Fonts on Linux

Hi *,
I'm using SQL Developer on Suse 9.2.
I was wondering how SQL Developer decides which fonts to use for the menu's, dialogs, etc... they look a bit sad here. Is it the JVM who decides. I don't think these fonts can be configured in a preferences box, or are they?...
Thx!
J.

They can not currently be changed and yes it is the JVM that is deciding what is used. I think there's a parameter for the vm to change this but I can't find it right now. Maybe someone else knows it?

  • How to use chinese big5 fonts in Linux with Java 2 1.4.0.01? Please help me

    Hello
    I just trying to run a java program in Mandrake Linux 8.2. Everythings work well except the fonts. I did read this page
    http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.3/docs/guide/intl/fontprop.html
    but the problem still there.
    Because I don't know how to modify the fonts.properties file. Java seem not support a world language version in Linux. (Although it support in Windows.)
    Then I tired to use the windows file, fonts.properties.xh_TW, to replace the fonts.properties in j2sdk in Linux. But it doesn't work.
    Please help me by either show me how to modify the fonts.properties file or direct me where to download a Big5 fonts in Linux version. Thanks a lot!!!

    Sorry I have been out of for a long time.
    If you already follow all the step of Locale help online,
    may be your font.dir in your /usr/lib/X11/fonts/TrueType/fonts.dir is not as
    the alias it was expected.
    take a look of that file.
    In xtt for chinese, there may be short cut like vl=y as such, because java
    render the font directly getting info from the fonts.dir so if the font filename
    is not as expected, you will not able to load the fonts. What you need to do is
    ln -s realfont vl=y:realfont
    to link the font to the make java think the name of the font is actually vl=y:realfont.
    Let me know you get it.

  • Chinese Font in Linux

    I am able to display the fonts in windows successfully. Chinese fonts are installed in linux as I am able to view chinese pages in mozilla. But I am not able to display unicode characters on JWindow or JLabel in Linux. What are the chinese charsets that can be used. Also I feel that the font MingLiu I am using in windows is not there in Linux. Which are the chinese fonts in Linux. I have the ttf files gbsn001p.ttf, zysong.ttf in my linux system. Is that the font name?
    Thanks and regards...

  • How can I get the TOC to display ALWAYS in a Sans-Serif Font in Linux/Firefox.

    I've created my help project in RH9.  When it displays in Linux/Firefox, the fonts in the topics are fine, but the TOC displays in Times New Roman.  Is there a setting in RH9 that I need to use to keep this from happening?

    Hi,
    Did you change the setting in the skin? What font have you set for the TOC? Perhaps you set a font that is not available on linux so make sure that you use a web safe font.  For more information on web safe fonts, see http://www.w3schools.com/cssref/css_websafe_fonts.asp
    You can also tinker with your output files. In whthost.js, you can amend the CSS that RoboHelp uses for the TOC. you can add a rule for a sans-serif font the browser can fall back on. See http://www.wvanweelden.eu/webhelp_output_files/whthostjs for more information on the whthost.js file.

  • Report font in linux

    Hello!
    I use Courier font for my report (in Hebrew).
    I design the report on windows and then deploy it on linux.
    When i run the report i do see the text in my fields, but in titles i see ??? instead of the text.
    What can be a problem?

    thanks for your reply.
    Is there any other way in Java webapplication to load fonts dynamically? Not with AWT/SWING API.
    It seems Java is automatically loading the fonts from /jre/lib/fonts directory.
    Is there any other Java WebApplication location to load fonts automatically?

  • Replacement of true type fonts on Linux

    I have developed a report with Reports 6i on a Windows NT client
    using the font "Times New Roman". When I generate the report on
    a Linux (Suse 7.2) to a PDF-file then the font is replaced by
    the font "itc avant garde gothic" although I can select the
    font "Times New Roman" in the "Control Center" of KDE.
    Can someone tell me why Reports is replacing the font ?
    Thanks.

    Aren't the real questions:  What font are you attempting to send to the Zebra printer?  What true type fonts does your model Zebra printer support?
    You should look at Google with "True type Font Zebra"...you would find this reference to Zebra with SmartForms, which is indicative of how you should proceed, probably:

  • Fonts in Linux

    Hello,
    when I compile my aplication in Linux, somre JLabels that contains the degree simbol (º) doesn't show properly,
    a litle square is show instead of the simbol.
    I don't use a specific Font for the labels. What can I do to make the JLabels show the correct symbol?
    I've tried to use the ascii code for the symbol, but the code 167 shows another symbol completely different (that's the code I found on internet)

    Desiree wrote:
    a litle square is show instead of the simbol.That usually means that the font doesn't have a glyph for the symbol. That's rather strange, for such a common character.
    I've tried to use the ascii code for the symbol, but the code 167 shows another symbol completely different (that's the code I found on internet)There is no [ASCII character|http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ASCII] for this character. There is a Unicode character however and it's U+00B0 (176 in decimal, "\u00b0" in Java String literals).

  • How to keep Same Windows Font on Linux !!!!!

    Hi,
    I am migrating Oracle 6i Windows reports to Oracle 11g Linux reports. When I open reports in 11g, It changes the font name and it size.
    Is there any possibility to keep same font name and size in 11g Linux?
    Regards,
    Yousuf

    I see what you're saying, finder is hardly an application that is like any other application you may use on your computer, however, it is an application and doesn't need to be running for your computer to work.
    Just one less thing that can cause your whole computer to crash if it should fail, unlike some other OS's out there
    In either case, this should be the fix for your problem.
    You could attempt to file feedback with apple for them to consider changing this, since reopening finder is not like reopening other apps since you never really quit finder natively, you relaunch it.
    However I'm glad I could shed light on how to get what you wanted back the way you wanted it.

  • [SOLVED]How to install this font : it doens't seem available for Linux

    Hi everyone,
    I'm currently running Gnome, and I'm trying to have the same theme than here : http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/ … ent=108433. I've installed and used the Hydra theme : no problems with that.
    The only thing I miss now is his font, I read the comments, and it's said the font used is "Zero Threes", they give a link (it's on page 2 if you want to check) : http://www.urbanfonts.com/fonts/Zero_Threes.htm
    The problem is the font seems to be available on Mac and Windows, but I coulnd't find it for Linux. But the guy seem to have Linux and he's using it, so could somebody explain to me how can I get the font for linux ? Or if there is a way to install a Windows or a Mac font in Linux ?
    Thanks you in advance !

  • Fonts for RedHat Linux

    The Adobe font store lists fonts for Windows and Mac.  What about fonts for Linux?
    We are using LaTeX on RedHat Linux and a requirement is to use the Adobe Univers 57 Condensed font family in a report I am generating.
    The IT department is leaning towards requiring use of Type 1 fonts rather than allowing use of OpenType fonts.
    Which Type 1 product (Mac or Windows)  do we need to license for use on Linux?  And just in case they allow OpenType fonts, which OpenType product (Mac or Windows)  do we need to license for use on Linux?
    Is there anything else we need to consider in regards to using Adobe Fonts on Linux?  Same for use with LaTeX on Linux?

    You can almost certainly use Windows Type 1 fonts in your Linux app (though some require .AFM files, these are also supplied with the fonts, even though Windows doesn't need them).
    On the OpenType side, the fonts are the same files for Mac and Windows.
    Your only complication is that to use the Adobe download manager and get the files in the first place, you may have to do the purchase from either Windows or Mac OS.

  • Fonts issue on 10g Reports (Linux)

    A while back I posted some questions about installing fonts on Linux RHEL 5.
    Currently, I'm in process of upgrading Client/Server Forms/Reports from 6i on a Windows platforms to 10g forms/reports on a Linux RHEL5 platform. No database is installed on the server since we are using the TNSNames in the Network Admin to connect to the database.
    I have been able to convert all forms and all reports to 10g. I had an issue with the Arial, Arial Narrow, and Courier New fonts not displaying in output when I generated a PDF file via the screen using the WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT command. The fonts were translating. I was able to use Metalink Note 261879.1 and run the scripts to generate the AFM files and copy the TTF fonts to the appropriate directories. When I run the reports in 10g on Linux, those 3 fonts display just fine.
    However, I have 3 other fonts (Monotype Sorts, Arial Unicode MS, and one of Barcode fonts) that I need to get working. I've worked with Oracle Support and I'll be honest, the steps they are telling me either aren't very clear or just flat out aren't right.
    I've tried on Windows to use the ttf2pt1 program to generate the AFM files and copied those up to guicommon/tk/admin/AFM directory. I've copied the TTF file up to the associated directory. I've modified the uifont.ali directory to include the font, to no success.
    Has anyone tried to move a Windows font up to Linux (Unix) and got it to work successfully? If so, could you provide me some steps? I've really been trying to get this to work and would do anything at this point to get it to work. I've got about 5 reports that use these 3 fonts and if I get them working, I'm done.
    Please provide good detail, if possible. Oracle Support has just confused me more by providing notes to read and little tidbits here and there but haven't given me something that works in a straightforward manner.

  • Linux applicatio​n fonts

    Reposted from erroneous post on Labwindows/CVI - sorry
    I am having the problem of different font behaviour when transferring applications from windows to linux.  After trying various things without much success I am left with some questions:-
    1      The help files in LV 8.2 say that the default font in linux for application, system and dialog is helvetica.  If this is not installed is there any way of finding which font has been chosen by Labview?
    2      The 'Tools->Options->Fonts' menu gives a list of fonts that have little relation to the fonts actually installed on the PC, where does this come from?
    3      I have tried defining fonts in the .labviewrc file using the "labview.appFont:" parameter.  Is this supposed to become the default font overriding what is selected by labview as in 1?  It apparently has no effect in my application.  
    I would be grateful for any information

    Hi jbroughton,
    I hope your well today.
    As promised I have had a look into your questions:
    1) Regarding what happens if labVIEW can't find the default?
    A) LabVIEW will still indicate the original font in the font ring.
    However, since the font is not available on the system, LabVIEW will
    actually use the Application Font.
    What Happens if LabVIEW Cannot Find a Particular Font for a VI?
    http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/B9106029B7E​13AD5862565FA00743376?OpenDocument
    2) More info on fonts in labVIEW (is in a KB, but link is broken so...)
    <><><><>
    In terms of fonts, LabVIEW has three default fonts that it uses:
    Application, System, and Dialog fonts. The following is a breakdown of
    where these default fonts are used and how they map to the fonts on
    various operating systems:
    Application Font:
    LabVIEW default font used in Controls/Functions palettes and new controls.
    (Windows) The U.S. version of Windows usually uses Arial. The size
    depends on the settings of the video driver, because you can frequently
    set up higher resolution video drivers to use Large Fonts or Small
    Fonts.
    - (Macintosh) LabVIEW uses the same font used in the
    Finder for file names for the Application font, which on the U.S.
    Macintosh system is Geneva.
    - (UNIX) LabVIEW uses Helvetica by default.
    System Font
    LabVIEW font for menus.
    - (Windows) Windows uses Helvetica, with the size dependent upon the video driver.
    - (Macintosh) Thus, LabVIEW normally uses Chicago.
    - (UNIX) LabVIEW normally uses Helvetica for this font.
    Dialog Font
    LabVIEW font for text in dialog boxes.
    - (Windows) This font is a bold version of the Application font.
    - (Macintosh) This font is the same as the System font.
    - (UNIX) On HP-UX, this font is the same as the System font. LabVIEW normally uses Helvetica for this font.
    <><><><><><>><><>

  • Font Issue in Reports Developer 10g Linux

    Dear Members,
    I am facing a problem while migrating the reports from 6i to 10g Linux. When I migrate any report in 10g Linux, I have to set the format and font name along with its size.
    Is there any way to have the same font and size after migrating?
    I have to migrate more than 300 reports and it will take so much time to set the formatting once again.
    Please send me the steps to configure the font in Linux or send me any meta-link note #
    With kind regards,
    Muhammad Yousuf.

    hello,
    You have to check first the fonts you are using in your reports and from there you can either install them on your AS or make your reports compatible with your deployment platform etc...
    Please check www.degenio.com as I have documented the problems we had when deploying our reports on UNIX.
    Thanks

  • Arial font substitution for (LabVIEW for) Linux

    Hello,
    as LabVIEW was not capable of keeping the font size and spacing constant when running a VI under different Windows versions, screen resolutions etc, I have never used the "application", "system" and "dialog" font options in LabVIEW but have fixed all fonts to Arial 14 pt. This worked wonderful on all Windows systems - without that unnerving problem that control lables overwrite each other and things like that (what always happened when using LabVIEWs "application" font option).
    Now, when running the same VIs under LabVIEW for Linux, the font looks terrible, as there is no Arial font in Linux. Does somebody know an easy way to solve this problem without setting all fonts to "application font" in LabVIEW? For instance, any "ini file type" setting in Linux telling the operating system which font to use when Arial is not present, or any free font substitution that we could add to our installer routine that the operating system would use automatically instead of Arial?

    Unfortunately, your problem is a version of a generic problem faced by GUI programmers of all types - how do you handle varying system fonts?  There are various solutions, based on who your customers are.  You are using one of the easy ones that works well until you start doing cross-platform development.  The main options are, in order or increasing complexity:
    Lock the font to a specific font and size.  This works well if your customers are limited to a single platform and are not visually impaired (do not want to use large fonts).
    Use system fonts and allow extra space.  This is a compromise that only works in most cases.  Use about 50% extra for small strings and 10% - 20% for larger strings.  This also gives you extra space for localization, should you need it.  Visually impaired customers will run into space issues, because large fonts can be 2X or more larger than the default, system fonts.  Note that the different Windows variants have different font sizes as well.  Windows Vista increased default font sizes, especially for some Asian languages, such as Japanese.
    Query the font size on entry into a GUI VI and rescale everything appropriately.  This is hard, since it must be done for every VI with a GUI.  Some system dialogs do not handle large fonts well, so you will probably end up replacing them with your own versions to get good appearance.  You could probably write a system to handle this sort of scaling, but to my knowledge, no one has (please prove me wrong ).  I have always used custom code when needed.
    No one really does this well.  Change your system font on a Windows OS to large fonts and note all the problems you run into.  I would recommend option 2, unless you have a lot of extra time.  Your customers will love you if you pull off option 3.
    More tips to help.
    Do your development on the platform with the largest system fonts.  If this is not possible, change the LabVIEW system fonts of your development system to match the largest size you support.  I usually develop using 13pt Verdana, since it is one of the largest of the variable spaced fonts.
    Check your work by using large fonts in Windows.  If it looks good there, it will probably be OK for most uses.
    Good luck!
