JPEG, which compresses, and with text, one does not want any unnecessary compression.
Good luck,
Hunt

You set up your font in the Title Properties then go the panel (dropdown) menu of the Title Styles and select New Style.

Need help in finding a font for a logo

I was looking for help in finding a font for my logo. I'm not a designer at all, so I'm calling on all the fine designers and folks on the Adobe site to help me out. All replies are, of course, appreciated and any suggestions/comments/ideas will be welcome.
I'm designing a logo for my film company. I wanted to keep it simple but not boring either. I put together the first draft of the logo using Photoshop CS3 and used Trajan Pro for the film company words (Panthera Films) and used Futura for the slogan ("Inspiration through Imagination"). While I don't mind the fonts, it's simple but, alas, too boring. I love the panther image but need a dynamic font for "Panthera Films" and a complimenting font for the slogan.
Can anyone recommend a good combination of fonts to replace the Trajan Pro and Futura? As well, I want to give the logo a nice presence without it being too loud, bold or jumping off the page. As well, should the font for "Films" be the same as "Panthera" or can they be different?
The image I attached is something I was thinking to use as a banner on a website.
Any help would be appreciated too with this
TIA,
Dale

Dale,
As I said, I like it too.
You may consider making it a bit heavier, maybe bold, for readability at small sizes.
It is hard to recommend a specific font because it should represent your company and what it stands for. Have you tried typing the name in a word processing application (Worst or something better) and then running through all the font you have? If not, that might give you a few new thoughts about the overall kind of font you feel is the right one. And then it is much easier to recommend something.

Is there any way to change the default font for outgoing text-messages, in "Messages"? (OSX 10.10)

Is there any way to change the default font for outgoing text-messages, in "Messages"?
I can change it for one conversation, but then it resets to the default, tiny font.
The preferences menu only lets me change the conversation font.
(OSX 10.10)

Hi,
As you may remember there used to be a Messages pane to the Preferences where the Font and colour of the Balloons or background and the Font text colour could be changed.
And there was a Format Menu for character, word and Sentence changes in the current IM or iMessage.
Those have gone in Yosemite's version of Messages (Despite it retaining the designation of Messages 8 the same as Mavericks' version).
All that can be done now is set the size of the font and this has been moved to the General Section of the Preferences.
The Yosemite version has also been fixed to using the Balloons style of send and receiving any type of messages as well.
Changing the Font would involved editing the Balloon.transcript file.

How do I find the font for a specific character in a textItem?

I'm writing a script that builds a font list for an open document. While I could have lookup the fonts for the file as a whole, my goal is to iterate over specific layerSets to build a font list from. The issue I'm facing, is that referencing:
app.fonts[text[n].textItem.font].name
Only pulls the font name of the first character of the textItem. I need to get the names of all the fonts in the textItem, and while I can successfully loop through each of the letters, they do not have the character attributes associated with them.
I tried this: app.fonts[text[n].textItem.contents.font].name
As well as many iterations of a similar idea, and I cannot get it to pull the font name, as it's not an attribute of each character. I apologize if this is a remedial question, but I'm a bit of a novice with javascript in Adobe programs.
For an example of what I'm trying to acheive, I was easily able to do this in illustrator, by using the following statement:
fontName = text.characters[j].characterAttributes.textFont.name;
When placed in a loop, this goes through each font in the text Layer.

This should get a list of the fonts used in Type Layers in the selected Group.
// get list of fonts used in the active group;
// based on code by paul riggott;
// 2014, use it at your own risk;
#target "photoshop-70.032"
if (app.documents.length > 0) {
var theFonts = main ();
alert ("the fonts used in the folder " + activeDocument.activeLayer.name + " are"+"\n"+theFonts.join("\n"))
function main () {
var theFonts = new Array;
var someLayerStuff = getActiveLayerIIndex();
if (someLayerStuff[1] != "layerSectionStart") {return []};
var aNumber = 0;
// get number of layers;
var ref = new ActionReference();
ref.putEnumerated( charIDToTypeID("Dcmn"), charIDToTypeID("Ordn"), charIDToTypeID("Trgt") );
var applicationDesc = executeActionGet(ref);
var theNumber = applicationDesc.getInteger(stringIDToTypeID("numberOfLayers"));
// determine the start index;
if (activeDocument.layers[activeDocument.layers.length - 1].isBackgroundLayer == true) {var theStart = someLayerStuff[0] - 2}
else {var theStart = someLayerStuff[0] - 1};
for (var p = theStart; p >= 0; p--) {
try {
var ref = new ActionReference();
ref.putIndex( charIDToTypeID( "Lyr " ), p);
var layerDesc = executeActionGet(ref);
var layerSet = typeIDToStringID(layerDesc.getEnumerationValue(stringIDToTypeID("layerSection")));
var isBackground = layerDesc.getBoolean(stringIDToTypeID("background"));
var theName = layerDesc.getString(stringIDToTypeID('name'));
// check if group closes;
if (layerSet == "layerSectionStart") {aNumber++};
if (layerSet == "layerSectionEnd" && aNumber == 0) {return theFonts};
if (layerSet == "layerSectionEnd" && aNumber != 0) {aNumber--};
// if not layer group collect values;
if (layerSet != "layerSectionEnd" && layerSet != "layerSectionStart" && isBackground != true) {
var hasText = layerDesc.hasKey(stringIDToTypeID("textKey"));
if (hasText == true) {
var textDesc = layerDesc.getObjectValue(stringIDToTypeID('textKey'));
var paragraphStyle = textDesc.getList(stringIDToTypeID('paragraphStyleRange'));
var kernRange = textDesc.getList(stringIDToTypeID('kerningRange'));
var rangeList = textDesc.getList(stringIDToTypeID('textStyleRange'));
for (var o = 0; o < rangeList.count; o++) {
var styleDesc = rangeList.getObjectValue(o).getObjectValue(stringIDToTypeID('textStyle'));
var aFont = styleDesc.getString(stringIDToTypeID('fontPostScriptName'));
// add to array;
var theCheck = true;
for (var n = 0; n < theFonts.length; n++) {
