How to find out font does not have international support

Hi,
OS X claims itself Unicode supporting system - that is true however only a minor portion of native or preinstalled fonts support CE accented characters such as ľĺščťďžýáíéŕňäúô.
The question is: how can I find out which font has international support and which doesn't?
The problem is, that when you use font without CE support, it replaces problematic characters with the closes match (e.g. instead of Geneva you will get Arial for certain CE characters). This is sometimes very hard to spot and you often find this out in prints where every now and then a single character is printed in different font/size or missing altogether. And attempt to print document usually escalates the problem.
Windows supports CE and many other alphabets in its standard English distribution with ALL its core fonts. It is a SHAME that Apple plainly ignores half of the planet for so many years (I understand, however, that half of the planet does not equal half of the market.).

Well, regarding iWork I would like to use the fonts
that are bundled and used for the templates because
they are pretty. I don't want to spent hundreds of
extra dollars on buying crippled CE versions.
I think you misunderstood me. One can't even use CE fonts with OS X (except in a couple of obsolete apps) and I would never recommend that anyone acquire or install them. I meant that you could change the default fonts in the templates to other Unicode fonts that do include the Latin Extended-A block needed for CE languages.
I assume you're aware that Apple OS X apps can also use all the MS and Adobe and other Unicode fonts made for Windows that do contain Latin Extended-A, so you are not confined to Apple's fonts?
I grant that it would be better if all the Unicode fonts supplied with OS X, iWork, and iLife included more character ranges, but the current state for CE scripts is at least a whole lot better than for the Arabic or Devanagari scripts, where there is only one font available and Windows fonts usually cannot substitute.

  • Macintosh does not have a Supported Superdrive

    I have a 9 month old Macintosh IBook G4 using Mac OS 10.3.9
    I am trying to burn my first DVD using the IDVD program. When I open the IDVD program I get a message:
    Your Macintosh does not have a supported SuperDrive. Thus I can not burn a DVD.
    Get anyone give me some tips about what this means? Seams like I basically have a new Mac (within 1 year) so I should be able to burn DVDs some way.
    Thanks.
    John Ellis

    Some iBooks have a drive which will read and write CDs but only read DVDs. Check your specification either in the documentation or by pulling down the apple menu and clicking on about this mac and examining the hardware.

  • UITableView section header: How to find out font size and background color

    Hi, does anyone know how to find out the default font and default background color(or image?) used in the section header of a tableView
    I'd like to create a view with the same background color/image and use the same font (with different color) used by the section header

    I don't think there are any getter methods for a section header. But I wouldn't be surprised if the header was an object. You might try setting some header text to a key string and searching recursively through all the subviews for objects that respond to a text message. It might help to also print the description of objects that don't respond to text. I haven't tried this yet, but will let you know if I get any useful results.
    I guess another approach would be to use viewForHeaderInSection to set the font and color to whatever you wanted. Then you wouldn't have any problem matching it.

    Can anyone help me please?
    Thanks/Razin

    Thans for pointing out the error in my post. It seems, being rather busy in this period, I'm starting to wear out as I missed the fact the overlaps would be returned twice. :(
    I had in mind a more general case where as single row overlaps with more than one other row.
    The OP's data contained one to one overlaps only and it seems no generalized approach was needed.

  • Mingw32-sdl_image does not have jpg support

    Hello,
    I'm trying to cross-compile some basic SDL programs to Windows. I've tried installing mingw32-sdl_image from the AUR multiple times, but when I compile my programs for Windows and then run them under wine they give the error (via IMG_GetError): "Unsupported image format". I'm pretty sure I'm linking everything correctly. Here's my makefile:
    CFLAGS = -Wall -pedantic -Werror
    LFLAGS = -lSDL -lSDL_image
    OBJS = init.o input.o graphics.o main.o
    PROG = tutorial02.exe
    CXX = i486-mingw32-gcc
    # top-level rule to create the program.
    all: $(PROG)
    # compiling other source files.
    %.o: src/%.c src/%.h src/defs.h
    $(CXX) $(CFLAGS) -c -s $<
    # linking the program.
    $(PROG): $(OBJS)
    $(CXX) $(OBJS) -o $(PROG) $(LFLAGS)
    # cleaning everything that can be automatically recreated with "make".
    clean:
    rm $(PROG) *.o
    Compiling this for Linux with a similar makefile (i486-mingw32-gcc is changed to gcc) seems to make an executable that can display the image fine. I figure the problem is that mingw32-sdl_image doesn't have jpg support built in or somehow it isn't linked when it's configured and compiled. Does anyone know how to fix this?
    Thanks in advance,
    Isaac

    ./configure for mingw32-sdl_image
    ./configure --host=i486-mingw32 \
    --prefix=/usr/i486-mingw32 \
    --enable-static \
    --enable-shared \
    --disable-png-shared \
    --disable-webp --disable-webp-shared
    ./configure in extra/sdl_image :
    ./configure --prefix=/usr --disable-static
    You could try changing the mingw32-sdl_image pkgbuild, or contact the maintainer to find out why they disabled png and webp .

  • How to find out if your iPads have a virus or a Trojan

    I Have an iPad Air the first one Model -MD790J/A, Version - 8.1.2 (12B440), CAPACITY - 64GB, AVAILABLE - 8.3 GB.
    MY AIR IS LAGING AND EVERY GAME I PLAY IS GETTING SLOWER EVEN JUST TO LOAD THINGS, SOMETIMES WHEN IM WRITING A NOTE SOMETIMES THE LETTER DOESNT RESPOND SO I TYPE IT AGAIN THEN 5 OF THEM COME AT ONCE I DELETE AND END UP DELETING HALF OF WHAT I WROTE I DONT KNOW IF IS THE GAME APP THAT MIGHT HAVE GIVEN ME A VIRUS OR A TROJAN,
    I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IF ANYONE CAN HELP OR TELL ME WHATS GOING ON WITH MY IPADS

    I'm not aware of any viruses for iPads (unless you've jailbroken your iPad).
    What have you tried to see if they improve things ? Have you tried :
    - closing apps via the iPad's taskbar : iOS: Force an app to close.
    - if having problems with Safari then try clearing its history and data : Settings > Safari
    - soft-reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
    - backing up (and copying any purchases over to your computer's iTunes library via File > Devices > Transfer Purchases) and restoring
    - resetting back to factory defaults (after copying off purchases and any documents, photos etc that you want to keep) and then resyncing
