'Highlight' Character Style -- Why Does the Font Change?

I want to define a style that mimics a highlight marker.
Choose some text, set the background/fill to yellow.
Highlight filled words, then choose 'Define Style From Selection..."
Then, in the More... selection I deselect every attribute of the character style except for the fill colour. So this should highlight text, but leave every other attribute of the text unchanged -- I think.
But whenever I apply it, the font changes to something I don't recognise -- even though the font is not a part of the character style description.
What am I doing wrong?
TIA

You need to make sure the font is embedded in the PDF. This is optional in some sofware.
If it is not embedded, your local font is used. No such local font exists on the iPad.

Why does the font change when I combine files?

I am trying to combine PDF files into one document using the "combine files" tool online.
The new file that is created changes some of the fonts to different fonts (I think it is having difficulty with times new roman in particular). I need to keep the original fonts when I combine the files, how can I stop it from changing the fonts?

In iBooks, why does the font change?

If you turn to the next page in iBooks, the font is nice and light, if you switch apps then switch back, the iBooks font is thicker, almost bold. You can take a photo of the pages to prove it's not an illusion. This is ios 7 on a retina ipad.

I should have mentioned - I'm reading a PDF.

Why does the font change when importing to my ipad as a pdf

I have a publisher document with black chancery font which was not on my current computer so I installed the font. It now appears in my document and when I save it as a pdf it seems to be there. BUT when I send it to my iPad the font is not what it should be.

If that's the only place you used that unique font, yes. Convert the textbox to an image file by applying a drop shadow to the font and setting the opacity of the drop shadow to 5%.

Why does the name change to my dad's name when I use his credit card for downloads?

I have an iPod touch. I have my own apple ID and icloud account. Why does the name change to my dad's name when I use his credit card for downloads? Is there a way I can have my own account and use my dad's card without having his name on my photostream and icloud?
I went on icloud.com and changed my name but it changes the credit card name to mine as well so I can't get apps unless its under his name, but it confuses everyone i share photo streams with, as there are two of my dads?
My aunt is having the same problem with her photostream, so I know its not only me.

I have this problem and it's annoying. Plenty of people in this world do not pay for their own stuff!. So i have 5 kids. All there accounts show as my name when people add them for Photo streams etc etc. This is ridiculous. Why not seperate billing address / credit card details to the name of the person on the account? Why do they have to be the same?

Why does the update change my home page and make Google so prevelant?

Several of the last "updates" involved the changing of my bookmarks and home page,. The so called update required me to spend more time in refreshing the browser to its previous condition. This is frustrating to say the least. Second why does the updated version of of firefox seem to favor google?

Normally, an update does not change your home page...
What did you home page change to? That might help identify the source of the problem.
I assume you have tried changing your home page back to your preferred site, either in the Options dialog or using one of the other methods:
* [[Startup, home page and download settings]]
* [[How to set the home page]]
Did that work at all? By "at all" I mean:
* Immediately after making the change, if you click the Home button, or launch a new window using Ctrl+n, does your preferred page load? Or is that ignored?
* Does the setting revert later in your session (you see in Options it has changed)?
* Does the setting revert after you exit and start Firefox up again?
* Is the problem only when you use your Firefox desktop shortcut?
With that information, it will be easier to recommend a solution.
I'm not sure I understand your second question. Google has always been the default search provider in Firefox. Are you seeing even more Google than that?

Why does the Font color change on my front panel?

I'm using the Font Dialogue to change the color of highlighted text on my front panel. After I save and reopen my app some of the Text will revert back to their original color (Black). Is this a bug in or am I missing something?

I assume that you want all control labels with white text. If I change the black ones to white and save the VI, the white text color is retained.

Why does the mouse change the font size on my lap top?

When browsing on my lap top, I mistakenly change the font size with the integrated mouse on the computer. This is not a problem when using the external mouse. I notice that expolorer typically has the screen size displayed in the lower right hand corner. I need to know how to avoid this problem. Thanks!

If you press the Ctrl key while using the mouse wheel then you change the page zoom.
Reset the page zoom on pages that cause problems: <b>View > Zoom > Reset</b> (Ctrl+0 (zero); Cmd+0 on Mac)

Why does the font size change unexpectedly when I use the touchpad with my new HP laptop with Windows 8?

Frequently the font size will change when the touchpad is touched. This is annoying! Is there a setting adjustment I can make to keep this from happening?

This is very experimental, but since no one else has replied...
I'm not sure which computers are affected, but Firefox has some support for touchpad "gestures" on multi-touch touchpads. Most of the ones that affect the zoom level of the page are the "pinching" gestures, like a smartphone screen. However, it seems that by default a "tap" will reset the zoom level, and that might be the problem here.
Could you try this?
(1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
(2) In the filter box, type or paste '''gest''' and pause while the list is filtered
(3) Double-click '''browser.gesture.tap''' and change it to... I'm not sure whether there is a command for "do nothing" but you could try typing or pasting in '''cmd_selectNone''' which cancels the current text selection in the page (if any).

Why does the font rendering change after I publish to the web?

I created an animation in Edge Animate with four slides, using Open-Sans as the font. The font rendering looks good in Edge Animate and looks good in the local html version as well, but when I publish it to the website, the font formatting is not acceptable.
Here is the local HTML version:
Here is how it appears on the website:
Is there a way to control this better?
Thanks.

Hopefully someone else will be brave enough to respond to this, but in the meantime, the best solution I have found so far is to post the animation files to a separate directory on the server. Then pull that page in using an iframe. This way the animation is not influenced by the parent page's styling.

Why does the @font-face work in a Private Tab, but not in a normal Tab?

I consistently find that the @font-face does not work in Firefox unless I use a Private Tab, but I prefer to use a regular Tab so that I can keep track of what pages I have visited. In a Private Tab the Android app displays Hebrew with cantillation marks as nicely as Windows does using the very same font. This is probably an unintended bug, as I cannot imagine why you would want Private Tabs to work better than the regular ones. The css function in question is:
@font-face {
font-family: 'Shlomo LB';
src: url('../ShlomoLightBold.ttf') format('truetype');
font-weight: normal;
font-style: normal;
}

Hello,
Thank you for bringing this up. There is an open issue in Bugzilla - [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=769194 src:local() @font-face rules doesn't work on Android]. But in this case you are mentioning a src:url, so I don't know if they are related.
Also, can you please confirm if you are using NoScript or any other plugin on your browser and if there are settings that differ for the normal tabs vs. private tabs (noscript has an option to block @font-face).
Would it be possible for you to create a sample for testing this?
Thank you

Why does my font change every time I quit FCPX?

I've been using FCPX for about a month now, and I love it. However, a few things keep happening that I can't seem to figure out why. The most obvious is when I set a font to title text, then quit the program. When I come back later, the font is totally different to the one I set previously. Does anyone else have this problem? Is there a solution?
Please help!
Thanks,
RJ

Why does a font change in my pdf when I print it to file?

A client created this magazine in InDesign and exported it to a pdf. I preflighted it and printed it using Adobe PDF for my printer and unchecked the "Rely on system fonts" button. The preflighter did not indicate that any fonts were unembedded, but the subhead on this page changed several characters anyway. The font is Kalinga, which is a freebie font, but shouldn't the preflighter have indicated if there was a problem? Also, the font was used elsewhere in the magazine, but this is the only page that had the error.
Here's the original file: http://www.needleandclay.com/pix/pdfs/Mountain%20View%20Feb%202015%20Original%2010.pdf
And here's the file with the error: http://www.needleandclay.com/pix/pdfs/Mountain%20View%20Feb%202015%20Original%2010%20worka round.pdf
I'm using Acrobat 9 on Windows 7, if that's relevant. I also have Kalinga installed on my computer, but that shouldn't have made a difference. Can anyone help me figure out what happened?
