Has font handling changed in Yosemite?

I'm having troubles with one of my fontshop fonts: FF DIN ROUND OT. I use it for my logo, headers etc. Don't know where to find the solution. Where to look next?
I've asked fontshop, cleared font caches, reinstalled the font files. Don't know exactly when the problems did occur the first time since I changed several things in a couple of weeks. Upgrading to Yosemite (10.10.1), reinstalling iWork's and Office to the newest versions, installing user accounts for my wife and kids (because of Yosemite-IOS), updating printer software etc.
The font shows well on screen while editing, but does not build right in print or in pdf (see image word and pdf). Other fonts did not seem to have any problems, though today even Calibri doesnot not show exactly the same in a design I made several weeks ago.
Fontshop resent the original fonts, I cleared font caches using Font Nuke as well as using a command line in Terminal (sudo atsutil databases -remove). I tried this on my Macbook Pro (2011) as on my MacBook Air (2014) as well. Both running Yosemite. Nothing works.

If you view the DIN Round font in a font editor, it most likely has a UTM value of 2048. Reset it to 1000. In the case of the font I fixed, it appears this way in FontLab Studio:
The UTM setting is 2048:
By default in this app, the check box to scale the glyphs is off. Which is odd since it should really be on. With the check box on, the fonts outlines are scaled to the new UTM value so that the remain at their current baseline and ascender size. Meaning, they stay at the size they're supposed to. With it off, the outlines are incorrectly scaled by the percentage difference. So 2048 to 1000 results in a 204.8% scale factor, which gives you a result you wouldn't want:
The newly saved font will literally display just over twice the size as it did in Mavericks or earlier. So make sure the glyphs don't change size when applying the new UTM value.
Without a way to correct the fonts yourself, you may be stuck if you can't run Mavericks from another partition until the issue is resolved in Yosemite.

    I have downloaded many of my previous Keynote presentation into my new ipad mini and not ONE has opened properly
    Rather defeats the purpose of icloud, synching, Keynote on IOS etc doesn't it?
    Any tips anyone?
    Cheers

    Thanks for this Gary. Much appreciated. Will help with future ones.
    Still a bit like using keynote in 'safe mode' and very limiting.
    If anyone produces an 'auto convert' app that will save me the work of fixing existing presentations slide by slide, I'm buying it :-)
    Thanks again

  • Freehand MX font handling

    Hi, sorry if this has been discussed previously, I'm new.
    Could anyone suggest a way to fix the fact that some of my files
    are displaying perfectly regarding fonts in Freehand 10 (and under)
    yet not Freehand MX? This is in Classic and OSX. On some machines
    the fonts will appear but are not in character and will print like
    this (ie. incorrectly). On others the fonts will not appear at all,
    with no message or option to replace missing fonts. In old Freehand
    you get that 'working' dialogue box as the application opens the
    file, implying it is sorting things out (like fonts!) but nothing
    in Freehand MX, just doesn't seem to bother... or something like
    that. Is it the fonts themselves or perhaps font management (ie
    ATM)? Please throw me some advice... for now we are reverting back
    to Freehand but can't continue doing so.

    Font handling on OS X is radically different than in Classic.
    In OS X fonts
    can be installed all over the place, and in places where they
    can be
    accessed only by the installing application. Adobe and
    Microsoft install
    font for the exclusive use of the their own applications.
    My strategy is to use FontAgent Pro to manage all fonts on my
    system.
    FreeHand MX has trouble with corrupted font caches. You'll
    need to clean out
    font caches regularly using a utility such as Font Nuke or
    Yasu.
    I have found that if a font is displaying incorrectly,
    deactivating and then
    reactivating it in FontAgent Pro will clear up the problem.
    It clears the FH
    font cache for that font.

    Log Message:
    Fix to allow Animate to automatically handle changes in styles during transitions. This same logic already works for properties (e.g., if you specify different values for x in states and run Animate with a SimpleMotionPath with property="x" then it will automatically determine the from/to values to animate for x). But we needed to add an override for getRelevantStyles() for Animate to advertise the possible styles to pick up changes for so that the transitions array would be populated accordingly.
    QE notes: None
    Doc notes: This is a fix that should allow the second animated skin example in the docs (spark_skinning, p46) to work as detailed in my edits

  • Preventing scrollbars appearing when font size changes

    Hi,
    I have a Panel container (relative layout with now height/width specified) containing text which has its font size determined at runtime from an external stylesheet. In my application, the user has the option to change font size (ie. load a separate external stylesheet). The problem is, whenever larger font sizes are chosen, horizontal and vertical scroll bars keep appearing within my panel container. I do not want this at all, I want the panel to resize!
    I've tried almost everything, including:
    Calling "validateNow()" when font size changes
    Launching a resize event when font size changes
    Overriding the updateDisplayList method of Panel and trying to set the height and width to the newly measured height and width.
    None seem to be effective. It is as if the Panel does is not able to calculate the new size when the font size changes.
    Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    With mx panel you can set its verticalScrollPolicy="off" horizontalScrollPolicy=""off",

    I made the fatal mistake of allowing iCloud to handle my @mac mail account.
    I had set this address up with aliases and never had a problem.
    Ever since iCloud has been handling it I have had problems.
    It seams impossible to claim my account back from iCloud. How can it be achieved or has Apple set a booby trap?

    iCloud is the successor to MobileMe. MobileMe shuts down forever tomoorrow.
    If you only want to use the email portion of your previous MobileMe account you can. You do not have to use all the other features of iCloud, just like you didn't have to use all the other features of MobileMe.
    The email account has not really changed at all. Just the server address it comes from.
    The sending emails problem you are having, is this on your Mac in Mail, in webmail at iCloud.com or on your iOS device?
    When it doesn't succeed in sending, what does it do? Any error message?
    What mail server settings are you using in Mail? What version of Mac OS X are you using?

  • How do you handle change in user names if folks get married or divorced

    If an application is using the apex authentication scheme, how do you handle change in user names if folks get married or divorced. The reason I ask the question is that all of apex uses v('app_user'), which is the user_name. If I have transactions done by this user and then their name changes, which means so does their id, how do I get all of their transactions, before and after the name change. Traditionally I would expect to use user_id, not sure if this feature is still available. I can always create a custom auth scheme, but that is a lot of additional work. Any ideas?
    Thanks,

    Appreciate your help and time Jari, below is my game plan, unless someone has a better idea,
    I plan on doing the following to use user_id for auditing of transaction records:
    1. Get the user_id to use in the tables audit trail fields
    user_id := apex_util.get_user_id(v('app_user'));
    OR
    user_id := apex_util.get_current_user_id;
    2. If a user changes their name then use
    apex_util.set_last_name(p_user_id, p_new_lastname);
    apex_util.set_username(p_userid, p_new_username);
    Thanks,

    Thanks&Regards
    Sabhapathy R

    Hi Rahul,
    Thanks for reply. I am maintained in diff value  maintained routing , Ex :First routing i have  work center 'X' value maintained as a setup time in 15 Min's and operation time 10 Min's
    second work center 'Y' I have maintained as set up time 10 Min's and operation time 30 Min's,
    Now I want to change the work center in production order as a 'Y' so whatever value maintained in routing , it has to be changed automatically (10 min's and 30 Min's), but system will not change only old value only picked (15Min's AND 10 Min's).
    Now I think you get to know what the client requirement, kindly do the need full.

  • How to handle changing IPv6 network configurations

    Hi,
    I run a Mac Mini as a server with OS X Server 10.8.5/2.2 on it using an internet connection with DS-lite. The server runs fine on a private IPv4 and a public IPv6 assigned by the ISP thrugh my router. Now from time to time (on some really odd days 5 times a day) my ISP decides to change my IPv6 prefix and as a consequence the IPv6 of my server. This results in a warning and some services seem to work not always properly. When I handle the warning and update the network configuration (although all relevant pieces of configuration that are shown along this proces remain unchanged), everything is back to normal.
    Now I wonder whether there is better way to handle changing IPv6 prefixes while everything else is unchanged? Any thougths? Thanks. Steffen

    I'll add my 2 cents too Sudheer...
    I suppose your versioning strategy should take into account your particular circumstances, impact analysis, ESB architecture  etc...
    In our case it makes sense to version the service operations because we have some consumers that want to stay on the older version & other that want to move with the changing versions...
    We've noticed that SAP, with the standard delivered enterprise services also version step the service operations so you esentially have 2 service contracts but one that caters for additional fields/functionality. The consumer uses the service operation that they prefer.
    The other possibility, if you are in a position to make the new fields 'optional' then you could do that without impacting all the consumers, the consumers that have the additional info to pass in the request can do so & the other consumers can carry on business as usual.
    Then you could also version step the entire service, that would entail making use of a new software component version but this would entail new endpoints & depending on your architecture it could impact all your consumers. If you're using an integrated ESB architecture, your consumers would have one endpoint & the ESB would route the request to the relevant service version.
    So you could minise impact on the consumers & develop a good versioning strategy depending on what your current situation is.

  • "The Microsoft Exchange Administrator has made a change that requires you quit and restart Outlook" in Exchange 2013

    In Exchange 2013, Outlook finds a new connection point made up of the user’s mailbox GUID + @ + the domain portion of the user’s primary SMTP address. This change makes
    it much less likely that users will see the dreaded message “Your administrator has made a change to your mailbox.”
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd298114(v=exchg.150).aspx
    Although the error message in the topic has been already improved a lot in Exchange 2013, the users may still encounter them in some specific scenarios. We have collected them and let’s discuss them in this thread.
    Symptom
    =======================================
    Consider the following scenario:
    Exchange 2013 was installed for a migration from Exchange 2007/2010.
    The legacy Exchange server is removed after successful migration.
    Exchange 2013 may be updated to Exchange 2013 SP1.
    Some users were being randomly prompted with a popup in their outlook client with the following message when connecting with Exchange 2013 server:
    “The Microsoft Exchange Administrator has made a change that requires you quit and restart Outlook”
    Cause
    =======================================
    The issue may be caused due to Public Folders.
    The msExchHomePublicMDB attribute on Exchange 2013 databases was set to deleted legacy public folder object.
    Solution
    =======================================
    Removed the Public Folder from all the Exchange
    2013 Databases. To do it, we can use ADSIedit.msc and remove the arrtibute - msExchHomePublicMDB from all the Databases:
    1. Open ADSIEdit.
    2. Connect to the Configuration container.3.
    Expand Configuration, expand CN=Configuration,DC=Domain,DC=com.4. Expand CN=Services -> CN=Microsoft Exchange -> CN=Domain -> CN=Administrative Groups -> CN=Exchange
    Administrative Group -> CN=Databases.5. In the right hand pane you will see a list of databases.6.
    Right-click the listed database object -> Properties.7. Check whether the msExchHomePublicMDB value is set to an unavailable value. If you see reference to the old database,
    please clear the value.8. Click OK.9. Check the rest of the databases to make sure
    that they are not populated in the same way.

    Hi,
    Please confirm if the issue happens to all users in your Exchange server.
    In client side, please check the Connection Status when the issue occurs:
    Please open Outlook - press CTRL key - right click on the Outlook icon from right bottom corner taskbar –Connection Status to check the connection.
    Please notice the Server name, status, protocol and Type information.
    In Exchange server, please check whether all Exchange services are started and running in Exchange 2010. Also check whether there is any error information in Event Viewer.
    If the issue only happens to one user, please update the Outlook client with the latest patches and service packs to have a try.

  • HT1657 Once I rent a movie, I thought you had 24 hours (in the US) to watch it multiple times.  We used to see that but for some reason, we don't see the "rented" status to re-watch. Has that policy changed?

    After watching a rented movie from Apple TV, it appears to disappear not giving us the option to re-watch again.  Has the policy changed?  We used to be able to see the "rented" status for 24 hours, indicating how much rental time we had left.

    The 24 hour limit for the US hasn't changed, you should still be able to watch it as many times as you like within those 24 hours (and the 30 day limit from renting it, whichever ends the soonest). You should also be able to see the remaining time - from http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1415 :
    On your device, the time remaining for you to finish watching the movie appears near the movie title.

    hello hi, i just won't to ask, if there has been any changes on how to find a stolen phone, did some one come up with a fare and good solution, new Apps. as it is not fare at all when some one could use it for free and there is a lot of things could be done to this condition, no one seem to care,
    i have a story about my sister, am talking on her behalf, she got stolen her phone at a caffee when she just come from a horeble exam, she was very mad and having haedace for not doing well at the exam, i ask her if we could have coffee before we go home, once she sate; while i was getting the coffee for her, some one snicked to her pocket and took the phone, immidatly she feelt it and went on to searching, but nathing was hopefull. what makes it more heart braking is that she worked day and night just to buy the phone and pay for her books and so on as a student. she use to work 16 houres a day before she had to start school. 8 houres in one place and then to the other place. and she was always demanding for more houres to work; one day her boss saw her on her other job and she was serprised to see her and saied OHhh my God Milly if you work like this, i wonder if you servive, how could you also ask for more houres, My sis had to do it she has no parents or any thing, well the phone was taken after only two months of having it. the sad thing is she stile dream having it even though she can't think of buying againe. well me i have tryed a lot of things but i know some were out there there is a solution for people like this, it is not always fare for some one who has payed up to 800 to just loose his ......  
    Thnks

    I'm sorry, but your sister, unless she had already turned on the "Find my iPhone" feature and the person who took the phone has not disabled it, is out of luck. She should report the theft to local police authorities, including the serial number of her iPhone. While her experience is unfortunate, there are good reasons why Apple cannot do anything else about it.
    I hope she gets her phone back.
    Best of luck.
