How do I programmatically remove a Windows system font with LabVIEW?

Is there a way to programmatically remove a Windows System Font?
Thanks!

If you know the font name, you should be able to just use the Delete function. On NT, Win2K, the fonts are stored in the WINNT\Fonts folder. I think you'll have to have admin rights to delete files there.

No, you must install Windows to run Windows software. You do not need to use Boot Camp (yes, it's free because it comes with OS X.)
Windows on Intel Macs
There are presently several alternatives for running Windows on Intel Macs.
Install the Apple Boot Camp software. Purchase Windows XP w/Service Pak2, Vista, or Windows 7. Follow instructions in the Boot Camp documentation on installation of Boot Camp, creating Driver CD, and installing Windows. Boot Camp enables you to boot the computer into OS X or Windows.
Parallels Desktop for Mac and Windows XP, Vista Business, Vista Ultimate, or Windows 7. Parallels is software virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
VM Fusionand Windows XP, Vista Business, Vista Ultimate, or Windows 7. VM Fusion is software virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
CrossOver which enables running many Windows applications without having to install Windows. The Windows applications can run concurrently with OS X.
VirtualBox is a new Open Source freeware virtual machine such as VM Fusion and Parallels that was developed by Solaris. It is not as fully developed for the Mac as Parallels and VM Fusion.
Note that Parallels and VM Fusion can also run other operating systems such as Linux, Unix, OS/2, Solaris, etc. There are performance differences between dual-boot systems and virtualization. The latter tend to be a little slower (not much) and do not provide the video performance of the dual-boot system. See MacTech.com's Virtualization Benchmarking for comparisons of Boot Camp, Parallels, and VM Fusion. Boot Camp is only available with Leopard or Snow Leopard. Except for Crossover and a couple of similar alternatives like DarWine you must have a valid installer disc for Windows.
You must also have an internal optical drive for installing Windows. Windows cannot be installed from an external optical drive.

How do I install Elements for Windows 7 PC with 64 bit? Get error message - file archive part missing

We purchased Elements 12 and Premiere Elements 12 on September 7, 2014 and have tried a variety of things including searching through FAQs on the Adobe site, etc. etc. and cannot get our downloads to work. We are avid computer users and have never had problems downloading software before.
From our account under "orders" - I have tried clicking on the Akamai download manager and the Alternate Download Method on for each application with the same results.
We have a Windows 7 PC with a 64 bit operating system and Internet Explorer 11.
On all attempts we get an Adobe screen with 2 links – 1 for a file ending in .7z and a 2nd file ending in .exe.
I click on the first file and confirm the download completes at 100% (not paused, etc.) and is in the downloads folder for my user name on the PC.
I click on the 2nd link for .exe and I receive the error message below – 2nd screen shot – “file archive is missing” all folders/files must be in same folder.
So I see it’s a winzip file (as a winzip pop up folder had come up also) so I download the free version and unzip the files in the same downloads folder under my user name to try that.
I click on .exe file link again and same message. I tried copying the files directly to the downloads folder (as they all unzipped into a subfolder called PSE 12 and tried clicking on .exe again but get the same message.
For Premiere I tried the same and got same results on the 64 bit version download.
I do not know how to access the software we purchased.
Any help or advice is appreciated.
Also - if anyone knows how I can contact Adobe for a full refund so I can just buy the boxed software instead - that would be helpful as well as that is not easy to find online either.
Thanks!

I get an error message saying that the quicktime installer will only work on 32 bit
The QuickTime player works on 64-bit systems. (It's a 32-bit application, but it should run fine using the standard 32-bit-on-64-bit Windows-on-Windows emulation.)
What's the precise text of your installation error message, dc? (There one or two different ones I can think of that might mention 32-bit)

How to keep showing external dialog window in foreground of labview window

hi,
i have run .exe file from my labview using exce.vi. It wokrs too. but i have problem with dialog window from .exe file.if i run .exe file using command line it appears a dialog window named for example 'START' if i pressed yes or No then again appears new dialog window and so on till finished.But problem is the first dialog window appears foreground of my labview and then others background (suppresed).to do further at first i have to minimized my labview window.how could i keep showing that dialog window always foreground of my labview??Thanks.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

You could add code to your LabVIEW program to detect each new dialog, and to bring it to the front. I grabbed the following two links from a similar post, either link shows how to programmatically bring a window (LabVIEW or not) to the front:

How to replace system fonts with type 1 version

Can system font Helvetica be replaced with the PostScript Type 1 (Older) Version?
Can a system font be deleted?
System: iMac 2012, OS X 10.8.2, Output Device: PostScript Level 1 Imagesetter
We are trying to pring Helvetica to a PostScript Level 1 device
and do not want to convert system font to outlines in Illustrator in order to print
to our output device as we would loose all editing capabilities.
Our device will not accept TrueType or OpenType fonts only Type 1 fonts.
Please explain if possible

Same problem! The only solution I found is to prepare a textbox in a new file with all the font you need. Copy and past in the file you need to change font. Go to type/risolve missing font. Will open the same window in the pic you pasted. Then you find the font in the dropdown menu. I have to change all the Helvetica family ...it's a long go. If some one could save me. Hope to be usefull to your problem.

How do I troubleshoot a display or system font in Illustrator

I think I am having trouble with how a certain system font displays in Illustrator. I am not sure which font it is. Can someone explain why I am getting a swatch list that looks like this:
All these "mystery" swatches are associated with a piece of artwork that was obtained from a stock image website.

The font looks fine for your palette, you have just encountered some swatches from someone using a OS different than English. Just use the command to select unused colors adn delte, or change the names if they are used. If the colros keep coming back look into a post deleted global colors, as that incremental numbering naming convention looks similar to that.

How do you unmark the Rely on System Fonts settings to automatically created virtual printers in Citrix?

Hello!
We have an application that requires the Rely on System Fonts box to be unmarked. I already unmarked it on the Adobe PDF printer on the Citrix server however this change does not roll down to the automatically created adobe printers in Citrix. How can I roll down the change?
Thanks
MarisolB

Steve,
Thanks for your notes. To follow up on your response.
Bummer. I kinda had a hunch at this inDesign limitation.
I have been aware of the method for setting up of a security policy within Acrobat. While this feature does cut down some of the work involved in creating and applying password policies to pdfs, what I am looking for with Acrobat is to apply the same password policy to every document I save from the app. Automatically. Without having to manualy select a policy.
I think my solution will have to lie in me creating some sort of script to help support this need. I don't think Acrobat Pro X has the capabilities to allow me to tinker with, say, creating a save PDF preset that will allow me to automatically apply a password policy.
PS. I am using acrobat pro x.

How to recover saved sessions after a system recovery with backup [DUPE: /questions/770295]

Computer kept crashing and wasn't able to log on, so I had to do a system recovery with backup. Was wondering if there was anyway to get back my saved sessions that I kept.

Probably not. A System Restore can replace the current file sessionstore.js with an older version and if that happens then you lose that session unless you have made a backup of sessionstore.js before doing the system restore.

How can I set the SRQ bit on GPIB with LabView ?

Hello,
I am developping an application with LabView RT on a PXI RT system. This application acts as an instrument (non controller GPIB), and I need to assert the SRQ line. How can I do that ?
I know the ibrsv function, but I can't find it in LabView, and I can not use it through a DLL call since GPIB DLLs are not compatible with Real-Time.
Thank you.

Hello Alfonso,
It sounds like you might be getting errors -200279 and -200278. (In the future, if you post the actual error codes, it helps us to know exactly what is happening). Error -200279 happens when you are performing a hardware-timed acquisition (meaning the data is sampled according to a clock signal on your board), but your LabVIEW program is not reading the values from the buffer allocated for that task in computer memory fast enough. Basically it's a buffer overflow error. It means older samples have been overwritten before you attempted to read them out. As the error message suggests, "increasing the buffer size, reading the data more frequently, or specifying a fixed number of samples to read instead of reading all available samples might correct the problem." For more information on this error, please see the KB (DAQmx) Error -200279 During a Continuous, Buffered Acquisition.
Error -200278 happens most often when you have configured a finite acquisition, but are calling the DAQmx Read function in a loop. If you want to perform a finite acquisition, you should only call DAQmx Read once. For more information on this error, see the KB Error -200278 at DAQmx Read.
Finally, please refer to Abhinav's earlier post about the sample rate on the 9237 module. As he described, the NI-DAQmx 8.3 driver will only allow you to set the sample clock to integer divisions of 50k (50,000/n, where n can be 1, 2, 3...13). Since the maximum divisor is 13, the smallest sample rate that can be used is 3.846 kS/s. You can check what value the driver is actually using for the sample clock by reading from the SampClk.Rate property of the DAQmx Timing property node.
I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any questions about what I've described.
Best regards,

Windows virtual machine with labview on a Mac

I am about to buy a Mac laptop with virtualization software (either VMware or Parallels), then create a Windows 7 virtual machine and put Labview for Windows Professional on it.
I searched the board and found some discussion of this configuration but it is several years old.
I would just like to hear from people who have done this and learn from their experiences. Are there any pitfalls, features that don't work, performance problems, setup difficulties, whatever. Also, do you prefer VMware or Parallels.
One other thing: I would like to create at least four virtual machines (Windows with Labview development, Windows without LV to test the applications in a non-labview environment, and similar for MacOS}. Is this a reasonable thing to do?
Regards,
David

Hi David,
As indicated above I have been running a windows virtual machine using VMware on a 17 inch macbook pro for quite a while now. I have not experienced significant problems. Labview and labview generated apps work fine in the virtual environment.
But would I do it again? I think not. The economics don't work. You can buy a quite capable Windows laptop for less than $500. The virtual machine alternative costs $200 for a copy of Windows, $80 for virtualization software (Parallels or VMware) plus extra memory on the Mac (I have 8 gb) plus a more powerful machine, etc. I ended up paying over $3,000 for the Mac hardware and extra software. The alternative would have been $1,500 for a 15 inch Mac plus $500 for a Windows laptop.
Also, there is definitely a performance penalty. Virtualization is not free. Start up and shutdown times for Windows are more than twice as long under VMware than with a cheap HP laptop.
It is nice having all my files (Mac and Windows) on the same machine but I could have easily networked the Mac and Windows and had effectively the same result. Expected benefits, such as a single backup disk for both operating systems didn't work out. Apple's time machine software views the entire Windows environment as a single lump, so I am still stuck with two backup drives.
So the good news is that it works. The bad news is that the costs (in my opinion) exceed the benefits.

Windows 7 Compatability with Labview 8.0 and missing files while interfacing the FPGA with LV

I am trying to use an FPGA (PCI-7830R) with Labview 8.0. The computer has Windows 7 OS. I installed LV 8.0 in the proper order with the FPGA Module and labview is able to see the FPGA when I open a .lvproj (the FPGA is in the tree) however there is a warning symbol next to the FPGA selection and when I try to open a .vi file that is used on the other stations in my lab (it works on all the other stations), labview is unable to find a whole bunch of files. There are some pictures.
Missing File (there are a bunch more but this is the fist one).

According to this LabVIEW Compatibility LabVIEW 8.0 is NOT compatible with Windows 7

How to creat the interface of auto CAD file with labview

Hi
I have been controling 2-axis Piezo motor with labview. Now I have to use the dwg or dxf file to move the piezo controller axis. How I can transform the dwg or dxf file into decimal number 1, -1 to create interface with my labview.

Hi Nusrat,
So it sounds like you want to create a CAD drawing and then control your piezo motor via LabVIEW by moving the CAD drawing? Is that correct?
If that is correct - I don't know of a way to do this I'm afraid. I don't think it's really possible.
The only potential way to do this is to use SolidWorks as your CAD program and then convert the SolidWorks drawing into an STL file, which can then be imported into LabVIEW as a 3D picture control. I can't think of any other way to achieve this.
These examples might help you:
LabVIEW Interface VIs for SolidWorks
STL Geometry in 3D Picture Control
The Pitch Perfect Tuner
Develop Motion Applications with RIO and SolidWorks
NI SoftMotion for SolidWorks
Connect NI LabVIEW and DS SolidWorks
I hope that helps.

How do I count arbitrary pulses from an oscilloscope with labview

I am looking at arbitrary pulses on a TEK 2024B oscilloscope. I want to use LabView to count those pulses and record a time stamp for each pulse (perhaps to an excel spreadsheat). The duration of the measurement is over ten minutes and the pulses, on the average, occur once per millisecond. How do I count/record these pulses with LabView?

Jay,
I would start by downloading the Instrument Driver for the 2024B from ni.com/idnet It should have the functions that the scope is capable of implemented there. If you have problems using the driver please post back.
