Fonts in Safari/Firefox appear bold italic

On certain sites, mostly news websites, in the headings and subheadings, the font now appears bold and italicized where it used to appear as a regular serif font. (assuming Times New Roman). In Safari 6 you can no longer (to my knowledge) choose the display font and sizes as possible in older versions).
I've run a check on my fonts with Font Book and Suitcase Fusion. Removed any problem fonts or duplicates that were located.
I've checked to see that all necessary fonts are still installed (Times New Roman, Times, Courier, Courier New, Arial, Helvetica) in regular/standard versions (compared to bold or italicized).
I replaced those fonts with a backup from before the problem arose.
So...it's obviously not browser specific. It seems like I'm simply missing a font. But I can't find one missing.
Any thoughts? I'm using OS 10.7.4 on a Mac Pro (2008). Thanks.

This was driving me crazy. Any site that was using Arial was displaying all the Arial in italics. This seemed to start immediately after I updated Safari with the most recent update. The first Apple Support person I spoke with had me trash my Safari preferences and restart but that didn't solve the problem. While on hold for an Apple Support supervisor, I looked around for a solution in my FontBook. (other posts I had read suggested that duplicate fonts might be the issue) I didn't find duplicate fonts so I checked the Arial font folder in my FontBook and found that Arial and Arial Bold had been turned off! (I don't use FontBook to manage my software, so I'm sure I didn't go in and intintionally turn them off)
Once I re-activated those fonts in FontBook everything displayed fine in Safari.

  • Bold text appears bold and italic

    Hi Folks,
    Can anyone please explain why this happens?
    In FW when I click the bold text button, the text appears bold but italic aswell.
    Thanks in advance

    That's unusual. Which version of Fireworks and what operating system are you using?
    If you click on the Faux Italic button, is the italic styling removed? (It should be. If not, click twice.) You might want to try quitting and restarting the application—or shutting down and restarting your computer—and see if this takes care of the problem.
    FYI: It's generally a better choice to add bolding via the Font Style dropdown menu, if that style is available within the currently selected font family.

  • How to use Baskerville bold italic font in iOS?

    So I want to use bold italic Baskerville. No matter what I do, it always shows up as regular in the device (without bold or italic). My code works fine on desktop.
    I've tried using TextFormat class properties, which work for fonts like Georgia or Helvetica, but it doesn't for Baskerville.
    textFormat.font = "Georgia";
    textFormat.bold = true;
    textFormat.italic = true;
    I've also tried using the official iOS name of the font which is "Baskerville-BoldItalic" nothing.
    I've listed all the fonts using this
    var allFonts:Array = Font.enumerateFonts(true);
    And it only lists the regular fonts, no bold or italic versions.
    Any ideas on how to make Baskerville render in bold or/and italic?
    TIA

  • Prob with chinese font bold, italic... in PDF report

    Hello everyone ! :D
    My symptoms (overview) : to create my RDF report, I'm using a font, simsun.ttf, wich allow me to view chineses and french characters. Everything is ok, except in PDF format, all the items remains in "normal" style.
    My configuration : Windows NT4 SP6a
    Report Builder 9.0.4.2
    Acrobat Reader 7.0
    Oracle Database 9.2.0.6
    In Detail : in report builder, every items (text fields, labels,...) are directly created with SimSun font. Some items are bold, some italic, ...
    If i generate the report in RTF format, my items bold, italic, ... are ok in Microsoft Word (SimSun Bold, ...). However, if i generate the report in PDF format, everything is in "normal" style.
    I changed the file UIFONT.ALI like this :
    [ PDF:Subset ]
    # This example shows how to subset Arial True Type font into the PDF file
    # Arial = "Arial.ttf"
    # The True Type font files must exist in any one of the folders specified in
    # REPORTS_PATH.
    SimSun..Italic.Bold.. = "SimSun.ttf"
    SimSun...Bold.. = "SimSun.ttf"
    SimSun..Italic... = "SimSun.ttf"
    SimSun..... = "SimSun.ttf"
    and also like that (just to try something else, but it does not change anything) :
    [ PDF:Subset ]
    # This example shows how to subset Arial True Type font into the PDF file
    # Arial = "Arial.ttf"
    # The True Type font files must exist in any one of the folders specified in
    # REPORTS_PATH.
    SimSun = "SimSun.ttf"
    Obviously, with an Arial font, we can map the different files Arialb.ttf, Arialbi.ttf, ... according to the desired font style we want, but with SimSun font, there is only one file : SimSun.ttf.
    Obviously, i have no choice for the font... I have to use SimSun.
    Anyway, if i take a look at my PDF, the used fonts (in file>property>fonts>) i can see several personnalized fonts, each one corresponding to a SimSun style (one for SimSun, Bold, an other for SimSun, BoldItalic, ...) but everything is the same style on screen.
    Does somebody have an idea??
    Thanks a lot !

  • Arial Bold Italic font - need

    Any bright individual have an idea where I can find this font?

    Snowyeti,
    I found a folder titled 13 with en_US after it, moved it, did nothing....
    That is not the folder in question. I believe you should move it back.
    Presuming you have CS3, the folder name should be Adobe Illustrator CS3 Settings.
    Similar for other versions from CS on.
    Can you access the Arial Bold Italic, and other styles, in other applications? If so, the issue is in Illy. If not, something may be missing in the Fonts folder (Window speak, I do not know the folder name in Mac), but that is more unlikely.

  • Some fonts in Safari not working

    After updating to Safari 3.1, I noticed that some fonts in Safari now display as Helvetica fractions. However, when I use Firefox to view the same Web page, they display fine. I am using Suitcase Fusion 12.1.6 and manage Local Fonts. Some of the local fonts do not appear in the preview pane and say they are missing. I have located them and tried to add them (repaired first, all fonts do not need repair) but Suitcase will crash each time I locate the font.
    Also, I noticed in Firefox that it is using the same fonts for the default set as Safari. Times & Courier. Yet these fonts aren't missing in Suitcase, so I am not sure what is happening here.

    I am using Suitcase Fusion 12.1.6
    12.1.7 is the current version. You should probably update.
    but Suitcase will crash each time I locate the font.
    Either the font is bad, or Suitcase's database is bad. That it tells you local fonts are missing points more towards a problem with Suitcase.
    To reset Suitcase, close the application. It will give you a minor warning about available fonts. Click Quit. If you are NOT using Suitcase's vault, in your user account, go to ~/Library/Application Support/Extensis/Suitcase/ and delete the file:
    Suitcase Font Database.suitcasevault
    In the Preferences folder of your user account, delete the file:
    com.extensis.SuitcaseFusion.plist
    Relaunch Suitcase. You will need to reset any preferences in the program that you have changed from the defaults. You will also lose any sets you've created.
    If you ARE using the vault, following the above steps will cause you to lose all fonts you've added to the vault. If you have backups of all of your fonts, this is no big deal. Otherwise, be forewarned that they will be gone. What you can do is move the database file to the desktop. Then if the problem with Suitcase continues, you've likely eliminated its database as the problem. Then you can quit the app again and move your original database back into the ~/Library/Application Support/Extensis/Suitcase/ folder.
    please tell me if I nuke my font caches, how will it affect Suitcase Fusion.
    It won't do anything to Suitcase. It doesn't even create them. For the most part, OS X builds your font cache files. If you remove them, the OS will rebuild them when you restart.

    Given below is report which i have achieved from vb6,adodb with MS access using iTextSharp
    I know that there has to be another way to solve my problem.I have browsed many articles in net regarding exporting sql datas to above format but with no success!
    Is there is any another way to solve to my problem on exporting sql datas from c# windows forms using iTextSharp to above format given in the picture/image above?!
    If so Then Can anyone tell me what modifications must i do in my c# code given above so that my pdf report from c# windows forms using iTextSharp will look similar to image/picture(pdf report) which i was able to accomplish from

    I have approached Sound Forge.Net for help but with no success.
    I hope anyone/someone truly understands what i am trying to ask!
    I know i have to do lot of modifications in my c# code to achieve this level of perfection but i dont know how to do it.
    Can anyone help me please! Any help/guidance in solving this problem would be greatly appreciated.

  • Fonts in Safari

    I recently upgraded to Leopard and I'm having a problem with fonts in Safari. What usually would appear as Trebuchet or Times is appearing as some strange font. I remember having this problem before Leopard (about 6 months ago) but cannot remember how I fixed it. And ideas?

    Does just disabling (rather than removing/trashing) potentially offending fonts work? I'm trying to solve this problem in a friend's 15-year-old-daughter's iBook, but i don't really want to arouse teenage ire by trashing all the grafitti-like fonts she's installed, and it'd take me too long to actually match exactly the font that's causing the problem (there's so many, and they're so similar). I'd rather just disable them all and let HER add them back in one at a time until the bad one is found.
    ps, upgrading the OS does seem to trigger this; in this case, it was going from Panther to Tiger that triggered it.

  • IWeb 3.0.4- missing fonts –Arial MT and Arial BOLD

    When using iWeb 3.0.4 I'll get the missing two fonts –Arial MT and Arial BOLD– error messages on every single page. This font is NOT in use and I don't have a working version as replacement on my font folder. I don't want to buy it to get rid of the problem. Anybody knows how can i get ride of those without using pacifist ? Thanks.

    I believe those fonts are Microsoft fonts.  Do you have MS Office or any other MS software installed?
    Try the following:
    delete the iWeb preference files, com.apple.iWeb.plist and com.apple.iWeb.plist.lockfile, that resides in your Home() /Library/Preferences folder. -  you've already tried this.
    go to your Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iWeb folder and delete its contents.
    Click to view full size
      3 - launch iWeb and try again.
    If that doesn't help continue with:
    move the domain file from your Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder to the Desktop.
    launch iWeb, create a new test site, save the new domain file and close iWeb.
    go to the your Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder and delete the new domain file.
    move your original domain file from the Desktop to the iWeb folder.
    launch iWeb and try again.
    It is now generally acknowledged that iWeb, and iDVD, has been discontinued by Apple. This is evidenced by the fact that new Macs are shipping with iLife 11 installed but without iWeb and iDVD.
    However, iWeb will still continue to work but without the following:
    Features No Longer Available Once MobileMe is Discontinued:
    ◼ Password protection
    ◼ Blog and photo comments
    ◼ Blog search
    ◼ Hit counter
    All of these issues can be solved with 3rd party options.
    I found that if I published my site to a folder on my hard drive and then uploaded with a 3rd party FTP client subscriptions to slideshows and the RSS feed were broken.  If I published directly from iWeb to the FPT server those two features continued to work correctly.
    There's another problem and that's with iWeb's popup slideshows.  Once the MMe servers are no longer online the popup slideshow buttons will not display their images.
    Click to view full size
    However, Roddy McKay and I have figured out a way to modify existing sites with those slideshows and iWeb itself so that those images will display as expected once MobileMe servers are gone.  How to is described in this tutorial: #26 - How to Modify iWeb So Popup Slideshows Will Work After MobileMe is Discontinued.
    It now appears that the iLife suite of applications offered on disc is now a discontinued product and the remaining supported iApps will only be available thru the App Store from now on. However, the boxed iLife 11 still available at the online Apple Store (Store button at the top of the page) and those still on the shelves of retailers will include iWeb and iDVD. Those two apps were listed in small, gray text on the iLife 11 box that I bought.
    Personally, if I already didn't have a copy I would purchase one to have it for reinstallation purposes if ever needed.

  • Typekit font (Arvo) only displaying in bold weights...

    Hi, I began a site with the Muse free trial. At the end of my trial I bought a subscription. However, I've ran into a fairly significant issue with typekit now that I've subscribed. For some reason, it will only display the font Arvo ( https://typekit.com/fonts/arvo ) in it's bold weights. It doesn't matter whether I choose to use Arvo regular or Arvo bold, it only displays as bold. Same goes for the Italic as well, only bold italic not the regular weight.
    Is there any fix for this?

    Creating new text boxes and typing new text fixes the issue. Now I just have to recreate dozens of text boxes and enter all of the text in fresh.
    I'm curious as to what caused the problem though. Also, if that text is copy/pasted into any new text frame the font weight for the new text frame locks to bold and becomes unchangeable.
    Not sure if it's relevant, but none of my text frames were behaving this way before I applied my subscription; the trial was probelm free for me.
    Alright, the issue was that the text frames had bold applied to them, however I didn't apply that to any of them. They looked markedly different in my project using the trial than they did when I upgraded to the full subscription. I now know this is because bold was randomly applied to all of my text boxes. Is this a known issue?
    Sorted now though.
    Many thanks,
    Chris
