How does Safari handle fonts? Because the fonts looks different

Hi,
I "developped" (please don't laugh) a webpage in Firefox.
http://test.patrickeischen.com
Safari however changes the font, font-size and line-height which is not what I want. Does Safari handle the fonts different that other browsers?
Patrick

I think the problem is with an error in this line in the CSS:
font: small/1.75em , Tahoma, "Trebuchet MS", Verdana, sans-serif;
There should not be a comma after "small/1.75em". That line should read:
font: small/1.75em Tahoma, "Trebuchet MS", Verdana, sans-serif;
Other web browsers are probably being forgiving about that error and interpreting that line of CSS as it is intended, while Safari is balking at that error and ignoring everything after the comma that doesn't belong.
I noticed that error when I was skimming through the CSS looking for your font declarations. But you can also find it by running the W3C CSS validator, a very handy tool when working on web sites, along with the W3C HTML validator. While these won't in themselves help you understand everything there is to know about web coding errors and browser display differences, using them to minimize or eliminate your coding errors often helps narrow down other problems as well.

  • How can I get the example fonts from the font file Programmatically?

    Hi Friends,
             I am doing one mac application for the fonts management. Now I would like to Preview the Font in the NSTextView.  This is my coding for the textView.
        NSTextView *text3=[[NSTextView alloc]initWithFrame:NSMakeRect(250,500,450,30)];
        [text3 setString:@"ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ"];
        [text3 setFont:[NSFont fontWithName:@"GangofThree" size:40]];
        [[[self window] contentView] addSubview:text3];
    Because I have set the string in English for the NSTextView I can't able to view the other languages characters.I got the character set of the font file by using this code.
       NSCharacterSet *characterset = (NSCharacterSet *) CTFontCopyCharacterSet (fontRef);
    This Font is greek font.Now My question is how can I able to get the greek characters from this characterset.

    Your text string would certainly have to be in Greek itself, not Latin.  No normal font just translates Latin letters to Greek, they use other codepoints reserved for Greek letters.

  • The change to a different font was not done because the chosen font and the font encodings in the do

    Hi,
    I created a PDF from a Word document that used Cambria font, and when I select it in Acrobat to try to change the font I get "The change to a different font was not done because the chosen font and the font encodings in the document differ and could not be resolved"
    How can I change the font and why is it preventing me from doing so?
    Thanks,
    Juan

    Juan,
    No, Acrobat is not a word processor.
    More to the point Acrobat lets one "work" PDF and PDF is not a file format designed as a word processing, editing, formating, or page layout file format.
    PDF is, essentially, a "final destination" format.
    What it is is described in the ISO Standard for  PDF (ISO 32000-1).
    Be well...

  • How I can disable unnecessary fonts from the font menu?

    How I can disable unnecessary fonts from the font menu?
    I'm so frustrated to always browse the kilometer-long font menu. There are Chinese, Arabic, Thai, Japan etc. fonts. I will never need these fonts!
    The platform is the iMac and Maverics. Illustrator is a version CS6. All software is the latest version of.
    I get off some of these fonts using Apple's Font Book, but still there will be unnecessary Chinese, Arabic, Thai, Japan etc. fonts.
    I also have Suitcase Fusion 4, but that doesn't help in this case because I can't disable system fonts etc. I also tried the "Monolingual" software. Monolingual is a software for removing unnecessary language resources from OS X. But still I see many foreign language fonts in font menu.

    I could do with an answer to this question too
    The fonts I don't want on my system are these (all Adobe covert additions as far as I can tell):

    Hello Pete from another old guy,
    It sounds like you have an older iMac than the 2006 and newer model this forum covers. The problem is that, in 2006, Apple changed from PowerPC to Intel processors and third-party developers soon stopped making new software for the older processors. That's why you cannot upgrade Flash player--the current version requires a Mac the "2006 and later" processor.
    However, not having a current version of FlashPlayer should not affect your ability to download. If you try downloading, do you get an error message or does something else happen?
    Do you have another web browser like FireFox or Camino on your computer?
    but would love to get my MAC back up to date and running right.
    Well, "running right" may be doable but "up to date" may not be. You are already at as high a Mac OS level that a pre-2006 Mac can use.  We need to pin down your variant to make recommendations. From your Apple menu at the left end of the menu bar, do "About this Mac":
    That brings up this window:
    Let us know what yours say for "processor." The two choices are "PowerPC" as in the example, or "Intel." If you  have an Intel processor, you have more options available.
    Awaiting your report,
    Allan

    How do I save a PDF ready for print. I have a problem with the fonts. The fonts are blurry after printing. There is a trick in saving PDF.

    Hi el_giclee,
    Important to note from the beginning is that when you create your Photoshop document make sure you chose 300 Pixels/inch as your resolution.
    I'm interested in seeing your Save Adobe PDF dialog box after you choose to save the PDF.
    Could you post a screenshot of this dialog box with the Compression menu selected on the left side?
    It's a good idea to select High Quality Print or Press Quality in the Adobe PDF Preset menu at the top of this box. It will automatically select the best default settings for a printed piece.

  • I recently uploaded OSX 10.6.7 and ever since then, my Boris titler in FCP does not work with all the fonts, notably Avenir. It actually crashes FCP now. It was fine with the previous version. What's up Apple?

    I recently uploaded OSX 10.6.7 and ever since then, my Boris titler in FCP does not work with all the fonts, notably Avenir. It actually crashes FCP now. It was fine with the previous version. What's up Apple?

    I know what your'e going through, Gary.   OSX 10.6.7 is an absolute disaster.   Since I upgraded, I've had problems in FCP, Logic, Garageband, even issue dealing with peripheral hardware like external monitors.
    Before 10.6.7 my system was running fine.
    I've brought this up with Apple repeatedly.   They smile and shrug.   They've been helpful resolving the issues, but none of them has been easy to solve.  I have spent days, dealing back and forth with tech support, sending logs, etc., before solutions have been found.  
    I wish I could give you an answer to your question.   My only guess is that Apple has totally dropped the ball on this one.   In the future they should provide a disclaimer when they offer an upgrade.  Something like:   "Caution: all of your software may not function after this upgrade. But go ahead, you'll feel cool that your OS is the latest thing."
    As someone who has been with Apple for close to 25 years, I'm disturbed by what appears to be an increasing sloppiness in their work.   This is especially disturbing when you depend upon their system to make your living.
    Good luck.

    Was the message sent from Microsoft Outlook? When you embed an image in a message in Outlook (at least up to version 2003), it creates a hidden attachment for the image and then inserts a "cid" reference to it. If the attachment gets stripped for any reason then the "cid" reference is useless: Outlook does not store the original URL or path to the image.
    Edit: By the way, which webmail site has this problem?

  • Unable to download music - error message reads "Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because the protocol (wmms) isn't associated with any program."

    I purchased a song to download from Walmart.com and received the error message when I tried to download the song; "Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because the protocol (wmms) isn't associated with any program." I've never had a problem before. I paid for this download & I can't even access it.

    Does the Walmart site offer a plugin or program (Walmart MP3 Music Downloads) to handle that protocol?<br />

    On Windows a protocol need to be registered by a program that supports that protocol.

    Protocol error usually indicates that the very leftmost part of the URL is not recognized.
    So http://, ftp://, rtsp://, usually work.
    ableton:// would need to be added by some software somewhere...
