Funny characters within my text when uploaded

Hello, I have published my website to a folder and uploaded through Fetch. I used only Arial font in my design. When I view the website in any browser - so far i've tried safari and internet explorer, I have "funny characters" within my text. It seems to mostly occur after, or in place of, a punctuation mark. The characters look like white question marks in a dark diamond.
I'm fairly new to iWeb. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
Cheers!
Lilly

hmmm, I just tried changing the preferences in fetch.
Please read the link you were given again. The very first lines tell what to do depending on what kind of character you are seeing. The Fetch thing is when you see question marks. Is that your case? If not, do the other one.
do you think it could be the server I'm uploading to?
If you are seeing something other than question marks, yes, as the link says.

  • I have a 5c and just updated to ios 8.2. NO VOICE TO TEXT when uploading pics to emails and was there on old software.

    I have a 5c and just updated to iOS 8.2. NO VOICE TO TEXT when uploading to an email and use to have it, Steps>take photo>select the photo on bottom left of camera screen>select upload icon>hit mail icon>input address.>select subject or main body, I have no MIC icon to select voice to text. Is there a setting or is it a bug.
    I use this function all the time to uplaod images for emailing work related photos daily. the voice to text was great for subject and more info in the body section of the email. Pleae since it is a great time saver for me and tool can i get assistance on fixing it.

    When you do an update via a computer's iTunes the update process will backup the device (a backup doesn't contain the actual apps, just their content/settings), wipe the device, install the update, and then restore the backup - the restore would look to pick up your apps, music, films etc from the iTunes library.
    You've tried logging out (tap on your id at the bottom of the Featured tab in the App Store app) and back in and seeing if they then show in the Purchased tab, and you could also check to see if the apps are hidden from Purchased : iTunes Store: Hiding and unhiding purchases.
    If an app is no longer in the store then you won't be able to redownload it. You haven't got copies of your apps in your own computer's iTunes library and/or on your backup of your downloads/library ?

  • Editable .pdf not showing edited text when uploaded to printer

    I created a form for company business cards so that employees could fill in their own info. Everyone has Reader, so i figured it would work. When I uploaded the filled-in form to various printing sites (I tried several), the text was gone. I feel like there's a simple solution, I just don't know what it is.

    I have run into this with something I am doing.  Vistaprint doesn't show the preview with the form data, nor does my iPad.  But Outlook (as a preview), Adobe Reader/Acrobat, and Staples Canada Print & Copy all DO show the preview with the form data.
    I am curious to see if Vistaprint would actually print with the form data or not, but instead I just switched to Staples for this need. For those needing Vista, I suggested a program like CuteFTP Writer which I have used in previous jobs for those without the full Adobe suite.

  • Weird characters appear in text when I send email to a PC

    All
    When I send an email to a recipient using a PC vs an Apple product.
    I have provided a sample of the weird characters that are NOT typed in but show up in the text.  I see it AFTER it is sent out to the recipient.
    It does NOT happen all the time.
    Thanks for any help.
    Hey JoeŠ
    Haven¹t we seen this company before while responding to these DAS projects? 
    They are  they Œinterested vendors¹ for the DOE job.

    Start copying yourself on outgoing mail. If you don't see the extra characters in your copy of the sent message, then the problem is at the recipient's end.

  • How to put more than 1200 characters in a text form within a pdf created in Adobe Acrobat

    I need to know how to put more than 1200 characters in a text form within a pdf created in Adobe Acrobat. I have a request from a customer to do so and after googling I have came up with nothing. Also the customer would like it if they could convert said pdf form to a microsoft word document with the text form.

    There's no limit on the number of characters you can enter into a text
    field, unless you set it as such.

    When I copy and paste text in facebook, the text looks fine until I hit 'share' or 'comment' to submit it. Firefox then adds indiscriminate line-feeds within the text and it looks nothing like the original text. It makes it very difficult to read and awful to look at.
    This does not happen in Safari.
    (Mac OSX 10.6.4 with Firefox 3.6.6).
    == URL of affected sites ==
    http://

    Same problem, 3.6.8 and previous recent versions. I never thought to try another browser but I just pasted into IE and it worked fine. I copied from Firefox to IE and it worked as well. It's just when you paste into Firefox that you get the weird line breaks.

  • Not able to use the Tab key to Tab indent when within a text edit window...

    Two questions please... First one is above for the tab function. In Safari I just need to press control+option+tab to indent a tab within a text edit box on a website. This function is being used more via cloud and mobile capability.
    Second... I can, in Safari, Copy and paste a site with tables. Works great in Safari. When I try to do this in FF I lose the formatting of the tables and it just give plain text without the tabled fields.
    I would love to use FF because the compatibility if much greater than Safari, but... I need my functionality as well to do my work to the best and quickest ability.
    Thank you

    Help About says I'm on 20.0.1
    Up until last week, I was able to use the tab key when typing emails and other multi-line text boxes.
    Suddenly the behavior of the tab key changed. This isn't the first time. It's been quite a while ago that the function of the tab key changed from indenting to moving around the page, then after some time it changed back to indenting.
    Can we get this fixed and leave it alone, please?
    I may give one of those add-ins a try, but my problem with add-ins is that they break when FF is patched or upgraded, then I'm left with out the solution they provide.
    Can we just fix Firefox, please?
    Thanks,
    Frank
    P.S. Another potential fix I came across suggested starting FF in safe mode to see if the problem goes away. It does not. It seems to be a change to FF that appeared after an update last week. On or just befor 24 Apr.

  • I have created a book in ibooks author with a custom font when previewing on the ipad the special characters within the font do not appear?

    I have created a book in ibooks author with a custom font when previewing on the ipad the special characters within the font do not appear?

    'custom' font sounds like you may be working with a font that is unsupported on iOS/iPad.
    Supported fonts are found in the pull-down font menu in the toolbar. Authors are obligated (mostly) to stick to that list.

  • UTF-8 encoding Funny characters in DB

    Dear All,
    I am Facing a Critical issue which has been lagging, dragging
    from 3 days, still couldn't figure out an issue
    I've an XML file which am Getting it from a Server using
    <cffile action="READ" file="#application.settings.paths"
    variable="xml" charset="utf-8">
    and using an XMLPARSE to parse that xml and trying to insert
    that xml data into Database, in XML i've these
    characters master
    ’s, which should be like a single quote
    encoded like this but when saving to Database
    using a coldfusion query, Data is saving as some Funny
    Characters (i.e., master
    ?s),
    xml encoding is in UTF-8 and i don't know how to convert that
    zunk characters to normal characters like ( master's) - single
    quote)
    here are the things i tried.
    in Coldfusion Administrator i added a Connection String
    "useUnicode=true&characterEncoding=UTF-8"
    and checked the box which says "
    enable unicode for datasources configured for non-latin
    characters"
    Used a ConvertCharset Function passing xml object .. [/li]
    ii)
    <cfscript>
    function convertCharset(str,charsetFrom,charsetTo)
    var resultStr="";
    var javaString="";
    var byteArray="";
    javaString = CreateObject("java", "java.lang.String");
    javaString.init(str);
    byteArray = javaString.getBytes(charsetFrom);
    resultStr = CreateObject("java", "java.lang.String");
    resultStr.init(byteArray,charsetTo);
    return resultStr.toString();
    </cfscript>
    <cfcontent type="text/html; charset=UTF-8">
    <cfset setEncoding("URL", "UTF-8")>
    <cfset setEncoding("Form", "UTF-8")>

    I am using SQL SERVER 2005 Database,
    Field is "Description" Varchar(2000)
    did you perform your test using the same table, code, etc.?
    Yes
    did you read in & dump out the xml file? Yes, I dumped
    the xml file and if i open in NOTEPAD in UTF-8 (filetype) then i
    see a single quote instead of that different character.
    is it really utf-8?
    so i think it's utf-8,
    if your mojibake. chars are from an ms word document, then
    they're not utf-8 but a superset of
    latin-1.
    they are not from MS WORD, i got an XML file which has all
    the course and presentation information..structured properly except
    those characters.. like
    ("younus has a Bachelor’s degree). i see
    that in UTF-8
    so i want to know to which format do i need to convert to when
    saving in Database (SQL SERVER 2005)
    Thanks.

  • Received emails from Verizon - Pictures do not show correctly and strange characters appear in text

    When I receive emails from Verizon users, embedded images do not display inline.  Each image(s) instead is displayed as a empty box with the red X boxed at the upper left.  The images are correctly displayed at the very end of the email.
    Additionally, dotted capital A's appears frequently within the text as well as other extraneous characters and symbols.
    Do I have an incorrect setting in Live Mail (Outlook express displays the same) or is it something Verizon is doing?  All of my other emails from different providers display properly.
    Thanks in advance for any assistance which might be offered.
    nosewiki

    I have the same problem rec eiving from a friend who uses verizon. I use aol and even opened it in Internet Exporer and the same thing happened. This is a programing glitch with verizon email. I get the text in the email but the white squares with an x and no image. I have to downlod the images and open it as an attachment. The problem is you look at the image without the text which might be describing the image. Very inconvient. The person sending the emal has to enable the rich text option . I am still looking on how to do it on Verizon email but since I don't have it I am having trouble finding a solution.

  • Iweb pages hosted on a web server do not look right. Funny characters appea

    any web experts here?
    I have designed a bunch of pages in iWeb. Published them and uploaded them to my web host. However when I view the files via the web, they are not correct. The most obvious is that quote marks, bullets and paragraph markers are shown with funny characters.
    Take a look at www.dancingacademy.co.uk to see an example. Excuse the URL but its the only way I know of showing an example of what's wrong.
    If I view the files locally on my mac (ie publish from iweb to a folder and open them from the local folder) then the files look fine.
    It's only when they get sent from a webserver they look funny.
    Any ideas what my web hosting company is doing wrong?

    The server you are using is (mis)configured to force all browsers to use the wrong encoding. See this note (Server Settings section) for possible fixes:

  • Bad quality when uploaded to youtube?

    I have adobe premiere elements 12 to make youtube videos. I uploaded the first video and that one had a black border 1440 X 1080 HD, and then I tried a second video HD 1920 X  1080 which didn't have a black border but the quality was terrible. I am new to editing and filming, how do I get the quality to be as good as it is in the editor when uploaded to youtube?

    divinejoy916
    We will do just fine. And, I am not seeing any problems exchanging information to get the core of your Premiere Elements YouTube problems. I will write as clearly as possible. If there is something that you do not understand, I will rewrite.
    Computer
    You did a great job with the install of the program. If you did not open a new project and go to the workspace and Help Menu/Update, then you are still working with the 12 version. To go from 12 to 12.1 Update, then use that Help Menu/Update. If you are interested in Text Styles, that 12.1 Update has resolved an issue with Text Styles in the Expert workspace.
    Project Preset
    The program is designed to set the project preset automatically to match the properties of your source media. The setting of the project preset directs the program to set up the correct space in the Edit area monitor for editing. Sometimes the program does it right, sometimes not. If not, then you set the project preset manually to match the properties of what you know the source media to be. Some background information on that
    ATR Premiere Elements Troubleshooting: PE11: Accuracy of Automatic Project Preset (New Project Dialog) Setting.
    The first thing we need to know is what we are starting with as your video source for the project. We probably can get all the information that we need to know about properties of the source media from the brand/model/settings for the camera that recorded that Timeline video. Do you have other than video on that Timeline, like jpeg photos? By video properties, I mean video compression, audio compression, frame size, frame rate, interlaced or progressive (1080i or 1080p), and pixel aspect ratio.
    Once we know that we can cross catch with the project preset and react accordingly. From what you wrote, your project is set for the default NTSC AVCHD Full HD1080i30 which may or may not be correct for your video source.
    Export
    You wrote
    Im publish sharing using the HD presets.
    Still not sure what you are doing with the export, and that is important to be able to trace down to the cause of the issue. You can upload your Timeline content to YouTube two ways for your 2 minutes and 52 second Timeline
    a. Publish+Share/Social Websites/YouTube with Presets = High Definition for YouTube 1920 x 1080 - the uploading of the Timeline is done from within the program using your YouTube account that you set up. (Keep away from the 1440 x 1080 choice.)
    or
    b. Publish+Share/Computer/AVCHD with Presets = MP4 - H.264 1920 x 1080p30. Here you export to an AVCHD.mp4 file saved to the computer hard drive and then upload that AVCHD.mp4 file to YouTube at the YouTube web site.
    Which one of those two are you doing?
    Please let me know if you are OK with the above. If not, please tell me what I need to clarify further.
    Summary
    First let us target getting the properties of your source video for this project one way or other.
    Thanks.

  • When uploading my formatted resume to my Apple Jobs profile, I am always presented with a c:\fakepath message and the resume does not upload. How can I rectify this?

    When uploading my formatted resume to my Apple Jobs profile, I am always presented with a c:\fakepath message and the resume does not upload. How can I rectify this?

    Add this one to the list of thinks that don't work on the Apple Job Board. It looks like Apple is using ADP's VE (Virtual Edge) technology to run this system, and I've been stupified by the number of features that are just broken, or so poorly thought out by ADP as to be unusable, (certainly for webkit and mozilla browsers at least: I didn't bother checking IE.)
    Here are a few highlights:
    "My Job List", list of jobs applied for, seems to max out at three. You can apply for more than that, but you can only see the first three.
    "Search Using Your Resume" feature yields few or no results, even when the pasted text contains only common, exactly matched words like 'Design' or 'Engineer'.
    The missing resume upload, described in this thread.
    "My Job Agent" seems to never flag anything, at least it hasn't ever for me despite pretty loose criteria.
    Agent's created using "My Job Agent" eventually just disappear, which is fine because they don't seem to work.
    When updating a profile, acknowledging the 'Terms' happens twice in a row. 
    Job seekers can only supply one cover letter despite being able apply for several jobs.
    Pagination for search results only appears at the top of the page, so it's necessary to scroll down through each page, then up to the top again to proceed to the next page.
    Well, I'm sure there are others, but you get the idea. I hope the Apple folks can fix this, (or twist ADP's arm to fix it,) so it better represents the quality of experience that Apple is so respected for consistently delivering.

Maybe you are looking for
