Foreign Font formatting problem

I'm using Pages 1.0
When I use a foreign font in my document many of the punctuation keys on the keyboard are used for letters in this language, and it appears that Pages recognizes them still as punctuation and does automatic formatting accordingly. For example, the hyphen key and semicolon key are letters in the language I'm using but Pages keeps putting line breaks and hypens there, thus messing up my document with automatic formatting. I know how to turn off the hypens, but is there a way to turn off all automatic formatting?
Thanks for any help.

However, I
don't quite understand the difference between
keyboard layouts and various language fonts. When I
activate the mongolian keyboard layout, no matter
which font I choose, it basically looks the same.
How do you get Mongolian fonts to work with the
mongolian keyboard layout.
Any Mongolian fonts you have from the past that are coded to replace Latin and thus work with the US layout will not work with the keyboard you downloaded, which works only with Unicode fonts (the basis for OS X operations in general). So if you want different fonts than Lucida Grande, you will need to download some of those mentioned, or if you have Office2004 installed I think these should work: Arial, Monaco, Times, and Times New Roman. You can tell which fonts on your system have the right characters by using Character Palette (Edit > Special Characters) and checking the font variation pane for 04af and 04e9. A better list of fonts is at:

Foreign language format problem

Hi,
I have a glossary of Tibetan words that was made in MS Excel using a form of transliteration in Latin characters, and now I want to update it using Tibetan fonts, which I use in Pages.
So long as I am clicked in the cell, the word displays correctly. The moment I move to the next cell it falls apart (Tibetan words are often composed of glyphs and stacks with multiple components). I use a commercial Unicode font.
How can I make this function properly? It would be very useful to show the Tibetan characters. I have selected the column and chosen the font and size etc - so it works but is useless!
Best wishes

I use XenoType (New and Drepung) and yes, the problem appeared with Kokonor and Kailasa as well. The same thing occurred when I tried to use a vocabulary testing program as a widgit some time ago.
I have now duplicated your problem. It must be a bug of some sort. I seem to be able to get the characters to hold together if I copy/paste them into cells from another document without changing the font in Numbers, but not sure if that is reliable or useful.
Well, since I would have to type the words first in Pages, I might as well use the table format in Pages too - and maybe then import the whole things into Numbers later. Certainly Numbers would be helpful to use as it handles the cells so much better.
And this happens quite often on the internet too - I can never quite pin it down but sometimes webpages won't display Tibetan properly.
What does one do about bugs? I'm surprised now that Apple is supporting Tibetan fonts.

Problems exporting rollover 'states' into Dreamweaver, and loss of font formats

Hi
I am quite new to Fireworks and am having a little difficulty with some aspects of it.
I am building a miltiple page site, and am exporting using the the 'export CSS and Images' option from Fireworks CS4 to Dreamweaver CS4.
I have applied some 'swap image behaviour' to the links on the Master Page.
However When I try to export to Dreamweaver I get the following message:
"Only sliced images from the current state will be included in this export. Hotspot and behaviour attributes will be ignored."
Obviously I want the states (swap image) functionality to be exported so that the javascript rollovers work. Any ideas how to resolve this?
Also, when I export the pages into Dreamweaver, I have noticed that the font formatting is lost e.g. <h1> format style etc So an orange <h1> font title, with black outline, will not retain that formatting in Dreamweaver (it actually renders as white, which is the same as the <p> font elements.). I do know how to alter the CSS to render a different colour in Dreamweaver: but its the character outline that I cannot reproduce by manipulating the CSS (I don't know how to anyway....).
Also, once a 'Master' page has been created, will all other pages within the document automatically inherit the functions and settings as per the Master Page. Or do I need to link each page to the Master Page in order for them to inherit its functionality and settings? I'm particuarly thinking about the states/rollover issue again here i.e. Will I need to set under/over states on each individual page or do I just need to set it once on the Master page?
Thanks for your help.

Q1: There. Is no way to resolve this in Fireworks. You'll have to export the other states manually and build the rollovers in dreamweaver.
Q2: Again, *if* there us a widely supported CSS option fir text outlining you have tomanually apply it to the code in Dreamweaver.
Q3: Hyperlinks and graphics on the master page should be applied to all child pages.
Fireworks is not a true web page editor. Keep this in mind. It is a graphics tool fulirst and foremost. The CSS and HTML features are not nearly as robust as Dreamweaver. Hope this helps

How to find a word with different font format (e.g. italic and regular in one word)

Hi people,
I need to find a word, prefferably using GREP or simple Find/Replace tool.
Sometimes, when I get source text to paste into InDesign, some word's format is messed up. First letter is italic and rest is regular or otherwise (or any other font format). How can I find such words automatically. For example:
Example
would really appreciate any help.

Hi,
If I had to do that, using Multi-Find/Change, I would play it like:

Format problem when export to RTF

Hi,
Iam creating a RTF template, when export to pdf everything working fine. However, when i export to RTF(word) alot of document properties got lost such as :
font size default to 12 when it's blank line; page number are not re-start for multi sections; table properties not holding, header, footer and edge margin are not holding, etc...... Is there any way to fix these. I tried to create a word macro to fix some of the format problems, but the macro have to run manually instead of initialized form a text field option on exit. Any idea on how to fix or work around would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Tam

Do you know if and when Pages will provide support for tables in rtf format? (My school requires that I send all assignments rtf format.)
As Yvan points out, no one here can write what they know about it, and the vast majority of us know nothing about it.
You cannot take any decision based on the assumption that Pages will one day support tables in RTFs, because it may never happen. If you need both RTF and tables, the only option is another tool (like NeoOffice, TextEdit, MS Office and so on).

Font formats unexpectedly changed

Hello... there is a strange issue on Q10 tasks sync, tasks font formats (type/ size) unexpectedly changed after editing/ updating on Q10.
1. Create a new task on Outlook 2010 (with Exchange 2010), using default Calibri font, task is sync to Q10.
2. Open the task on Q10 for editing, updated its content with the default Q10 font, all font formats looks standard.
3. Open the task on Outlook, those lines updated with Q10 have different font formats (type/ size) which not the standard looks.
Any idea what is not right? Is this a Blackberry bug? Thanks.

someotherguy and Duck3, you both appear to be right. My Programs and Features list (formerly Add/Remove Programs) shows I installed "Windows Live Essentials 2011" on 11/18 (though I don't recall what Live module I would have wanted that day), and the automatic updating started 11/19 or 11/20. I also installed "Adobe Flash Player 11 Plugin 64-bit" on 11/19, could that have done it instead?
When I do install new software, I generally choose the "Custom" path so I can choose the settings, and I try to read all messages and consider all check boxes carefully. So whatever program flipped my Windows Update settings, I don't think it asked me first and that is sneaky, underhanded behavior.
I welcome all further thoughts and suggestion on this problem, and thank you for your help.

Font formatting differs in IE and FF

Hi,
If I make changes to the font color in a page it displays OK
in IE but not in FF. Please see attached link for an example:
http://www.originindustries.com/Assets/Toshaplio2.htm.
I am sure I am making a simple mistake but I am not an experienced
designer. Hope someone can help.
Andrew

don't worry, you'll probably pick it up as you go along. i
only started
using css about a year ago, and i look back at some of the
first stuff i
did and it's horrendous! but it's to be expected when you're
teaching
yourself something like this. you're not going to be perfect
at it from
the start, and you'll get better with practice. just keep at
it!
and make sure you learn as much as you can about html so that
you'll be
able to look at your code and see what the problem is when
stuff like
this happens.
good luck!

ITunes 10.1.6.7 update has broken my foreign font display - Asian characters are now squares. How do I fix this?

The iTunes 10.1.6.7 update has broken my foreign font display - Asian characters are now squares.
They are fine on my iPhone, copying to other documents & through the Last FM scrobbler, yet iTunes shows songs incorrectly. I've fiddled with the ID3/Unicode settings - nothing changes.
For example: iTunes shows a bunch of squares, yet when I copy and paste them here it becomes ~ 일렉트로보이즈
This was not a problem earlier - everything was fine in the four years or so I've used iTunes until, I believe, this update. If it was not the update, I'm not sure what else it could be?
Any suggestions on how to fix this? Thank you!

Thank you so much! I vigorously searched around these parts and the general internet before posting and found nothing - it's so simple, too
Hahaha, turns out it was Windows, not iTunes, that broke my font

Can you help me with FontExplorer font activation problems?

Anyone know how to solve a font activation problem I am having with FontExplorer 4.2? I am on a new mac with new fonts, I am using Maverick with Adobe CS6. With my new mac I bought the latest version of FontExporer Pro X 4.2. This program is having trouble with font activation in all my Adoble suite apps including Indesign. Here is what I am seeing:
1. The font activates, but the Adobe app does not recognize that it is active. If I go back to Font Explorer and deactivate manually, then re-activate manually. The adobe app might then recognize it. Sometimes it still doesn't. But this does not stay permanently, as soon as I do a restart I have to go through this process again. I see this more often with the User system fonts, but a few times with my regular fonts.
2. Other times, such as in Indesign, I go to open the file and the file stalls and doesn’t progress while it is trying to activate the fonts.
3. Another time I have seen after an illustrator file is opened the fonts aren't recognized as being opened and the text goes blank on the page.
4. In all adobe apps, if I go to use "replace font" on the missing fonts (even though they are turned on) the "replace font" menu only shows the basic system fonts, it won't show me the other fonts turned on.
I have seen these issues with both formerly created files and fresh new files.
I have tried the following based on feedback from Font Explorer staff:
Refresh your Spotlight database
1. Quit all applications other than FontExplorer X
2. Choose Tools > Refresh Spotlight Database
Clean your font caches
1. Quit all applications other than FontExplorer X 2. Choose Tools > Clean Application Font Caches (check all available checkboxes)
3. Choose Tools > Clean System Font Caches (requires restart)
Still after trying this multiple times, the errors continue and even get more random.
I have also tried this based on their feedback:
go to FONTEXPLORER X PRO -> PREFERENCES -> ADVANCED and make sure that "Automatically deactivate fonts which have not been activated by the system" is NOT set to never.
Then click on TOOLS and clean all font caches. Then reboot the system.
The auto-activation is using a new Apple technology (called Core Text), which unfortunately does not work correctly with some of the Adobe and Quark applications when keeping the fonts permanently activated. We are currently working on an update, and the next version of FontExplorer X Pro will fix this issue.
This has also not work. Can anyone help me?

Here is the official work-around for this problem.
1. Locate "FontExplorer X Pro.app" in Applications
2. Right-click on "FontExplorer X Pro.app" and select "Show Package Contents"
3. Navigate to /Contents/Helpers/
4. Double-click "FontExplorerXLauncher-3.app" or right-click and "Open" to launch it manually. This is needed only once, afterwards the plugins will work normally.
Please make sure you open the version with the "-3" suffix, the other one does not fix the problem.

I created a pdf form from a Word doc with 9 pt aerial font formatting; the text on the pdf form is aerial 9 pt, but the fields are formatted in courier 12 pt - How do I reformat the font in the fields??

You can set up a temporary button (or link, bookmark, etc.) and add the following JavaScript action:
// Mouse Up script for a temporary button (or bookmark, etc.)
// Change the font and font size for all text fields in this document
for (var i = 0; i < numFields; i += 1) {
    var f = getField(getNthFieldName(i));
    if (f.type === "text") {
        f.textFont = font.Helv;
        f.textSize = 9;
It also sets the font size, but you can remove that line if you don't need to do that.

Hi Vasu,
Not in the Mapping of IR.
In BIC Mapping Designer you have to test with the standard Mappings by providing the sample file whether the Conversion is happening correctly or not.
You have to take the same input file that what ever you are having now.
So that it will say clearly what is the problem in converting the XMLto the required EDI Format...
Check whether you have any Date Format Values are comming from the input file.

Font embedding problem PPT plugin Acrobat 9 Pro

Hi,
having just updated to Acrobat 9 Pro I encounter a font embedding problem when using the PowerPoint plugin (PPT2007) to create a PDF of my presentation. I am working under Windows 7 (64Bit) and use fonts from Mathematica (Wolfram). The generated PDF shows problems displaying the fonts, indicating that they have not been embedded (although font embedding of these fonts is set in the options). The problem does not occur if I directly print to the PDF printer - here all Mathematica fonts are correctly embedded (but this has other disadvantages since videos/animations are not integrated). The problem seems to be specific to Acrobat 9 since under Acrobat 8 everything worked correctly as well.
Any ideas/solutions for that issue?
Thanks & best regards
Ralf

Perhaps you may need to upgrade to version 9.2 (Acrobat support of Windows 7 begins at this dot release)?
Be well...

My scenerio iam posting IDOC to a flat file with content conversion in the receiver side,the mapping got executed successfully and in the audit log i found that the error was after the 'Start converting XML document content to plain text'.
This means that error occured during content conversion of XML to the prescribed file format.
Can anyone suggest any better approach using which we may trace the junk data in IDoc. Manual adhoc approach could take time and is error prone.
Thanks in advance...

Hi Bhavesh,
Thanks for the early reply. I checked the mapping and everything is fine and the output is also in valid XML format.
