Has anybody successfully used the META2TTF utility?

Hey there, I'm trying to use a new function (new as of 11.5) called META2TTF (found in the 11.5's Docutoolbox reference guide), it converts Portrait Metacode Xerox fonts to a Windows TrueType Font.
I'm trying to use the utilty to, as my explanation above would suggest, convert Xerox fonts we own to their TrueType version so our users can see what their efforts in Documaker would look like while working on their sections, etc. However, in using the command line function, I keep getting the message "Device font in non-portrait orientation not converted." I'm pretty confident the font(s) I'm trying to convert are portrait oriented, so I'm just wondering if anybody else has by chance used this utility so I can figure out if it's user error or whether I need to open a ticket with Oracle...
i used the font converter wizard last week in 11.5 to successfully convert all of my Xerox fonts to PCL so I can print locally and see the true representation of what I create in Studio, but TTF is not an option in the wizard (unless it's just not called TTF and I'm missing the proverbial "boat" on this one).
Thanks,
Gregg

I think there might be a mistake in the documentation which says to use /I= and /O= for the input Xerox font name and the output TrueType font name. Actually, you don't use /I= and /O=, just specify the input Xerox font name and the output TrueType font name.
For example,
meta2ttf C:\metafonts\HM108P.fnt "C:\My Fonts\HM108P.TTF"

    Has anyone successfully used the Intuit Quicken compatible with Lion upgrade for investment tracking?

    Although I gave up investment tracking for personal reasons (I had used Quicken Deluxe 2002 for many years for that reason), my understanding is that the new Quicken 2007 for Lion/Mt. Lion is completely the same feature wise as Quicken 2007 for PPC.  It will run on Snow Leopard, too.
    For $15, why not download it and just try it and LET US KNOW!

  • Has anyone successfully used the ZTE Open C with an AT&T microcell?

    I have a ZTE Open C and have had no issues with initial setup w/AT&T. However, like most newer phones the voice signal reception is very weak.
    I've had an AT&T Microcell before, but I don't have one now. For those that are unaware, the microcell allows 3G phones to connect via a 3G signal, but the call is routed through a home broadband internet connection.
    Has anyone successfully used a ZTE Open C w/Firefox OS AND used an AT&T microcell? If yes, did you need to do anything special on the phone or with Firefox OS.

    I don't use a ZTE Open C, however, I do have a ZTE Open (Original) on AT&T and so I'll see if I can help ;D
    I know someone who has a Microcell, and I have used it myself a few times. However, the microcell only works if you have entered in your phone number into settings of the Microcell.
    Check the Microcell settings.
    Check the data connection settings on your FxOS device
    Make sure your Microcell is properly connected to WiFi
    and check the AT&T support page for more info
    For a while, it actually hasn't actually worked for me. I apologize if this doesn't solve your problem :D

  • Can anybody successfully use the screen capture method with Pro/E?

    Has anybody got this command to work sucessfully?
    All the parts in my assemblies get placed on the same position, not respecting my Pro/E constraints.
    Do I have a wrong config setting? In 3D v7, I saw that Pro/E wasn't a supported application - is this the reason this doesn't work?
    I always use the drag and drop metho in the 3D toolkit.
    Thanks in advance
    Dave

    Dave,
    Jeremy is correct. A straight conversion into Acrobat is best. Just Drag & Drop the model onto Acrobat to open the Acrobat 3D Conversion dialog which, with Pro/E gives very many options to control the conversion process. Or, use the 3D Tool; go to Tools > Avanced Editing > 3D Tool and marquee an area in your PDF where you want the model to placed. After the marquee is completed, the Add 3D Content panel is displayed. Navigate to your Pro/E model and select it, the Acrobat 3D Conversion dialog will be displayed.

  • Has anyone successfully used the Zoom R16 with Audition?

    I’ve tried just about everything, but can’t seem to get Audition to run with the Zoom R16.  As noted in a recent post, I updated both the Zoom R16 firmware and widows driver, but that doesn’t seem to make the 2 work harmoniously. 
    Has anyone had success getting the 2 to work together?  If so, what’s the trick?!
    Thanks in advance

  • Has anybody ever used the Accordion component?

    The way an Accordion component currently functions is, when a
    user clicks on a segment it slides to display the content.
    I would like it to slide and display the content when the
    user rolls over a segment, but I can't figure out how to detect the
    index of the segment that the user rolls over.
    Also I can't figure out how to align the labels right and
    change the text to white. My code is below, please help.
    import mx.containers.Accordion;
    //skinning the segments
    Accordion.prototype.falseUpSkin = "falseUpSkin";
    Accordion.prototype.falseDownSkin = "falseDownSkin";
    Accordion.prototype.falseOverSkin = "falseOverSkin";
    Accordion.prototype.falseDisabledSkin = "falseDisabledSkin";
    Accordion.prototype.trueDownSkin = "trueDownSkin";
    Accordion.prototype.trueUpSkin = "trueUpSkin";
    Accordion.prototype.trueOverSkin = "trueOverSkin";
    Accordion.prototype.trueDisabledSkin = "trueDisabledSkin";
    //creating the segments
    var s1 = mainAccordian.createSegment("content1", "s1",
    "label1");
    var s2 = mainAccordian.createSegment("content1", "s2",
    "label2");
    var s3 = mainAccordian.createSegment("content1", "s3",
    "label3");
    var s4 = mainAccordian.createSegment("content1", "s4",
    "label4");
    var s5 = mainAccordian.createSegment("content1", "s5",
    "label5");
    var s6 = mainAccordian.createSegment("content1", "s6",
    "label6");
    var s7 = mainAccordian.createSegment("content1", "s7",
    "label7");
    setAccordionStyle(mainAccordian);
    // can't detect when the user rolls over a segment or get the
    index
    // of that segment
    s1.onRollOver = function() {
    // this only seems to detect when the user rolls over the
    // content of the selectedIndex
    //aligning the text right and changing the font color to
    white doesn't work
    function setAccordionStyle(accordion) {
    accordion.setStyle("headerHeight", 31);
    accordion.setStyle("fontFamily", "Verdana");
    accordion.setStyle("textAlign", "right");
    _global.styles.AccordionHeader.setStyle("fontColor",

  • Has anyone successfully used the serial-over-lan feature in ipmitool?

    The IPMI hardware in Apple's Intel Xserves ostensibly supports serial-over-LAN access via ipmitool. Attempting to access it with ipmitool doesn't appear to work, however; the command
    ipmitool -H hostname -U username sol activate
    simply returns without entering a serial session. I am able to perform other queries on the same interface with ipmitool, however. Is there some setting that I must enable in order to permit the above command to succeed?

    I have version 2.0.2 installed. The firmware is not up to date (its boot ROM is at version XS11.0080.B01); however, I never was able to figure out how to update it (see http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1569860&tstart=0). Querying the bmc info with ipmitool does work; it reports firmware revision 1.2.8. No manual changes were made within /dev to my knowledge.

  • I still distribute most FCP projects via DVD. No matter which MPEG2 setting I use in Compressor 4 I get an error - even Apple's default DVD setting. Has anybody successfully output an FCP X project to compressor and then out on a DVD?

    I still distribute most FCP projects via DVD. No matter which MPEG2 setting I use in Compressor 4 I get an error - even Apple's default DVD setting. Has anybody successfully output an FCP X project to compressor and then out on a DVD?

    Anthony, thank you very much - this works, though I thought I had tried your process previously without success. I've tried so many things who knows. I've had zero luck going with the Send to Compressor or Export Using Compressor Settings under the Share menu. I'm also finding Compressor 4 to be a real dog on my system even though I have a brand new quad core machine with 8G of RAM. Prior to receiving your post I did come up with a different work process. Using Export Movie from FCP X and then loading the result in Compressor 3 works flawlessly. Thanks again!

  • How do I use the km utility to get a working Swedish keyboard at inst?

    Hi,
    This is my initial post on this forum. I'm interested in archlinux as I find "the arch way" appealing, however I'm faced by a little problem first thing during the setup. It wasn't easy choosing between newbie corner and the installation forum, after consideration I picked the latter.
    I want to install archlinux on my Acer Aspire 1642ZWLMi, which has a swedish keyboard layout. I want to be able to use the swedish characters åäö during and after the installation phase.
    The installation CD suggests that I should run the km utility and pick my keyboard layout and a corresponding console font. How do I find information on which ones to choose?
    I have tried some of the layouts with the prefix se- (there are four) but I don't know which console font that has the necessary characters. Even if I managed to pick the correct layout I might very well have chosen an incompatible console font to go with it.
    Thanks for reading my post. I would greatly appreciate any help I can get!

    Thanks for trying to help me. Though I had already tried the suggested combination of keyboard layout and console font using the km utility.
    When I run the km utility first thing during install and choose 'se-lat6.map.gz' as keymap and 'lat9w-16.psfu.gz' as console font it still doesn't work. When I type åäöÅÄÖ on my keyboard åæøÅÆØ is displayed in the console. My search results are telling me that æ and ø are the danish (and some other languages) equivalent to ä and ö.
    It is also worth giving emphasis to the fact that the km utility just lets me choose keyboard layout and console font. Which means I'm unable to set any consolemap.
    If it's not possible to get swedish characters to work during the installation process I guess installating archlinux first and configuring the keyboard, console font and console mapping later is an option.
    How did people from outside the US/UK perform their install? And more specifically in my case, people from Sweden?
    All suggestions are welcome! I'm quite eager to try out archlinux.

  • Has anyone successfully used a "WD My Book for Mac" via NAS (plugged into USB port on router) as a Time Machine back-up drive?

    Has anyone successfully used a "WD My Book for Mac" via NAS (plugged into USB port on router) as a Time Machine back-up drive? Apple support tech tried to tell me it wasn't possible and that the only NAS Time Machine could back up to is the Time Capsule, but I'm not buying it. I know it's doable, but I'm having a hard time figuring out which External HDDs will work and which ones won't.  If not My Book for Mac, is there an External HDD that will work? (Running OS X 10.9.1 - Mavericks, btw...)

    Given the nature of backups, my recommendation has always been to use a strategy that is unequivocally supported by Apple. As you already determined Apple Support unequivocally informed you that your proposal will not work, unless your router is an Apple AirPort Extreme or Time Capsule.
    The exhaustive list of devices supported by Time Machine amounts to the following:
    AirPort Time Capsule's built-in hard disk (any model)
    External USB hard disk drive connected to a Time Capsule (any model)
    External USB hard disk drive connected to an AirPort Extreme (current model only)
    A hard disk drive directly connected to your Mac
    That is all.
    Use whatever backup device you want, but you should be aware that this site is full of reports of misery from hapless individuals who had been using NAS devices for Time Machine backups, only to find that they were incomplete, corrupted, or useless when they were required. Apple won't care if you lose your data while using a Time Machine configuration specifically excluded from their technical support documents.

  • Can I use the Disk Utility Application to backup bootcamp windows 7?

    Can I use the Disk Utility Application to backup Bootcamp that has Windows 7 on it?  If I install a new blank drive, I would like to know that using Time Machine I can get the MAC OS back and using the Disk Image Utility I can restore Bootcamp with Windows 7.

    NO.
    You have to use Windows or a Windows utility.
    There are programs that will clone an entire drive (sector) as well.
    DU does not though. Paragon does support Boot Camp.

    I am not 100% what isn't allowed.. but I am assuming you want to spread the backup across the two disks.. internal TC and 6TB external.. this is not possible.. It has to be one or the other. TC has no way to build a raid JBOD or anything else. Nor would you want to as that is the most likely to fail and kill your data.
    Let me add, backing up 6TB over USB on TC.. will be the most excruciating experience of your life.. cf child birth or passing kidney stones.. large ones.. being the male equivalent.
