Fonts in Presenter Notes

I know this has been remarked upon before but does anyone know where this is set? My slide font is American Typewriter. On some layouts notes appear in Helvetica 12, but on others it defaults to Lucida Grande 22!
At which point you go "What the @@XX£$%^!"
It must somehow be attached to the Master slide, but where?

I've had the same problem with font size in Presenter Notes. No such problem with PPT. This is important to me because I always print out the presentation in Slide+Notes view for participants, using the Notes as 'additional' information for the classroom audience.

  • Can no longer edit/adjust presenter note font sizes etc

    In a large presentation (meaning I don't wish to start over) I can now no longer edit the presenter fonts, in terms of size or other font related changes - either via the format bar, font window or toolbar icons...
    All options appear grayed out or unselectable...
    The reason I wished to alter font sizes is something occurred which in fact changed all the default sizes (from 22 down to an unreadable 12) in my presenter notes.
    Adding new slides retains the editable presenter notes...but quickly these seem to end up ultimately changing to the smaller uneditable font scenario.
    Help!

    I was just searching for this problem myself... here is my experience:
    In order to change presenter note fonts I need to open the font box (format/font/show fonts)... the problem is that things go screwy when I change presenter notes size... the cpu starts maxing out, keynote snails along.. I have to quit/restart. Bug city.?
    There is definitely some disconnect between these notes fonts and the rest of the keynote program!
    The ability to easily change these notes size is important for me but I'm hesitant to keep trying...
    ps: choosing font/format/show fonts is the same as using the toolbar A icon - the format bar fonts don't work for presenter notes.

  • Change presenter note font size and edit notes in slideshow mode

    Hi, I just switched to Keynote 5.03 and am still learns its features. I have some questions about the slideshow mode of keynote
    1. While in slideshow rehearsal mode with presenter notes showing, is there a way to zoom in on the notes to make the text bigger as you can in Powerpoint, which allows you to zoom up to 400%? This is handy: I can magnifying the notes without having to change its font size, hence no need to exit the slideshow mode.
    2. Powerpoint lets you edit the text of notes on the fly during a slideshow ("view presenter tool" mode), is there a way to do this in Keynote?
    3. The slide thumnails (allow you to jump to a certain slide) on top of the presenter screen are always very fuzzy, is it possible to increase the resolution to get a higher quality image?

    I believe that all of these are limitations of the current version of Keynote.

  • Presenter Notes Font - Default?

    I have to take notes on presentations in class regularly and I type them into the presenter notes.
    I'm having some trouble with the presenter notes' font and size. Everytime I go to a new slide's presenter notes, the font is Times New Roman or something. I have to INDIVIDUALLY change the font and size of every single slide's presenter notes.
    Is there a way to make a default setting so that all the presenter notes follow the same font/ size?? Thank you!

    Is this an existing presentation? If so, the presenter notes font has already been "set" for each slide, and there is no (easy) way to change this globally (in other words, it would require mucking about with the presentation XML file).
    You can, however, use the Copy/Paste Style function to quickly change the format for each slides notes -- format one slide as you want, select the notes and choose "Copy Style" from the Format menu or Toolbar, then go to the slide you want to enter text on, click in the Presenter Note space, and choose "Paste Style". Once you've got the style "loaded", it is just a matter of clicking "Paste Style" before you type on each slide -- there is no need to re-copy the style.

  • Keynote 6.1 Printing Presenter Notes (Font Size)

    I am a professor and I use extensive presenter notes in my presentations. I have tried printing the slides with the presenter notes but I cannot figure out how to change the font size and other aspects of the printout. I have adjusted the font size of the presenter notes to the size I would like, however when it prints, it just defaults to a much smaller size that is unreadable while I lecture.  Is there any way to control the size of the presenter note font on the printouts?  Thank you.

    I printed out some handouts this morning set at 36 point and they print correctly.
    In handouts there is a limit of 8 lines of text but they should print as set in presenter notes.
    Font, colour and size of text in presenter notes is achieved by:
    select the text in presenter notes pane (commad A)
    then format the text using :
    Format Font > Show Fonts (command T)

  • What fonts and attributes are available in presenter notes?

    I use keynote to make lecture presentations and make extensive use of the presenter notes but find it desireable to add italics, underlining, etc and different fonts in my notes.  Is there a way to do that?

    No, there is no mechanism for formating notes.

  • Font Book does not recognize some Postscript type 1 font files

    I am new to OS X and am trying to copy all of the fonts used under OS 9 (using Suitcase) to be available under OS X. I have copied all of my font folders into the correct location, but some of them do not appear in the font list within Font Book, and if I try to use the Add Fonts... menu to select these files they are grayed out.
    The Finder shows all the problem fonts to be "PostScript Type 1 outline font", just as for the files which do work. Is there any reason some files may not work in the Font Book? Note that if the files are corrupted, I don't understand because they were (and still are) working fine under the Classic environment.
    I'm not sure, but I don't think any of my TrueType files have similar problems. I have noticed that all of the PostScript Type 1 fonts which do work have an additional suitcase file in the folder, whereas the problem fonts do not. Does Font Book require a suitcase file to properly recognize and use the Type 1 files? I thought that the suitcase only contained the bitmapped fonts which are obsolete to OS X, but that's a guess...
    Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    Hi roxlankford,
    Font Book can read PostScript fonts. But, as you've noted, you don't have the whole font. Type 1 PostScript fonts are a set. One file is a suitcase containing all of the low res bitmap screen fonts. The rest are the outline printer fonts. As an example, here's Adobe Garamond.
    Adobe Garamond
    AGarBol
    AGarBolIta
    AGarIta
    AGarReg
    AGarSem
    AGarSemIta
    The first file which I highlighted in green is the font suitcase of bitmap screen fonts. The rest are the outline printer fonts.
    1) The files for a Type 1 PostScript font must have both the screen and printer fonts for a given set in order to work. They also must be in the same folder.
    2) The suitcase of bitmap fonts will work alone, but output will be terrible since the system will print the fonts using the 72 dpi screen fonts in the suitcase if the outline portions are missing.
    3) Having only the outline fonts will not work. You will get exactly what you are having problems with. You can see the fonts, but Font Book won't load them. That's not a problem with Font Book itself. No font manager will load outline fonts without the matching suitcase of screen fonts present.

  • Problem with formatting presentation notes

    Is there a way to change the formatting for all presentation notes, rather than slide by slide? If I open a slide master, and try to click in the notes field on that master, nothing happens. I can't see any preference for changing the default notes font/size either.
    Also, I've noticed something strange. After I print the presentation, the notes change to Helvetica 12 pt. despite the fact that they were 24 pt. before they were printed! This is repeatable and happens every time I print the presentation.
    Thanks for your help.

    This happened to me to. Try restoring from your latest iCloud backup, however, this'll only work if you have an iCloud account as you need one to back up notes. I apologise i can't be anymore detailed,as i dont have an iCloud acocunt myself.

  • Font styles in Notes

    How do you change the font family in the notes? isHTML is set
    to true in viewer.xml and vconfig.xml has <uifont
    name="FONT_NOTES" value="Arial,11,false,false,false"/> but it
    keeps coming out in Times New Roman. This happens in both Firefox
    and IE. Also, where do I change the font color for notes?
    Thanks.

    I see this post was submitted in 2006, it's now 2 years on
    and I have the same problem! Has anyone got a solution for this one
    since then? I am currently working Presenter v 6.0.432.

  • Keynote presenter notes cut off

    Help - when I print slides with presenter notes, my notes get cut off at the end of the page. Apart from making the font really tiny (which makes it difficult when I'm presenting), is there any workaround?

    I can print over 40 lines of text at 12 point if portrait is selected in the print dialogue box. There is an unnecessary blank space created by Keynote between the slide image and text but any more text than that you should use a text creation application, Edit Text, Pages, Word to print your text.

  • Presenter Notes formatting is lost

    The previous topic on this was closed. I am using Keynote '09 to generate training materials. Before I used Powerpoint with presenter notes, the output being a PDF file of the "Notes" pages. Using Keynote, however, every time I "print" to PDF the formatting of all my presenter notes is lost! All I want to do is have them be bulleted lists with a larger font, not anything too special or complex.
    So, (1) Why does Keynote loose my presenter notes formatting every time I print? This is obviously a bug.
    (2) Why can't I have a presenter notes format associated with a Master Slide? That way I could overcome problem (1) by reapplying the master file format to all my slides that have presenter notes.

    Welcome to Apple Discussions,
    I've tried the process you indicate and my PDFs still have the text formatted as expected (Font choice, font point size change, and bullets).
    You may have an issue with your Keynote presentation or with the Keynote Application.
    If you make a brand new presentation (just one slide will do) does the same thing happen when printed to PDF?
    I see in your profile you have 5 macs. If you try the same process in a new presentation on one of them, does the same thing happen?
    If the answer is yes, could you let me know the exact steps you take to add your text to the presenter notes. Or if you have MobileMe you can put a sample presentation that you don't mind sharing into your public folder and provide your member name so we can see the presentation.
    Cheers.

  • Saving reformated presenter notes

    Formatting notes: I am using PPT slides from older existing presentations and creating a new presentation using Keynote. I understand that in this case the presenter notes font has already been "set" for each slide, and there is no (easy) way to change this globally (in other words, it would require mucking about with the presentation XML file).
    Thus I use the Copy/Paste Style function to quickly change the format for each slides notes -- format one slide as I want, select the notes and choose "Copy Style" from the Format menu or Toolbar, then go to the slide you want to enter text on, click in the Presenter Note space, and choose "Paste Style". Once I've got the style "loaded", it is just a matter of clicking "Paste Style" before I type on each slide -- there is no need to re-copy the style.
    PROBLEM: when I go to save the Keynote file and then reopen, all my presenter notes have reverted back to the old style. It is as if I never when through the above steps to reformat the presenter notes. This is a bug! How do I fix this problem ASAP? It is driving me nuts.

    Erhm...
    What code are you using and what notes?The code is:
    public static void savphpfl(String thetxt) {  
    String flname = "ptxt.txt";      
    try {
    FileOutputStream s = new FileOutputStream(flname);
    ObjectOutputStream oos = new ObjectOutputStream(s);
    oos.writeInt(12245);
    oos.writeObject(thetxt);      
    oos.flush();
    s.close();
    } catch(IOException e) {}
    The text begin with: <html><head><title>Untitled</title></head>........
    Some of the undesired notes (characters) are: &#1501;
    There are another about 5 characters that for some strange reason are not being copied and pasted?. Among them are: a t S

  • How do you add/use typekit fonts that are not edge web fonts?

    I am just trying out the new Muse CC 2014.1 (August) release and was keen to try the new font facilities.  As far as I can see that while I can now add other fonts for which I have downloaded web font files via the Self Hosted Web Fonts function, Typekit fonts that are not "Adobe Edge Web Fonts" are effectively unavailable?  Have I missed something.
    As an example I want to use the Proxima Nova web font family.  I have selected it on the type kit site, set them up to Sync via my Creative Cloud account.  So for example if I select a font in Photoshop CC or Illustrator, the Proxima Nova fonts appear. Even ok in Word for Mac.  They do not appear in Muse.
    To add them as self hosted web fonts, I would need to physically download the relevant fonts files and install them on my desktop using the OS-X font tool.  However as they are being sync'd via Creative Cloud this shouldn't be necessary should it?  Also I don't see an option for doing so on the typekit site.
    Any help or guidance would be very welcome.
    PS:  I seem to have a separate issue with the Creative Cloud app, which is not listing fonts under the Assets tab.  But I don't think that is related as they are working fine for Photoshop, etc.

    Hi David,
    I'm sorry that you ran into trouble with this. To add fonts from Typekit to your Muse website, you will want to use the web fonts path instead of desktop fonts.  (You can use a desktop font synced from Typekit in your Muse design, but it will exported as an image the same as any other system font.)
    There are a couple options for using Typekit web fonts in Muse:
    o) The Muse Insider wrote a post on how to insert the Typekit embed code from the Muse interface:
    http://museinsider.com/how-to-add-typekit-fonts-to-your-muse-site.html
    o) Or you can add the embed code to the Page Properties dialog within Muse, which will include it in the <head> of the page when you export your website. The steps are the same as this tutorial, but you will add the Typekit embed code to Muse instead of into your page directly:
    TYPEKIT | Adding fonts to your site
    Note that in either case the Typekit fonts will not be displayed in the Muse preview window. You'll need to publish your site to a server in order for the Typekit fonts to be loaded into the page.
    If those look like more coding that you are comfortable with, you might try one of the fonts which you can select from the font menu instead. Here are some that are similar to :
    https://edgewebfonts.adobe.com/fonts#/?xHeight=high&contrast=low&class=sans-serif&width=re gular
    We are also working on a more complete integration of Typekit with Muse in the future, but I can't say yet when that will be available.
    >> PS:  I seem to have a separate issue with the Creative Cloud app, which is not listing fonts under the Assets tab.  But I don't think that is related as they are working fine for Photoshop, etc.
    Do you see a "loading" icon in the tab (e.g. a blue spinner wheel)?  It sounds similar to this thread; you might try these suggestions:

    I hope that this helps; let me know if you have any other questions.  Best,

  • When I convert my pdf doc to word, the fonts go really weird and it also puts some text into boxes. when I try to select the test and change the font, it does not change it properly?

    When I convert my pdf doc to word, the fonts go really weird and it also puts some text into boxes. when I try to select the text and change the font, it does not change it properly? This is making it impossible to amend.

    Hi Janedance1,
    If the PDF that you converted already has searchable text, please try disabling OCR as described in this document: How to disable Optical Character Recognition (OCR) when converting PDF to Word or Excel. (If the PDF was created from a scanned document and doesn't already have searchable text, disabling OCR isn't a great option, as the text won't be searchable/editable in the converted Word doc.)
    Please let us know how it goes.
    Best,
    Sara
