How do I set the font in firefox 4.0 using ubuntu?

The zoom feature is OK but I want to permanently set the font size on my firefox pages using the Ubuntu operating system. I don't see anything under Tools and there doesn't seem to be a lot of questions previously asked in the Help area about Firefox in Ubuntu.

It's difficult to set a single font size without wrecking the display of most web sites. One alternative would be to store your preferred zoom level and apply that to all sites. This requires an add-on such as:
* [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/6965/ Default FullZoom Level]
* [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2592/ NoSquint]
Does that work for you?

Formatting issues: when I open a msg, the font is sooo small you need a magnifier to read it. How can I set the font size to one I can easily read?

== Issue

I have another kind of problem with Firefox
== Description

I have various formatting issues:
a. When I open a msg from my web browser (Cablevision), the font is sooo small I need a magnifier to read it. How can I set the font to a size I can easily read?
b. When I forward msgs, the text gets all distorted and I need to clean it up (some symbols, lots of spaces between words). How can this be fixed?
c. When I want to tell someone about a website, I cannot type the URL in so that all they have to do is click on it. How can this be fixed?
d. When I open messages, the text opens in a small window and covers the "Show Images" button. Why?
== This happened
==
Every time Firefox opened
== Ever since I started using Firefox (a few months ago)

The text editor is the text area that you use on the webmail (Yahoo, Hotmail) website to create a new mail.
You can compare that with the ''Post new message'' text area that you use to create a new post on this forum.
Just above the text area that you use to enter the message text there is usually a button bar with buttons that allows some text formatting like Bold and Italic and can also include a button to make a clickable hyperlink.
Check the tooltip of each button by hovering with the mouse over each button.

How do you set the font color for a specific entire row inside a JTable?

How do you set the font color for a specific entire row inside a JTable?
I want to change the font color for only a couple of rows inside a JTable.
I've seen some ways to possibly do this with an individual cell.
Clarification on changing the font color in an individual cell would be helpful too if
there is no easy way to do this for a row.

hai,
Try out with this piece of code.Create your table and assign the renderer to each column in the table.
CellColorRenderer m_CellColorRenderer = new CellColorRenderer();
for(int i=0;i<your_JTable.getColumnCount();i++)
your_JTable.getColumnModel().getColumn(i).setCellRenderer(m_CellColorRenderer);
class CellColorRenderer extends JLabel implements TableCellRenderer
CellColorRenderer()
setOpaque(true);
setHorizontalAlignment(LEFT);
setVerticalAlignment(CENTER);
setBackground(Color.white);
setForeground(Color.black);
protected void setValue(Object value)
     setText((value == null) ? "" : value.toString());
public Component getTableCellRendererComponent(JTable table,Object value,boolean isSelected, boolean hasFocus, int row,int column)
     if(isSelected == true)
          setForeground(Color.red);
     else
          setForeground(Color.black);
     setValue(value);
     return this;

How do I set the default in Firefox to NOT auto update?

I am being asked to create an installer for Firefox that sets the default to NOT auto update. We have Standard users who cannot load software, so do not want them to be prompted. WE want to control when programs get updated, so need to set the default in Firefox to not prompt to update anything. How do I do this? What file can I change?

I've tried that, and then created my installer, but it defaults back to having auto update checked, or in the ON position. I want it to default to being OFF so any new installs or upgrades that I send out do not turn it back on.
We manage all computers here, and do not want users doing any updates.

How can I set the font size of a form field in the fdf file?

I need to dynamically set the font size of a field to accommodate text of varying length, automatic font size won't work in this case. It seems like this can be done in the FDF but I have tried several variants without success. Could someone help out with a real example of what the syntax in the fdf should look like.
I am using Acrobat Professional 8.1 but the created fdf will need to work with Reader also.

I think that the font size has to be set in the form itself, not the FDF.

How do I change the font and graphic size when using Firefox

I have recently switched from Windows to Mac. When resizing the window in Mac the font and graphic size do not follow -- they stay the same size and only more "white space" is created by increasing the window size. How do I get the graphics and fonts to adapt to the new window size or at least make the whole image bigger. I am using Firefox 3.6.12 and Mac OS10.6.5. Thanks for the help.

You can select to zoom the full page or only the text: View > Zoom > Zoom Text Only<br />
Firefox 3 can remember the zoom level site specific.

How do I set the font to look the same as a webpage?

The left most is illustrator font Arial, regular, 14px.
Middle is firefox 4 font Arial, 14px,
Right is Chrome Arial, 14px.
Illustrator's font looks thicker. Tried change the stroke, the auto-kern, but can't seem to get it thinner.
Chrome and Illustrator looks fine, but is it possible to make it look like in FF?

Font rednering is different in browsers. When in Illustrator CS5, you could test if a different Anti-aliasing setting might help. First "Show options" in the Character panel, then it's in the bottom right.

For me, the first answer here gave the most important element of information.
When Bob said "Does it occur to you that perhaps they just didn’t have time to get all of this in?"... Well yes, it sure did occur to me! And my reply to this would be: "What if they had taken a little more time and made sure they'd managed to have a function that is a little more complete before releasing the newer version?".
This has been my main issue with any company that releases products on an (almost) yearly basis: OBVIOUSLY they won't have time to complete everything!
Maybe, I'm only saying maybe, Adobe could have waited a liiiiitle bit longer and provided a finished product. Now of course, people will always have a new feature in mind, or a genius idea that they'd like to see happen in a program.
I also know that the high management would have been pushing for everything to be ready "on time", but then if you know you won't finish it, leave it out!
I was also very much looking forward to the new feature in InDesign as I have to make multiple copies of the same form translated into various languages.
And I had the very same problem as jahallaa, but with our French versions of these PDF forms.
So, yes, having the option to create the form in InDesign is a great for most of it. Fortunately, the font choice for our forms isn't all that important for me, in this specific case, so it wouldn't matter which font is used IF only it would understand accentuated letters properly.
Also, reading several times that "the Acrobat team didn't provide all the codes to the InDesign team" leaves me a little perplexed... If they are not going to get a complete code, then maybe, once more, they should wait until they get the complete thing. Now, of course, I don't know why the code would be provide incomplete, whether it's competition between the teams, security or plain weirdness but still... If you're going to implement a feature, make sure it fills in the major bullet points! If it doesn't, well give the marketing a rest and wait for the next release!
Now after saying all this... When our files are translated, they have to be converted into an IDML file to be compatible with our translation tool. I then have to reimport them into InDesign to finalise them, once translated.
Come to think of it, I'm pretty sure they will lose the forms function in the process, seen that this function didn't exist in CS 5 or 5.5 and that the IDML file loses any function that is not downcompatible.
Dammit!! I'll now have to fiddle around with 2 files and import layers and such...
Ah well... Sorry, rant's over!

Setting the 'Return-Path' of emails sent using the send email behaviour

Hi,
How do I set the 'Return-Path' of emails sent using the send email behaviour? I am having troubles because the emails sent from my page are being filtered out as spam when they should be coming through. the text is the following (it is the notification of an e-card to the recipient):
Dear Bart
We've decided this year to share our holiday greetings while also showing our commitment to protect the planet. Since it takes 24 mature trees to
produce one ton of greeting cards, this e-card shares our holiday wishes with both you and future generations.
Please follow the link below.
Best Wishes,
John
http://www.jdgcsfiles.com/_ecards/viewcard.php?ID_cnt=297
I suspect that it has something to do with the return path setting.
Can anyone help me on this one and get it through the spam filters of most email clients?!
Thanks,
NIk

Hi Nik,
so far the only "flagged as spam" reason I know of is, that ADDT curreently misses to insert the current date/time -- please try the fix mentioned in the thread http://www.adobeforums.com/webx/.3c034953/5 and see if it helps

How can I set a password for firefox so that everyone have to enter the password before executing firefox

My younger sister executed my firefox just at this afternoon(she originally use IE), and she saw something that can't be seen. How can I set a password for firefox so that everyone have to enter the password before executing firefox?

Also see this for an English version of Profile Password:
*Profile Password: http://nic-nac-project.de/~kaosmos/profilepassword-en.html#PPF
It is an extension to protect the profile with a password, but being an extension that protection can easily be bypassed by starting Firefox in [[Safe mode]].<br />
So do not rely on it.<br />
If you want to protect content then you have to use methods supported by the OS like a separate user account with a password or an encrypted file system.

How do I enlarge the font in messages received and sent? I have it set at "13", but it is very, very small on my screen. I can't seem to change the appearance of the tool bar even when I try to "customize".

How do I enlarge the font in messages received and sent? I have the font set at "13", but the appearance on my screen is very, very small. When I try to "customize the toolbar" to look like the tool bar above this message, I am unable to do so. Please advise. Thank you.

Thanks MartinR, yes the Toggle bars can be adjusted so that I can see all the tracks - just in the smallest setting - however this also creates a huge area of grey which serves no other purpose than to "use up screen space". If this is deliberate then there is nothing one can do - since presumably the additional profit made on screen sales is more important to Apple, than the combined annoyance to those working on a 13" laptop. Of course a 15" screen or even 17" screen may make this wastage less obvious. Please indicate that this is all incorrect and explain why it is important to have space waiting "for additional tracks", even if I have no intention of making additional tracks. If that is the answer then perhaps additional space to the left and right of the timeline would be useful in case I wish to make a 30 minute film, so that it could be placed there without having to drag anything. It may be that I am expecting software than can be tailor adjusted, each parameter to the desired level as in professional items and since this is a cheap consumer program it is not possible.
I bought Final Cut Pro for a lot of money (when it first appeared it was thousands and not just hundreds) but never used it since it was too complicated and tedious, but maybe there, this problem of screen wastage does not occurr, perhaps someone can advise! I could go back and reinstall it, but it was made for 10.2.8 and not 10.6.8 so it would not run on this macbook. I recently bought an old 15" TitaniumPowerbook (from 2005) and despite running at 1MHz the response time on it is "instantaneous" - amazing to not have the almost half second delay on many commands - graphics appear nearly immediately (just 5 milliseconds delay) and this makes working so much more enjoyable, not having the (350ms) stutter of 10.6.8 which we all get used to after our initial disappointment.
Thanks for your help!

How do I change the fonts on the main page.My fonts have recently changed without my doing anything. They are like 6 point instead of the 12 I am used to. Email font is now huge. Is this an ATT/Yahoo problem or Firefox. Safari fonts seem to be o.k.

How do I change the fonts on the home page? They recently shrank from 12 to very tiny..(6 pt?). I did nothing to change them, but after the event tried to change them using "preferences-Fonts"which had no effect. ATT seems to have made a change in their email. The fonts in the email are now huge (18 pt?). This could be an ATT/Yahoo problem with Mac, although Safari seems to be working o. k.

Jim, extensions are also add-ons. Add-ons include extensions, themes and plugins.
Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you need to make sure it's not coming from one of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe mode] and select ''Disable all add-ons''. If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes this article] for information about troubleshooting extensions and theme. You can troubleshoot plugins the same way.
If you want support for one of your add-ons, you'll need to contact its author.
